Mast cells participate in allergy and inflammation by secreting inflammatory mediators such as histamine and proinflammatory
cytokines. Flavonoids are naturally occurring molecules with antioxidant, cytoprotective, and antiinflammatory actions. However,
effect of flavonoids on the release of histamine and proinflammatory mediator, and their comparative mechanism of action in
mast cells were not well defined. Here, we compared the effect of six flavonoids (astragalin, fisetin, kaempferol, myricetin,
quercetin, and rutin) on the mast cell-mediated allergic inflammation. Fisetin, kaempferol, myricetin, quercetin, and rutin
inhibited IgE or phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate and calcium ionophore A23187 (PMACI)-mediated histamine release in RBL-2H3
cells. These five flavonoids also inhibited elevation of intracellular calcium. Gene expressions and secretion of proinflammatory
cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 were assessed in PMACI-stimulated human
mast cells (HMC-1). Fisetin, quercetin, and rutin decreased gene expression and production of all the proinflammatory cytokines
after PMACI stimulation. Myricetin attenuated TNF-α and IL-6 but not IL-1β and IL-8. Fisetin, myricetin, and rutin suppressed
activation of NF-κB indicated by inhibition of nuclear translocation of NF-κB, NF-κB/DNA binding, and NF-κB-dependent gene
reporter assay. The pharmacological actions of these flavonoids suggest their potential activity for treatment of allergic
inflammatory diseases through the down-regulation of mast cell activation. 相似文献

Fisetin (3,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxyflavone) exhibits anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative effects through a mechanism that is poorly understood. Although fisetin has been cocrystalized with cyclin-dependent kinase 6 and inhibits its activity, this inhibition is not sufficient to explain various activities assigned to this flavonol. Because of the critical role of the NF-kappaB pathway in regulation of inflammation and proliferation of tumor cells, we postulated that fisetin modulates this pathway. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of fisetin on NF-kappaB and NF-kappaB-regulated gene products in vitro. We found that among nine different flavones tested, fisetin was potent in suppressing tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced NF-kappaB activation. Fisetin also suppressed the NF-kappaB activation induced by various inflammatory agents and carcinogens, and it blocked the phosphorylation and degradation of IkappaBalpha by inhibiting IkappaBalpha (IKK) activation, which in turn led to suppression of the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of p65. NF-kappaB-dependent reporter gene expression was also suppressed by fisetin, as was NF-kappaB reporter activity induced by TNFR1, TRADD, TRAF2, NIK, and IKK but not that induced by p65 transfection. Fisetin also inhibited TNF-induced TAK1 and receptor-interacting protein activation, events that lie upstream of IKK activation. The expression of NF-kappaB-regulated gene products involved in antiapoptosis (cIAP-1/2, Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, XIAP, Survivin, and TRAF1), proliferation (cyclin D1, c-Myc, COX-2), invasion (ICAM-1 and MMP-9), and angiogenesis (vascular endothelial growth factor) were also down-regulated by fisetin. This correlated with potentiation of apoptosis induced by TNF, doxorubicin, and cisplatin. Thus, overall, our results indicate that fisetin mediates antitumor and anti-inflammatory effects through modulation of NF-kappaB pathways. 相似文献

Mast cell-mediated allergic inflammation is involved in many diseases such as asthma and sinusitis. Mast cells induce synthesis and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8 with immune regulatory properties. In the present study, we investigate the effect an unspecified aqueous extract from leaves of Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. (Rosaceae) (LEJL) on the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and its possible mechanisms of action in human mast cells (HMC-1). LEJL dose-dependently inhibited phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and calcium ionophore A23187 (PMACI)-induced gene expression and secretion of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8. LEJL attenuated PMACI-induced activation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB, and specifically blocked activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) but not that of c-jun N-terminal kinase. The inhibitory effect of LEJL on the pro-inflammatory cytokines was likely NF-κB, p38 MAPK, and ERK dependent. Our in vitro studies provide evidence that LEJL might contribute to the treatment of mast cell-derived allergic inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

AST2017-01 mainly consists of Rumex crispus and -Cordyceps militaris and has been widely consumed as an herbal medicine or functional food in Korea. Here we investigated the influences of AST2017-01 and its active component, chrysophanol on human mast cell (HMC-1 cell) and human keratinocyte (HaCaT cell)-mediated inflammatory reactions. Pretreatment with AST2017-01 or chrysophanol suppressed intracellular calcium levels and histamine release in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and calcium ionophore A23187 (PMACI)-treated HMC-1 cells. Levels of phosphorylated-mitogen-activated protein kinase increased by PMACI stimulation were reduced by AST2017-01 or chrysophanol pretreatment. Protein levels of IκB kinaseβ and receptor-interacting protein 2 in PMACI-treated HMC-1 cells were decreased by AST2017-01 or chrysophanol pretreatment. Pretreatment with AST2017-01 or chrysophanol significantly blocked PMACI-induced activation of caspase-1 and nuclear factor-κB. In addition, pretreatment with AST2017-01 or chrysophanol significantly decreased the PMACI-induced levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) on HMC-1 cells. In activated HaCaT cells, pretreatment with AST2017-01 or chrysophanol significantly reduced production of TSLP and activation of caspase-1. In conclusion, these findings indicate that chrysophanol is an active component of AST2017-01 and AST2017-01 acts as a novel potent anti-inflammatory herbal medicine or functional food. 相似文献

Epidemiological studies demonstrated that obesity, which is a high-risk factor for development of hyperglycemia-associated metabolic syndromes, is associated with prevalence/incidence of allergic diseases. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms of the relationship between hyperglycemia and allergy, we examined the effect of high glucose on the activation of human mast cell lines, HMC-1 and LAD2. HMC-1 and LAD2 cells were cultured in low (5.5 mM) and high (25 mM)-glucose Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM). High-glucose medium increased the intracellular reactive oxygen species levels in HMC-1 and LAD2 cells after 2 days of incubation; in HMC-1 cells, the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-13 were increased significantly. The β-hexosaminidase release rates were not significantly different between LAD2 cells cultured in both media; however, the intracellular and extracellular activities of β-hexosaminidase in cells were significantly higher in high-glucose than in low-glucose media. High glucose increased the secretion of TNFα by unstimulated HMC-1 cells and IgE crosslinking-stimulated LAD2 cells. High glucose increased the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), which regulate the expression of TNFα and other inflammatory cytokines, in both HMC-1 and LAD2 cells. Thus, high glucose increased the expression of proinflammatory and proallergic cytokines, the secretion of TNFα, and β-hexosaminidase activity in human mast cells. Our result suggests that hyperglycemia promotes the activation of human mast cells associated with allergy and inflammation under unstimulated and stimulated conditions. 相似文献

Xanthone is a phenolic compound found in a few higher plant families; it has a variety of biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the activity of xanthone in allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) remain to be explored. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the regulatory effects of xanthone in ACD in human keratinocytes (HaCaT cell), and human mast cell line (HMC-1 cell) in vitro and in an experimental murine model. The results demonstrated that treatment with xanthone reduced the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and expression of chemokines thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) and macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC) in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interferon (IFN)-γ-stimulated HaCaT cells. Xanthone also suppressed the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and allergic mediators in phorbol myristate acetate/A23187 calcium ionophore (PMACI)-stimulated HMC-1 cells. Xanthone significantly suppressed the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and activation of caspase-1 signaling pathway in vitro model. Additionally, xanthone administration alleviated 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced atopic dermatitis like-skin lesion by reducing the serum levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE), histamine, and pro-inflammatory cytokines and suppressing MAPKs phosphorylation. Xanthone administration also inhibited mortality due to compound 48/80-induced anaphylactic shock and suppressed the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction mediated by IgE. Collectively, these results suggest that xanthone has a potential for use in the treatment of allergic inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Suppressive effects of flavonoid fisetin on lipopolysaccharide-induced microglial activation and neurotoxicity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Microglia are innate immune cells in the central nervous system. Activation of microglia plays an important role in the processes of several neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and HIV dementia. Activated microglia can produce various proinflammatory cytokines and nitric oxide (NO), which may exert neurotoxic effects. Inhibition of microglia activation may alleviate neurodegeneration under these conditions. To search for the novel therapeutic agents against neuroinflammatory diseases, we have screened a series of flavonoid compounds using a cell-based assay. Our studies showed that fisetin markedly suppressed the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, NO, and prostaglandin (PG) E2 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV-2 microglia cells or primary microglia cultures. Fisetin also inhibited the gene expression of TNF-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, cyclooxygenase (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) at both mRNA and protein levels. Fisetin significantly suppressed I kappa B degradation, nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B, and phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPKs) in the LPS-stimulated BV-2 microglia cells. In addition, fisetin reduced cytotoxicity of LPS-stimulated microglia toward B35 neuroblastoma cells in a co-culture system. These results indicate that fisetin has a strong anti-inflammatory activity in brain microglia, and could be a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of neuroinflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Resveratrol is a phytoalexin polyphenolic compound found in various plants, including grapes, berries, and peanuts. Recently, studies have documented various health benefits of resveratrol including cardiovascular and cancer-chemopreventive properties. The aim of the present study was to demonstrate the effects of resveratrol on the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, as well as to elucidate its mechanism of action in the human mast cell line (HMC-1). Cells were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) plus A23187 in the presence or absence of resveratrol. To study the possible effects of resveratrol, ELISA, RT-PCR, real-time RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, fluorescence, and luciferase activity assays were used in this study. Resveratrol significantly inhibited the PMA plus A23187-induction of inflammatory cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8. Moreover, resveratrol attenuated cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression and intracellular Ca2+ levels. In activated HMC-1 cells, phosphorylation of extra-signal response kinase (ERK) 1/2 decreased after treatment with resveratrol. Resveratrol inhibited PMA plus A23187-induced nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation, IκB degradation, and luciferase activity. Resveratrol suppressed the expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and COX-2 through a decrease in the intracellular levels of Ca2+and ERK 1/2, as well as activation of NF-κB. These results indicated that resveratrol exerted a regulatory effect on inflammatory reactions mediated by mast cells. 相似文献

The dried roots of Sophora flavescens Aiton (SFA) has been used in traditional medicine for treatment of inflammation, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, diarrhea, and asthma. In the present study, we investigated the effect of SFA on the inflammatory allergic reaction using human mast cell-1 (HMC-1). SFA (200 mg/kg) inhibited the mast cell-mediated passive cutaneous anaphylaxis reaction in vivo and the release of histamine from rat peritoneal mast cells by compound 48/80. In addition, the expression levels of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and calcium ionophore A23187-stimulated TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 were also decreased by SFA treatment. In molecular mechanism level, this study showed that SFA inhibited the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor (NF) κB through inhibition of the phosphorylation and degradation of IκB-α, which is an inhibitor of NF κB. Moreover, SFA suppressed PMA plus A23187-induced phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 and c-jun N-terminal kinase. The inhibited induction of NF κB promoter by SFA was determined using luciferase activity. These results suggest that SFA could be used as a treatment for mast cell-derived allergic inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Persistent activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) has been associated with the development of asthma. Fisetin (3,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxyflavone), a naturally occurring bioactive flavonol, has been shown to inhibit NF-κB activity. We hypothesized that fisetin may attenuate allergic asthma via negative regulation of the NF-κB activity. Female BALB/c mice sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin developed airway inflammation. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was assessed for total and differential cell counts, and cytokine and chemokine levels. Lung tissues were examined for cell infiltration and mucus hypersecretion, and the expression of inflammatory biomarkers. Airway hyperresponsiveness was monitored by direct airway resistance analysis. Fisetin dose-dependently inhibited ovalbumin-induced increases in total cell count, eosinophil count, and IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 levels recovered in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. It attenuated ovalbumin-induced lung tissue eosinophilia and airway mucus production, mRNA expression of adhesion molecules, chitinase, IL-17, IL-33, Muc5ac and inducible nitric oxide synthase in lung tissues, and airway hyperresponsiveness to methacholine. Fisetin blocked NF-κB subunit p65 nuclear translocation and DNA-binding activity in the nuclear extracts from lung tissues of ovalbumin-challenged mice. In normal human bronchial epithelial cells, fisetin repressed TNF-α-induced NF-κB-dependent reporter gene expression. Our findings implicate a potential therapeutic value of fisetin in the treatment of asthma through negative regulation of NF-κB pathway. 相似文献

IL-31 and IL-33 are cytokines, which are expressed in many inflammatory and pathological disorders, thus suggesting an IL-31/IL-33 axis interaction in pathological diseases. Luteolin from natural products is known for its anti-inflammatory activities associated with the regulation of inflammatory signaling pathways. Here, we investigated the effects of luteolin in the regulation of IL-33-stimulated production and secretion of IL-31 in HMC-1.2 mast cells. Human mast cells (HMC-1.2) were treated with luteolin and stimulated with IL-33. Real-time PCR was used to measure IL-31 mRNA expression. Western blot and immunofluorescence assays were used to measure IL-31 expression. ELISA techniques were used to measure IL-31 secretion and NF-κB-DNA-binding activities. The results revealed that luteolin inhibited the expression of IL-31 in IL-33-stimulated HMC-1.2 cells at the mRNA and protein levels. Also, Luteolin inhibited the secretion of IL-31 into the cell culture media of the IL-33-stimulated HMC-1.2 cells. Further findings demonstrated that luteolin inhibited the activation of ERK, JNK, p38, and NF-κB p65 in the IL-33-stimulated HMC-1.2 cells. In addition, luteolin also prevented the nuclear translocation and binding of p65 to its DNA-binding site. Based on the results, luteolin may be considered as a potential therapeutic or functional food agent for the prevention and/or treatment of IL-31 and IL-33-related diseases. 相似文献

Context: Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an active component of honeybee propolis, is known to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other beneficial medicinal properties. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its anti-allergic effects in mast cells are unknown.Objective: The purpose of the present study was to examine whether CAPE modulates the immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated local allergic reaction in animals, as well as to elucidate the effects of CAPE on mast cells in vitro.Materials and methods: To investigate the bioactive potential of CAPE (10 or 20?µM), HMC-1 cells were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate plus calcium ionophore A23187 (PMACI) for 24?h in the presence or absence of CAPE. To study the pharmacological effects of CAPE, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs), and fluorescence assays were used.Results: CAPE (10?mg/kg) inhibited local IgE-mediated allergic reactions (0.164 versus 0.065 O.D.) in a mouse model. Additionally, CAPE (20?µM) attenuated PMACI-stimulated histamine release (3146.42 versus 2564.83?pg/ml) and the production of inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1β (4.775 versus 0.713?pg/ml, IC50?=?6.67?µM), IL-6 (4771.5 versus 449.1?pg/ml, IC50?=?5.25?µM), and IL-8 (5991.7 versus 2213.1?pg/ml, IC50?=?9.95?µM) in HMC-1 cells. In activated HMC-1 cells, pretreatment with CAPE decreased the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase. In addition, CAPE inhibited PMACI-induced nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation by suppressing IκBα phosphorylation and its degradation.Discussion and conclusion: Our results indicated that CAPE can modulate mast cell-mediated allergic disease. 相似文献

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a multifactorial chronic skin disorder that is increasing in prevalence globally. In NC/Nga mice, repetitive epicutaneous applications of 2-4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) induces AD-like clinical symptoms. Bioflanonol fisetin (3,7,3′,4′-tetrahydroxyflavone) is a dietary component found in plants, fruits and vegetables. Fisetin has various physiological effects that include anti-oxidation, anti-angiogenesis, anti-carcinogenesis and anti-inflammation. In this study, we investigated whether fisetin relieves AD-like clinical symptoms induced by repeated DNFB treatment in NC/Nga mice. Fisetin significantly inhibited infiltration of inflammatory cells including eosinophils, mast cells and CD4+ T and CD8+ T cells, and suppressed the expressions of cytokines and chemokines associated with dermal infiltrates in AD-like skin lesions. Total serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels and the ratio of phospho-NF-κB p65 to total NF-κB p65 were markedly reduced by fisetin. Fisetin also reduced the production of interferon-gamma and interleukin-4 by activated CD4+ T cells in a dose-dependent manner, whereas the anti-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-10 was increased. These results implicate fisetin as a potential therapeutic for AD. 相似文献

Mast cells play important roles in allergic and inflammatory diseases. Efforts to better understand human mast cell activation and develop novel inhibitory agents have been hampered by the lack of suitable human mast cell lines. The HMC-1 mast cell line has been extensively used, but lacks native expression of the human high-affinity IgE receptor FcεRI limiting its applications. We have stably transfected HMC-1 cells with the IgE-binding α-subunit of FcεRI to generate HMCα cells that are antigen-responsive. We have used flow cytometry, cell signaling assays, pharmacological pathway inhibitors and cell functional assays to characterize the properties of HMCα cells. IgE/antigen responses were compared with those of the adenosine receptor agonist NECA. Surface expression of FcεRI in HMCα cells was demonstrated and was enhanced by prior sensitization with IgE. Activation of HMCα cells with IgE/antigen did not produce degranulation, but did lead to release of numerous cytokines. Whilst there was no measurable increase of intracellular Ca(2+) or marked general changes in protein tyrosine phosphorylation, IgE/antigen stimulation of HMCα cells enhanced phosphorylation of p38(MAPK) and Erk. Inhibitors of these pathways, as well as the src kinase inhibitor PP2, attenuated IgE/antigen-induced cytokine release. In summary, we have generated and characterized HMCα cells and show that they are a useful and relevant human mast cell model to examine FcεRI stabilization, signaling and mediator release. We envisage that HMCα cells will have utility in understanding the importance of mast cells in human allergic disease and in assessing the activity of novel anti-allergic compounds. 相似文献

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an aggressive inflammatory disease in which cytokines/chemokines are thought to recruit leukocytes and induce angiogenesis. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of flavonol-rich residual layer of hexane fraction from Rhus verniciflua Stokes (RVHxR) and its major compound fisetin on inflammatory cytokine/chemokine production and angiogenic factor in IL-1β-stimulated RA fibroblast-like synovial cells (FLS) and inflammatory in vivo models. Flavonol-rich RVHxR and its major compound fisetin significantly inhibited IL-1β-induced FLS proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Flavonol-rich RVHxR and fisetin significantly decreased IL-1β-induced inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, interleukin (IL)-6)/chemokines (IL-8, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) of RA FLS. Flavonol-rich RVHxR dose dependently diminished the phophorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) and phospho-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK), and its down regulation induced by RVHxR at nontoxic concentrations, while activated the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in IL-1β-stimulated RA FLS. The p38 specific inhibitor SB203580 cotreatment with RVHxR effectively increased the expression of VEGF and blocked the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in IL-1β-stimulated RA FLS, confirming a critical role of p38 MAPK pathway in angiogenesis inhibition. In experimental inflammation-related models, flavonol-rich RVHxR and fisetin have shown significant anti-inflammatory activities on vascular permeability, leukocyte migration and cellular immunity. Also, flavonol-rich RVHxR and fisetin treatments significantly reduced the incidence and severity of collagen-induced arthritis model. These results suggest that RVHxR and its major compound fisetin have shown potent suppressive effects on some inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and angiogenic factor in IL-1β-stimulated RA FLS and inflammatory in vivo models. We believe that flavonol-rich RVHxR is a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment of inflammatory and angiogenesis related diseases. 相似文献
