[ Applications ]
The plasma glucose levels were significantly lowered in normoglycemic mice treated with
euscaphic acid compared to mice treated with 0.5% CMC-Na solution only. Moreover, the
dosage of 50 mg/kg exerted a significant (P<0.05) hypoglycemic effect in alloxan-diabetic
mice after orally administration.
Euscaphic acid (EA) concentration-dependently reduced the production of nitric oxide
(NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-1β
(IL-1β) induced by LPS in RAW 264.7 macgophages. Consistent with these data,
expression levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)
protein and iNOS, COX-2, TNF-α, and IL-1β mRNA were inhibited by EA in a
concentration-dependent manner. In addition, EA attenuated LPS-induced DNA binding
and transcriptional activity of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), which was accompanied by
a parallel reduction of degradation and phosphorylation of inhibitory kappa Bα (IκBα) and
consequently by decreased nuclear translocation of p65 subunit of NF-κB. Pretreatment
with EA significantly inhibited the LPS-induced phosphorylation of IκB kinase β (IKKβ),
p38, and JNK, whereas the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was unaffected. Furthermore, EA
interfered with the LPS-induced clustering of TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6)
with interleukin receptor associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) and transforming growth
factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1). Taken together, these results suggest that EA inhibits
LPS-induced inflammatory responses by interference with the clustering of TRAF6 with
IRAK1 and TAK1, resulting in blocking the activation of IKK and MAPKs signal
transduction to downregulate NF-κB activations.
EA induces death by activation of caspase-3, dependent apoptotic pathway.
