Broussonin E is a phenolic compound and shows anti-inflammatory activity. Broussonin E can suppress inflammation by modulating macrophages activation statevia inhibiting the ERK and p38 MAPK and enhancing JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway. Broussonin E can be used for the research of inflammation-related diseases such as atherosclerosis
In Vitro
Broussonin E (20 μM, 3 h) inhibits the LPS ( Lipopolysaccharides , HY-D1056)-stimulated phosphorylation of ERK and p38 MAPK. Broussonin E can activate janus kinase (JAK) 2, signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3. Broussonin E (0-20 μM, 3 h) can suppress the LPS-induced pro-inflammatory production in RAW264.7 cells, involving TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, COX-2 and iNOS. Broussonin E enhances the expressions of anti-inflammatory mediators such as IL-10, CD206 and arginase-1 (Arg-1) in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. Western Blot AnalysisCell Line: RAW264.7 cells Concentration: 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 Incubation Time: 3 h Result: Inhibited p-ERK and p-p38 MAPK, but not p-JNK MAPK expression in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells.
