Abstract
To investigate their anti-inflammatory mechanism,the effects of berberine(Ber.),chlorogenic acid(Ch.A.) and baicalin(Bai) on the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1(ICAM-1) in rat intestinal mucosa microvascular endothelial cells(RIMMVECs) challeged by lipopolysaccharide(LPS) were analyzed by immunocytochemical staining,and gray scale and statistical analysis were performed.The results showed that RIMMVECs constitutively express ICAM-1 in low level and LPS significantly increased it,while LPS-induced strong expression of ICAM-1 in RIMMVECs was suppressed by Ber,Ch.A and Bai.The results indicated that the anti-inflammatory role of Ber,Ch.A and Bai is related to their downregulating effect on LPS-mediated ICAM-1 expression, which provide data for clarifying their mechanism.
