Abstract
Objective To study the effect of emodin on mRNA expression and extracellular release of high mobility group box 1(HMGB1)in endotoxin-stimulated macrophages.Methods The changes of HMGB1 and TNF-α levels in the culture medium and expression of HMGB1 mRNA were investigated after Emodin(5、20、50 μmol/L)was incubated with lipopolysaccharide-stimulated cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages.Results Emodin(50 μmol/L)markedly suppressed the release of HMGB1 and TNF-α,and expression of HMGB1 mRNA from lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages(P﹤0.01).Conclusion Emodin confers inhibition onto extracellular release of HMGB1 and expression of HMGB1 mRNA from endotoxin-stimulated macrophages.
