99% methanol extract (100 mg/kg) was administered orally for 7 consecutive days to mice, after modeling. Quercetin was found as one of the active ingredients. | acute colitis | inhibit | Mice were orally administered with 3% dextran sulphate sodium (w/v) in fresh tap water for seven days. | Inhibits the signal pathways of Src/Syk/NF-κB and IRAK/AP-1/CREB. | Yang et al. 2012 |
Water extract (125, 250, and 500 mg/kg) was administered orally for 7 consecutive days to rats, after modeling. | intestinal inflammation | inhibit | Anus administered rats for 10mg 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid dissolved in 0.25mL 50% ethanol (v/v) via a 2mm diameter Teflon cannula inserted 8cm into the anus. | 500mg/kg water extract treatment significantly ameliorated the activity of MPO and improved the GSH content. There was a downregulation of the TNBS-induced increase in the activity of iNOS and levels of COX-2, TNF-α, and IL-1β while the protein expression of NF-κB was significantly unregulated. | Zhang et al. 2018 |
N-butanol portion (50, 100, 200 mg/kg) was administered orally for 3 consecutive days to mice before modeling. | sepsis | inhibit | Mice were injected intra-peritoneally with 17 mg/kg (body weight) of E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS). | N-butanol portions might contribute to its enhancement in antioxidant capacity, its inhibitory effects may be mediated by inhibiting the phosphorylation of JNK, ERK and c-JUN in MAPKs signaling pathways. | Tao et al. 2016 |
n-butanol portion (50, 100, 150 mg/kg) was administered orally for 5 consecutive days to mice before modeling. | ear swelling in mice | inhibit | Inflammation was induced by applying 0.05 mL of xylene to both sides of the left ear of mice. | N-butanol portions inhibited ear swelling in mice. | Guan et al. 2021 |
Acetic ether portion (FEA) (40 and 80 μg/mL). | RAW 264.7 cell inflammation model in vitro | relieve | Different doses of acetic ether portion were applied to RAW 264.7 inflammatory response induced by LPS in vitro. and porcine pseudorabies virus |
The anti-inflammatory effects of FEA were associated with inhibition of iNOS and COX-2, inhibition of phosphorylation of MAPKs signaling pathway, and increase of expression of phosphorylated AMPK. | Liu et al. 2021 |
Acetic ether portion (FEA) (40 and 80 μg/mL). | RAW 264.7 cell inflammation model in vitro | relieve | Different doses of FEA were applied to RAW 264.7 inflammatory response induced by Pseudorabies virus in vitro. | Acetic ether portion decreased the secretion of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and MCP, increased the secretion of IFN-γ, and regulated the secretion of IL-10. | Ren et al. 2021 |
Acetic ether part of flavone (FEA) and n-butanol part of flavone (FNB) (20, 40 and 80 μg/mL). | RAW 264.7 cell inflammation model in vitro | inhibit | In vitro model of inflammation induced by LPS stimulation in RAW 264.7 cells. | FEA and FNB could decrease the release of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 induced by LPS. The anti-inflammatory effect may be related to the anti-oxidative pathway. | Luo, Tao et al. 2017 |
Acetic ether part of flavone (FEA) (50, 100, 200 mg/kg) were administered orally for 3 consecutive days to mice before modeling. | Endotoxemia | relieve | Mice were injected intra-peritoneally with 17 mg/kg 0.2mL. | The levels of MDA, MPO in intestinal tissue and ACP in serum were decreased in all FEA dosage groups, while the levels of T-AOC, T-SOD, GSH-Px in liver tissue and GSH, LZM in serum were increased in middle and high FEA dosage groups. The levels of TNF-α in serum, intestinal tissue and liver tissue were significantly decreased in all FEA dosage groups, and the mRNA expressions of TNF-α, IFN-γ and IL-2 in lung were significantly decreased in all FEA dosage groups. | Gu, Tao, Wu, et al. 2018 |
n-butanol part of flavone (FNB) (50, 100, 200 mg/kg) were administered orally for 3 consecutive days to mice before modeling. | Endotoxemia | relieve | Mice were injected intra-peritoneally with 17 mg/kg 0.2mL. | FNB can reduce the release of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8 induced by LPS stimulation, and reduce the expression level of TNF-α, IFN-α, IFN-γ and IL-2mRNA in lung by enhancing the activity of antioxidant defense enzyme system in mouse liver. | Gu, Tao, Yang, et al. 2018 |
