Trans-Chalcone reduces MSU-induced IL-1β maturation in vitro. (A) To assess the effect of trans-Chalcone on NF-κB activation, BMDMs were pre-treated with 0.1–3 μM before 500 ng/mL of LPS [i.e., before priming, panel (A) and after 3 h were secondarily stimulated with MSU (450 μg/ml, i.e., activation]. (B) To assess the direct effect of trans-Chalcone on inflammasome activation, LPS-primed BMDMs were treated with 0.1–3 μM 30 min before MSU stimulation (i.e., after priming and before activation). Results are expressed as mean ± SEM, data represent the mean of 6 wells per group per experiment with three independent experiments. (p < 0.05 vs. control group; #p < 0.05 vs. vehicle, one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post-test).
