RESUMEN
Inflammation derived from macrophages activation leads to various diseases. Synthetic modifications of resveratrol have been shown to have better anti-inflammatory activities. In this study, croton oil-induced mouse ear edema and lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages were used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of WL-09-5, a derivative of resveratrol. Furthermore, the activation of NF-κB was determined. Results showed that WL-09-5 significantly reduced the croton oil-induced ear edema, scavenged NO and ROS production, and reduced the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1ß. Furthermore, WL-09-5 may significantly inhibit the translocation of NF-κB in macrophage cells stimulated by LPS in a dose-dependent manner, which is a potent mechanism of its anti-inflammatory effects. In conclusion, WL-09-5 is an underlying candidate for inflammatory diseases that need further investigations.

Twelve hydrolyzable tannins were obtained from the twigs of Myricaria bracteata, including two new hellinoyl-type dimers, bracteatinins D1 (1) and D2 (2); a new hellinoyl-type trimer, bracteatinin T1 (3); two known monomers, nilotinin M4 (4) and 1,3-di-O-galloyl-4,6-O-(aS)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-ß-d-glucose (5); six known dimers, tamarixinin A (6), nilotinin D8 (7), hirtellins A (10), B (9), and E (8), and isohirtellin C (11); and a known trimer, hirtellin T3 (12). The structures of the tannins were elucidated by spectroscopic data analysis and comparisons to known tannins. All compounds were evaluated as free radical scavengers using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and hydroxy radicals and compared to the activity of BHT and Trolox. Compound 6 showed a significant anti-inflammatory effect on croton oil-induced ear edema in mice (200 mg/kg, inhibition rate 69.8%) and on collagen-induced arthritis in DBA/1 mice (20 mg/kg, inhibition rate 46.0% at day 57).
