ABSTRACT
Through searching for antineuroinflammatory metabolites from Nardostachys jatamansi extracts, nardostachin was revealed to exert antineuroinflammatory effects against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)induced overproduction of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 in BV2 and rat primary microglial cells. Furthermore, nardostachin inhibited the production of inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase2 as well as proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)1ß, IL6, IL12 and tumor necrosis factorα in LPSstimulated BV2 and rat primary microglial cells. In a mechanistic study, nardostachin exhibited inhibitory activity on the nuclear factor (NF)κB signaling pathway in LPSstimulated BV2 and rat primary microglial cells by repressing IκBα phosphorylation and blocking NFκB translocation. Furthermore, nardostachin exhibited inhibitory effects on LPSinduced phosphorylation of cJun Nterminal kinase (JNK) mitogenactivated protein kinase (MAPK). Additionally, nardostachin repressed protein expression of Tolllike receptor 4 (TLR4) and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) in LPSinduced BV2 and rat primary microglial cells. These results suggested that nardostachin exerts antineuroinflammatory effects on LPSinduced BV2 and rat primary microglial cells by suppressing the TLR4MyD88NFκB and JNK MAPK pathways.
