Cheongseoikki-tang (CIT, Korean), also called Qingshu Yiqi decoction () and Seisho-ekki-to (Japanese), is well known as an effective traditional combination of herbs for treating cardiovascular diseases. This study was to research its effects on bone marrow-derived mast cell (BMMC)-mediated allergy and inflammation mechanisms.
In this study, the biological effect of Cheongseoikki-tang ethanol extract (CITE) was evaluated, focusing on its effects on the production of allergic mediators by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) plus calcium ionophore A23187 (A23187)-stimulated BMMCs. These allergic mediators included interleukin-6 (IL-6), prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), leukotriene C4 (LTC4), and β-hexosaminidase (β-hex).
Our data revealed that CITE inhibited the production of IL-6, PGD2, LTC4, and β-hex induced by PMA plus A23187 (P<0.05).
These findings indicate that CITE has the potential for use in the treatment of allergy.
清暑益气汤(CIT,韩国),也被称为清气益气汤()和十全大补汤(日本),作为治疗心血管疾病的有效传统草药组合而闻名。本研究旨在研究其对骨髓来源的肥大细胞(BMMC)介导的过敏和炎症机制的影响。
在这项研究中,评估了清暑益气汤乙醇提取物(CITE)的生物学效应,重点研究其对佛波醇 12-肉豆蔻酸 13-乙酸酯(PMA)加钙离子载体 A23187(A23187)刺激的 BMMC 产生过敏介质的影响。这些过敏介质包括白细胞介素 6(IL-6)、前列腺素 D2(PGD2)、白三烯 C4(LTC4)和β-己糖胺酶(β-hex)。
我们的数据显示,CITE 抑制了 PMA 加 A23187 诱导的 IL-6、PGD2、LTC4 和β-hex 的产生(P<0.05)。
这些发现表明 CITE 具有治疗过敏的潜力。
