: This study evaluated the in vitro anti-adipogenic and anti-inflammatory properties of black cumin ( L.) seed extract (BCS extract) as a potential candidate for developing herbal formulations targeting metabolic disorders. We evaluated the BCS extract by assessing its 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrohydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, levels of prostaglandin E (PGE) and nitric oxide (NO), and mRNA expression levels of key pro-inflammatory mediators. We also quantified the phosphorylation of nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signaling molecules. To assess anti-adipogenic effects, we used differentiated 3T3-L1 cells and BCS extract in doses from 10 to 100 μg/mL. We also determined mRNA levels of key adipogenic genes, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/BEPα), adipocyte protein 2 (aP2), lipoprotein lipase (LPL), fatty acid synthase (FAS), and sterol-regulated element-binding protein 1c (SREBP-1c) using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). This study showed a concentration-dependent DPPH radical scavenging activity and no toxicity at concentrations up to 30 μg/mL in Raw264.7 cells. BCS extract showed an IC of 328.77 ± 20.52 μg/mL. Notably, pre-treatment with BCS extract (30 μg/mL) significantly enhanced cell viability in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated Raw264.7 cells. BCS extract treatment effectively inhibited LPS-induced production of PGE and NO, as well as the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), inducible NO synthase (iNOS), interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6, possibly by limiting the phosphorylation of p38, p65, inhibitory κBα (I-κBα), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). It also significantly attenuated lipid accumulation and key adipogenic genes in 3T3-L1 cells. This study highlights the in vitro anti-adipogenic and anti-inflammatory potential of BCS extract, underscoring its potential as a promising candidate for managing metabolic disorders.
: 本研究评估了黑孜然(L.)种子提取物(BCS 提取物)的体外抗脂肪生成和抗炎特性,作为开发针对代谢紊乱的草药制剂的潜在候选物。我们通过评估其 2,2-二苯基-1-苦肼基(DPPH)自由基清除活性、前列腺素 E(PGE)和一氧化氮(NO)水平以及关键促炎介质的 mRNA 表达水平来评估 BCS 提取物。我们还量化了核因子 kappa 轻链增强子的磷酸化活化 B 细胞(NF-κB)和丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号分子。为了评估抗脂肪生成作用,我们使用分化的 3T3-L1 细胞和 10 至 100μg/ml 剂量的 BCS 提取物。我们还使用实时定量聚合酶链反应(qPCR)测定了关键脂肪生成基因的 mRNA 水平,包括过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体 γ(PPARγ)、CCAAT/增强子结合蛋白 α(C/BEPα)、脂肪细胞蛋白 2(aP2)、脂蛋白脂肪酶(LPL)、脂肪酸合酶(FAS)和固醇调节元件结合蛋白 1c(SREBP-1c)。本研究表明,在 Raw264.7 细胞中,BCS 提取物在高达 30μg/ml 的浓度下具有浓度依赖性的 DPPH 自由基清除活性且无毒性。BCS 提取物的 IC 为 328.77±20.52μg/ml。值得注意的是,BCS 提取物(30μg/ml)预处理可显著提高脂多糖(LPS)处理的 Raw264.7 细胞的细胞活力。BCS 提取物处理可有效抑制 LPS 诱导的 PGE 和 NO 的产生,以及单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(MCP-1)、肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)、环氧合酶-2(COX-2)、诱导型一氧化氮合酶(iNOS)、白细胞介素(IL)-1β和 IL-6 的表达,可能是通过限制 p38、p65、抑制κBα(I-κBα)和 c-Jun N-末端激酶(JNK)的磷酸化。它还显著减轻了 3T3-L1 细胞中的脂质积累和关键脂肪生成基因。本研究强调了 BCS 提取物的体外抗脂肪生成和抗炎潜力,突出了其作为管理代谢紊乱有希望的候选物的潜力。
