(-)-Fenchone is a bicyclic monoterpene present in the plant species Mill, L. (tuja), and (lavender). These plants have therapeutic value in the treatment of intestinal disorders.
To evaluate intestinal anti-inflammatory activity in an acute and chronic trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis model in rats.
Intestinal anti-inflammatory effects were assessed using the acute and chronic TNBS-induced colitis model in rats. The mechanisms were evaluated from colonic tissue fragments of the acute and chronic models.
Oral administration of the (-)-fenchone (37.5-300 mg/kg) acute phase or (150 mg/kg) ( < 0.001) chronic phase reduced the macroscopic lesion score, ulcerative area, intestinal weight/length ratio, and diarrheal index in TNBS-treated animals. At a dose of 150 mg/kg, the acute and chronic phase decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) ( < 0.001), restored glutathione (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) ( < 0.001), decreased immunomarking for factor nuclear kappa B (NF-κB) and levels of interleukin (IL)-1 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and maintained IL-10 and TGF-β basal levels. Furthermore, increased immunostaining for zonula occludens 1 (ZO-1) was observed.
(-)-fenchone has intestinal anti-inflammatory activity related to cytoprotection of the intestinal barrier, as well as antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects.
(-)-小茴香酮是一种双环单萜,存在于植物物种北美香柏、 (杜松)和薰衣草中。这些植物在治疗肠道疾病方面具有治疗价值。
在大鼠急性和慢性三硝基苯磺酸(TNBS)诱导的结肠炎模型中评估肠道抗炎活性。
使用大鼠急性和慢性TNBS诱导的结肠炎模型评估肠道抗炎作用。从急性和慢性模型的结肠组织片段评估其作用机制。
口服(-)-小茴香酮(37.5 - 300 mg/kg)急性期或(150 mg/kg)(P < 0.001)慢性期可降低TNBS处理动物的宏观病变评分、溃疡面积、肠重/长度比和腹泻指数。在150 mg/kg剂量下,急性期和慢性期均可降低丙二醛(MDA)和髓过氧化物酶(MPO)(P < 0.001),恢复谷胱甘肽(GSH)水平和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)(P < 0.001),降低核因子κB(NF-κB)的免疫标记以及白细胞介素(IL)-1和肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)的水平,并维持IL-10和转化生长因子β(TGF-β)的基础水平。此外,还观察到紧密连接蛋白1(ZO-1)的免疫染色增加。
(-)-小茴香酮具有与肠道屏障细胞保护相关的肠道抗炎活性,以及抗氧化和免疫调节作用。
