In Vitro
-
Cell Line:murine macrophage RAW264.7 cells (with LPS stimulation)
-
Concentration:62.5 μM, 125 μM, 250 μM, 500 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Did not reduce cell viability compared to the untreated control group.

Cell Line:murine macrophage RAW264.7 cells (with LPS stimulation)
-
Concentration:62.5 μM, 125 μM, 250 μM, 500 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Slightly inhibited LPS-induced TNF-α increase at all tested concentrations.
Reduced IL-1β levels to 81.2 pg/mL (62.5 μM), 69.6 pg/mL (125 μM), 26.3 pg/mL (250 μM), and 13.2 pg/mL (500 μM) in a dose-dependent manner.

-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Reduced iNOS protein levels to 28.2% of the LPS-alone group at 250 μM and 52.0% at 500 μM in a dose-dependent manner.
Reduced COX-2 protein levels to 35.4% of the LPS-alone group at 250 μM and 39.0% at 500 μM in a dose-dependent manner.\nReduced LPS-induced TLR4 protein levels in a dose-dependent manner.
Restored TLR4 levels to near basal levels at 500 μM.
In Vivo
-
Animal Model:BALB/c nu/nu (athymic nude, female, 4 weeks old)[2]
-
Dosage:1 mg/kg; 5 mg/kg; 30 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p.; three times per week; 30 days
-
Result:Significantly inhibited tumor growth compared to controls (p < 0.05).
Showed more profound inhibitory effects at 1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg doses than at 30 mg/kg dose.
Reduced tumor weights in all treated groups relative to controls.
Significantly induced p53 protein and upregulated p27/Kip1 protein (3.51-fold relative to control), and downregulated cyclins D1 (0.21-fold relative to control), D3 (0.45-fold relative to control), and A (1.02-fold relative to control) in 1 mg/kg treated tumors.
Did not alter p53 protein, less strongly upregulated p27/Kip1 (1.74-fold relative to control), downregulated cyclins D1 (0.35-fold relative to control), D3 (0.88-fold relative to control), and A (0.63-fold relative to control), and slightly inhibited cyclin B protein levels in 30 mg/kg treated tumors.
Caused no gross toxicity (body weight changes, general appearance, organ effects) in any treated group.
