7-Methoxyisoflavone suppresses vascular endothelial inflammation by inhibiting the expression of endothelial adhesion molecules.
European journal of pharmacology(2022)
摘要
Endothelial cells (ECs) are vital regulators of inflammatory processes, there is the potential for inhibition of EC inflammation to be a therapeutic target in chronic inflammatory diseases. This study aimed to investigate the effect of 7-methoxyisoflavone (7-Mif) on endothelial inflammation. Our results showed that 7-Mif have no cytotoxicity on HUVECs. Pretreatment with 5 μM, 10 μM and 50 μM 7-Mif significantly reduced IL-1β-induced ICAM-1 (28.1% ± 4.1%, 25.9 ± 2.5% and 32.0% ± 3.2%, respectively) and VCAM-1 (48.0% ± 5.6%, 40.1 ± 3.1% and 39.6% ± 3.1%, respectively) mRNA expression. And pretreatment with 10 μM and 50 μM 7-Mif significantly reduced IL-1β-induced ICAM-1 (45.1% ± 4.4% and 33.6 ± 4.4%, respectively) and VCAM-1 (53.0% ± 3.7% and 53.7 ± 5.1%, respectively) protein levels. Furthermore, pretreatment with 50 μM 7-Mif inhibited monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion (50.2% ± 4.2%). Mechanistically, our results showed that 7-Mif reversed IL-1β-induced NF-κB activation and p65 translocation to the nucleus, therefore inhibiting endothelial cell inflammation. In addition, we confirmed that 7-Mif 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg reduced LPS-induced ICAM-1 (47.3% ± 1.3% and 39.0% ± 3.2%, respectively) and VCAM-1 (56.5 ± 2.8% and 47.8 ± 4.3%, respectively) expression and attenuated inflammatory injury in mice. In conclusion, we showed the inhibitory effect of 7-Mif on endothelial inflammation by suppressing the expression of endothelial adhesion molecules and monocyte adhesion. Our data illustrated that 7-Mif could positively regulate the process of endothelial inflammation.
