“…LNT can reduce oxidative stress-induced apoptosis, and also reduce the expression of pro-inflammatory factors such as TNF-α, IL-8, IL-2, IL-6, IL-22, thereby reducing NF-kB activation, which proves its great potential in the treatment of COVID-19 [31]. Similarly, another study found that LNT can inhibit the overexpression of cytokine storms of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-6 in influenza A viral by modulating the TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway [32] More interestingly, a randomized controlled human experiment showed that LNT combined with budesonide reduced endogenous anti-inflammatory factor adiponectin IL-17, D-dimer acute severe chronic obstructive pulmonary in patients [33]. Moreover, an animal experiment found that LNT could inhibit oxidative stress in bovine mammary epithelial cells and also reduce the expression of inflammatory factor protein by inhibiting NF-kB and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), suggesting its great potential in the treatment of mastitis [34].…”
