Emodin suppresses lipopolysaccharide‐induced pro‐inflammatory responses and NF‐κB activation by disrupting lipid rafts in CD14‐negative endothelial cells

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Emodin [1,3, has been reported to exhibit vascular anti-inflammatory properties. However, the corresponding mechanisms are not well understood. The present study was designed to explore the molecular target(s) of emodin in modifying lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-associated signal transduction pathways in endothelial cells. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACHCultured primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs; passages 3-5) were pre-incubated with emodin (1-50 mg·mL KEY RESULTSEmodin inhibited,… Show more

“…Lipid rafts have also been reported to be essential for NF-kB activation induced by a diverse set of stimuli, such as interleukin (IL)-1b, CD40L, and lipopolysaccharides (LPS; refs. 8,9,12). Collectively, these findings indicate that lipid rafts play important roles in the activation of proximal NF-kB signaling.…”
