Helicobacter pylori infection leads to gastroduodenal inflammation, peptic ulceration, gastric lymphoma and gastric cancer. Certain herbal remedies have been used to treat gastric disease. In this study, we examined the anti-inflammatory effect of San-Huang-Xie-Xin-Tang (SHXT) and its main component baicalin on Helicobacter pylori-infected human gastric epithelial AGS cell. AGS cells were treated with Helicobacter pylori at a bacterium/cell ratio of 300:1. mRNA expression and protein levels were determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis and western blot analysis, respectively. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) level and the translocation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and enzyme-linked DNA-protein interaction assay (ELDIA), respectively. Nitric oxide production was measured by Griess reagent. We found that SHXT and baicalin inhibited Helicobacter pylori-induced cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enhancement and IkappaBalpha degradation in both mRNA and protein levels. SHXT and baicalin also inhibited Helicobacter pylori-induced inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and IL-8 mRNA expression, and decreased NO and IL-8 production. Furthermore, SHXT and baicalin inhibited nuclear translocation of p50 subunit of NF-kappaB in Helicobacter pylori-infected AGS cells. Based on the above findings, SHXT and baicalin might exert anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective effects in Helicobacter pylori-induced gastric inflammation.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D004847 Epithelial Cells Cells that line the inner and outer surfaces of the body by forming cellular layers (EPITHELIUM) or masses. Epithelial cells lining the SKIN; the MOUTH; the NOSE; and the ANAL CANAL derive from ectoderm; those lining the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM and the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM derive from endoderm; others (CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and LYMPHATIC SYSTEM) derive from mesoderm. Epithelial cells can be classified mainly by cell shape and function into squamous, glandular and transitional epithelial cells.

D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.
