OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanisms of anti-inflammatory effect of matrine (Mat), its effects on mouse splenocyte proliferation, and release of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) from mouse peritoneal macrophages. METHODS Splenocyte proliferation was assayed by [3H] TdR incorporation. IL-1 and IL-6 activities were measured by thymocyte proliferation assay and B9 cell proliferation MTT colorimetric method, respectively. RESULTS Mat (125-500 mg.L-1) obviously inhibited concanavalin A (Con A, 5 mg.L-1)- and lipopolysaccarides (LPS, 10 mg.L-1)-induced splenocyte proliferation and LPS-induced release of IL-1 and IL-6 from mouse peritoneal macrophages. CONCLUSIONS Mat inhibited splenocyte proliferation and release of IL-1 and IL-6 in vitro.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007375 Interleukin-1 A soluble factor produced by MONOCYTES; MACROPHAGES, and other cells which activates T-lymphocytes and potentiates their response to mitogens or antigens. Interleukin-1 is a general term refers to either of the two distinct proteins, INTERLEUKIN-1ALPHA and INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. The biological effects of IL-1 include the ability to replace macrophage requirements for T-cell activation.

D000470 Alkaloids Organic nitrogenous bases. Many alkaloids of medical importance occur in the animal and vegetable kingdoms, and some have been synthesized. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) Alkaloid,Plant Alkaloid,Plant Alkaloids,Alkaloid, Plant,Alkaloids, Plant
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
