NO and Cytokine Production due to Crysochroa fulgidissima
Abstract
, , Crysochroa fulgidissima (Bidan-beole, Spanish fly) is traditionally used as a crude drug and insecticide in the East Asia and Korea, respectively. This study investigated the effect of ethanol extract of C. fulgidissima on the NO production activity. The C fulgidissima extract was a potent inducer of NO production in CP AE cells and a stimulator of endothelial nitric oxide synthase in a dose-dependent manner. This study also evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity of this extract by determining the level ofICAM-l, VCAM-l, and prostaglandin E2 from HUVEC cells. Although C. fulgidissima extract was a potent inducer of NO production in the CP AE cells, it showed weak inhibitory effects on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production in HUVEC cells. HPLC and GC-MS analysis of the ethanol extract of C. fulgidissima revealed the presence of cantharidin.
