| 2 | Short-term interval combined chemoembolization and radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM:To investigate hepatic function after combined transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) and radiofrequency ablation(RFA) with a short-term interval(0-2 d).METHODS:A total of 115 patients with compensated liver cirrhosis underwent RFA combined with TACE at a time-interval of 0-2 d for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)<5.0 cm.There were 21 patients who received further hepatic directed treatment altering liver function within 12 mo after the combined therapy for HCC-recurrence,and were excluded.The remaining94 patients who survived without HCC-recurrence were included in this retrospective study.RESULTS:At 1 mo after treatment,Child-Pugh scores(CPs)remained unchanged in 89 of 94 patients(94.7%),and transiently increased by one-point in 5 patients(5.3%).However,the score returned to baseline score at 3 mo and was maintained until 6 mo in all patients.The baseline CPs of 8 or more was identified as a factor for transient rise of CPs after the treatment(CPs 8/9 vs5/6/7;21.4%vs 2.5%;P=0.022).At 12 mo followup,CPs was unchanged in 90 patients(95.7%),and increased by one-point in 4 patients(4.3%).The rise of CPs at 12 mo was not statistically associated with the initial transient rise of CPs.There were procedure-related complications in 3 patients(3.2%),but the complications were resolved by medical and interventional treatments without hepatic functional sequelae.CONCLUSION:The combined TACE and RFA with an interval of 0-2 d are safe for the management of HCC<5 cm in cirrhotic patients. | Won Hyeok Choe Young Jun Kim Hee Sun Park Sang Woo Park Jeong Han Kim So Young Kwon | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,35: | 13 |
| 3 | Management of entecavir-resistant chronic hepatitis B with adefovir-based combination therapies显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the long-term efficacy adefovir(ADV)-based combination therapies in entecavir(ETV)-resistant chronic hepatitis B(CHB) patients. METHODS: F i fty CHB pat ient s wi t h genotypic resistance to ETV at 13 medical centers in South Korea were included for the analysis. All the patients received rescue therapy with the combination of ADV plus ETV(ADV/ETV,n = 23) or ADV plus lamivudine(LMV)(ADV/LMV,n = 27) for more than 12 mo. Patients were monitored at least every 3-4 mo during ADV-based combination therapy by clinical examination as well as biochemical and virological assessments. Hepatitis B virus(HBV) DNA levels were measured by realtime PCR and logarithmically transformed for analysis. Cumulative rates of virologic response(VR; HBV DNA < 20 IU/m L) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method,and the difference was determined by a logrank test. Multivariate logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models were used to identify independent risk factors significantly associated with short-term and long-term VR,respectively.RESULTS: Baseline median HBV DNA levels were 5.53(2.81-7.63) log10 IU/m L. The most commonly observed ETV genotypic mutation sites were rt184 and rt202. Patients were treated for a median of 27(12-45) mo. Overall,cumulative VR rates at 6,12,24,and 36 mo were 26%,36%,45%,and 68%,respectively. Patients treated with the ADV/ETV combination showed higher cumulative VR rates(35%,43%,65%,and 76%,respectively) than those with the ADV/LAM combination(18%,30%,30%,and 62%,respectively; P = 0.048). In the multivariate analysis,low baseline HBV DNA levels(< 5.2 log10 IU/m L) and initial virologic response at 3 mo(IVR-3; HBV DNA < 3.3 log10 IU/m L after 3 mo) were independent predictive factors for VR. Patients with favorable predictors achieved cumulative VR rates up to 90% at 36 mo. During the same period,the cumulative incidence of virologic breakthrough was as low as 6% in patients with the both favorable predictors.CONCLUSION: If tenofovir is not available,ADV/ETV combination could be considered in ETV-resistant patients with low HBV DNA titers,and may becontinued if IVR-3 is achieved. | Hyoung Su Kim Hyung Joon Yim Myoung Kuk Jang Ji Won Park Sang Jun Suh Yeon Seok Seo Ji Hoon Kim Bo Hyun Kim Sang Jong Park Sae Hwan Lee Sang Gyune Kim Young Seok Kim Jung Il Lee Jin-Woo Lee In Hee Kim Tae Yeob Kim Jin-Wook Kim Sook-Hyang Jeong Young Kul Jung Hana Park Seong Gyu Hwang | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,38: | 13 |

| 5 | Pretreated quercetin protects gerbil hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons from transient cerebral ischemic injury by increasing the expression of antioxidant enzymes显示文摘Quercetin(QE; 3,5,7,3′,4′-pentahydroxyflavone), a well-known flavonoid, has been shown to prevent against neurodegenerative disorders and ischemic insults. However, few studies are reported regarding the neuroprotective mechanisms of QE after ischemic insults. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of QE on ischemic injury and the expression of antioxidant enzymes in the hippocampal CA1 region of gerbils subjected to 5 minutes of transient cerebral ischemia. QE was pre-treated once daily for 15 days before ischemia. Pretreatment with QE protected hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons from ischemic injury, which was confirmed by neuronal nuclear antigen immunohistochemistry and Fluoro-Jade B histofluorescence staining. In addition, pretreatment with QE significantly increased the expression levels of endogenous antioxidant enzymes Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase, Mn superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase in the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons of animals with ischemic injury. These findings demonstrate that pretreated QE displayed strong neuroprotective effects against transient cerebral ischemia by increasing the expression of antioxidant enzymes. | Bai Hui Chen Joon Ha Park Ji Hyeon Ahn Jeong Hwi Cho In Hye Kim Jae Chul Lee Moo-Ho Won Choong-Hyun Lee In Koo Hwang Jong-Dai Kim Il Jun Kang Jun Hwi Cho Bich Na Shin Yang Hee Kim Yun Lyul Lee Seung Min Park | 2017 | Neural Regeneration Research2017,12,2: | 9 |
| 6 | MRI of gastric carcinoma:Results of T and N-staging in an in vitro study显示文摘AIM:To determine the accuracy of 1.5-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of gastric wall invasion and perigastric lymph node metastasis in gastric adenocarcinoma.METHODS: Twenty resected gastric specimens containing 20 tumors were studied with a 1.5-T MR system using a commercial head surface coil. MR scanning was performed with a T1 weighted image (TR/TE = 500/20), and a T2 weighted image (TR/TE=2500/90). MR findings were compared with pathologic findings.RESULTS: A T1-weighted image demonstrated three layers in the normal gastric wall. All of the gastric tumors were well demonstrated by lesions and location. In a MRI findings of gastric wall invasion, there was 1 case of T1, 7 of T2, 11 of T3. Pathologic results of resected specimens included 3 cases of pT1, 4 of pT2, and 12 of pT3. The accuracy of T staging with MRI was 74% (14 of 19). MRI findings of lymph node me-tastasis included 6 cases of N0, 13 cases of N1. The accuracy of the N staging with MRI was 47% (9 of 19).CONCLUSION: MRI has a high diagnostic accuracy in the evaluation of the T staging of gastric cancer in vitro and thus potentially enables preoperative histo-pathologic staging. | Il Young Kim Sang Won Kim Hyeong Cheol Shin Moon Soo Lee Dong Jun Jeong Chang Jin Kim Young Tong Kim | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,32: | 9 |
| 7 | Three-Tesla magnetic resonance elastography for hepatic fibrosis:Comparison with diffusion-weighted imaging and gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the feasibility of 3-Tesla magnetic resonance elastography(MRE)for hepatic fibrosis and to compare that with diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI)and gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance(MR)imaging.METHODS:Forty-two patients were included in the study.On MRE,mean stiffness values were measured on the elastograms in kilopascals.The apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)of the liver was measured using DWI.On gadoxetic acid enhanced MR,the contrast enhancement index(CEI)was calculated as signal intensity(SI)post/SIpre,where SIpost is liver-to-muscle SI ratio on hepatobiliary phase images and SIpre is that on nonenhanced images.Correlation between aspartate aminotransferase to the platelet ratio index(APRI)and three MR parameters was assessed.Each MR parameter was compared between a hepatic fibrosis(HF)group and non-hepatic fibrosis(n HF)group.RESULTS:Liver stiffness showed strong positive correlation with APRI[Spearman correlation coeffiecient(r)=0.773,P<0.0001],while ADC and CEI showed weak or prominent negative correlation(r=-0.28 and-0.321,respectively).In the HF group,only liver stiffness showed strong correlation with APRI(r=0.731,P<0.0001).Liver stiffness,ADC,and APRI were significantly different between the HF group and n HF group.CONCLUSION:MRE at 3-Tesla could be a feasible method for the assessment of hepatic fibrosis. | Hee Sun Park Young Jun Kim Mi Hye Yu Won Hyeok Choe Sung Il Jung Hae Jeong Jeon | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,46: | 9 |
| 8 | Iodized oil uptake assessment with cone-beam CT in chemoembolization of small hepatocellular carcinomas显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the utility of assessing iodized oil uptake with cone-beam computed tomography(CT)in transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)for small he-patocellular carcinoma(HCC).METHODS:Cone-beam CT provided by a biplane flat-panel detector angiography suite was performed on eighteen patients(sixteen men and two women;41-76 years;mean age,58.9 years)directly after TACE for small HCC(26 nodules under 30 mm;mean diam-eter,11.9 mm;range,5-28 mm).The pre-procedural locations of the tumors were evaluated using tripha-sic multi-detector row helical computed tomography(MDCT).The tumor locations on MDCT and the iodized oil uptake by the tumors were analyzed on cone-beam CT and on spot image directly after the procedures.RESULTS:All lesions on preprocedural MDCT were de-tected using iodized oil uptake in the lesions on cone-beam CT(sensitivity 100%,26/26).Spot image depictediodized oil uptake in 22 of the lesions(sensitivity 85%).The degree of iodized oil uptake was overestimated(9%,2/22)or underestimated(14%,3/22)on spot image in f ive nodules compared with that of cone-beam CT.CONCLUSION:Cone-beam CT is a useful and conve-nient tool for assessing the iodized oil uptake of small hepatic tumors(< 3 cm)directly after TACE. | Ung Bae Jeon Jun Woo Lee Ki Seok Choo Chang Won Kim Suk Kim Tae Hong Lee Yeon Joo Jeong Dae Hwan Kang | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,46: | 8 |

| 10 | Assessing significant fibrosis using imaging-based elastography in chronic hepatitis B patients: Pilot study显示文摘BACKGROUND Accurate detection of significant fibrosis(fibrosis stage 2 or higher on the METAVIR scale)is important especially for chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients with high viral loads but with normal or mildly elevated alanine aminotransferase(ALT)levels because the presence of significant fibrosis is accepted as the indication for antiviral treatment.Liver biopsy is the reference standard for diagnosing significant fibrosis,but it is an invasive procedure.Consequently,noninvasive imaging-based measurements,such as magnetic resonance elastography(MRE)or two-dimensional shear-wave elastography(2DSWE),have been proposed for the quantitative assessment of liver fibrosis.AIM To explore MRE and 2D-SWE to identify fibrosis stage,and to compare their performance with that of serum-based indices.METHODS The study enrolled 63 treatment-na?ve CHB patients with high viral loads but with normal or mildly elevated ALT levels who underwent liver biopsy before a decision was made to initiate antiviral therapy.MRE and 2D-SWE were performed,and serum-based indices,such as FIB-4 and aspartate transaminase to platelet ratio index(APRI),were calculated.The diagnostic performances of MRE,2D-SWE,FIB-4,and APRI for assessing significant fibrosis(≥F2)and cirrhosis(F4)were evaluated with liver histology as the reference standard,using receiver operating characteristic analyses.RESULTS The liver fibrosis stage was F0/F1 in 19,F2 in 14,F3 in 14,and F4 in 16 patients,respectively.MRE significantly discriminated F2 from F0/1(P=0.022),whereas 2D-SWE showed a broad overlap in distinguishing those stages.MRE showed a higher correlation coefficient value with fibrosis stage than 2D-SWE with fibrosis stage(0.869 vs 0.649,Spearman test;P<0.001).Multivariate linear regression analyses showed that fibrosis stage was the only factor affecting the values of MRE(P<0.001),whereas body mass index(P=0.042)and fibrosis stage(P<0.001)were independent factors affecting 2D-SWE values.MRE performance for diagnosing significant fibrosis was better[area under the curve(AUC)=0.906,positive predictive value(PPV)97.3%,negative predictive value(NPV)69.2%]than that of FIB-4(AUC=0.697,P=0.002)and APRI(AUC=0.717,P=0.010),whereas the performance of 2D-SWE(AUC=0.843,PPV 86%,NPV 65%)was not significantly different from that of FIB-4 or APRI.CONCLUSION Compared to SWE,MRE might be more precise non-invasive assessment for depicting significant fibrosis and for making-decision to initiate antiviral-therapy in treatment-na?ve CHB patients with normal or mildly-elevated ALT levels. | Hee Sun Park Won Hyeok Choe Hye Seung Han Mi Hye Yu Young Jun Kim Sung Il Jung Jeong Han Kim So Young Kwon | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,25: | 7 |
| 11 | Outcome of transarterial chemoembolization-based multi-modal treatment in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM:To investigate the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)-based multimodal treatment in patients with large hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).METHODS:A total of 146 consecutive patients were included in the analysis,and their medical records and radiological data were reviewed retrospectively.RESULTS:In total,119 patients received TACE-based multi-modal treatments,and the remaining 27 received conservative management.Overall survival(P<0.001)and objective tumor response(P=0.003)were significantly better in the treatment group than in the conservative group.After subgroup analysis,survival benefits were observed not only in the multi-modal treatment group compared with the TACE-only group(P=0.002)but also in the surgical treatment group compared with the loco-regional treatment-only group(P<0.001).Multivariate analysis identified tumor stage(P<0.001)and tumor type(P=0.009)as two independent pre-treatment factors for survival.After adjusting for significant pre-treatment prognostic factors,objective response(P<0.001),surgical treatment(P=0.009),and multi-modal treatment(P=0.002)were identified as independent post-treatment prognostic factors.CONCLUSION:TACE-based multi-modal treatments were safe and more beneficial than conservative management.Salvage surgery after successful downstaging resultedin long-term survival in patients with large,unresectable HCC. | Do Seon Song Soon Woo Nam Si Hyun Bae Jin Dong Kim Jeong Won Jang Myeong Jun Song Sung Won Lee Hee Yeon Kim Young Joon Lee Ho Jong Chun Young Kyoung You Jong Young Choi Seung Kew Yoon | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,8: | 7 |

| 15 | Concomitant therapy achieved the best eradication rate for Helicobacter pylori among various treatment strategies显示文摘AIM: To compare the Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) eradication rate of clarithromycin-based triple therapy,metronidazole-based triple therapy,sequential therapy and concomitant therapy.METHODS: A total of 680 patients infected with H.pylori were divided into 4 groups and each group was treated with a different eradication therapy.Clarithromycin-based triple therapy was applied to the first group [rabeprazole,amoxicillin and clarithromycin(PAC) group: proton pump inhibitor(PPI),amoxicillin,clarithromycin],whereas the second group was treated with metronidazole-based triple therapy [rabeprazole,amoxicillin and metronidazole(PAM) group: PPI,amoxicillin,metronidazole].The third group was treated with rabeprazole and amoxicillin,followed by rabeprazole,clarithromycin and metronidazole(sequential group).The final group was simultaneously treated with rabeprazole,amoxicillin clarithromycin and metronidazole(concomitant therapy group).In the case of a failure to eradicate H.pylori,second-line quadruple and third-line eradication therapies were administered.RESULTS: The per protocol(PP) analysis was performed on 143,139,141 and 143 patients in the PAC,PAM,sequential and concomitant groups,respectively.We excluded patients who did not receive a C13-urea breath test(22,20,23 and 22 patients,respectively) and patients with less than an 80% compliance level(5,11,6 and 5 patients,respectively).The eradication rates were 76.2%(109/143) in the PAC group,84.2%(117/139) in the PAM group,84.4%(119/141) in the sequential group and 94.4%(135/143) in the concomitant group(P = 0.0002).All 14 patients who failed second-line therapy were treated with thirdline eradication therapy.Among these 14 patients,6 infections were successfully eradicated with the thirdline therapy.Both PP and intention-to-treat analysis showed an eradication rate of 42.9%(6/14).In the PAC group,3 of 4 patients were successfully cured(3/4,75%); 2 of 2 patients in the PAM group(2/2,100%) and 1 of 5 patients in the sequential group(1/5,20%) were also cured.In the concomitant group,all 3 patients failed(0/3,0%).CONCLUSION: The eradication rate for the concomitant therapy was much higher than those of the standard triple therapy or sequential therapy(Clinical Trials.gov number NCT01922765). | Hyun Jeong Lee Jin Il Kim Jin Soo Lee Eun Jung Jun Jung-Hwan Oh Dae Young Cheung Woo Chul Chung Byung-Wook Kim Sung Soo Kim | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,1: | 6 |
| 16 | Pretreated Oenan the Javanica extract increases anti-inflammatory cytokines, attenuates gliosis, and protects hippocampal neurons following transient global cerebral ischemia in gerbils显示文摘Recently,we have reported that Oenanthe javanica extract(OJE)displays strong neuroprotective effect against ischemic damage after transient global cerebral ischemia.However,neuroprotective mechanisms of OJE have not been fully identified.Thus,this study investigated the neuroprotection of OJE in the hippocampal CA1 area and its anti-inflammatory activity in gerbils subjected to 5 minutes of transient global cerebral ischemia.We treated the animals by intragastrical injection of OJE(100 and 200 mg/kg)once daily for 1 week prior to transient global cerebral ischemia.Neuroprotection of OJE was observed by immunohistochemistry for neuronal nuclear antigen and histofluorescence staining for Fluoro-Jade B.Immunohistochemistry of glial fibrillary acidic protein and ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 was done for astrocytosis and microgliosis,respectively.To investigate the neuroprotective mechanisms of OJE,we performed immunohistochemistry of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-2 for pro-inflammatory function and interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 for anti-inflammatory function.When we treated the animals by intragastrical administration of 200 mg/kg of OJE,hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons were protected from transient global cerebral ischemia and cerebral ischemia-induced gliosis was inhibited in the ischemic hippocampal CA1 area.We also found that interleukin-4 and-13 immunoreactivities were significantly increased in pyramidal neurons of the ischemic CA1 area after OJE pretreatment,and the increased immunoreactivities were sustained in the CA1 pyramidal neurons after transient global cerebral ischemia.However,OJE pretreatment did not increase interleukin-2 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha immunoreactivities in the CA1 pyramidal neurons.Our findings suggest that pretreatment with OJE can protect neurons and attenuate gliosis from transient global cerebral ischemia via increasing expressions of interleukin-4 and-13.The experimental plan of this study was reviewed and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee(IACUC)in Kangwon National University(approval No.KW-160802-1)on August 10,2016. | Joon Ha Park In Hye Kim Ji Hyeon Ahn YooHun Noh Sung-Su Kim Tae-Kyeong Lee Jae-Chul Lee Bich-Na Shin Tae Heung Sim Hyun Sam Lee Jeong Hwi Cho In Koo Hwang Il Jun Kang Jong Dai Kim Moo-Ho Won | 2019 | Neural Regeneration Research2019,14,9: | 6 |
| 17 | Colour stabilities of three types of orthodontic clear aligners exposed to staining agents显示文摘The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the colour stabilities of three types of orthodontic clear aligners exposed to staining agents in vitro. Sixty clear orthodontic aligners produced by three manufacturers(Invisalign, Angelalign, and Smartee)were immersed in three staining solutions(coffee, black tea, and red wine) and one control solution(distilled water). After 12-h and 7-day immersions, the aligners were washed in an ultrasonic cleaner and measured with a colourimeter. The colour changes(ΔE*) were calculated on the basis of the Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage L*a*b* colour system(CIE L*a*b*), and the results were then converted into National Bureau of Standards(NBS) units. Fourier transformation infrared(FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) were conducted to observe the molecular and morphologic alterations to the aligner surfaces, respectively. The three types of aligners exhibited slight colour changes after 12 h of staining, with the exception of the Invisalign aligners stained with coffee. The Invisalign aligners exhibited significantly higher ΔE* values(ranging from 0.30 to27.81) than those of the Angelalign and Smartee aligners(ΔE* values ranging from 0.33 to 1.89 and 0.32 to 1.61, respectively,Po0.05). FT-IR analysis confirmed that the polymer-based structure of aligners did not exhibit significant chemical differences before and after the immersions. The SEM results revealed different surface alterations to the three types of aligner materials after the 7-day staining. The three types of aesthetic orthodontic appliances exhibited colour stability after the 12-h immersion, with the exception of the Invisalign aligners stained by coffee. The Invisalign aligners were more prone than the Angelalign and Smartee aligners to pigmentation. Aligner materials may be improved by considering aesthetic colour stability properties. | Chen-Lu Liu Wen-Tian Sun Wen Liao Wen-Xin Lu Qi-Wen Li Yunho Jeong Jun Liu Zhi-He Zhao | 2016 | International Journal of Oral Science2016,8,4: | 5 |
| 18 | Simultaneous Paragonimus infection involving the breast and lung:A case report显示文摘BACKGROUND Paragonimiasis is a food-borne parasitic infection caused by lung flukes of the genus Paragonimus. Although the most common site of infection is the pleuropulmonary area, the parasite can also reach other parts of the body on its journey from the intestines to the lungs, ending up in locations such as the brain,abdomen, skin, and subcutaneous tissues. Ectopic paragonimiasis is difficult to diagnose due to the rarity of this disease.CASE SUMMARY Here, we report a rare case of simultaneous breast and pulmonary paragonimiasis in a woman presenting painless breast mass and lung nodule with a history of eating raw trout. To confirm the diagnosis, serologic testing and tissue confirmation of the breast mass were performed. The patient was treated with surgical resection of the mass and praziquantel medication.CONCLUSION Ectopic paragonimiasis is difficult to diagnose due to the rarity of this disease.Thus, thorough history-taking and clinical suspicion of parasitic infection are important. | Moon Young Oh Ajung Chu Jeong Hwan Park Jong Yoon Lee Eun Youn Roh Young Jun Chai Ki-Tae Hwang | 2019 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2019,7,24: | 5 |

| 20 | Hwangryunhaedoktang exerts anti-inflammation on LPS-induced NO production by suppressing MAPK and NF-κB activation in RAW264.7 macrophages显示文摘OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate whether Hwangryunhaedoktang(HHT), a herbal compound, has an inhibitory effect on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced inflammation in RAW264.7 macrophages.METHODS: The effects of HHT were evaluated by confirming nitric oxide(NO) production and expression of inducible NO synthase(iN OS) and mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPKs) in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages via the Griess assay, Western blotting, and real-time reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Western blot analyses and luciferase assays were used to evaluate whether HHT has an effect on the phosphorylation and translocation of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB). The secretion and expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-6(IL-6) were determined via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot analyses.RESULTS: HHT suppressed LPS-induced NO production and expression of iN OS in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, MAPKs activation was also attenuated via inhibition of phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2, c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 which were related to inflammatory pathway. Furthermore, HHT also effectively attenuated NF-κB activation and its translocation to the nucleus, a process that is closely linked to inflammation. LPS normally induced the expression of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6, but the secretion and expression of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly attenuated by pretreating the cells with HHT.CONCLUSION: HHT suppressed LPS-induced NO production by blocking the activation of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways in RAW264.7 macrophages. Furthermore, HHT may have an anti-inflammatory effect by suppressing the LPS-induced secretion of TNF-α and IL-6. Therefore, the traditional herbal formula HHT might be a useful potential therapeutic agent for inflammation. | Byung Hyuk Han Yun Jung Lee Jung Joo Yoon Eun Sik Choi Seung Namgung Xian Jun Jin Da Hye Jeong Dae Gill Kang Ho Sub Lee | 2017 | Journal of Integrative Medicine2017,15,4: | 5 |
