摘要: Objectives Rhus verniciflua Stokes (RVS), which has valuable medicinal properties, for many years been prescribed inflammation in east Asian medicine. Recent studies suggest that RVS potent antioxidative, antitumor and anti-inflammatory properties. Methods In this study, the effects of vitro vivo were investigated. The ethanol extract from was partitioned with different solvents order increasing polarity. Key findings Among various extracts, n-butanol displayed most activity against nitric oxide reactive oxygen species. also significantly regulates expression synthase, inhibits production at transcriptional level activated macrophages. Immunoblot analysis showed suppresses phosphorylation extracellular signal-regulated kinase Akt, suggesting synthase suppression might be mediated via Akt signaling pathways. This study investigated whether exerts an effect animal model. reduces carrageenan-induced mouse paw edema 5 h. Conclusions These results could a promising candidate agent prevention combination therapy drugs.
