Research Abstract |
From isobolograms of various food-derived NO production-suppressive compounds, Curcumin (CUR) and Resveratrol (RES) showed synergistic effects. While CUR and Luteolin (LUT) also showed synergistic effect, Chrysin (CHR) and Apigenin (API), other flavones with NO production-suppressive activity, did not show synergism with CUR. From Western blot analysis, combination of not only CUR and LUT but also CUR and RES showed enhancement effects in inhibitory rate of LPS-induced iNOS protein production. Because LUT has characteristic catechol moiety in the B-ring, which is not resided in CHR and API, the moiety may be associated in the synergism between LUT and CUR.
