Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease caused mainly by immune dysregulation. This study explored the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of the Centella asiatica ethanol extract (CA) on an AD-like dermal disorder. Treatment with CA inhibited the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in a dose-dependent manner in inflammatory stimulated HaCaT cells by interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and TNF-α-triggered inflammation. Eight-week-old BALB/c mice treated with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) were used as a mouse model of AD. In AD induce model, we had two types treatment of CA; skin local administration (80 µg/cm2, AD+CA-80) and oral administration (200 mg/kg/d, AD+CA-200). Interestingly, the CA-treated groups exhibited considerably decreased mast cell infiltration in the ear tissue. In addition, the expression of IL-6 in mast cells, as well as the expression of various pathogenic cytokines, such as TNF-α, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17, iNOS, COX-2, and CXCL9, was reduced in both AD+CA-80 and AD+CA-200 groups. Collectively, our data demonstrate the pharmacological role and signaling mechanism of CA in the regulation of allergic inflammation of the skin, which supports our hypothesis that CA could potentially be developed as a therapeutic agent for AD.

Angelicae Dahuricae Radix

We examined whether Angelicae Dahuricae Radix (AR) suppresses the development of atopic dermatitis (AD)-like skin lesions induced byDermatophagoides farinaein NC/Nga mice. To investigate the effect of AR, we measured the AD severity score, measured plasma levels of IgE and histamine, and performed histological analysis in NC/Nga mice. We also confirmed the anti-inflammatory effects of AR by measuring TARC/CCL17 production from LPS-treated RAW 264.7 cells and mRNA levels of TARC and MDC/CCL22 in TNF-α/IFN-γ-treated HaCaT cells. 10 mg/day of AR extract was applied for 4 weeks to NC/Nga mice. Both the AR extract and 0.1% tacrolimus suppressed the development of AD-like skin lesions and reduced dermatitis scores of the back and ear skin. AR extracts caused an inhibition of histological changes induced by repeated application ofD. farinaeand a reduction of IgE and histamine levels in plasma (P<0.05). Furthermore, NO production in LPS-treated RAW 264.7 cells was diminished in a dose-dependent manner, and hTARC production and TARC and MDC mRNA levels in TNF-α/IFN-γ-treated HaCaT cells were diminished by AR. The inhibitory effect of AR on NO, TARC and MDC production may be associated with the suppression of AD-like skin lesions inD. farinae-induced NC/Nga mice.

Kyungohkgo (KOG) is an oriental herbal medicine that has been used for its various pharmacological effects, which include anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and immuno-regulation activities. But its effects and mechanisms of anti-atopic dermatitis (AD) have not been elucidated. HaCaT cells were pre-treated with KOG for 1 h and stimulated with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interferon (IFN)-γ (10 ng/ml each). After 24 h, cells were harvested to measure the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and chemokines such as regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES/CCL5), Thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC/CCL17) and macrophage-deraived chemokine (MDC/CCL22). To investigate the regulatory mechanisms of KOG, we also assessed the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT1) signaling pathways in HaCaT cells. Treatment of KOG decreased the ROS production and mRNA levels of RANTES, TARC, MDC with a concentration dependent manner. In addition, KOG significantly inhibited TNF-α and IFN-γ induced phosphorylation of STAT1. This could indicate that the KOG shows anti-AD activity mainly through STAT1. Thus, we propose that KOG may be a promising anti-AD skin protector, which could suggest the clinical basis for cosmetics development.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with a type 2 T helper cell (Th2) immune response. The IndigoPulverata Levis extract (CHD) is used in traditional Southeast Asian medicine; however, its beneficial effects on AD remain uninvestigated. Therefore, we investigated the therapeutic effects of CHD in 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)-induced BALB/c mice and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α- and interferon gamma (IFN)-γ-stimulated HaCaT cells. We evaluated immune cell infiltration, skin thickness, and the serum IgE and TNF-α levels in DNCB-induced AD mice. Moreover, we measured the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in the mice dorsal skin. We also studied the effect of CHD on the translocation of NF-κB p65 and inflammatory chemokines in HaCaT cells. Our in vivo results revealed that CHD reduced the dermis and epidermis thicknesses and inhibited immune cell infiltration. Furthermore, it suppressed the proinflammatory cytokine expression and MAPK and NF-κB phosphorylations in the skin tissue and decreased serum IgE and TNF-α levels. In vitro results indicated that CHD downregulated inflammatory chemokines and blocked NF-κB p65 translocation. Thus, we deduced that CHD is a potential drug candidate for AD treatment.

Plants of the genus Wikstroemia are traditionally used in China to treat various inflammatory diseases. The purpose of this study was to isolate the components of Wikstroemia ganpi (Siebold & Zucc.) Maxim., to evaluate their anti-atopic activities and to identify candidates with anti-atopic therapeutics. A total of 24 compounds were isolated by bioassay-guided separation, including one novel compound, which was tilianin 5-methyl ether. The anti-atopic activities of the isolated compounds were determined using TNF-α-treated RBL-2H3 cells and HaCaT cells. The mRNA expressions of IL-4, IL-6, GM-CSF, G-CSF and TRPV1 were reduced by luteolin 7-methyl ether. The study shows that the luteolin 7-methyl ether isolated from W. ganpi is a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of atopic dermatitis.

Abstract Present study is involved in identification of biophenolic and flavonoids from the aqueous-ethanol extract of Cyperus iria and appraisal of inflammatory and stress markers involved in endocrine dysfunction based upon its folktale use. Significantly higher quantities of phenolic (82.79 ± 0.003 mg/g GAE) and flavonoid (13.61 ± 0.002 mg/g QE) contents were present. Inhibitory concentration (IC50) exhibited an excellent potential for both antioxidant (IC50 = 3.22 µg/mL) and alpha amylase (IC50 = 36.29 µg/mL) inhibitory assays. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), confirmed the existence of myercetin, quercetin, kaempferol and ferullic acid. Cyperus iria aqueous-ethanol extract exhibits good tolerance against glucose. Streptozotocin induced hyperglycemia declined along with improvement in inflammatory (TNF-α = 15.6 ± 0.2 g/l, COX-2 = 357 ± 0.396 U/l, IL-6 = 572 ± 0.99 pg/l) and oxidative stress markers (SOD = 163 ± 0.616 and GSH-ST = 95.8 ± 0.44 U/mL) along with biochemical parameters in a dose-dependent manner. Present study suggests that Cyperus iria aqueous-ethanol extract possess hypoglycemic potential which might be attributed to the presence of phenolics and flavonoids.
