Abstract
Possible antiinflammatory effects of dehydroevodiamine (1) and evodiamine (2) were examined by assessing their effects on NO production in the murine macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7. The results indicated that both 1 and 2 inhibited the IFN-gamma/LPS-stimulated NO production in a concentration-dependent manner. However, 1 appeared to inhibit NO production by interfering not only with the priming signal initiated by IFN-gamma but also with iNOS protein synthesis, while 2 affected the former only.Entities:
