Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) and prostagladins(PGs) produced by inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) and cyclooxygenase(COX-2) are known as inflammatory mediator. Modulation of these enzymes, induced by many stimuli(LPS, IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, phorbol ester, etc), is a potent strategy as treatment of inflammatory diseases. Treatment of murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cell line with indole compound(IND-6) markedly reduced lipopolysacchride(LPS) stimulated NO production in a concentration-related manner. (omitted)
