Abstract

This study was to investigate the effect of Danchunwhangagam(DCWGG) extract on the production of proinflammatory cytokines in peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMCS) from Cerebral infarction(CI) patients. Methods: We examined that the inhibition rate of tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha},\;interleukin(IL)-1{\alpha},\;IL-1{\beta}$, IL-6, and IL-8 productions in DCWGG pretreatment PBMCs culture supernatant in the lipopolysaccaride(LPS)- or Oesferrioxamine(DFX)-treated cells compared to unstimulated cells. DCWGG inhibited the productions of $TNF-{\alpha},\;IL-1{\alpha},\;IL-1{\beta}$, IL-6, and IL-8 induced by LPS in a dose-dependent manner DCWGG might have regulatory effects on LPS or DFX-induced cytokine production, which might explain its beneficial effect in the treatment of CI.
