Abstract

In order to validate the use of Faeces Trogopterori as an anti-inflammatory drug in the traditional Korean medicine, I have investigated the effect of water-soluble extract of F. Trogopterori (EFT) on the production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), of which chemokine stimulates the migration of mononuclear cells, in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) stimulated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha. The extract inhibited dose-dependently MCP-1 production without its cytotoxic effect on HUVECs, as measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and significantly decreased mRNA levels of MCP-1, as determined using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. These results suggest that F. Trogopterori may have therapeutic potential in the control of endothelial disorders caused by inflammation.
