Objective To investigate the anti-oxidative stress effect and mechanism of WODE on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) -induced mouse macrophages (RAW264.7 cells). Methods The effects of different concentrations of WODE (2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0, 40.0, 80.0, and 160.0 μmol·L-1) on the viability of RAW264.7 cells were detected by MTS assay. RAW264.7 cells were cultured in vitro, wogonin 7-O-β-D-ethyl glucuronide (10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1) or dexamethasone (1 μmol·L-1, positive drug) was pretreated for one hour, and then LPS was administered for 24 hours (no drug was added during the modeling process). The control group was not given LPS and the test substance, while the model group was only given LPS stimulation. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were detected by fluorescent probe. The production of NO was determined by Griess reaction. The secretion of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the cell supernatant was detected by ELISA. The mRNA expression levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-1β, quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO-1), superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD-1) were detected by qRT-PCR. The protein expression levels of nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were detected by Western blotting. The expression of Kelch ECH-related protein 1 (Keap1) protein was detected by immunofluorescence staining. Results Compared with control group, there was no significant change in cell survival rate when wogonin 7-O-β-D-ethyl glucuronide concentration was less than 40 μmol·L-1, the cell survival rate decreased when the concentration greater than 80 μmol·L-1, but there was no statistical difference. Compared with the model group, the ROS level in wogonin 7-O-β-Dethyl glucuronide 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group was significantly lower (P<0.01), the NO release was significantly decreased in 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group (P<0.05, 0.01), the expression level of iNOS mRNA in 40 μmol·L-1 group significantly decreased (P<0.01), COX-2 in 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group and IL-1β mRNA expression level in 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group significantly decreased (P<0.05, 0.01), TNF-α and IL-6 release in 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group were significantly inhibited (P<0.01), the expression level of NQO-1 mRNA in 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group was significantly increased (P<0.01), the expression level of SOD-1 mRNA in 40 μmol·L-1 group significantly increased (P<0.01), the expression level of Keap1 protein in 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group significantly decreased (P<0.01), the protein and mRNA expression levels of HO-1 protein in 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group were significantly increased (P<0.05, 0.01), Nrf2 protein expression in 10, 20, 40 μmol·L-1 group and Nrf2 mRNA expression in 40 μmol·L-1 group was significantly increased (P<0.01). Conclusion Wogonin 7-O-β-D-ethyl glucuronide inhibited LPS-induced oxidative stress in RAW264.7 cells, which might be related to the regulation of Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.
