Abstract

Sulforaphane (SFN) is a natural isothiocyanate that is present in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage. Previous studies have shown that SFN is effective in preventing carcinogenesis induced by carcinogens in rodents, which is related in part to its potent anti-inflammation properties. In the present study, we compared the anti-inflammatory effect of SFN on LPS-stimulated inflammation in primary peritoneal macrophages derived from Nrf2 (+/+) and Nrf2 mice. Pretreatment of SFN in Nrf2 (+/+) primary peritoneal macrophages potently inhibited LPS-stimulated mRNA expression, protein expression and production of TNFα, IL-1β, Cox-2 and iNOS. HO-1 expression, which is significantly augmented in LPS-stimulated Nrf2 (+/+) primary peritoneal macrophages by SFN. Interestingly, the anti-inflammatory effect was attenuated in Nrf2 (−/−) primary peritoneal macrophages. We concluded that SFN exerts its anti-inflammatory activity mainly via activation of Nrf2 in mouse peritoneal macrophages.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
