Abstract

Objectives This study was conducted to find out the antioxidant and inflammatory improvement effects of Wolbigachul-tang. Methods To evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of wolbigachul-tang, the total polyphenol and flavonoid contents were measured. And radical scavenging function was measured. In addition reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide, cytokines productions were measured by treating wolbigachul-tang in the lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7 cells. We also measured the gene expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, cytokines too. Results Radical scavenging experiments showed significant concentration-dependent scavenging capacity increase. The amount of reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide, cytokines production in the cell all showed a significant concentration-dependent decrease compared to the control group. The gene expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, and cytokines also showed a significant concentration-dependent decrease compared to the control group. Conclusions In conclusion, it is believed that wolbigachul-tang can be applied to various inflammatory diseases.
