Honokiol Ameliorates DSS-Induced Mouse Colitis by Inhibiting Inflammation and Oxidative Stress and Improving the Intestinal Barrier
Paper Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a multifactor intestinal disease with increased morbidity. Recently, pleiotropic drugs with exact biosafety have been urgently needed. Honokiol (HKL) is the major bioactive component of traditional Chinese medicine "Houpu," with almost no toxic effects and approved anti-inflammation, antioxidant, antispasmodic, etc. effects. This study examined the therapeutic effect of HKL in dextran sulfate sodium- (DSS-) induced experimental colitis. In vivo, C57BL/6 mice received 3% DSS for seven days to generate UC, and HKL was pretreated for five days and given during the whole DSS-induced period. In vitro, RAW264.7 macrophages were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce inflammation, and mouse colon epithelial cells (MCEC) were treated with HKL or pretreated with HKL and then stimulated with LPS-induced macrophage supernate to investigate the barrier enhancement roles. HKL significantly ameliorated disease activity index (DAI), colon length, and histopathological scores in DSS-induced colitis. The inflammatory mediators of interleukin 1 β (IL-1 β ), interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF- α ), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) were decreased, and the tight conjunction proteins were increased in the HKL-treated group both in vivo and in vitro. Above all, HKL can relieve experimental UC through anti-inflammation, antioxidant, and epithelial barrier enhancement roles. These effects were associated with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR γ )/nuclear factor- κ B (NF- κ B) p65, sirtuin3 (SIRT3)/adenosine 5'-monophosphate- (AMP-) activated protein kinase (AMPK), and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2)/heme oxygenase 1 (HO1) signaling pathways. In conclusion, after further clinical studies, HKL may be a promising drug for UC.
