- Paper Abstract
- Background: Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic and idiopathic autoimmune disorder. Perillyl alcohol (POH) is a monoterpene which can be extracted from widely available essential oils and is known for its strong anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. Hypothesis/purpose: Recent studies have been proven that inhibitors of farnesyltransferase enzyme showed significant anti-arthritic activity. POH is one such natural molecule having anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties by inhibiting farnesyltransferase enzyme which further down regulates NF-κB and Nrf2 via Ras/Raf/MAPK pathway. Also, the effect of POH against rheumatoid arthritis is not known yet. Hence, the present research was intended to assess the anti-arthritic potential of POH in-vitro and in-vivo. Methods: The in-vitro effects of POH on RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with LPS 1 µg/ml were investigated to its potential therapeutic effects. CFA 100 µl was intradermally administered to rats for the induction of arthritis. POH 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg administered topically from day 1 to day 28. Paw volumes measured, radiography analysis, anti-oxidant status, Gene expression studies, western blot analysis and histological analysis were performed to check the effects of POH. Results: Our in-vitro findings suggested that POH inhibits inflammation by suppressing reactive oxygen species (ROS), NF-кB and Nrf2 signaling axis. Besides this, POH also rescinded the nitrate levels, pro-inflammatory cytokine levels like IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α also PGE2 and COX-2 levels induced by LPS in murine macrophages. Additionally, our in-vivo results revealed that POH conscientiously alleviated CFA induced inflammation by restoring arthritis index, body weight, nitrosative, lipid peroxidation assays. Macroscopically through measuring paw volumes and X-ray, it was evidenced that POH has decreased inflammation and bone erosion. Not only in-vitro but also in-vivo, POH has abridged cytokine levels IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Histopathological evaluation presented POH treatment alleviated joint inflammation, pannus formation, and bone erosion significantly. Moreover, POH suppressed the protein expression of NF-кB, COX-2, iNOS and improved Nrf2, and SOD2 levels in paw tissues estimated by western blotting. Conclusion: POH was effective in ameliorating LPS stimulation mediated oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines in RAW 264.7 cells in-vitro and FCA induced arthritis in rats in-vivo through its anti-inflammatory effects via regulating TLR4/NF-κB and Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathways..
