reach
"The observations that MED effectively inhibited LPS induced inflammatory responses in vitro prompted us to investigate whether MED can inhibit LPS induced endotoxin shock in vivo."

reach
"Consistently, MED suppressed LPS stimulated iNOS protein production in a dose dependent manner (XREF_FIG)."

reach
"Recently, we have showed that MED could inhibit LPS induced inflammatory responses, ovariectomy induced osteoporosis, and allergic responses in mice [XREF_BIBR - XREF_BIBR]."

reach
"MED inhibited LPS induced nuclear translocation of nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB (NF-kappaB) p65, IkappaB degradation, IkappaB kinase (IKK) phosphorylation, and the activation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK), c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38, suggesting that MED blocks the activation of both NF-kappaB and mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways."

reach
"MED significantly inhibited LPS induced production of pro inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interferon-gamma (INF-gamma), and nitric oxide (NO), whereas it increased anti-inflammatory interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) production in BV2 microglia in a concentration dependent manner without causing cytotoxicity."
