Cell-based screening assay for anti-inflammatory activity of bioactive compounds

Food Chemistry, 2015
Excess dietary intake may induce metabolic inflammation which is associated with insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease. Recent evidence indicates that dietary bioactive compounds may diminish metabolic inflammation. To identify anti-inflammatory bioactives, we developed a screening assay using the human H293-NF-κB-RE-luc2P reporter cell line ...

The Griess Assay: Suitable for a Bio-Guided Fractionation of Anti-Inflammatory Plant Extracts?

Planta Medica, 1998
In the field of inflammation research the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) became an important pharmacological target, since overproduction of nitric oxide (NO) after induction of this enzyme seems to be associated with numerous pathological conditions.

The evaluation of cotton twine as a new anti-inflammatory assay

Agents and Actions, 1975
A new anti-inflammatory assay is described, utilizing a subcutaneously implanted elongated section of cotton twine to induce granuloma in rats. The cotton twine irritant is easily introduced under the abdominal skin and after seven days a well formed granuloma is established.

AN IMPROVED METHOD FOR THE ASSAY OF ANTI-INFLAMMATORY SUBSTANCES IN RATS

Acta Endocrinologica, 1960
ABSTRACT An improved method for assaying anti-inflammatory substances is described. Granulomata are produced by means of cotton-wool pellets which have been impregnated with carrageenin. The precision of the assay when used for anti-inflammatory steroids is approximately double that obtained with plain cotton-wool pellets.

Anti-oxidative assays as markers for anti-inflammatory activity of flavonoids

International Immunopharmacology, 2016
The complexity of in vitro anti-inflammatory assays, the cost and time consumed, and the necessary skills can be a hurdle to apply to promising compounds in a high throughput setting. In this study, several antioxidative assays i.e. DPPH, ABTS, ORAC and xanthine oxidase (XO) were used to examine the antioxidative activity of three sub groups of ...

Assay Systems for Measurement of Anti-inflammatory Activity

2009
It is widely accepted that cationic antimicrobial peptides possess potent microbicidal properties. Recent studies show that in addition to their antimicrobial action, these peptides can exhibit anti-inflammatory activity. The purpose of this chapter is to describe in vivo ear inflammation models that can be used for evaluating the anti-inflammatory ...
