Inhibitory effects of tetrandrine on production of phospholipase A2, prostaglandin synthase 2 and prostaglandin E, in U937 cells induced by lipopolysaccharide
The purpose of thin study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of tetrandrine on the production ofII-phospholipase A
2
(II - PLA
2
)
cytosolic phospholipase A
2
(cPLA

)
cyclo - oxygenase 2
COX - 2 (orprostaglandin synthase 2) and prostaglandin E
2
(PGE
2
) in U937 cells induced by lipopolysacoharide(LPS). Cultured U937 cells were separately treated by adding LPS and tetrandrine. II-PLA

activity and the levels of cPLA

COX-2 and PGE

in U937 cells were analyzed by radioactive assay or ELISA. It was found that LPS couldincrease the activity of II-PLA
2
and stimulate U937 cells to produce more cPLA

COX-2 and PGE

.Tetrandrine could inhibit the increase of these indicators induced by LPS to different degrees. Our findingssuggest that tetrandrine plays the role of anti- inflammation through inhibiting the production of phospholipaseA
