The effects of luteolin on the production of NO and PGE2 in macrophages, and their viability. (a) Chemical structures of luteolin, eupatilin, and jaceosidin. ((b), (c), (e), (f), and (g)) RAW264.7 cells (1 × 106 cells/mL) were treated with LPS (1 μg/mL) in the presence or absence of luteolin, eupatilin, jaceosidin, Aa-EE, or standard compounds [indomethacin (Indo) and L-NAME] for 24 h. The supernatants were then collected, and the NO or PGE2 concentrations in the supernatants were determined using the Griess assay or EIA. (d) RAW264.7 cells (1 × 106 cells/mL) were treated with luteolin for 24 h. Cell viability was evaluated using the MTT assay. All data are expressed as the mean ± SD of experiments, which were performed with six samples. and compared to normal or control groups.
