After a week of feeding water and sample for each group, we do the intraperitoneal injection of LPS (Lipopolysaccharide) to induced acute inflammation, the mice will sacrifice 3 hours later, and we collected the blood, organs and lymph nodes for immuno-biochemical analysis.The results shows that compare to the control group, the levels of blood IL-6 and TNF-α in the high-dose BPE group were significantly decreasing, which is the same as the control group. The amount of the IL-6 peritoneal cell secretion was also significantly decreasing, and when observing the stimulation of the spleen to T cell, we found that the secretion of IFN-γ and IL-6 were also decreasing. But instead, the formation of IL-4 and IL-10 has increased slightly. The research shows that BPE adjust the balance of Th1/Th2 and reduced the response of inflammatory. And in the adjustments of T cells (Regulatory T cell), the high-dose, low-dose group and the positive control group were significantly decreased and were having significant differences. In this research, we analyzed the anti-inflammatory effects of the components in BPE and found that, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, Guaiol and the oleamide concentrations of 100μM can inhibited the ability of LPS stimulating macrophage to secret IL-6 And TNF-α. This research shows that BPE and its isolated components can inhibit LPS to induce acute inflammation by decreasing the formation of the inflammatory cytokine.
