Electroacupuncture Improves Trinitrobenzene Sulfonic Acid-Induced Colitis, Evaluated by Transcriptomic Study
Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic colonic inflammation that displays symptoms like diarrhea and weight loss. Acupuncture has been widely accepted by Western countries for the treatment of pain. Here, we analyzed efficacy and mechanism of electroacupuncture (EA) on trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid- (TNBS-) induced colitis in mice. Mice were intrarectally administered with 250 mg/kg TNBS and e...
متن کاملVanillin improves and prevents trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced colitis in mice.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is chronic inflammatory and relapsing disease of the gut. It has been known that activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) and production of proinflammatory cytokines play important roles in the pathogenesis of IBD. In this study, the effect of vanillin (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde), a potent nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) inhibitor, was evaluated i...
متن کاملProtective effect of royal jelly in 2,4,6 trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced colitis in rats
Objective(s):In the present study, we evaluated immunological and immunomodulatory properties of royal jelly (RJ) in 2,4,6 trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis in rats. Materials and Methods: Eighteen adult female Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups of six animals each: a control group that received only saline solution, a TNBS-induced colitis group, and a TNBS-co...
متن کاملTopical and systemic cannabidiol improves trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid colitis in mice.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Compounds of Cannabis sativa are known to exert anti-inflammatory properties, some of them without inducing psychotropic side effects. Cannabidiol (CBD) is such a side effect-free phytocannabinoid that improves chemically induced colitis in rodents when given intraperitoneally. Here, we tested the possibility whether rectal and oral application of CBD would also ameliorate colon...
متن کاملGlutamine prevents fibrosis development in rats with colitis induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid.
We investigated the effects of glutamine on the development of colonic fibrosis and on the expression of the major fibrogenic factors in a rat model of experimental colitis. Colitis was induced in one-half of the male Wistar rats by intracolonic administration of 30 mg of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). L-glutamine (25 mg/kg) was administered rectally to one-half of the controls and...
