| Name | N-(p-Coumaroyl) serotonin |
| Description | N-(p-Coumaroyl) Serotonin, a polyphenol isolated from the seeds of safflower, exhibits antioxidant, cardioprotective effects after ischemia, and antitumor activity. It may improve vascular distensibility and reduce cardiovascular risk. N-(p-Coumaroyl) Serotonin ameliorates atherosclerosis and distensibility of the aortic wall in vivo, and is commonly used in atherosclerosis research. |
| In vitro | As reactive oxygen species (ROS) are implicated in the signaling of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), we examined whether CS has a suppressive effect on inflammatory cytokine generation from human monocytes in vitro. CS at 50-200 microM reduced tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and IL-6 activities in the culture supernatants from LPS-stimulated human blood monocytes without cytotoxicity. ELISA assay revealed that the production of TNF-alpha, IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-6 was inhibited by CS. Northern blot analysis showed that LPS-induced expression of these cytokine mRNA in monocytes was suppressed by CS. NF-kappaB activation was also inhibited by CS[1] |
