摘要: The present study was conducted to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of florfenicol (FFC) against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses in Ctenopharyngodon idella in vivo and in vitro. Head-kidney (HK) macrophages were pre-treated with 10 mu g/mL LPS and then exposed to different concentrations of FFC to determine its in vitro anti-inflammatory activity. Inhibitory effect of FFC on inflammatory mediators TNF-alpha, IL-6 and IL-1 beta, as well as LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2) production were assayed by ELISA. The expression level of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were investigated by RT-PCR. Expression level of TLR-related genes (TLR1, TLR2, TLR4, TLR7, TLR8) expression, tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), transforming growth factor-b-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), nucleus p65, NF-kappa B alpha (I kappa B alpha) were measured by RT-PCR after grass carp were treated with 50, 100 and 200 mg FFC/kg body weight for 3 days. Results from in vitro tests demonstrated that FFC dose-dependently inhibited LPS-induced inflammatory cytokines TNF-alpha, IL-6 and IL-1 beta, inflammatory factors NO and PGE 2 production in macrophages. In addition, iNOS and COX-2 expression levels decreased significantly as compared with LPS treated group. In vivo test demonstrated that treatment with FFC prevented the LPS-induced upregulation of TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-1 beta, NO and PGE 2. The expression level of iNOS, and COX-2 in FFC-treated grass carp were also downregulated as compared with LPS treated fish. Besides, FFC blocked the expression of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and then suppressed the phosphorylation of nuclear transcription factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) p65 and degradation inhibitor of I kappa B alpha. Furthermore, administration of FFC inhibited the up-regulation of IRAK4, TRAF6 and TAK1 induced by LPS. These results suggest that the anti-inflammatory properties of FFC might be the results from the inhibition of iNOS, COX-2, IL-6, IL-1 beta, and TNF-alpha expressions through the down-regulation of Toll/NF-kappa B signaling pathways.
