Background and Aims: COX-2 enzyme inhibition is responsible for the anti-inflammatory effects of NSAIDs, COX-1 for their effects upon the gastrointestinal system (GIS), along with other side effects. We investigated the relationship between COX levels and those adrenergic receptors known to play a role in gastroprotection and anti-inflammatory activity. Method: The effects of adrenaline and prednisolone on gastric COX-1 and COX-2 levels in both intact and adrenalectomized rats treated with doxazosin, yohimbine, propranolol, and metoprolol were determined. Results: We found that adrenaline increases COX-1 levels in the gastric tissue of both intact and adrenalectomized rats by stimulating -2 receptors. Adrenaline decreases COX-2 levels by stimulating ß-2 adrenergic receptors. Prednisolone inhibits both COX-1 and COX-2 in the gastric tissue of intact rats. In adrenalectomized rats, prednisolone increases gastric COX-1 by stimulating -2 receptors, and decreases COX-2 levels by stimulating ß-2 receptors. Conclusion: Prednisolone cannot bind to a adrenergic receptors in the presence of adrenaline (intact rats) but, in its absence (adrenalectomy), binds to -2 receptors, and stimulates them more effectively than adrenaline, suggesting a direct relationship between -2 adrenergic receptors and COX-1 levels, whereas ß-2 receptors are directly related to COX-2 levels.
Due to toxic and adverse side effects of synthetic drugs, traditional herbal medicine has the potential as a source of new bioactive molecules. That is why we investigated this research, searching new anti-inflammatory drugs from plants growing around us. The anti-inflammatory effect of the mixture of different plants used in traditional medicine (Alkanna tinctoria, Rubia tinctorum and Artemisia herba alba) were studied using carrageenan-induced paw edema (oil mixture extract 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg). These material reduces carrageenan-induced inflammation in rats and shows inhibition after 4 h especially at a concentration 200 mg/
Several chronic diseases are directly related to inflammatory states and lead to tissue damage and failure. Millions of people die worldwide from inflammation-associated pathologies such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and obesity. Inadequate dietary habits contribute to a deterioration of these diseases. Diet anti-inflammatory models should be studied in more detail. Fruit and vegetable polyphenols have shown anti-inflammatory benefits. This article is aimed at evaluating the inflammatory response in different murine models administered polyphenol rich diets, with a primary focus on flavonoids extracted from plants and evaluated in several inflammatory induced conditions. Carrageenan as an inflammatory agent was used to induce inflammation and several anti-inflammatory polyphenols were monitored.
Resveratrol (3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene), a compound found in many plants, has been shown to prevent coronary heart diseases and to exert a variety of antiinflammatory and anticancerogenic effects. It is effective in lowering the level of serum lipids and in inhibiting platelet aggregation. We evaluated the effect of trans-resveratrol on the production of free radicals in pig blood platelets and showed that resveratrol inhibited the production of different reactive oxygen species (O·2H2O2, singlet oxygen and organic radicals) measured by the luminol-dependent chemiluminescence in resting platelets (P < 0.05). Resveratrol inhibited also the generation of radicals in platelets activated by thrombin (P < 0.05). Treatment of platelets with resveratrol at concentrations of 6.25 and 12.5 μg/ml caused a statistically insignificant increase in the production of O·->2 in these cells, as measured by reduction of cytochrome c; however, at higher doses (25, 50 and 100μg/ml) resveratrol distinctly reduced the generation of O·->2 in platelets (P < 0.05). We suggest that free radicals play an important role in the reduced reactivity of blood platelets induced by resveratrol.

The role of IL-6 in mediating the anti-inflammatory effects of exercise

67%
Regular exercise offers protection against all cause mortality and there is evidence from randomised intervention studies that physical training is effective as a treatment in patients with chronic heart diseases, type 2 diabetes and symptoms related to the metabolic syndrome. Chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and cancer are associated with chronic low-grade systemic inflammation. It has been demonstrated that regular exercise induces anti-inflammatory effects with elevated levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines and suppression of TNF-alpha production. Thereby, exercise offers protection against TNF-alpha-induced insulin resistance. Otherwise, the exercise-induced production and release of IL-6 from myofibers may contribute to abrogate an atherogenic lipid profile, which is often associated with chronic diseases. This review focuses on the anti-inflammatory effects of exercise and how this may contribute to mediate the beneficial health effects of exercise training in patients with chronic diseases associated with chronic low-grade inflammation.
