Abstract

Polyozellin isolated from Polyozellus multiplex (Thelephoraceae) displays potent anti-inflammatory effects in murine macrophages. Here we evaluated whether polyozellin has the potential to ameliorate diseases characterized by mucosal inflammation in intestinal epithelial HT-29 cells. Polyozellin significantly inhibited tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced interleukin-8 secretion and mRNA expression. Moreover, polyozellin suppressed the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-7 mRNA and extracellular pro-matrix metalloproteinase-7 secretion. A signal transduction study revealed that polyozellin significantly attenuates TNF-α-mediated p38 phosphorylation, inhibitory factor κBα degradation, and nuclear factor-κB-mediated transcriptional activation. Collectively, these results suggest that polyozellin has the potential to attenuate intestinal inflammation and shed light on the novel signal pathway evoked by TNF-α during intestinal inflammation.
