Abstract

Inflammation is generally thought to be involved in the development of several chronical diseases, therefore, phytochemicals to modulate immune responses has attracted great interests. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the potential anti-inflammatory effects of wine supplemented using ball-milled achene on modulating NO production and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression. Ball-milled achenes were added in strawberry must prior to fermentation, and the wine samples were then concentrated and extracted with water and/or ethanol prior to analysis. Bioactivities of wine extracts were evaluated using the cell viability assay, cell cycle measurements, NO production and iNOS expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Treatments of achenes supplemented strawberry wine extract up to 100 μg/mL inhibited the proliferation of LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cell via affecting the progression of cell cycle. Moreover, no detectable cytotoxicity in RAW264.7 cells was observed. The supplemented wine extract suppressed the action of LPS and led to a decreased NO production in stimulated cells. The inhibitory effect of the wine extract on NO production was determined to be a 25–40% decrease in the level of 25–100 μg/mL, in contrast to a 10% decrease for conventional wine samples. Additionally, an alcoholic wine extract (100 μg/mL) led to a 40.31% decrease in iNOS expression in LPS-stimulated cells, which was more effective than the same dose of tocopherol. The results show that strawberry wine supplemented with ball-milled achenes causes a substantial inhibition of NO production, and this biofunction is exerted via the down-regulation of iNOS expression.
