Abstract EN
Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) plays an important role in inflammation, which has also been considered as a major driver of breast cancer disease progression.
Radix Glycyrrhiza (RG) has been broadly used for its anti-inflammatory and antitumorigenic effects.
However, the mechanisms of regulation of iNOS in inflammation and cancer have not been fully explored.
Total flavonoids isolated from RG (TFRG) exhibited anti-inflammatory activity through the regulation of ERK/NF-κB/miR-155 signaling and suppression of iNOS expression in LPS/IFN-γ stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages without cytotoxicity.
TFRG also markedly reduced tumor mass of breast cancer cell MDA-MB-231 xenografts with suppression of iNOS expression, formation of 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), and inactivation of protumorigenic JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.
These results suggested that TFRG limited the development of breast cancer and inflammation due to its property of iNOS inhibition.
