Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in sera and malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSHpx) contents in liver homogenates were assayed by spectrophotometry. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-~ (TNF-~) and nitric oxide (NO) levels in sera were determined using ELISA. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) produced by peritoneal macrophages was determined by the method of 3^H-infiltrated cell proliferation. The nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-xB) p65 in liver tissue was analyzed with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Liver samples collected were stained with hematoxylin and eosin.RFSULTS: FR167653 (50, 100, 150 mg/kg) could significantly decrease the serum transaminase (ALl', AS'I-) activity and MDA content in liver homogenate, and improve reduced GSHpx level of liver homogenate. Liver histopathological examinatdon showed FR167653 (100, 150 mg/kg) significantly reduced inflammatory cells infiltration and liver cells necrosis. FR167653 (50, 100, 150 mg/kg) significantly lowered TNF-α and NO levels in serum, and IL-1 produced by peritoneal macrophages. Moreover, expression of NF-xBmRNA in liver tissue of ILl induced by BCG plus LPS was significantly reduced by FR167653.CONCLUSION: All results showed that FR167653 had significant inhibitorv action an ILI in mice.展开更多
