ABSTRACT

The present study investigated the effects of isoflavone derivatives (daidzein, genistein and glycitein) on the production of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and IL-8) by IL-1β-stimulated synovial cells. Synovial MH7A cells were stimulated with IL-1β in the absence or presence of isoflavone derivatives, and IL-6 and IL-8 production was measured by ELISA. The results of the present study indicated that daidzein significantly inhibited the production of IL-6, but not IL-8. Conversely, neither genistein nor glycitein exerted any inhibitory effects on the production of IL-6 or IL-8 by IL-1β-stimulated synovial cells. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the daidzein-mediated inhibition of IL-6 production, the present study examined the effects of daidzein on the phosphorylation (activation) of NF-κB p65, ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK. Daidzein sig nificantly inhibited the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and ERK1/2, but not p38 MAPK in IL-1β-stimulated MH7A cells. The present study revealed that among the isoflavone derivatives examined (daidzein, genistein and glycitein), daidzein inhibited the production of IL-6, but not IL-8, by IL-1β-stimulated synovial MH7A cells via the suppression of NF-κB p65 and ERK1/2 activation. Collectively, these results suggested that daidzein may have potential as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of arthritic disorders through its anti-inflammatory effects via the inhibition of IL-6 production.
