Objective To investigate the effect of Naoxintong Capsule(Chinese prepared medicine for atherosclerosis) on cell vitality and inflammatory reaction of THP-1 macrophages induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein(ox-LDL).Methods The THP-1 original macrophages were divided into seven groups: control group
ox-LDL group(50mg/L ox-LDL intervention for 24h)
Naoxintong group Ⅰ
Ⅱ
Ⅲ
Ⅳ(0.125g/L
0.25g/L
0.5 g/L
1.0 g/L Naoxintong and 50mg/L ox-LDL incubated with macrophages for 24h)
atorvastatin group(atorvastatin 1μmol/L and 50mg/L ox-LDL incubated with macrophages for 24h).THP-1 macrophages vitality was tested with MTT colorimetric method and the contents of IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay respectively.Results Naoxintong has slight cytoprotection effect and inhibits inflammatory reaction of THP-1 macrophages induced by ox-LDL in a mode of dose-dependence
and the most obvious effect was in a dose of 1.0g/L.Conclusion Naoxintong slightly inhibits the cytotoxicity and inflammatory reaction of THP-1 macrophages induced by ox-LDL in a dose-dependent effect.
