1 Anti-inflammatory activity of anatabine via inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation. anatabine signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 Mus musculus
2 We observed that anatabine reduces pro-inflammatory cytokine production (IL-6, IL-1beta and TNF-alpha) in the plasma, kidney and spleen of the animals following the injection of LPS and concomitantly opposes STAT3 phosphorylation induced by LPS in the spleen and kidney. anatabine signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 Mus musculus
3 Moreover, an increased STAT3 phosphorylation was detected in the brains of Tg APPsw mice compared to wild-type littermates and was inhibited by anatabine treatment. anatabine signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 Mus musculus
4 Overall our data show that the anti-inflammatory activity of anatabine in vitro and in vivo is mediated in part via an inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation. anatabine signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 Mus musculus
