Botryococcus terribilis Ethanol Extract Exerts Anti-inflammatory Effects on Murine RAW264 Cells.

ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of Botryococcus terribilis ethanol extract (BTEE) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in RAW264 cells. BTEE significantly attenuated LPS-induced nitric oxide production and inflammatory cytokines release, including Ccl2, Cox2, and Il6. On the other hand, several anti-inflammatory mediators, such as Pgc1β and Socs1, were increased in BTEE-treated cells. Further, we performed an untargeted whole-genome microarray analysis to explore the anti-inflammatory molecular mechanism of BTEE. Enrichment analysis showed BTEE significantly downregulated 'response to stimulus', 'locomotion', and 'immune system response' and upregulated 'cell cycle' gene ontologies in both 6- and 17-h post-LPS stimulatio
