The flavonoid luteolin worsens chemical-induced colitis in NF-kappaB(EGFP) transgenic mice through blockade of NF-kappaB-dependent protective molecules.
The flavonoid luteolin has anti-inflammatory properties both in vivo and in vitro. However, the impact of luteolin on experimental models of colitis is unknown.To address the therapeutic impact of luteolin, NF-kappaB(EGFP) transgenic mice were fed a chow diet containing 2% luteolin- or isoflavone-fr...
