description | Acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome are clinically life-threatening diseases. Corilagin, a major polyphenolic compound obtained from the herb <i>Phyllanthus urinaria</i>, has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, and in this study, we sought to evaluate the protective effects and mechanisms of corilagin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI in mice. ALI was induced in the mice by the intratracheal administration of LPS, and following 30 min of LPS challenge, corilagin (5 and 10 mg/kg body weight) was administered intraperitoneally. At 6 h post-LPS administration, lung tissues were collected for analysis. Corilagin treatment significantly attenuated inflammatory cell infiltration, the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, and oxidative stress in lung tissues. In addition, corilagin inhibited the LPS-induced expression of NOX2, ERK, and NF-<i>κ</i>B. Corilagin has anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects, and can effectively reduce ALI via attenuation of the NOX2 and ERK/NF-<i>κ</i>B signaling pathways. |
