Abstract

Recently, many natural products with unique structure and promising pharmacological potential have been reported from marine-derived microorganisms. The macrolactin A (MA), 15-epi-dihydromacrolactin F (DMF) and macrolactin F (MF) were obtained from the culture broth extract of a marine sediment derived microorganism Bacillus sp. HC001. In this study, MA, DMF and MF inhibited the production and expression of proinflammatory mediators of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase–2 (COX-2) in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 and BV2 cells. Also, MA, DMF and MF exert anti-inflammatory effects through the expression of heme oxygenase (HO) -1, a stress-inducing enzyme that converts heme to carbon monoxide (CO), iron and biliberdine. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expressed by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was inhibited by increased expression of HO-1 transcription factor Nrf2 and down regulation of BTB Domain And CNC Homolog 1 (BACH1), inhibited phosphorylation of Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 7 (MAP3K7, TAK1) and nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB). These results show that MA, DMF and MF effectively inhibited TLR4 by regulating BACH1 and HO-1/Nrf2 signals in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 and BV2 cells, which suggests the possibility of use as an anti-inflammatory agent.
