描述 | Liquiritigenin, a flavanone isolated from Glycyrrhiza uralensis, is a highly selective estrogen receptor β (ERbeta) agonist with an EC50 of 36.5 nM for activation of the ERE tk-Luc. The ERbeta-selectivity of liquiritigenin was due to the selective recruitment of the coactivator steroid receptor coactivator-2 to target genes[3]. Pretreatment of MC3T3-E1 cells with liquiritigenin prevented the MG-induced cell death and production of protein adduct, intracellular reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial superoxide, cardiolipin peroxidation, and TNF-α in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. In addition, liquiritigenin increased the activity of glyoxalase I inhibited by MG(Methylglyoxal). The nitric oxide and PGC-1α levels were significantly increased by liquiritigenin, suggesting that liquiritigenin may induce mitochondrial biogenesis[4]. Treatment with liquiritigenin significantly reduced the concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in serum and hippocampus. The administrations of liquiritigenin, increased levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT), and decreased Malondialdehyde (MDA) content. Mice treated with liquiritigenin showed restored levels of neurotransmitter norepinephrine (NE) and serotonin (5-HT)[5]. |
