Iridoid glycoside (IG) is the major active fraction extracted from the leaves of  Syringa oblata Lindl . In view of its antimicrobial and antidiarrheal potential, it could be beneficial for the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). In the present study, IG (20, 40, and 80 mg/kg) was administered orally for 14 days to dextran sulfate sodium- (DSS-) induced colitis rats. The anti-inflammatory effects of IG on DSS-induced UC were evaluated by comparing observations in DSS-induced colitis and drug-treated groups using disease activity index (DAI), macroscopic score, histological analysis, and apoptosis assay. To elucidate the antioxidant mechanisms of IG on NOX-dependent ROS production, the activities of 8-OHdG, NOX1, and NOX2 in DSS-induced colitis were determined. The levels of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-12p40, and IL-13 were detected. The inflammation-associated protein and mRNA expressions of TLR-2, TLR-4, MyD88, and NF- κ Bp65 were assessed by immunohistochemistry and real-time quantitative PCR, respectively. The results suggested that IG treatment significantly reduced DAI, macroscopic score, and histological damage compared to untreated animals ( p  < 0.01), whereas administration of IG remarkably attenuated the upregulation of 8-OHdG, NOX1, and NOX2 and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-12p40, and IL-13 in DSS-treated rats in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, IG treatment could dose dependently suppress the protein and mRNA levels of TLR-2, TLR-4, MyD88, and NF- κ Bp65. The dose of IG that produced the most significant protective effect was 80 mg/kg. The above results demonstrate that IG exerts its inhibitory effect on cell apoptosis, oxidative stress, and proinflammatory cytokines in DSS-induced colitis through modulation of the TLR2/4/MyD88/NF- κ B signaling pathway.
