Inflammation caused by the excessive secretion of inflammatory mediators in abnormally activated macrophages promotes many diseases along with oxidative stress. Loganin, a major iridoid glycoside isolated from Cornus officinalis, has recently been reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, whereas the underlying mechanism has not yet been fully clarified. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of loganin on inflammation and oxidative stress in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. Our results indicated that loganin treatment markedly attenuated the LPS-mediated phagocytic activity and release of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E 2 , which was associated with decreased the expression of inducible NO synthase and cyclooxygenase-2. In addition, loganin suppressed the expression and their extracellular secretion of LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β. Furthermore, loganin abolished reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and promoted the activation of nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in LPS-stimulated macrophages. However, zinc protoporphyrin, a selective HO-1 inhibitor, reversed the loganin-mediated suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in LPS-treated macrophages. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the upregulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway is concerned at least in the protective effect of loganin against LPS-mediated inflammatory and oxidative stress, and that loganin can be a potential functional agent to prevent inflammatory and oxidative damage.
