Description

Purpurogallin (2,3,4,5 tetrahydroxybenzo[7]annulen 6 one) is a benzotropolone containing the natural product, which occurs in the nut gall of Quercus spp. Purpurogallin is synthesized by the chemical oxidation of pyrogallol and has been shown to have biological properties, such as hydroxyl radical scavenging properties and to protect erythrocytes against lysis induced by peroxyl radicals. Purpurogallin can inhibit 2-hydroxy and 4-hydroxyestradiol methylation by catechol-O-methyltransferase, human immunodeficiency virus 1, integrase and prolyl endopeptidases. In addition, purpurogallin has also been known to have anticancer activities through the inhibition of the DNA synthesis of tumor cells (20), tyrosine-specific protein kinases and the interaction between Bcl xL and BH3 peptides. A number of studies have reported the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of purpurogallin (15,23 27); however, the actual molecular mechanisms involving signal transduction cascades underlying the purpurogallin induced anti-inflammatory effects have not yet been elucidated.

BV2 murine microglial cells were used for activity evaluation. Cell viability was measured based on the formation of blue formazan metabolized from colorless MTT (Sigma Aldrich) by mitochondrial dehydrogenases, which are active only in live cells. In brief, BV2 cells were plated into 24 well plates at a density of 2x105 cells/well for 24 h and then washed. The cells incubated with various concentrations of purpurogallin for 1 h were treated with or without 0.5 μg/ml LPS for 24 h and then incubated in 0.5 mg/ml MTT solution. Three hours later, the supernatant was removed and the forma¬tion of formazan was measured at 540 nm using a microplate reader.
