Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic, systemic, and inflammatory autoimmune disorder that affects 1% of the adult population worldwide. Osteoarthritis is a multifactorial disease with high morbidity that is characterized by degradation of the matrix and destruction of articular cartilage. In this study, we examined the inhibition effect of Trachelospermi Caulis on the inflammation(, , NO), cartilage protection(MMP-13), and cell death in arthritis. RAW 264.7 and SW 1353 cells were cultivated in DMAE(GibcoBRL, USA) with 5% FBS and Fungizone in , 5% CO2. THP-1 cells were cultivated in RPMI(GibcoBRL, USA) with 5% FBS and Fungizone in , 5% CO2. Activity of caspase-3, XIAP, Cytochrome C in the cell was examined by using western blot. The results obtained were as Follows; Concentration of nitric oxide in Trachelospermi Caulis treatment group significantly decreased compared with that of non-treatment group (P<0.05). In treated group, Concentration of Trachelospermi Caulis was not significantly associated with cell death. Concentration of and in Trachelospermi Caulis treatment group decreased significantly compared with that of none treatment group (P<0.05). Relative density of MMP-13 in Trachelospermi Caulis treatment group decreased significantly compared with that of none treatment group and dose-response relationship was observed. After treatment of staurosporin in SW1353 which increases cell death, in Trachelospermi Caulis treated group, the cell death was effectively decreased. In conclusion, these results suggest that Trachelospermi Caulis inhibit inflammation and cell death in arthritis. More researches about effect of Trachelospermi Caulis are considered to need.
