Abstract
Allergic inflammation of the airways has a critical role in asthma development. We investigated a suppressive effect of verproside (3,4-dihydroxy catalpol) isolated from the extract of Pseudolysimachion longifolium on asthmatic parameters-such as immunoglobulin E (IgE) level, cytokine release, eosinophilia, airway hyperresponsiveness and mucus hypersecretion-in an OVA-sensitized/challenged mouse model. Verproside significantly inhibited the increase of total IgE and the cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and also effectively suppressed airway hyperresponsiveness, eosinophilia and mucus hypersecretion in OVA-induced asthmatic mice. The efficacy of verproside was comparable to montelukast, an anti-asthmatic drug that is currently available. These results suggest that verproside could be a major marker in herbal medicines that are used for asthma treatment, and could also act as a lead for anti-asthmatic drugs.
