Abstract
Antiatherosclerotic effects of ethanolic extracts of Artemisia princeps Pampanini cv. Sajabal (ESJ) were investigated in low-density lipoprotein receptor deficient (LDLR -/-) mice. The Western dietinduced high levels of total cholesterol and triglyceride were similar in the ESJ and control groups. However, circulating oxidized LDL was significantly decreased in the ESJ group (p < 0.05). ESJ also markedly decreased aortic expression levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and reduced the aortic lesion formation and macrophage accumulation by 36.7% (p < 0.05) and 43% (p < 0.01) in the control group, respectively. Additionally, ESJ inhibited atherogenic properties with cytokine-induced surface expression of cell adhesion molecules, chemokines, and monocyte adhesion to the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), and simultaneously suppressed nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation. These results suggest that ethanolic extracts of Artemisia princeps Pampanini cv. Sajabal contributes to the antiatherosclerotic and anti-inflammatory activities in LDLR -/- mice.
