Parthenolide Inhibits the LPS-induced Secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α and NF-κB Nuclear Translocation in BV-2 Microglia

Zusammenfassung:Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium [L.] Sch. Bip. [Asteraceae]) is a popular herbal treatment used to prevent and treat headache and migraine. Parthenolide (PTN), the sesquiterpene lactonic derivative that is the plant's major component, might be one of the ingredients that act on mediators of inflammation. In the present study, in cultured lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐stimulated BV‐2 microglia pretreatment with PTN caused a dose‐dependent reduction of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) secretion (29% by 200 nm, p
