Stimulation by LPS induced the production of inflammatory cytokines, and the SALF was able to modulate TNF-␣ production in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Microarray studies revealed a transcriptional profile which was assessed in the presence or absence of the SALF by a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Pretreatment with the SALF significantly downregulated the expression of nuclear factor (NF)-B in the presence of LPS. In contrast, pretreatment with the SALF significantly elevated the expressions of Anp32a, CLU, and SLPI, which are considered to be immune-related genes in the presence of LPS. Inhibitor studies suggested that the SALF's modulation of LPS-induced TNF-␣ production involved a complex mechanism with mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase, calcium, and protein kinase C. The data from this study, which imply that the SALF can suppress TNF-␣ production, suggest a role for the SALF in the defense mechanism which can potentially be applied to mammals for endotoxin treatment.
