    Abstract:

    Armillaria mellea is a well-known edible and medicinal mushroom,Whereas little information is available in regard to A. mellea's anti-inflammatory activity. In this study we explored the anti-inflammatory activity of n-hexane,chloroform,ethyl acetate and n-butyl alcohol extracts from Armillaria mellea. Our work will provide a scientific basis for screening new natural anti-inflammatory substances and a new medical application of Armillaria mellea. MTT colorimetric assay was applied to measure the cytotoxic effects of different extracts. Their anti-inflammatory activities were evaluated via inhibition against production of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced nitric oxide(NO),tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6) and interleukin-1beta(IL-1β) in murine macrophage-like cell line RAW264.7 cells. Cytotoxic assay showed that only n-hexane and chloroform extracts in a high concentration(300 μg/mL) have slight cytotoxic effects(inhibited 10.7% & 17% of cell viability) in RAW264.7 cells. As to the anti-inflammatory activity,except to the n-butyl alcohol extract,the other three extracts all can dose-dependently inhibited LPS-induced NO,TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β production. Among them,the ethyl acetate extract own both safty and anti-inflammatory activity.
