From: Myrtenal and β-caryophyllene oxide screened from Liquidambaris Fructus suppress NLRP3 inflammasome components in rheumatoid arthritis

NLRP3 inflammasome pathway was activated in the ankle joint synovial tissue of the adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA) rats. Treatment with petroleum ether extract of LF (PEL) significantly suppressed the expression of IL-1β, caspase-1 p20 and NLRP3, whereas treatment with ethyl acetate extract of LF (EEL) and water extract of LF (WEL) did not show significant improvement. Data were recorded as mean ± SEM. Differences were assessed by Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test and one-way ANOVA, *P < 0.05 vs MC. (n = 3)
