“Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the combination of APAP and SFN enhanced anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities in stimulated macrophages, which provide an important rationale to utilize drug and food in combination for prevention and/or treatment inflammation-related diseases.”
“In addition, the combination of SFN and APAP at low doses decreased intracellular ROS formation and increased the protein levels of CAT, GPx, Nrf2, NQO1, and HO-1, which were much better than APAP alone and were equivalent to SFN at full dose.”
“Results: Our results showed that the combination of SFN and APAP exhibited an inhibitory effect on inflammatory markers such as NO, iNOS, COX-2, and IL-1β, and this effect was more pronounced than the compound was used alone.”
