Rooperol tetraacetate decreases cytokine mRNA levels and binding capacity of transcription factors in U937 cells
We have previously described inhibition of the synthesis of three acute-phase inflammatory cytokines in human and rat macrophages by acetate esters of rooperol, a dicatechol of plant origin. Analysing the mechanism of anticytokine activity of rooperol, we compared levels of TNF α , IL-1 β and IL-6 m...
