The study was designed to test the role of 5, 2', 4'-trihydroxy-6, 7, 5'-trimethoxy flavone nanoparticle (TTF1-NP) on lipopoiysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response, and to explore the anti-inflammatory mechanism in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Inflammatory responses were induced in human hepato-cellular carcinoma HepG2 cells with LPS; Proliferation effect of TTF1-NP in LPS-stimulated HepG2 cells were detected by MTT assay; The expression of TLR4, AKT/mTOR signaling related proteins and IL-6 were detected by Western blot assay. The results showed that TTF1-NP inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells induced by LPS in a dose-dependent manner; TTF1-NP inhibited the expression of TLR4, the activation of AKT and mTOR, and expression of IL-6 in a dose-dependent manner; TTF1-NP inhibited the activation of AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and TLR4 proteins leading to suppression of IL-6 expression in HepG2 cells stimulated by insulin. These results suggest that TTF1-NP inhibited inflammatory responses from LPS treatment with a potential mechanisms in the inhibition of AKT/mTOR pathway.
