Background:Idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury(IDILI)is a serious side effect of drugs,Epimedii Folium(EF)is unequivocally implicated in idiosyncratic liver injury onset,potentially due to its ability to perturb the NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3(NLRP3)inflammasome.Fructus Ligustri Lucidi(FLL),a frequently used medicinal combination with EF,has not yet been investigated for its ability to ameliorate EF-associated hepatotoxicity.Aims and Objectives:Study on the mechanism of compatibility of FLL to alleviate liver injury caused by EF.Materials and Methods:Western blot was used to determine the expression of related proteins,ELISA was used to detect the secretion of related inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-18,IL-6 and TNF-α,liver injury indexes were detected and liver pathological tissue staining was used to evaluate the liver injury.Results:Our results demonstrated that EF exerted a particular augmenting effect on the stimulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome mediated by nigericin or ATP,whereas FLL suppressed the NLRP3 inflammasome stimulation.Furthermore,an equal EF to FLL ratio significantly reduced the stimulatory effects of EF.Moreover,EF has the potential to induce hepatic injury and augment pro-inflammatory cytokine synthesis in rats subjected to LPS.However,when combined with FLL,the detrimental effects of EF were mitigated.Conclusions:FLL possesses the capacity to attenuate EF-associated hepatotoxicity by suppressing EF-triggered NLRP3 inflammasome activation.Thus,FLL holds promise for improving the clinical safety profile of EF,shedding light on the potential of compatibility and detoxification theories in traditional Chinese medicine.
