Popis: | This study investigated the effects of systemic treatment with a new formulation of resveratrol (RSV) vehicled in rice oil (RSVO) in experimental rat models of inflammation. Male Wistar rats were evaluated in the following in vivo models: carrageenan-induced acute edema, complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA)-evoked sub-chronic edema, and CFA-induced polyarthritis. The animals were treated orally with RSVO (10–15 mg/kg) or RSV (100–200 mg/kg), depending on the experimental protocol. RSV was more effective than RSVO in carrageenan-elicited acute edema when dosed in either prophylactic or therapeutic schemes of administration. However, the repeated RSVO administration, at 10-fold lower doses, exhibited superior anti-inflammatory actions in either the sub-chronic edema or the chronic polyarthritis model elicited by CFA, when compared with RSV. The novel formulation RSVO displayed a lower plasma biotransformation when compared with the RSV-treated group—46% versus 88% of metabolites, respectively. RSVO also prevented polyarthritis-related cartilage destruction, an effect that might rely on the inhibition of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6), associated with an increase of the anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10). Noteworthy, the long-term administration of RSVO did not elicit any gastrointestinal harm. Our study revealed that RSVO was notably effective in the long-term inflammatory and degenerative responses triggered by CFA. This innovative formulation might well represent a promising alternative for treating chronic inflammatory diseases, such as arthritis. |
