LID - 10.3390/ijms20246164 [doi] LID - 6164 AB - To elucidate the effect of rice protein (RP) on the depression of inflammation, growing and adult rats were fed with caseins and RP for 2 weeks. Compared with casein, RP reduced hepatic accumulations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitro oxide (NO), and plasma activities of alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) in growing and adult rats. Intake of RP led to increased mRNA levels, and protein expressions of phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (Akt), nuclear factor-kappaB 1 (NF-alphaB1), reticuloendotheliosis viral oncogene homolog A (RelA), tumor necrotic factor alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), interleukin-6 (IL-6), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) were decreased, whereas hepatic expressions of interleukin-10 (IL-10) and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) were increased by RP. The activation of NF-kappaB was suppressed by RP through upregulation of inhibitory kappaB alpha (IkappaBalpha), resulting in decreased translocation of nuclear factor-kappaB 1 (p50) and RelA (p65) to the nucleus in RP groups. The present study demonstrates that RP exerts an anti-inflammatory effect to inhibit ROS-derived inflammation through suppression of the NF-kappaB pathway in growing and adult rats. Results suggest that the anti-inflammatory capacity of RP is independent of age.
