(E)-2-Methoxy-4-(3-(4-methoxyphenyl) prop-1-en-1-yl) phenol attenuates PMA-induced inflammatory responses in human monocytic cells through PKCδ/JNK/AP-1 pathways

MMPP inhibits inflammatory responses in THP-1 cells by mitigating PMA-induced activation of PKCδ and JNK and nuclear translocation of AP-1. PMA induced the translocation of PKC from the cytosol to the membrane and phosphorylated JNK. MMPP inhibited PMA-induced membrane translocation of PKCδ, phosphorylation of JNK, and nuclear translocation of AP-1, resulting in downregulation of cyclooxygenase-2 and chemokine ligand 5 production.103
