IL1B and Sepsis: IL-1β was also reported to be attenuated by paeoniflorin (MOL001924), a critical ingredient of monoterpene glycoside in CS and XBJI (Wang et al., 2020), thereby improving myocardial function in septic mice (Zhai and Guo, 2016), and reported to be inhibited by quercetin (MOL000098), thereby protecting mice from LPS-induced sepsis apoptosis (Wei et al., 2018); it was also reported to be decreased by ferulic acid (CIS) (MOL000389), an ingredient in DG, thereby positively modulating the inflammatory response to septic liver injury (Cao et al., 2021).
