Cyanidin-3-O-beta-glucoside (C3G) (CAS number 7084-24-4), a typical anthocyanin pigment that exists in the human diet, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory properties. However, the effect of C3G on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mastitis and the molecular mechanisms have not been investigated. In this study, we detected the protective effects of C3G on a LPS-induced mouse mastitis model and investigated the molecular mechanisms in LPS-stimulated mouse mammary epithelial cells (MMECs). Our results showed that C3G could attenuate mammary histopathologic changes and myeloperoxidase activity, and inhibit TNF-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, and IL-6 production caused by LPS. Meanwhile, C3G dose-dependently inhibited TNF-alpha and IL-6 in LPS-stimulated MMECs. C3G suppressed LPS-induced nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) activation. Furthermore, C3G disrupted the formation of lipid rafts by depleting cholesterol. Moreover, C3G activated liver X receptor (LXR)-ABCG1-dependent cholesterol efflux. Knockdown of LXR alpha abrogated the anti-infl ammatory effects of C3G. In conclusion, C3G has a protective effect on LPS-induced mastitis. The promising anti-inflammatory mechanisms of C3G are associated with upregulation of the LXR alpha-ABCG1 pathway which result in disrupting lipid rafts by depleting cholesterol, thereby suppressing toll-like receptor 4-mediated NF-kappa B and IRF3 signaling pathways induced by LPS.
