The current study aimed at investigating the effects of flavonoids from (FAC) on the proliferation, the contents, and gene expression levels of cytokines, secretion of surface stimulating factors, cell cycle, and the expression level of the NF-B signalling pathway in RAW264.7 cells. Our results revealed that compared with control group, the contents of IL-6, IL-1, TNF-, and NO and the mRNA expression levels of IL-6, IL-1, TNF-, and iNOS in FAC-treated groups significantly increased ( < 0.
