Endometritis is a common disease that endangers human and animal health. Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G), a kind of anthocyanin, exists in a variety of plants and shows many biological activities. Here, we investigated the effect and mechanism of C3G on LPS-induced endometritis in mice. The results showed that C3G significantly decreased wet to dry weight (W/D) ratio of uterine, improved uterine pathological injury, and inhibited MPO activity. Further mechanism investigation showed that the activation of NFκB pathway and the levels of TNF-a, IL-1β, and IL-6 were significantly suppressed after C3G treatment. Conversely, C3G promoted LPS-induced the activation of the PPARγ/ABCA1 pathway. Interestingly, the anti-inflammatory effect of C3G was significantly weakened by GW9662, a PPARγ inhibitor. In addition, the anti-oxidative stress effect of C3G was also found. For the first time, our results showed that treatment with C3G might be a new strategy for treating endometritis.

The bovine uterus is susceptible to bacterial infections after calving, particularly from (), which often results in endometritis. Additionally, postpartum stress in cows can elevate cortisol levels in the body, inhibiting endometrial regeneration and reducing immune function, thereby further increasing the risk of infection. Selenium (Se) is a common feed additive in dairy farming, known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is one of the main factors inducing endometritis in dairy cows. However, the specific pathogenesis of LPS-induced endometritis in dairy cows is not fully understood. The objective of this study was to establish an in vitro endometritis model using LPS-induced bovine endometrial epithelial (BEND) cells.

Endometritis is one of the common reproductive diseases in human and animal. In recent years, a number of studies have found that Schisandra B (Sch B), as a natural Chinese medicine extract, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and other biological activities. Based on the above, in this study, mice were used to conduct an in vivo experiment to investigate the effect and mechanism of Sch B on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endometritis.

Endometritis, an inflammatory disease affecting dairy cattle, causes substantial economic losses in the dairy industry. Conventional treatment using uterine infusion of antibiotics often results in bacterial resistance and antibiotic residues in milk. Thus, identifying novel, effective therapeutic targets for endometritis in dairy cows is necessary.
