Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was used as a solvent to prepare apigenin test samples with different concentrations and luteolin test samples with different concentrations. 9 batches of experiments were performed, which respectively were Batch 1 to Batch 9. There were 6 independent experiments in each batch of experiments.
In each independent experiment, inhibition rate of an apigenin test sample with a specific concentration on keratinocyte proliferation and inhibition rate of a luteolin test sample with a specific concentration on keratinocyte proliferation were determined, and inhibition rate of a combination of an apigenin test sample with the said specific concentration and a luteolin test sample with the said specific concentration on keratinocyte proliferation was determined. Between the independent experiments, concentrations of apigenin test samples used were different, and concentrations of luteolin test samples used were also different, however, mole ratios or weight ratios of apigenin test samples to luteolin test samples were the same.
Moreover, between the batches of experiments, mole ratios or weight ratios of apigenin test samples to luteolin test samples were different.
The experimental operation is described as follows:
5×103 keratinocytes, HaCaT cells, were inoculated in a 96-well culture plate and then placed in a 37° C. and 5% CO2 incubator for culturing overnight, and cell numbers at this time point (T0) was used as a benchmark for cell proliferation.
After overnight culture, a test sample was added to the cells in the culture plate (refer to Table 1, and the cells of the control group were only treated with dimethyl sulfoxide) for co-culturing for 48 hours (T48). After that, the supernatant in the culture plate was removed.
After the supernatant was removed, 50 μL MTT solution (0.5 mg/mL; Life Technologies Cat. No. M-6494) was added to cells and then the culture plate was placed in a 37° C. and 5% CO2 incubator for culturing for 1.5 hours. After that, 150 μL DMSO (J. T. Baker, Cat. No. 9224-03) was added to the cells in the culture plate and shaken for 5 minutes.
Thereafter, the absorbance of each well of the culture plate was determined at 570 nm by a continuous wavelength microplate reader, and inhibition rate on cell proliferation was calculated through the following formula:
Inhibition rate on cell proliferation=T48 Control group570 nm−T48 Experimental group570 nm)/(T48 Control group570 nm−T0 Control group570 nm)
Inhibition rate of each test sample on cell proliferation is shown in the following Table 1.

Between the independent experiments, concentrations of apigenin test samples used were different, and concentrations of luteolin test samples used were also different, however, mole ratios or weight ratios of apigenin test samples to luteolin test samples were the same.
Moreover, between the batches of experiments, mole ratios or weight ratios of apigenin test samples to luteolin test samples were different.
5×104 macrophages, RAW264.7 cells, were inoculated in a 96-well culture plate and then placed in a 37° C. and 5% CO2 incubator for culturing overnight.
After overnight culture, the supernatant was removed, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (50 ng/mL) and a test sample was added to the cells (refer to Table 2, and the cells of the induced group were treated with lipopolysaccharide and dimethyl sulfoxide while the cells of the control group were only treated with dimethyl sulfoxide) for reaction for 24 hours.
Thereafter, the supernatant of each well in the culture plate was transferred to a new culture plate and reacted with Griess reagent (Promega, Cat. No. G2930), respectively, and then the absorbance of each well of the culture plate was determined at 540 nm by a continuous wavelength microplate reader to evaluate the content of nitric oxide (NO), and anti-inflammatory activity was calculated through the following formula:
Anti-inflammation=(Induced group540 nm−Experimental group540 nm)/(Induced group540 nm−Control group540 nm)

Evaluation of Synergistic Effects of Apigenin and Luteolin
In this experiment, the synergistic effects of apigenin and luteolin were evaluated by CalcuSyn software (BIOSOFT).
CalcuSyn software is an analysis software which is commonly used to analyze the drug dosage effect of single drug and multiple drugs at present. CalcuSyn software can be used to analyze drug complex interactions and automatically quantify various phenomena such as synergism and inhibition. CalcuSyn software can process the data of individual drugs and combination drugs with constant-ratio or on-constant-ratio, and can evaluate the interaction of combination drugs by the combination index (CI) (Chou and Talalay, Adv. Enzyme Regul. 22:27-55 (1984) calculated by CalcuSyn software. Calculation formula for the combination index is shown in the following:
Combination index=C1/IC1+C2/IC2
C1 and C2 are the respective concentrations of the first compound and the second compound at which the activity of achieving a specific physiological or medical purpose is 50% (or 75%, or 90%) when the first compound and the second compound are analyzed in combination; IC1 and IC2 are the respective concentrations at which the activity of achieving a specific physiological or medical purpose of the first compound and the second compound is 50% (or 75%, or 90%) when the first compound and the second compound are independently analyzed.
Combination index is less than 1, representing that the two compounds have a synergistic effect for specific physiological or medical purposes, combination index is equal to 1, representing that the two compounds have an additive effect for a specific physiological or medical purpose, and combination index is greater than 1, representing that the two compounds have an antagonistic effect on specific physiological or medical purposes (Ting-Chao Chou; Cancer Res; 70(2) Jan. 15, 2010).
The experimental results of the 9 batches shown in Table 1 in Example 1 were analyzed by CalcuSyn software to calculate the respective combination indexes of apigenin and luteolin combined in different ratios for inhibiting skin cell proliferation.
The respective combination indexes of apigenin and luteolin combined in different ratios for inhibiting skin cell proliferation calculated by CalcuSyn are shown in the following Table 3.
According to Table 3, it is known that when the mole ratio of apigenin to luteolin is 2-10:1, apigenin and luteolin have a synergistic effect on inhibiting skin cell proliferation. In contrast, when the mole ratios of apigenin to luteolin are 1:1, 20:1, or 1:2-20, apigenin and luteolin have no synergistic effect on inhibiting skin cell proliferation, and even result in an antagonistic effect.
The experimental results of the 9 batches shown in Table 2 in Example 2 were analyzed by CalcuSyn software to calculate the respective combination indexes of apigenin and luteolin combined in different ratios for anti-inflammation.
The respective combination indexes of apigenin and luteolin combined in different ratios for anti-inflammation calculated by CalcuSyn are shown in the following Table 4.
According to Table 4, it is known that when the mole ratio of apigenin to luteolin is 2-20:1, apigenin and luteolin have a synergistic effect on anti-inflammation. In contrast, when the mole ratio of apigenin to luteolin is 1:1 or 1:2-20, apigenin and luteolin have no synergistic effect on anti-inflammation, and even result in an antagonistic effect.
Based on the foregoing results, it is clear that, in terms of inhibiting skin cell proliferation and anti-inflammation, not all combinations of apigenin and luteolin in any ratio can have a synergistic effect, but apigenin and luteolin have to be in specific combination ratio for them to work synergistically. Furthermore, when the mole ratio of apigenin to luteolin is about 2-20:1, apigenin and luteolin can have synergistic effects on inhibiting skin cell proliferation and/or anti-inflammation.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the disclosed embodiments. It is intended that the specification and examples be considered as exemplary only, with a true scope of the disclosure being indicated by the following claims and their equivalents.
