Methods: A total of forty-eight rats were chosen and randomly divided into six groups. The acute gout arthritis model of rats was established by injecting monosodium urate at the concentration of 25 mg/mL into the ankle joint cavity. Changes of joint swelling index at different time points and the levels of IL-1β, IL-17, TNF-α, IL-6 in serum and synovial were measured. Results: Compared with the control group, the swelling index of ankle joint and gait score in the model group was significantly enhanced at different time points (all P<0.01). Compared with the MSU group, luteolin improved the ankle swelling index of rats with acute gout arthritis (P<0.05), and significantly down-regulated the levels of IL-1β, IL-17, TNF-α, IL-6 (P<0.01). Conclusion: Luteolin can alleviate the inflammatory response of acute gouty arthritis and may be an effective drug for acute gouty arthritis.展开更多
