The traditional role of Lamium album L. (white dead nettle, Lamiaceae) in providing relief from pain in rheumatism as well as vaginal and cervical inflammation was described. The aim of the study was to screen for the anti-inflammatory bioactivity of compounds isolated from aqueous-methanolic extract of Lamium album herb in human neutrophils (PMNs). The effect of the compounds on the inhibition of selected inflammatory markers released by neutrophils, such as cytokines (IL-8, TNF-&alpha:), was studied. The molecular masses and the purity of compounds were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection and mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-MSn). The level of cytokines production after incubation with the compounds (1&ndash:25 µ:M) was measured by ELISA. Two derivatives of quercetin, not previously described, were isolated in this study. Phenylpropanoids (verbascoside and phlinoside D), as well as iridoids (lamalbid, and shanzhiside methyl ester), and flavonoids revealed to be more significant inhibitors of IL-8 secretion than TNF-&alpha:. The compounds at a concentration of 25 µ:M, except for shanzhiside methyl ester (6), inhibited secretion of IL-8 in the range from 29.1 to 50.0%. In conclusion, L. album might be a valuable source of bioactive compounds and may provide constituents to limit noninfectious inflammation associated with the aforementioned diseases.
