ObjectivesLow-intensity pulsed ultrasound (US) has been reported to promote periodontal tissue regeneration and reduce inflammation in soft tissues and in bone infectious diseases. Here we investigated the effect of low-intensity pulsed US on the expression of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory factors in U937 macrophage cells.MethodsU937 cells were stimulated with different concentrations of LPS and exposed to different intensities of low-intensity pulsed US. Cell viability and apoptosis of U937 cells were determined by cell-counting kit assays and flow cytometry. A real-time polymerase chain reaction and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to test the expression of inflammatory factors. The expression levels of toll-like receptor 4, p65, p-IB, and IB were assessed by western blots.ResultsTumor necrosis factor began to increase in U937 cells on induction with 1-g/mL LPS. Low-intensity pulsed US at the intensity of 60 mW/cm(2) was more effective in reducing interleukin 8 (IL-8) expression. Furthermore, LPS inhibited the viability and increased apoptosis of U937 cells, whereas low-intensity pulsed US significantly reversed these effects (P
