Regarding your query, I found a similar question on RG and I am quoting a response here. Hopefully you can benefit from this previous discussion by following the link.
If you want to examine the anti-inflammatory properties of your plant compounds on MSU crystal-induced inflammation then monocytic cell lines might be your best choice. You can compare LPS- vs. MSU crystal -induced cytokine production (e.g. TNFa, IL-1beta, IL-8) using mouse RAW264.7 or human THP-1 monocytic cell lines. Good luck with your experiments!
