The anti-inflammatory activity of the methanol extract of Nelumbo nucifera rhizome as well as of betulinic acid, a steroidal triterpenoid isolated from it, were evaluated on carrageenin and serotonin induced rat paw edema. Methanol extract at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg and betulinic acid at doses of
This work aimed to establish a systematic strategy to enrich and separate quercetin-3-O-β-d-glucuronide (Q3GA) from lotus leaves with macroporous resin and semi-preparative HPLC. Six resins were tested, and LX-5 was chosen as the appropriate resin for Q3GA based on the adsorption and desorption
Lotus seed has long been used in traditional medicine and cuisine. In this study, lotus seed protein (LSP) was isolated and evaluated its anti-inflammatory effect in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. LSP isolate (LSPI) treatment in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages resulted
Bee pollen (BP) is collected by honeybees from flower pollen mixed with nectar and its secretions with extensive nutritional and therapeutic properties. Lipids are known to be critical contributors for the therapeutic effects of BP and vary depending on different plant sources; however, lipid
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the hepatoprotective effect mechanisms of Nelumbo nucifera leaves extract (NLE) in experimental alcoholic steatohepatitis animal models. We found that the NLE contained polyphenols (phenolic acids and flavonoids), and more than 70% of the main functional
A novel lotus plumule polysaccharide (LPPS) was purified, characterised and cultured with RAW264.7 macrophages to evaluate its anti-inflammatory characteristics. LPPS was purified using Sepharose 6B gel filtration and dissolved into two major components, fraction-1 (F1) and fraction-2 (F2). The
OBJECTIVE
the multifunctional potential of neferine derived from the embryo of Nelumbo nucifera seeds for the age-related neurodegenerative disorders, in vivo anti-amnesic activities and in vitro cholinesterases (ChEs)- and β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1)-inhibitory activities, as well as
Lotus nelumbo (LN) (Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.) is an aquatic crop that is widely distributed throughout Asia and India, and various parts of this plant are edible and medicinal. It is noteworthy that different organs of this plant are used in traditional herbal medicine or folk recipes to cure
BACKGROUND
Lotus plumule is widely used as traditional Chinese medicine. Among the active components in lotus plumule, polysaccharides exhibit promising potential for its potent anti-inflammatory effects. However, the anti-inflammatory mechanism of purified polysaccharides from lotus plumule remains
Leaf extract of Nelumbo nucifera (NLE) has been demonstrated to possess anti-atherosclerosis, improve alcohol-induced steatohepatitis, prevent high-fat diet-induced obesity, and inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of human breast cancer cells. This study determines the chemopreventive
Inflammation is a serious health issue worldwide that induces many diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), sepsis, acute pancreatitis and lung injury. Thus, there is a great deal of interest in new methods of limiting inflammation. In this study, we investigated the leaves of Nelumbo
A novel lotus plumule polysaccharide (LPPS) was administered to non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice for 15weeks to evaluate the protective effects of LPPS on type 1 diabetes. After the 15-week feeding experiment, tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 expressions in the spleen, liver
Nuciferine, a major aporphine alkaloid of the leaves of Nelumbo nucifera, was found to decrease serum urate levels and improved kidney function, as well as inhibited system and renal interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion in potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemic mice. Furthermore, nuciferine reversed
Bee pollen (BP) collected from different floras possesses various potential bioactivities, but the mechanism-related research on anti-inflammatory effects is limited. Here, three types of BP originating from Camellia sinensis L. (BP-Cs), Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn. (BP-Nn), and
OBJECTIVE
Nelumbo leaves have been used in traditional medicine to treat bleeding, gastritis, hemorrhoids, and halitosis. However, their mechanisms have not been elucidated.
METHODS
The present study prepared two Nelumbo leaf extracts (NLEs) using water or 50% ethanol. Inflammatory response was
