A water-soluble polysaccharide (SPS) was purified from dried safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) and its structure was identified using a combination of chemical and instrumental analysis. SPS has a repeating backbone of 1,4,6-β-Glcp, which was attached with T-β-Glcp at its C6 position along the
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of a purified polysaccharide (SPS) from the safflower in a cellular model of steroid-associated necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH), which was established in primary murine osteoblasts suffering dexamethasone pretreatment. After treatment with SPS
A virulent strain of Diaporthe gulyae, isolated from stem cankers of sunflower and known to be pathogenic to saffron thistle, has been shown to produce both known and previously undescribed metabolites when grown in either static liquid culture or a bioreactor. Together with phomentrioloxin, a
The incidence of cardiac dysfunction after myocardial infarction (MI) continues to increase despite advances in treatment. Excessive myocardial fibrosis plays a vital role in the development of adverse cardiac remodeling and deterioration of cardiac function. Understanding the molecular and cellular
BACKGROUND
The methanol extracts of Carthamus tinctorius (MEC) have long been used in traditional medicine as anti-inflammatory agent, however, the molecular mechanism by which MEC shows anti-inflammatory action is not investigated.
OBJECTIVE
Induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) by many medicinal
Carthamus tinctorius L. (Compositae) is used in Chinese medicine to treat heart disease and inflammation. In our previous study, we found that C. tinctorius L. inhibited lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) activation, JNK expression, and apoptosis in H9c2
Safflower, Carthamus tinctorius L. (Asteraceae), is extensively cultivated in India, China, and other parts of Asia for edible oil, dyeing agent, and its medicinal value. In 2003, safflower entry (NARI-6) in the All-India Coordinated Research Project on Oilseeds (Safflower) grown in the experimental
BACKGROUND
The decoction of combined Panax notoginseng (Burk) F.H. Chen and Carthamus tinctorius L. has a history of use in traditional medicine for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVE
In this study, we investigated the
OBJECTIVE
Carthamus tinctorius L. (CT) or safflower is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. This study investigated the effects of CT extract (CTE) on ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) brain injury and elucidated the underlying mechanism.
METHODS
The I/R model was conducted by occlusion of both
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the hepatoprotective effects and mechanisms of an extract of Salvia miltiorrhiza and Carthamus tinctorius in vivo.
METHODS
C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to five groups and intraperitoneally administered 0.9% saline, Salvia miltiorrhiza and Carthamus tinctorius extract
Esophageal cancer (EC) is a common digestive tract malignant tumor and the clinical outcome of patients with EC after surgery remains unsatisfactory. Hence, it is necessary to identify some effective drugs or methods to improve the prognosis of patients with EC. In this study, we attempted to
OBJECTIVE
Carthamus tinctorius L. (C. tinctorius) is used as a food additive but also has medicinal applications. The present work was designed to investigate its probable side effects on the histology and function of the kidney in the mice.
METHODS
Sixty adult Balb/C mice were randomly distributed
