Heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) is known to function as a protective molecular chaperone that is massively induced in response to misfolded proteins following cerebral ischemia. The objective of this study was to characterize HSP70 induction by Z-ligustilide and explore its potential role in
OBJECTIVE
Essential oil (EO) of Kelussia odoratissima Mozaff, whose main composition is Z-ligustilide, has been shown to have strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and potent neuroprotective properties.
METHODS
This study examined whether or not the EO could ameliorate brain damage and
Radix Angelica sinensis, known as Danggui in Chinese, has been used to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in Traditional Chinese Medicine for a long time. Modern phytochemical studies showed that Z-ligustilide (LIG) is the main lipophilic component of Danggui. In this study, we
OBJECTIVE
Ligustilide, the main lipophilic component of Danggui, has been reported to protect the brain against ischaemic injury. However, the mechanisms are unknown. Here, we investigated the roles of erythropoietin (EPO) and the stress-induced protein RTP801 in neuroprotection provided by
The present study investigated the effect of Z-Ligustilide (LIG), a characterized 3-n-alkyphthalide derivative existed in many medical Umbelliferae plants, on permanent focal ischemic brain injury in rats. Focal cerebral ischemia was induced by the occlusion of middle cerebral artery (MCA) for 24 h.
Blocking TLR4/peroxiredoxin (Prx6) signaling is proposed to be a novel therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke because extracellular Prx6 released from ischemic cells may act as an endogenous ligand for TLR4 and initiate destructive immune responses in ischemic brain. Our previous studies showed
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) excessive migration, a basic change of pathological intimal thickening, can lead to serious cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Ligustilide (LIG), the main active ingredient of angelica volatile oil, has been
Z-Ligustilide (Z-LIG) is a major component in Rhizoma Chuanxiong, which has been traditionally used as a health food supplement for the prevention of cerebrovascular disease in China. This study investigates the ability of intranasal Z-LIG pretreatment to enhance protection against neuronal damage
Z-ligustilide (LIG), the main lipophilic component of Radix Angelica sinensis, has been shown to protect against brain ischemic damage in rodents by oral and intra-peritoneal treatments. The present study aimed to confirm the therapeutic effect of LIG administered intravenously on 2h middle cerebral
Ligustilide (LIG), a main lipophilic component isolated from Cnidii Rhizoma (Cnidium officinale, rhizome) and Angelicae Gigantis Radix (Angelica gigas Nakai, root), has been shown to alleviate cerebral ischemia injury and paly a neuroprotective role. We investigated mechanisms underlying the
Background: The combination of Panax ginseng and Angelica sinensis (CPA) has been used to treat stroke for one thousand years and demonstrated clinically to have satisfied effects. However, the underlying mechanism remains
