Asthma is characterized by airway inflammatory infiltration, which leads to airway remodeling and airway hyperreactivity. Coleus forskohlii (CFK) has been used to treat asthma, however, the mechanism involved is not clear. To explore the antiasthma mechanism of extracts of Coleus forskohlii (ECFK),
The principal active component of isoforskolin (ISOF) is from the plant Coleus forskohlii, native to China, which has attracted much attention for its biological effects. We hypothesize that ISOF and forskolin (FSK) pretreatment attenuates inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) related to
Background and Aim
Coleus amboinicus (CA) plants are known to exert antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and demonstrate antiproliferative effects against cancer cells. This study aimed to investigate the activity of CA extract on the expression of transforming
Perilla is the genus of herbaceous plants of Lamiaceae family. The essential oil of Perilla is believed to be essential part of the herb. It was claimed to have anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperlipidemia, antioxidative and antimicrobial activities. Apart from pharmaceutical and nutrition purposes, It is
The discovery of new active compounds of natural products tends to be increasingly more challenging due to chemical complexity and unpredictable matrices. Forskolin is an active natural labdane-type diterpenoid ingredient widely used worldwide for the treatment of glaucoma, heart failure,
Background: Coleus amboinicus extracts are known to have anti-oxidant activity, anti-platelet aggregations, antibacterial, anticancer and anti-inflammation.
Objective: To
The plant Coleus forskohlii is distributed primarily in India, Thailand, China, Egypt and Brazil and has a history of use in the treatment of multiple diseases. Isoforskolin (ISOF) is the principle active component of C. forskohlii native to China and has previously been studied for its biological
Cisplatin is widely used in the treatment of various types of cancer. However, it could cause severe side effects such as ototoxicity, which greatly limit the clinical application of cisplatin. Forskolin (FSK) is a diterpene derived from the plant Coleus forskohlii, and has been proven an effective
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450s) are known to play important roles in biosynthesis of all secondary metabolites, including flavonoids. Despite this, few CYP450s have been functionally characterized in model plants and roles of fewer CYP450s are known in non-model, medicinal, and aromatic
Wound healing, a complex biological process, has attained a lot of attention as dermatologists are primarily interested in stimulated wound closure without formation of scar or a faint scar. The recent upsurgence of nanotechnology has provided novel therapeutic materials in the form of silver and
Isoforskolin was isolated from Coleus forskohlii native to Yunnan in China. We hypothesize that isoforskolin pretreatment attenuates acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin). Three acute lung injury models were used: situ perfused rat lung, rat and mouse models of endotoxic shock.
