IL-37 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that was only recently identified, and it is highly expressed in tissues from patients with inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Inflammatory cytokines and inflammatory stimuli can induce the upregulation of IL-37. However, it has not been reported whether
A method has been developed for the determination of triptonide in the traditional Chinese herb Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F. by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography combined with cloud point extraction. The analyte was extracted at pH 3.0 by micelles of the nonionic surfactant
An isocratic high-performance liquid chromatographic method for determination of triptolide and triptonide in human plasma is described. Plasma samples were extracted with OasisHLB solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges. After pretreatment, they were separated on a SymmetryShieldRP(18) column with
A simple and sensitive method for the determination of triptolide, wilforlide A and triptonide in human plasma was developed and validated, using high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS). Plasma samples were purified using solid-phase extraction
Triptonide (Tri) extracted from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook inhibited the proliferation of mouse splenocytes induced by suboptimal concentration of concanavalin A or lipopolysaccharide at concentrations of 0.02, 0.1, and 0.5 microgram.ml-1. It showed a suppressive effect on one way mixed lymphocyte
OBJECTIVE
The male contraceptive mechanism in rats of triptonide, isolated from Multiglycosides of Tripterygium wilfordii (GTW), was investigated.
METHODS
The dosage of triptonide was 200 micrograms/(kg.d), fed for 8 weeks via gastric intubation. Sperm counts, sperm motility, and sperm silver
The diterpenoid triepoxides are the major active constituents of Tripterygium wilfordii with potent antitumor and immune activities. But the strong toxicity of these compounds has restricted their application to a great extent. In order to find more effective compounds with less toxicity, structural
Triptonide, isolated from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook., was found to show significant antiinflammatory, immunosuppression and antitumor activities. A RP-HPLC method was applied to determine the plasma concentration of triptonide at different times in rats. Concentration-time curves after i.v., 0.7,
Advanced stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has a poor prognosis. Triptonide ("TN") is a small molecule monomer extract from the ancient Chinese herb Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. We show that TN, at nanomolar concentrations, potently inhibited survival and proliferation of multiple
Lyn is a proto-oncogene overexpressed and constitutively activated in lymphoma, and plays an important role in lymphoma initiation and malignant progression. Hence, the oncogenic Lyn has recently been targeted for novel anti-lymphoma drug discovery; however, the effective Lyn-targeted drug for
Abnormal activation of canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling is implicated in many diseases including cancer. As a result, therapeutic agents that disrupt this signaling pathway have been highly sought after. Triptonide is a key bioactive small molecule identified in a traditional Chinese medicine named
Leukemia cells aberrantly overexpress senescence-suppression telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and down-regulate key senescence-promoting genes to escape complete senescence, resulting in immortalization and malignant progression. Accordingly, induction of complete senescence is a sensible
Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignancy arise from bone and is one of the causes of cancer-related deaths. Triptonide (TN), a diterpenoid epoxide presented in Tripterygium wilfordii, is shown to possess
Gastric cancer ranks as the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The uncontrolled tumor growth and robust metastasis are key factors to cause the cancer patient death. Mechanistically, aberrant activation of Notch and NF-κB signaling pathways plays pivotal roles in the initiation
The half-effective dose(ED50), therapeutic index(TI) and certain safety factor(CSF) of 7 diterpene lactone epoxide compounds with antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive action extracted from Tripterygium wilfordii (TW) were assayed using croton oil-induced ear swelling and hemolysin-antibody
