Serious poisoning may occur following the consumption of Chinese herbal medicines (CHM) containing anticholinergics. The great majority of cases are probably related to the use of yangjinhua, the dried flower of Datura metel L, for treating bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, pains and flu
Recent findings of a link between high blood pressure (BP) and dementia have given new prospects. The aim of this study is to analyze a mixture of Chinese herbs, Tianma Gouteng Decoction (TGD), which was traditionally used to treat hypertension, and investigate its relation to ameliorating cognitive
Ameliorating effects were investigated of the cognitive-enhancing Chinese herbs administered orally for 1 week-Panax ginseng (PG), Panax notoginseng (PNG), Dioscorea opposita (DO), Gastrodia elata (GE), Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM), Acorus gramineus (AG), Coptis chinensis (CC), Polygonum multiflorum
The study was to investigate the ameliorating effects of three Chinese herbs--Achyranthes bidentata (AB), Ophiopogon japonicus (OJ) and Cnidium monnieri (CM) on scopolamine (SCOP)- and MK-801-induced amnesia by using a passive avoidance task in rats. AB, OJ and CM at 0.1 and 0.3 g/kg prolonged the
Clinical trials have illustrated that Shenmayizhi decoction (SMYZ) could improve the cognitive functions in patients with dementia. However, the mechanism needs to be explored.Fifty adult male rats (Wistar strain) were divided into five groups equally and Pingandan was a secret prescription for treatment of stomach upset, nausea and vomiting for emperors in the Qing Dynasty of China. This study was to compare the effects of Pingandan with those of scopolamine and dramamine on motion sickness (MS) and nystagmus. Fourteen cats were tested in a parallel
The acute effects of DX-9386, a traditional Chinese medicinal preparation (ginseng, polygala, acorus and hoelen), were studied on learning and memory performances in passive and active avoidance tests in normal, as well as in learning-impaired, mice. A single oral administration of the prescription
Previous reports suggest that the effects of propofol, ketamine, and thiopental on airway tone may be because of modulation of parasympathetic activity. We examined if these anesthetics interact with recombinant human M1-M3 muscarinic receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-M1, M2,
V79 Chinese hamster cells were found to produce significant amounts of acetylcholine. Asynchronously growing V79 cells were treated with five different antagonists to cholinergic receptors: atropine and scopolamine, which are inhibitors of muscarinic receptors, and mecamylamine, d-tubocurarine and
OBJECTIVE
In the preliminary study, kimchi, a traditional food fermented with Chinese cabbage, protected scopolamine-induced mouse memory deficit in passive avoidance test. Therefore, we screened protective ingredients, particularly lactic acid bacteria, from Chinese cabbage kimchi against
OBJECTIVE
To investigate and analyze the clinical application of scopolamine butylbromide injection and promote the rational use of the drug.
METHODS
We classified and analyzed 3,695 cases of scopolamine butylbromide injection (effective cases only) collected over the period of January 2016 to July
The seeds of Cuscuta chinensis Lam. and C. campestris Yuncker have been commonly used as Chinese medical material for preventing aging. Our previous studies have found that C. chinensis and C. campestris possess anti-inflammatory activities in rodents. However, their other biological activities,
Cholinergic dysfunction and oxidative stress are the crucial mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). GAPT, also called GEPT (a combination of several active components extracted from the Chinese herbs ginseng, epimedium, polygala and tuber curcumae) or Jinsiwei, is a patented Chinese The effect of a Kampo (traditional Chinese medicine) prescription, Shimotsu-to, on spatial cognitive deficits produced by scopolamine was examined using an eight-arm radial maze and a T-maze. Scopolamine (SCOP; 0.075-0.3 mg/kg, ip) dose-dependently disrupted the radial maze performance. Single doses
Fructus Akebiae (FAE) is a component of traditional Chinese medicines used for the clinical treatment of amnesia. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of FAE extract on scopolamine-induced learning and memory impairment in mice and Sprague-Dawley rats. Treatment with FAE (2.5,
