Our previous studies have confirmed that morroniside has neuroprotective effects. However, the effects of morroniside on cardiac myocardium remain unknown. Rats were anaesthetized with 10% chloral hydrate (0.35~0.4 mL/kg) and an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was induced by ligating the anterior
A morroniside cinnamic acid conjugate was prepared and evaluated on E-selectin mediated cell-cell adhesion as an important role in inflammatory processes. 7-O-Cinnamoylmorroniside exhibited excellent anti-inflammatory activity (IC(50)=49.3 microM) by inhibiting the expression of E-selectin; further,
The effect of morroniside on lipid metabolism and the inflammatory response in the liver of type 2 diabetes model mice was investigated in this study. Male C57BLKS/J db/db mice were divided into the three groups: control (vehicle), morroniside 20, or 100 mg/kg body weight-treated mice. The elevated
The aim of our study was to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of Morroniside (MR) in a chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) rat model and its underlying mechanisms. Male Wistar rats were employed to induce CAG model. All animals were divided into six groups: control, model (CAG), positive
OBJECTIVE
The effects of morroniside isolated from Corni Fructus on renal lipids and inflammation provoked by hyperglycaemia were investigated using type 2 diabetic mice.
METHODS
Morroniside was administered orally to db/db mice at 20 or 100 mg/kg daily for 8 weeks, and its effects were compared
The present study was conducted to examine whether morroniside has an ameliorative effect on diabetes-induced alterations such as oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in the liver of type 2 diabetic db/db mice. Morroniside (20 or 100 mg/kg body weight/d, per os (p.o.)) was administered
The aim of this study is to investigate the cardioprotective effects of morroniside in rats following acute myocardial infarction. An acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was induced by ligating the anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) [1]. Following AMI, morroniside was administered
Morroniside and loganin are iridoid glycosides extracted from Cornus officinalis, a plant species widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. However, the anti-inflammatory effects of morroniside and loganin in colitis are barely understood. The aim of the present study was to explore the effects
Corni Fructus, the fruit of Cornus officinalis Sieb. et Zucc. (Cornaceae), is an important crude herb used in Chinese medicine to exhibit several biological activities, including hypoglycemic, antineoplastic, and antimicrobial effects, and to improve liver and kidney functions. We have been
To verify the anti-inflammatory potency of iridoids, three iridoids (two natural, loganic acid: LA; geniposide: GE; and an artefact, 7(S)-n-butyl morroniside: BM) were investigated in vitro on the inhibition of superoxide generation in human neutrophils. All compounds showed inhibitory effect on
BACKGROUND
Cornus officinalis (Cornaceae), known in Chinese as "Shanzhuyu," is a frequently used traditional Chinese medicine. It tastes sour and is astringent and slightly warm in nature. Its fruits have long been used to treat kidney deficiency, high blood pressure, waist and knee pain, dizziness,
