Pain and depression are often co-existing pathological states that promote mutual severity resulting in limited efficacy of current treatment strategies. Thus, there is a need to develop an efficacious alternate treatment regimen for pain-depression dyad. Skimmetin and osthole are molecules of
Osthole, a main active constituent from Cnidium monnieri (L.) CUSSON, has been considered therapeutic agent in the treatment of ischemic stroke. This study was designed to investigate the effect of osthole on permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in rats. Osthole was administrated by
Osthole, a coumarin compound, has been reported to exhibit various biological activities; however the cellular mechanism of its immune modulating activity has not yet been fully addressed. In this study we isolated osthole from the seeds of Cnidium monnieri and demonstrated that osthole inhibited
One of the most treatable causes of lower back pain and associated sciatica is lumbar disc herniation (LDH), which is characterized by rupture of the hard outer wall (annulus fibrosis) in a lumbar intervertebral disc. In the current study, we aimed to: (1) develop and characterize a rat model of
Osthole has been reported to possess a variety of pharmacological activities, such as antiinflammatory effect. In the present study, we have investigated the effect of osthole on lung inflammation associated with carrageenan-induced pleurisy in rats. The result showed that osthole could inhibit
This study explored the anti-inflammatory mechanisms by which osthole acted on HepG2 cells cultured in a differentiated medium from cultured 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells. HepG2 cells, a human liver cell line, were treated with various concentrations of osthole in differentiated media from cultured
BACKGROUND
Renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a primary cause of acute renal failure that results in high mortality. This study aimed to investigate the effect of osthole, a natural coumarin derivative, on renal I/R injury in a rat model.
METHODS
Rats were randomly allocated to the sham
This study was performed to evaluate the cardioprotective effects of osthole (OST) in a rat model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI) and the underlying mechanism. We exposed rat hearts to left anterior descending coronary artery ligation for 30 min followed by 24 h of reperfusion. The
Our previous studies have indicated that osthole may ameliorate the hepatic lipid metabolism and inflammatory response in nonalcoholic steatohepatitic rats, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to determine whether the effects of osthole were mediated by the activation of
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the anti-inflammatory effect and mechanism of osthole (Ost).
METHODS
Carrageenan -induced hind paw edema in rats were prepared. The nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity was measured by NADPH -diaphoras stain assay, nitric oxide (NO) content by Griess diazotization assay,
Asthma is a common chronic inflammatory airway disease. Recent studies have reported that interleukin (IL)‑33 is a potential link between the airway epithelium and Th2‑type inflammatory responses, which are closely related to the progression of asthma. The IL‑33 receptor, ST2, is highly expressed in
From osthole [7-methoxy-8-(3-methyl-but-2-enyl)-chromen-2-one] (I), obtained by selective extraction of Peucedanum ostruthium (L.) W. Koch roots, ostholic acid (II) was synthetized as a result of its oxidation with chromium trioxide. From ostholic acid, through its chloride, four amides were
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common neurotrosis disorder of the central nervous system (CNS), which has dramatic consequences on the integrity of damaged tissue. In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effect and anti-inflammatory actions of osthole, a natural coumarin derivative, in
BACKGROUND
Osthole is a bioactive component reported in medicinal plants such as Angelica pubescens and Cnidium monnieri, known for analgesic activity. However, the toxicity, median effective dose (ED50), and dual modulation of nitric oxide and cyclooxygenase pathways along with inflammatory
Osthole, a coumarin derivative, can increase hepatic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) expression and reduce hepatic steatosis and inflammatory response in rats with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). In this study, a cell model of NASH was induced with oleic acid
