OBJECTIVE
To observe the effect of Astragalus membranaceus (AM) on insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) expression in a rat model of olivo-cerebellar degeneration and assess the neuroprotective actions of AM meanwhile.
METHODS
Rats model of olivo-cerebellar degeneration was established by using
Locoweed (Astragalus lentiginosus) fed to mature rams induced transient degenerative changes in the seminiferous, epididymal and vas deferens epithelium. There were changes in behavior and loss of condition in the treatment rams. Observed libido was reduced. Estimated percent abnormal sperm was
Astragalus polysaccharide (APS) is an important bioactive component of Astragalus membranaceus Bunge (Leguminosae) that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for treating muscle wasting, a serious complication with complex mechanism manifested as myofibers atrophy and satellite cells
Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation are the key and early events during the pathological process of Parkinson's disease (PD). Thus, therapeutic intervention to regulate oxidative stress and neuroinflammation would be an effective strategy to alleviate the progression of PD. Astragaloside IV, the
The present study aimed to determine the effect of Astragalus polysaccharide (APS) in an in vivo and in vitro rat model of muscle atrophy (cachexia) caused by chronic renal failure (CRF), along with the potential corresponding roles of atroglin-1 and the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. A rat model of
Astragalus membranaceus (webbed astragalus) for more than two millennia has been used in traditional Chinese medicine as a means of slowing down the aging process and increasing longevity. The article analyzes the data of experimental and clinical studies of recent years, identifying possible
The aim of the study was to analyze histological and morphometric changes in the brain of rats subjected to immobilization stress and to assess the neuroprotective effect of the extract of Astragalus membranaceus (AE). The work was carried out on Wistar rats that were divided into 3 groups (6
OBJECTIVE
Neurons with atrophic neurites may remain alive and therefore may have the potential to regenerate even when neuronal death has occurred in some parts of the brain. This study aimed to explore effects of drugs that can facilitate the regeneration of neurites and the reconstruction of
Lysosomal storage diseases are inherited and acquired disorders characterized by dysfunctional lysosomes. Intracytoplasmic accumulation of undegraded substrates leads to impaired cellular function and death. Several plant species are toxic to livestock because of the presence of indolizidine
To better characterize and compare the toxicity of and lesions produced by locoweed (Astragalus mollissimus) with those of swainsonine and a related glycoside inhibitor, castanospermine, 55 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 11 groups of five animals each. The first eight groups were
Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) is a flavonoid from the plant Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch) Bge that has a wide range of therapeutic effects. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of AS-IV on rats with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) under oxidative stress and inflammation. Newborn
Jasin-hwan-gagambang (BHH10), a modified prescription of Jasin-hwan, contains Astragalus membranaceus, Cinnamomum cassia, and Phellodendron amurense, and it has been traditionally used to treat osteoporosis and other inflammatory diseases. In this study, we systematically investigated the protective
A homologue of Sinorhizobium meliloti bacA was isolated from Mesorhizobium huakuii 7653R, which is capable of fixing atmospheric nitrogen in symbiotic association with leguminous Astragalus sinicus (Chinese milk vetch). Inactivation of the bacA gene abolished the ability of M. huakuii 7653R to
BACKGROUND
The persistent renal hemodynamic maladjustment caused by imbalances between vasoactivators predisposes the kidney to tubulointerstitial injury and ultimate interstitial fibrosis. The decoction (A&A) of a combination of roots of two Chinese herbs, Astragalus membranaceus var. mongholicus
Despite the promising advances in therapeutic discovery, there still is a major challenge in the development of a safe, effective, and economical intervention for managing alcohol-related liver disorders. In this study, we describe the potential use of "MAP," a standardized composition comprising
