Cardiomyocyte necrosis has been reported to be a major component in pathogenesis of cardiac diseases. We noticed that baicalein, a kind of principal components in the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, exerts cardioprotective effects by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis of
We examined the effects of nine flavonoids isolated from Scutellariae radix on interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta)- and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced adhesion molecule expression in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Among them, we found that baicalein
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is one of the most promising candidates for new cancer therapeutics. A current problem is that some cancers still remain resistant to TRAIL. We show for the first time that a naturally occurring flavonoid, baicalein, overcomes TRAIL
Introduction
Targeting inflammatory cascades is considered a promising way to prevent knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression. In terms of down-regulating the expression of
inducible nitric oxide synthase (
iNOS), interleukin (

matrixOBJECTIVE
To investigate the therapeutic effects of emodin in combination with baicalein on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) rats and to explore the mechanism of SAP.
METHODS
A total of 112 SAP rats induced by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the biliary-pancreatic duct, randomly
Tubular-interstitial nephritis (TIN) is characterized by tubular cell damage and inflammatory lesions of kidneys. Baicalein (BAI) is a flavonoid compound found in the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. The present study was undertaken to explore the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects
Dried roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Huang qin) are widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. Baicalein is a major bioactive flavonoid component of H. qin that shows a wide range of biological activities, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. We evaluated therapeutic
Scutellaria baicalensis (SB; Chinese name, huangqin) is widely used in Chinese medicine as a traditional adjuvant in the chemotherapy of lung and liver cancer. Baicalein is one of the bioactive flavonoid components isolated from the root of SB. The present study aimed to observe the effect of
The involvement of vascular endothelial injury with the pathophysiological process of heart failure has been identified. Baicalein (BAI), a flavonoid extracted from the root of Scutellaria baicalensis, is reported to exert antibacterial, antiviral, antithrombotic and antioxidant effects. The aim of
Baicalein is a component of the root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, which has traditionally been used to treat liver disease in China. In the present study, we investigated baicalein' ability to reduce the liver injury induced by myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (I/R). Myocardial I/R was
We examined the action of baicalein, a flavonoid contained in the herbal medicine sho-saiko-to (TJ-9), on three cell lines of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Treatment with baicalein strongly inhibited the activity of topoisomerase II and suppressed the proliferation of all three HCC cell
The objective of the present study is to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of baicalein (BE) on inflammatory cytokines, which is in line with tumor invasion factors and antioxidant defensive system during benzo(a)pyrene [B(a)P] (50mg/kg body weight) induced pulmonary carcinogenesis in Swiss
The present work investigated the possible protective effect of baicalein, a natural lipoxygenase enzyme inhibitor, on both insulin deficiency (ID) and insulin resistance (IR)-induced macro-vascular impairment. ID and IR were induced by STZ or fructose for 8 or 12 weeks respectively while baicalein
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of combined use of emodin and baicalein (CEB) at the cellular and organism levels in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and explore the underlying mechanism.
METHODS
SAP was induced by retrograde infusion of 5% sodium taurocholate into the pancreatic duct in 48 male
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder, which is characterized by a loss of projecting dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and diminished dopamine level in the striatum. Dopaminergic deficit consequently leads to the alterations of striatal basal glutamatergic
