The roots of two peony species, Paeonia lactiflora Pallas and Paeonia veitchii Lynch are routinely referred to as either chishao () or baishao (). This paper reviews the botanical origins and traditional medicinal usage of each species, as well as pharmacological like activity of their constituents.
Paeonia species have been valued for their ethnomedicinal uses in various countries and received much interest among the scientific community for their therapeutic properties, including anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, nephroprotective and hepatoprotective effects. The multiple
Three new phenolic glycosides, intermedia A-C (1-3), one new acyclic alcohol glycoside, intermedia D (4), together with 3 known glycosides (5-7), were isolated from the dried roots of Paeonia intermedia C. A. Meyer. Their structures were established by means
BACKGROUND
Paeonia lactiflora Pall. (Ranunculaceae) has been used for more than 1000 years in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of gynecological problems, cramp, pain, giddiness, and congestion. Paeoniflorin, monoterpene glycosides isolated from P. lactiflora, possesses a variety of
In China, Korea, and Japan, a decoction of the dried root without bark of Paeonia lactiflora Pall. has been used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, hepatitis, dysmenorrhea, muscle cramping and spasms, and fever for more than 1200 years. A water/ethanol extract of
BACKGROUND
Himalayan paeony (Paeonia emodi Royle.) is an important species used to treat various diseases. This study aimed to compile the detailed traditional medicinal uses, phytochemistry, pharmacology and toxicological investigations on P. emodi. This study also highlights taxonomic validity,
The aim of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of Paeonia and Schisandra extracts in asthmatic rats. An ethanol extraction method was used to prepare the Schisandra and Paeonia extracts, and the levels of hydroxyl radical, total antioxidant activity and
BACKGROUND
Paeonia lactiflora root (baishao in Chinese) is a commonly used herb in TCM. Research has shown baishao to have positive pharmacological actions, including, particularly, anti-inflammatory properties. In this paper we studied the influence of baishao extract on cAMP-phosphodiesterase
The methanol extract of the root cortex of Paeonia suffruticosa afforded two new monoterpene glycosides, paeoniside A (1) and paeoniside B (2), and three known monoterpene glycosides, paeoniflorin (3), benzoylpaeoniflorin (4) and 4-O-methyl-paeoniflorin (5). Their structures were elucidated on the
OBJECTIVE
Paeonol, a major phenolic component of Moutan Cortex, is traditionally used as a Chinese herbal medicine in various diseases including hepatitis. Evidence shows that paeonol has anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti-atherosclerosis effects. However, the effect of paeonol on alcoholic
Natural ingredients have been used to improve the state of health in humans. The genus Paeonia has been studied only limited yet it's reported to have many activities such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. To this context, here we focused on an endemic Paeonia species in Attica. This study aims
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Paeonia suffruticosa Andr. has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine as an anti-tumour, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective agent. Resveratrol oligomers are the main components of the seed coat extracts of
The root of Paeonia lactiflora PALL (PL, Family Paeoniaceae) has been used frequently as an antipyretic and anti-inflammatory agent in traditional medicines of Korea, China and Japan. To evaluate antiallergic effect of PL, we isolated its main constituents, paeoniflorin and paeonol, and evaluated in
The objective of the present work was to study the ultrasonic assisted extraction and optimization of polysaccharides from Paeonia emodi and evaluation of its anti-inflammatory response. Specifically, the optimization of polysaccharides was carried out using Box-Behnken statistical experimental
OBJECTIVE
Cholestasis is a critical risk factor for severe hepatic disease or cirrhosis. The anti-inflammatory effect of Paeonia lactiflora Pall. (PLP), named Chishao in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), on alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT)-induced cholestasis model was tried to be elucidated in
