Stilbene derivatives, the principal constituent of Rheum undulatum L., are known to have a wide range of biological activities, such as anti-allergic, anti-diabetic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. A phytochemical study on the methanol extract of Korean rhubarb (R. undulatum L.) led
Context: Emodin is a compound in Rheum undulatum Linne (Polygonaceae) that has been reported to exert anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiallergic effects.Objective: Oxidative stress is a causative agent of liver inflammation that may lead to fibrosis and hepato-carcinoma.
The antiallergic activity of rhubarb and its constituents, anthraquinones, has been reported previously. For further evaluation of the antiallergic activity, a 70% ethanol extract of the rhizomes of Rheum tanguticum (RTE) was prepared and its inhibitory activity on an animal model of atopic
Methanol extract (RM-ext) obtained from the dried rhizome of Rheum undulatum was screened for activity in experimental models of type I allergy. RM-ext exhibited the inhibition on 48-h homologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) in rats and an antigen-induced histamine release from rat peritoneal
Stilbenes isolated from the rhizomes of Rheum undulatum (Korean rhubarb) and the related compounds were investigated on their anti-allergic activities. The results revealed that 3,5,4'-trimethylpiceatannol exhibited the most potent inhibition against beta-hexosaminidase release as a marker of
BACKGROUND
EMODIN (1,3,8-trihydroxy-6-methylanthraquinone) is a Chinese herbal anthraquinone derivative from the rhizome of rhubarb (Rheum palmatum L.) that exhibits numerous biological activities, such as antitumor, antibacterial, antiinflammatory, and immunosuppressive. In the present studies, the
