A new β-tetralonyl glucoside, methylberchemiaside (1), along with five known compounds (2-6) were isolated from a fungus Colletotrichum sp. GDMU-1 derived from the leaves of Santalum album. Their structures were determined by detailed analysis of spectroscopic data. All compounds were tested for the
In this study, we used a clinically relevant rat scald burn model to determine the treatment effects of cerium nitrate (CN) for stabilizing burn eschars through reduction of Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs), inflammatory cytokines and bioburden. Forty two male Sprague-Dawley rats were
Metallothioneins (MTs) are a family of low molecular-weight and cysteine-rich metalloproteins that regulate metal metabolism and protect cells from oxygen free radicals. Recent studies suggested that MTs have some anti-inflammatory effects. However, the role of MTs in post-burn inflammation remains
Effective management of tumorigenesis requires development of better anticancer agents with greater efficacy and fewer side-effects. Natural products are important sources for the development of chemotherapeutic agents and almost 60% of anticancer drugs are of natural origin. α-Santlol, a
Many skin conditions and diseases are characterized by inflammation, infection, and hyperplasia. Safe and effective topical treatment options that can be used long-term are needed. Traditional botanical medicines, which are often complex mixtures that exert their biological activities via multiple
Burns and burn wounds are very sensitive to infections and cause a large amount of death worldwide. Although burn wound is sterile at the beginning, because of the risk factors such as prolonged hospital stay, immune suppression and burn affecting large surface area, colonisation with Staphylococcus
Research on the biological effects of essential oils on human skin cells is scarce. In the current study, we primarily explored the biological activities of 10 essential oils (nine single and one blend) in a pre-inflamed human dermal fibroblast system that simulated chronic inflammation. We measured
Neuroinflammation is an inflammatory response in the nervous system that is associated with various neurological diseases including Alzheimer's diseases and others. Many studies evaluated the anti-inflammatory potential of Santalum album (S. album) extract, but none of them analyzed its effects
Thermal injury increases the number of macrophage progenitors in the bone marrow but leads to a decrease in the number of granulocyte progenitors. In the spleen, thermal injury increases the numbers of myeloid progenitors, but the lineage commitment of these cells is unknown. In this study mice were
