Quercetin (Que) is one of main compounds in Lysimachia christinae Hance (Christina loosestrife), and has both medicinal and nutritional value. Glycosides from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.f. (léi gōng téng [the thunder duke vine]; TG) have diverse and broad bioactivities but with a high incidence of
Endothelial cell inflammation is a central event in the pathogenesis of numerous cardiovascular diseases, including sepsis and atherosclerosis. Triptolide, a principal bioactive ingredient of Traditional Chinese Medicine Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.F., displays anti-inflammatory OBJECTIVE
The current studies investigated the effect of subacute administration of an ethyl acetate extract of the Chinese herbal remedy, Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F (TWHF) on the inflammatory response induced by carrageenan in the rat.
METHODS
F344 rats were randomly divided into 3 groups of
During a screening procedure involving higher plants to find novel candidates for use as anti-inflammatory agents, Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. was shown to exhibit considerable inhibitory activity. Five new sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloids, tripterygiumines S-W (1-4,15), along with 14 known
The aim of this paper was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of Tripterygium wilfordii processed with licorice on DSS-induced ulcerative colitis( UC) mice and its regulation on intestinal immune system. In this study,a DSS-induced animal model of UC mice was established,with mesalazine(
The half-effective dose(ED50), therapeutic index(TI) and certain safety factor(CSF) of 7 diterpene lactone epoxide compounds with antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive action extracted from Tripterygium wilfordii (TW) were assayed using croton oil-induced ear swelling and hemolysin-antibody
The extract of the medicinal plant, Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. (TW), has been used in the treatment of diverse autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis. However, the high frequency of toxic side effects has limited its clinical use. In order to reduce toxicity without losing
Triptolide (Tri) was isolated from Tripterygium wilfordii Hook f. Tri 0.1-0.2 mg.kg-1 sc or 0.15-0.3 mg.kg-1 ig inhibited markedly the increased vascular permeability induced by ip 0.7% HAc in mice. Tri 0.05-0.1 mg.kg-1 ip or 0.15-0.3 mg.kg-1 ig inhibited hind paws swelling induced by sc 0.15 ml
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a cause of major neurological disability, and no satisfactory treatment is currently available. Traumatic SCI directly damages the cell bodies and/or processes of neurons and triggers a series of endogenous processes, including neuroinflammatory response and reactive
To investigate the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of the denatured Naja Naja atra venom (NNAV) in rheumatoid arthritis-associated models, the denatured NNAV (heat treated; 30, 90, 270 μ g/kg), the native NNAV (untreated with heat; 90 μ g/kg), and Tripterygium wilfordii
BACKGROUND
Acting via IL-10 and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), t regulatory cells (Tregs) that express the Forkhead Box P3 (Foxp3) play a vital role in maintaining intestinal immune homeostasis. Many studies have found correlation between Foxp3(+) Treg cells and Crohn's disease (CD). T2,
BACKGROUND
Corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis (CDD) is an inflammation caused by long-term repeated inappropriate external use of corticosteroids. Tripterine is a natural product from the root of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.f. This study aimed to explore the effect and mechanism of tripterine on
OBJECTIVE
To examine inhibition action of multi-glycoside of Tripterygium wilfordii (GTW) on infiltration of inflammatory cell in glomeruli with anti-Thy1.1 glomerulonephritis (anti-Thy1.1 GN), and to clarify its effects on inflammatory in vitro.
METHODS
Two types of anti-Thy1.1 GN were induced in
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a type of chronic systemic inflammatory disease; it has a very complicated pathogenesis, and multiple pathological changes are implicated. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) like Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. F. or Sinomenium acutum (Thunb.) Rehd et Wils. has been
BACKGROUND
Increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines seem to play a pivotal role in the development of back pain in a subpopulation of patients with degenerative intervertebral disc (IVD) disease. As current treatment options are mostly limited to surgical interventions or conservative
