Much research has indicated that alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is associated with oxidative stress and inflammation induced by ethanol, and that numerous antioxidants could effectively alleviate such injuries. Moreover, recent studies have identified andrographolide (AD) as having strong
Critical vascular inflammation leads to vascular dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases, including abdominal aortic aneurysms, hypertension, and atherosclerosis. Andrographolide is the most active and critical constituent isolated from the leaves of Andrographis paniculata, a herbal medicine widely
Andrographolide, a natural compound isolated from Andrographis paniculata, has been reported to possess antitumor activity. In the present study, the effect of andrographolide in human gastric cancer (GC) cells was investigated. Andrographolide induced cell death with apoptotic and non-apoptotic
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the action of nuclear factor (NF)-κB in adenomyosis and evaluate the potential therapeutic effect of andrographolide on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced expression of NF-κB-mediated genes cyclooxygease-2 (COX-2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and tissue
Andrographolide is the most abundant diterpene lactone in Andrographis paniculata, which is widely used as a traditional medicine in Southeast Asia. Heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) is an antioxidant enzyme encoded by a stress-responsive gene. HO-1 has been reported to inhibit the expression of adhesion
Andrographolide (AG), the primary bioactive component of Andrographils paniculate Nees, has showed an anti-diabetic effect. However, the molecular mechanism has not been clarified. In this study, we demonstrated that AG increased glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 cells in a time- and dosedependent manner.
Bile acid-induced apoptosis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cholestatic liver disease, and its prevention is of therapeutic interest. The aim of this study was to test whether the andrographolide limits the evolution of apoptosis in a murine model of bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced
This study was designed to investigate the hepatic protective effect and the molecular mechanisms of andrographolide in concanavalin A-induced liver injury model. Results showed that andrographolide (Ag) attenuated concanavalin A (Con-A)-induced liver injury and inhibited hepatocyte apoptosis.
Oxidative and inflammatory damage has been suggested to play important roles in the pathogenesis of skin photoaging. Andrographolide sodium bisulfate (ASB) is a soluble derivative of andrographolide and has known antioxidant and anti‑inflammatory properties. In the present study, cellular
To investigate if andrographolide impairs cholestatic liver injury. All rats were randomly divided into six groups-(1) control (n = 6), (2) control + 200 mg/kg andrographolide (n = 6), (3) alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT)-control (n = 6), (4) ANIT + 50 mg/kg andrographolide (n = 6), (5) ANIT +
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of andrographolide on extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) signaling pathway and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated macrophages.
METHODS
LPS-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages were cultured in media
OBJECTIVE
To test the effects of andrographolide (AP1) and 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (AP2) on pheochromocytoma cell line 12 (PC12) cells in an astrocyte-rich environment.
METHODS
The abilities of AP1 and AP2 to reduce the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines Interleukin (IL)-1,
The present study was aimed to investigate the regulatory effect of Nitric oxide donor andrographolide (Q-1) on cellular immunity in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from patients with chronic hepatitis B. Cell viability was assessed using
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), characterized by exuberant inflammation and tissue deterioration, is a common aortic disease associated with a high mortality rate. There is currently no established pharmacological therapy to treat this progressive disease. Andrographolide (Andro), a major bioactive
The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of andrographolide (AP), a bioactive component isolated from Andrographis paniculata, on carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4))-induced liver injury as well as the possible mechanisms involved in this protection in mice. Acute liver injury was
