OBJECTIVE
Toona sinensis Roem. (Meliaceae; Toona sinensis; Chinese toon) is a type of arbor that is widely distributed in Asia. The fruits of Toona sinensis Roem has been traditionally recognized for treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. To evaluate the potential clinical use of the fruits of Toona
Macrophages play a critical role in a variety of inflammatory diseases. Activation of Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling results in inactivation of macrophages and amelioration of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. Hence, discovery for the activators of Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling has become a promising
Toonaciliatin K is a natural limonoid purified from the Toona ciliata Roem. var. ciliata (Meliaceae). This study is to reveal the inflammatory suppression effect of toonaciliatin K and further the intrinsic mechanism. Firstly, anti-inflammatory effect of toonaciliatin K was evaluated in
Toona sinensis is one of the most popular vegetarian cuisines in Taiwan and it has been shown to possess antioxidant, antiangiogenic, and anticancer properties. In this study, we investigated the antiatherosclerotic potential of aqueous leaf extracts from Toona sinensis (TS; 25-100 μg/mL) and its
In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of a nutritious vegetable Toona sinensis (leaf extracts, TS) and its major bioactive compound gallic acid (GA) by analysing LPS-induced NF-κB activation in transgenic mice, using bioluminescence imaging. Mice were challenged
A phytochemical investigation of the ethanol extract of Toona sinensis (A. Juss.) Roem resulted in the isolation of ten new limonoids, toonasinenines A-J (1-10), together with two known compounds, toonafolin (11) and toonacilianin D (12). Their structures were
Quercitrin is found in many kinds of vegetables and fruits, and possesses various bioactive properties. The aim of the present study was to elucidate hepatoprotective mechanisms of quercitrin isolated from Toona sinensis (Juss.) M.Roem. (syn. Cedrela sinensis Juss.), using acetaminophen
BACKGROUND
The antinociceptive effect of an aqueous extract from the leaves of Toona sinensis (TS, [A. Juss., M. Roem.]) was studied using the writhing test in mice.
METHODS
Different extraction fractions from TS leaf extracts (TSL1 to TSL5) were administered orally 1 h before intraperitoneal
Toonaciliatavarins A-H (1-8), including three new protolimonoids (1-3), two new tirucallane-type triterpenoids (4 and 5), and three new tetranortriterpenoids (6-8), and 10 known compounds were isolated from the stem barks of Toona ciliata Roem. var. henryi. Their structures were identified on the
Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of polyphenols from Toona sinensis seeds (PTSS) on neuroinflammation and the underlying mechanism in rats with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods PD rat models were prepared by stereotaxic injection of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) into one side of striatum of
Toona sinensis (TS) is a medicinal herb possessing anti-apoptotic, anti-oxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties and is used to treat diabetes, cancer, and inflammatory diseases. In traditional Chinese medicine theory, TS clears dampness and heat, strengthens the stomach function, and regulates
Toona sinensis (TS) leaves are used as a vegetable and in traditional Chinese medicine. However, in vivo experiments regarding the anti-inflammatory function of TS leaves have not previously been conducted. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential role of TS leaf extract (TSL) in the
Polyphenols from Toona sinensis seeds (PTSS) have demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects in various diseases, while the anti-neuroinflammatory effects still remain to be investigated. We aimed to investigate the effects of PTSS on Parkinson's disease and underlying mechanisms using a rat model. We
Eight new limonoids, toononoids A-H (1-8), eight new B-seco-29-norlimonoids, toonanoronoids A-H (9-16), and seven known analogues were obtained from the EtOAc extract of the twigs and leaves of Toona ciliata. Compounds 2, 4, 8, and
OBJECTIVE
Toona sinensis is well known as a traditional Chinese medicine; also, it has been shown to exhibit anticancer and anti-inflammatory effects. This study was aimed at evaluating the anti-angiogenesis effect of the aqueous extracts of Toona sinensis (TS extracts) or gallic acid, a major
