Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation of adipose tissue. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of esculetin (ECT) through up-regulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in cocultured macrophages and adipocytes. RAW264.7 macrophages and differentiated 3T3-L1
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic inflammatory skin disorder afflicting from infancy to adults with itching, scratching, and lichenification. We aimed to investigate the effects of esculetin from Fraxinus rhynchophylla on atopic skin inflammation. For induction of atopic skin inflammation,
Although previous studies have demonstrated that the natural coumarin compound esculetin possesses various pharmacological properties, the molecular mechanism of esculetin-mediated anti-inflammatory potential is not fully understood. In this study, we determined the effects of esculetin on
Esculetin is one of the major bioactive compounds of Cichorium intybus L. The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects and possible underlying mechanism of esculetin (Esc) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammatory processes and depressive-like behavior in mice.
Esculetin is a polyphenolic compound with cytoprotective properties. We previously demonstrated the induction of apoptosis by esculetin in NB4 human leukemia cells, as a model, by a mechanism not well understood. To analyse the antioxidant activity of esculetin on apoptosis, we have studied the
The purpose of this study was to prepare targeted cancer therapy formulation against insulinoma INS-1 cells and to study its effect on cell death with related mechanisms in vitro.Polylactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) nano-micelles were used for preparation of Esculetin, a coumarin derivative from various natural plants, has an anti-inflammatory property. In the present study, we examined if esculetin has any salutary effects against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice. Acute lung injury (ALI) was induced via the intratracheal
Esculetin, a potent non-competitive inhibitor of lipoxygenase, has been shown to inhibit vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation. However, the effect of esculetin on the matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) regulation responsible for cell migration and invasion has not been previously
Increasing evidence regarding free radical-generating agents and inflammatory processes suggests that accumulation of reactive oxygen species can cause hepatotoxicity. A short-chain analog of lipid hydroperoxide, t-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP), can be metabolized to free radical intermediates by
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of esculetin (ES) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) and the lung epithelial A549 cells. Mice were intragastrically administered with ES (20 and 40 mg/kg) 1 h prior to LPS challenge. ES pretreatment at
OBJECTIVE
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of visual loss. The dry AMD is characterized by retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) death and changes in AMD lead to severe loss of vision. Coumarin-derived esculetin has a number of therapeutic and pharmacological effects such
1. Disruption of calcium homeostasis during neurodegenerative diseases is known to trigger apoptotic or necrotic death in neuronal cells. Recently, the authors reported that intracellular calcium restriction by NMDA receptor antagonists induces apoptosis in cortical cultures. To evaluate whether
Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are known to induce oxidative stress and modulate an inflammatory process in various cell types. Although the cytotoxic effects of ZnO NPs in various cell types have been evaluated, few neurotoxic surveys on ZnO NPs as well as rescue studies have been reported.
The comparison of the antioxidant activity of some coumarins with their molecular structure is well determined. However, the protective function of coumarins with various chemical structures against liver toxicity has not yet been well established. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate
To investigate the pharmacological mechanism of the traditional Chinese medicine, Pulsatilla decoction (PD), the levels of nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET-1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) secreted by cultured rat intestinal microvascular
