Pterostilbene (Pte) and 4′-Methoxyresveratrol (4MR) are methylated derivatives of resveratrol. We investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of Pte and 4MR in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 murine macrophages. Both Pte and 4MR significantly reduced LPS-induced nitric oxide release
Previous studies have demonstrated that pterostilbene (Pter) prevents oxidative stress, suppresses cell growth and exhibits anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory effects. Pter is used to treat a number of clinical diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, various malignancies and hypercholesteremia. The
Inflammatory response plays an important role not only in the normal physiology, but also in the pathology of certain diseases such as cancers. In our previous study, we found a novel derivative of pterostilbene (PTER), to be an effective inducer of apoptosis in human breast and prostate cancer
Early pulmonary fibrosis after acute lung injury leads to poor prognosis and high mortality. Pterostilbene (Pts), a bioactive component in blueberries, possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and antifibrotic properties. However, the effects of Pts on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pulmonary
Oxidative/nitrosative stress and generation of proinflammatory cytokines are hallmarks of inflammation. Because chronic inflammation is implicated in several pathologic conditions in humans, including cancers of the colon, anti-inflammatory compounds may be useful chemopreventive agents against
A gut-microbiota-dependent metabolite of L-carnitine, trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), has been recently discovered as an independent and dose-dependent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aims to investigate the effects of pterostilbene on reducing TMAO formation Blueberries have been recognized to possess protective properties from inflammation and various diseases, but not for eye and ocular disorders. This study explores potential benefits of pterostilbene (PS), a natural component of blueberries, in preventing ocular surface inflammation using an in
Pterostilbene (PT), an analog of resveratrol, exerts a potent anti-inflammatory effect. However, the protective effects of PT against inflammation in endothelial cells have not been elucidated. Previous studies have confirmed that endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) plays an important role in
The role of pterostilbene (Pte) in inflammation induced by ischemia/reperfusion is not well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate whether Pte modulates neutrophil accumulation and the induction of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in an ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-injured rat heart
Chronic inflammation is characterized by the upregulation of proinflammatory cytokines in obese adipose tissue. Accumulations of adipose tissue macrophages enhance a chronic inflammatory state in adipose tissues. Many studies have indicated that the adipocyte-related inflammatory response in obesity
Oxidative stress is known to be a key factor in many neurodegenerative diseases. Inflammation also plays a relevant role in a myriad of pathologies such as diabetes and atherosclerosis. Polyphenols coming from dietary sources, such as pterostilbene, may be beneficial in this type of diseases.
High dietary fructose is an important causative factor in the development of metabolic syndrome-associated glomerular podocyte oxidative stress and injury. Here, we identified microRNA-377 (miR-377) as a biomarker of oxidative stress in renal cortex of fructose-fed rats, which correlated with
Atherosclerosis is a specific form of an artery wall thickens, a syndrome affecting arterial blood vessels due to a chronic inflammatory response in the walls of arteries, which is promoted by fat accumulation. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play prominent roles in inflammatory responses. And TLR5 is
Supplementation with natural compounds found in fruits and vegetables has long been associated with a reduced risk of several types of cancer. Pterostilbene is a natural stilbenoid and a di-methylated analog of resveratrol which is found primarily in blueberries. Pterostilbene exhibits a range of
Pterostilbene has been reported as a potential drug to inhibit oxidative stress and inflammation. However, the effect of pterostilbene on chondrocytes and osteoarthritis remains to be elucidated. We sought to investigate whether pterostilbene could protect chondrocytes from inflammation and ROS
