Obesity is closely associated with a state of chronic, low-grade inflammation characterized by abnormal cytokine production and activation of inflammatory signaling pathways in adipose tissue. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is chronically elevated in adipose tissues of obese rodents and humans.
To elucidate a possible mechanism for the anti-inflammatory action of iridoid glycosides, the effects of both aucubin (AU) and its hydrolyzed product (H-AU) by beta-glucosidase treatment were studied on the production of TNF-alpha in RAW 264.7 cells. H-AU suppressed the production of both mRNA for
Proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis (OA) by stimulating several mediators contributed to cartilage degradation. Aucubin, a natural compound derived from plants which has been shown to possess diverse biological activities
Background: Aucubin (Au), an iridoid glycoside from natural plants, has antioxidative and anti-inflammatory bioactivities; however, its effects on a traumatic brain injury (TBI) model remain unknown. We explored the potential role of Au
Antigen (Ag)-stimulated mast cells induce synthesis and production of cytokines including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-6 with proinflammatory and immune regulatory properties. Expression of TNF-alpha and IL-6 was regulated by a transcription factor, nuclear factor
Twelve iridoid glycosides have been evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity on two models: the carrageenan-induced mouse paw edema and the TPA-induced mouse ear edema. Loganic acid was the most active (44.4% edema inhibition) on the former test, whereas the catalpol derivative mixture
Ethnopharmacological relevance: World-wild distributed plantains (genus Plantago L.) are extensively used in the traditional, but some of them are also accepted in the modern medicine. Wide range of usages is mainly connected to the
Aucubin is a small compound naturally found in traditional medicinal herbs with primarily anti-inflammatory and protective effects. In the nervous system, aucubin is reported to be neuroprotective by enhancing neuronal survival and inhibiting apoptotic cell death in cultures and disease models. Our
Aucubin is an iridoid glycoside with a variety of pharmacological effects, such as antimicrobial and antiinflammatory, whilst also promoting dermal wound healing. This study examined the effects of 0.1% aucubin on oral wound healing. ICR male mice were divided into two groups: an untreated control
Infusions of Verbascumlasianthum flowers have been used for hemorrhoids in Turkish folk medicine. In order to evaluate the scientific basis for this practice, in vivo anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activities of Verbascum lasianthum Boiss. ex Bentham flowers were investigated. A methanolic
BACKGROUND
Verbascum phlomoides L. (Scrophulariaceae) (mullein) used in the European folk medicine due to its anti-inflammatory and soothing action on the respiratory tract is thoroughly documented in handbooks and scientific literature. Nevertheless, information regarding the influence of the
BACKGROUND
Castilleja tenuiflora Benth. (Orobanchaceae) is a perennial shrub used since the 16(th) century in Mexican traditional medicine for the treatment of a number of health disorders including inflammation, stomach pain and tumors. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the cytotoxic,
Inflammation is a symptom associated with many diseases. This symptom is treated with steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which can cause severe side effects when used as long-term treatments. Natural products are an alternative source of new compounds with This study elucidated possible mechanisms for the different anti-inflammatory potencies exhibited by the water extracts of Eucommia ulmoides bark and Plantago asiatica seeds, which contain various iridoids. Water extracts of both herbal materials were tested in vitro with a battery of assay models:
Aucubin is an iridoid glycoside with a wide range of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-algesic as well as anti-tumor activities. Recently, it has been shown that aucubin prevents neuronal death in the hippocampal CA1 region in rats with diabetic encephalopathy.
