To extend our understanding of previous studies on the pathogenesis and mechanism of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), here we show that Sirtuin 6 (Sirt6), one of the Sirtuin family members which are widely studied in aging, DNA repair,
The anti-inflammatory profile of dihemiphthalate compounds of glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives in acute rat paw oedema induced by various vasoactive agents was compared with the parent compound. Three dihemiphthalate compounds (the di-sodium salt of 18 beta-olean-12-ene- 3 beta,30-diol
Background: Rosacea is a very common chronic facial dermatosis characterized by a multiphase evolution. Inflammation is an important compound in rosacea, due to inflammatory reactions to cutaneous microorganisms such as Demodex
OBJECTIVE
To study the influence of glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) on bronchial asthma (BA) smooth muscle proliferation and apoptosis as well as inflammatory factor expression and its molecular mechanism.
METHODS
Male SD guinea pigs were selected and made into asthma models, bronchial asthma smooth muscle
Methyl 2-cyano-3,11-dioxo-18beta-olean-1,12-dien-30-oate (CDODA-Me) is a synthetic triterpenoid derived from glycyrrhetinic acid, a bioactive phytochemical in licorice, CDODA-Me inhibits growth of Panc1 and Panc28 pancreatic cancer cell lines and activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor
Anti-inflammatory activity of the stereoisomers, 18 alpha and 18 beta-glycyrrhetinic acid (18 alpha and 18 beta-GA), obtained from Glycyrrhizae Radix, was investigated by using carrageenan-induced edema in mice and 18 alpha-GA was found to be more active than 18 beta-GA. Therefore, to clarify the
Thirteen 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) derivatives were obtained by reduction at C-11 position, oxidation at C-3 position and condensation at C-2 position of GA. Anti-microbial activity evaluation indicated that compounds 04, 05, 10, 13 and 14 showed more potent inhibitory activity against
The anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive effects of disodium glycyrrhetinic acid hemiphthalate (glycyrrhetinic acid 3 beta-O-hemiphthalate sodium) after parenteral administration were determined in several animal models. Disodium glycyrrhetinic acid hemiphthalate (GAP) significantly inhibited the
The roots and rhizomes of licorice ( Glycyrrhia ) species have been used extensively as natural sweeteners and herbal medicines. The aim of this work was to determine the in vitro anti-inflammatory effects of glycyrrhizic acid (GA) and 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (18βGA) from licorice in a
Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most common lethal diseases worldwide and there is no effective treatment till date. Natural products derived from the plants play an important role in chemoprevention and act as therapeutic antitumor agents. Licorice is a plant that has been used in food and
A series of novel 18βH-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) derivatives containing 3'-(alkyl/phenyl/pyridin(-2″, -3″, and -4″)-yl)-1',2',4'-oxadiazole moieties at the C-30 position were synthesized by condensation of triterpenoid's carboxyl group with corresponding amidoximes and further cyclization. Screening
Due to wide spreading of inflammatory disease and imperfection of available anti-inflammatory drugs, mainly associated with their serious side effects, searching for new anti-inflammatory agents is a pressing problem. Natural triterpenoids and their synthetic analogs are a promising source of new
In order to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced damage in precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) from Jian carp (Cyprinus carpio. Jian), an acute liver damage model was established in this study. The viability of PCLS,
Background: We investigated the effect of root extracts from the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plants Glycyrrhiza glabra L., Paeonia lactiflora Pall., and the leaf extract of Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl., and their six major secondary metabolites, glycyrrhizic
Many lung-related diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, are initiated by airway inflammation, and several studies indicate that glycyrrhizic acid (GA) alleviates inflammatory lung disease. We previously showed that GA and 18beta-glycyrrhetinic acid (18betaGA), found in
