Articular cartilage is a unique avascular tissue in which chondrocytes are embedded in extracellular matrix (ECM). The decreased ECM resulting from the loss of articular chondrocyte viability leads to degenerative diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA). This study aims to investigate the OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of icariin on myocardial hypoxia reoxygenation injury and the possible mechanism.
METHODS
Neonatal Sprague-Dawley rat cardiomyocytes in primary culture were treated with different concentrations of icariin for 24 h prior to hypoxia/reoxygenation injury.
Osteonecrosis is a harmful musculoskeletal disease. We aims to detect the effects of Icariin (ICA) in MC3T3-E1 cell.MC3T3-E1 cell was pretreated with ICA and was subjected to hypoxia stimuli. The TALNEC2 overexpression or silencing vectors (pTALNEC2 or OBJECTIVE
To study the effect of icariin on vascular endothelial cells (VECs) injury induced by hypoxia.
METHODS
The hypoxia-ischemia model was established. The effect of icariin on injury of VECs activity induced by hypoxia was determined by MTT assay. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA),
OBJECTIVE
Icariin, a prenylated flavonol glycoside isolated from traditional Chinese medicinal herb of the genus Epimedium, has been demonstrated to be a potential alternative therapy for osteoporosis, and its action mechanism so far has been mainly attributed to its phytoestrogenic property. As
Articular cartilage has poor capability for repair following trauma or degenerative pathology due to avascular property, low cell density and migratory ability. Discovery of novel therapeutic approaches for articular cartilage repair remains a significant clinical need. Hypoxia is a hallmark for
Introduction: Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) is a brain disease that is caused by perinatal asphyxia. Icariin (ICA), which is an active component of Epimedii (a Chinese medicinal herb), has been verified to demonstrate a
BACKGROUND
This study investigated the role of Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)/forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) pathway, and a possible protective function for Icariin (ICA), in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury.
METHODS
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated with
Protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) signaling pathways play important roles in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) or hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injuries. Inhibition of PTK activation can protect against I/R- or H/R-induced damages. As one part of our work for seeking bioactive compounds from natural sources
OBJECTIVE
The study the effects of oral administered icariin on intracavernosal pressure (ICP) and on expression of the nitrogen oxide synthase (NOS) isoforms in corpus cavernosum (CC) of arteriogenic erectile dysfunction (A-ED) rat model.
METHODS
Forty adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided
In this study, a series of in vitro experiments were performed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying cell migration promoted by icariin (ICA) at low concentrations.Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were cultured with different concentrations of In this study, we demonstrated that hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) induced an injury in gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) after 2 h of reoxygenation in cultured HUVEC. Free radical scavenger (DMSO) and antioxidant (SOD) did not prevent this GJIC injury at all. Protein kinase C inhibitor
Icariin has been reported to enhance bone healing and treat osteoporosis. In this study, we examined the detail molecular mechanisms of icariin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced osteolysis. Our hypothesis is that icariin can inhibit osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption by suppressing
