Phthalide is a promising chemical scaffold and has been proved to show potent anti-inflammatory efficacy. In this study, three series, total of 31 novel phthalide derivatives were designed and synthesized, their anti-inflammatory activities were screened in vitro and in vivo. The anti-inflammatory
This study evaluated the potential anti-inflammatory effects of natural phthalides, isolated from Ligusticum porteri, and of semi-synthetic phthalides. Anti-inflammatory activity was investigated in two mouse models; one with ear edema, induced with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, and the
The roots of Angelica tenuissima have been commonly used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and menstrual discomfort in Asian countries, such as China and Korea. The primary volatile flavor components are essential oil ingredients, phthalide lactones. In this study, (Z)-ligustilide was
The dried rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort. (Umbelliferae) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herb for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of phthalide lactones from Ligusticum chuanxiong in the therapeutic actions is not yet fully
Butylphthalide (NBP) is a phthalide compound contained in Angelicae Sinensis Radix which is one of the most widely used traditional Chinese medicines. This study aims to explore the therapeutic effect of NBP on airway inflammation, mucus hypersecretion and their possible mechanism in asthma mice.
Atherosclerosis is initiated by the local inflammation response to lipid deposition, and the most commonly administered antiatherogenic drugs are statins. Based on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) evidence, we aimed to find effective therapeutic agents other than statins. A TCM, Suxiao Jiuxin Pill
Kelussia odoratissima Mozaff. is an Iranian endangered endemic edible plant with enormous use in the middle region of Iran as food and spice especially yogurt seasoning, and as medicinal herb for anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular purposes. Although antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antilipidemic
Recently, the resources of medicinal plants have been exhausting. The root of Angelica acutiloba is one of the most important ingredients in Japanese Kampo medicine for the treatment of gynecological diseases. In our search for alternative medicinal plant resources of the root of A. acutiloba, we
Sparassis crispa (SC), known as Hanabiratake in Japanese, is an edible mushroom with various medicinal properties. We isolated 3 novel phthalides, designated hanabiratakelide A (1), B (2), and C (3), from the SC fruit body. In this investigation, 3 known phthalides (4-6), ubiquinone-9, and 2 known
The macrophage scavenger receptor 1 (MSR1)-induced resolution of neuroinflammation may be a novel therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. Our previous study showed that the neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of phthalide are associated with the inhibition of the post-ischemic
The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome is closely related to ischemic brain injury and inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation may be a new therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. Our previous studies showed that ligustilide (LIG) had a dose-dependent neuroprotective effect on various models of
Phthalides are a relatively small group of natural compounds confined to several plant families and some genera of fungi and liverworts. They are divided into two structural groups, the monomeric and dimeric phthalides, and known mainly as bioactive constituents of different plant species used
BACKGROUND
Ligustilide is a bioactive phthalide derivative isolated from Cnidii Rhizoma (Cnidium officinale, rhizome) and Angelicae Gigantis Radix (Angelica gigas Nakai, root) which are both medicinal herbs used to treat circulatory disorders. Vascular endothelium is a central spot in developing
Sedanolide is a natural compound occurring in edible umbelliferous plants. Celery seed oil, a significant source of sedanolide, is used as an herbal remedy to treat inflammatory-associated conditions such as gout and rheumatism. The objective of this study was to assess the potential protective
A phthalide glycoside, (3R, 4R)-4-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-senkyunolide (1), and a megastigmane glycoside, (6S, 7R)-3-oxo-megastigma-4, 8-dien-7-O-β-D-glucoside (2), along with two known aglycones (3-4), were isolated from the 70% EtOH extract of fresh whole grass of Apium graveolens L. Their structures
