acanthopanax giraldii/tyrosine

Inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) has been proposed as a therapy to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. In our preliminary screening study on the PTP1B inhibitory activity, a CH2Cl2-soluble extract of the roots of Acanthopanax koreanum (Araliaceae) was found to inhibit PTP1B

New neo-lignan, (7S, 8R)-3-hydroxyl-4-methoxyl-balanophonin (1), together with seven known compounds (2-8) were isolated from the EtOAc-soluble extract of Acanthopanax senticosus. The structure of the new neo-lignan was elucidated with spectroscopic and physico-chemical analyses. All the isolates

The aim of this study was to determine whether Acanthopanax senticosus Harms (ASH) offers protection against Parkinson's disease (PD) and its related depressive behaviors in rats administered 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). We examined how ASH affected the MPTP-induced loss of

Extract of Acanthopanax senticosus harms (EAS) has neuroprotective effect on Parkinson's disease (PD) mice against dopaminergic neuronal damage. However, studies of its anti-PD mechanism are challenging, owing to the complex pathophysiology of PD, and complexity of EAS with multiple constituents

The aim of this study was to determine whether sesamin, a component from Acanthopanax senticosus HARMS (ASH) pharmacologically offers protection against Parkinson's disease (PD) and its related depressive behavior in rats administered rotenone. We also examined how sesamin affected the
