fraxin/inflammation

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe acute disease that threatens human health, and few drugs that can effectively treat this disease are available. Fraxin, one of the main active ingredients of Cortex Fraxini, a Chinese herbal medicine, has presented various pharmacological and

Fraxin, the effective component isolated from Cortex Fraxini, has been reported to have anti-inflammation effects. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of fraxin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxic shock in mice. We used Kunming male mice to establish the model, and we found

Fraxin, a main active component isolated from Cortex Fraxini, possesses a variety of bioactivities. However, there is a research gap in studies related to the hepatoprotective activity of fraxin against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver damage has been rarely studied. Thus, the purpose of

The roots of Ulmus macrocarpa Hance (Ulmaceae) have been used as an oriental traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammation, ulcers, cancers, and parasites. Activity guided isolation from the roots of U. macrocarpa yielded three flavonoids [catechin 7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside (1), (+)-catechin

Fraxin, the effective component of the Chinese traditional medicine Cortex Fraxini, is reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. This study assessed the anti-inflammatory effect of fraxin on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response in A549 cells and the protective efficacy on

In order to screen the active constituents of Vaccinium vitis-idaea L., the compounds absorbed into the rat blood after oral administration of ethanol extract of the stems and leaves of V. vitis-idaea (EEV) have been analyzed. Two compounds were detected in the plasma and identified as arbutin and

Coumarin derivatives are known to possess antiinflammatory and antimetastatic properties due to their direct action on cells, predominantly on macrophages. In the present study the interactions between esculin, esculetin, fraxin, fraxetin, as well as their acetylated and methylated derivatives and

The Keap1/Nrf2/ARE system is a central defensive mechanism against oxidative stress which plays a key role in the pathogenesis and progression of many diseases. Nrf2 is a redox-sensitive transcription factor controlling a variety of downstream antioxidant and cytodefensive genes. Nrf2 has a powerful
