schizandrin/inflammation

Asthma comprises a triad of reversible airway obstruction, bronchial smooth muscle cell hyperreactivity to bronchoconstrictors, and chronic bronchial inflammation. Clinical and experimental findings have established eosinophilia as a sign of allergic disorders. In the present investigation, we

Schizandrin B is extracted from Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill. This study evaluated the photoprotective effect of Schizandrin B on oxidative stress injury of the skin caused by UVB-irradiation and the molecular mechanism of the photoprotective effect of Schizandrin B, and we firstly found that

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is a kind of highly pathogenic parenteral bacteria, which adheres to chicken type II pneumocytes through pili, causing inflammatory damage of chicken type II pneumocytes. Without affecting the growth of bacteria, anti-adhesion to achieve anti-inflammatory

Inflammation and oxidative stress are considered major factors in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that Schizandrin A (Sch A), a lignin compound isolated from Schisandra chinesnesis, exhibits prominent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. In

Schisandrin A (Sch A) is a lignin extracted from the fruit of Schisandra chinensis, which has potential anti-inflammatory properties and is used for treating various inflammatory diseases. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of Sch A and the underlying mechanisms in

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) can cause serious pathological changes and inflammation in chickens. Schizandrin has anti-inflammatory activity and can prevent damage to various tissues and organs. The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effect of schizandrin on

OBJECTIVE To study the anti-inflammatory properties of OJ. BACKGROUND Ojayeonjonghwan (OJ) is a traditional Korean prescription, which has been widely used for the treatment of prostatitis. However, no scientific study has been performed of the anti-inflammatory effects of OJ. METHODS Peritoneal

Schisandra chinensis (SC) and its main constituent, schizandrin (SCH) exhibit anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic activities. Allergic and inflammatory reactions are aggravated via caspase-1 signaling pathway. However, the regulatory effects of SC and SCH on caspase-1 activation have not been

Schisandra chinensis (S. chinensis) is a traditional Chinese medicine commonly used in prescription medications for the treatment of chronic cough. However, the material basis of S. chinensis in relieving cough has not been completely elucidated yet. This study established a guinea pig model of

Microglial-mediated neuroinflammation has been established as playing a vital role in pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. Thus, rational regulation of microglia functions to inhibit inflammation injury may be a logical and promising approach to neurodegenerative disease therapy. The

The transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 plays a crucial role in the induction of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in hepatocytes, which contributes to the pathogenesis of liver fibrosis. The inhibition of the TGF-β1 cascade suppresses EMT and the resultant fibrosis. Schizandrin (Sch)

OBJECTIVE Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) plays an important role in allergic diseases such as asthma and atopic dermatitis. Schizandrin has various effects such as anti-asthmatic, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the effect of schizandrin on the production of TSLP has not

Aims: Schizandrin A (SchA) is a type of lignan with biological properties against oxidation, inflammation, and cancer. Here, we aimed to sustain the bioactive properties of SchA in proliferative and motional phenotypes of MDA-MB-231 cells

OBJECTIVE Inflammatory skin diseases are the most common problems in dermatology. Schizandrin A (SchA) has been reported to have anti-inflammatory properties. Herein, we aimed to investigate the protective effects of SchA on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced injury in keratinocyte HaCaT

Schizandrin B (Sch B) is the main component isolated from Schizandra fruit (Schisandra chinensis). While Sch B is established as having antioxidant, anti-proliferation and anti-inflammatory properties, but its activity in sepsis remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the
