'Teng-Khia-U' is a folk medicine from Taiwan, derived from the entire plants of Elephantopus scaber L., E. mollis H.B.K. and Pseudoelephantopus spicatus (Juss.) Rohr (Compositae). To evaluate the anti-inflammatory activities of these crude drugs, models with carrageenan-induced acute arthritis and
We have observed that several plants used popularly as anti-snake venom show anti-inflammatory activity. From the list prepared by Rizzini, Mors and Pereira some species have been selected and tested for analgesic activity (number of contortions) and anti-inflammatory activity (Evans blue dye
Two new phenolic acids, ethyl 3,3',4,4'-tetrahydroxy-δ-truxinate (1), 3-O-p-coumaroyl-4-O-caffeoyl quinic acid methyl ester (2), together with three known compounds (3-5) were isolated from the whole plant of Elephantopus scaber Linn.
Seven sesquiterpene lactones, 8-O-methacryloylelephanpane, 2,4-bis-O-methyl-8-O-methacryloylelephanpane, 4-O-ethyl-8-O-methacryloylelephanpane, 8-O-methacryloylisoelephanpane, 2-O-demethyltomenphantopin C, molephantin A, molephantin B, along with ten known ones, were isolated from Elephantopus
Elephantopus tomentosus is widely used in Asia, especially in Malaysia, for the treatment of pain and inflammation. In the present study, the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of a 95% ethanol extract of E. tomentosus were investigated in different experimental models. In the anti-inflammation
OBJECTIVE
Neuroinflammation is a critical pathogenic mechanism of most neurodegenerative disorders especially, Alzheimer's disease (AD). Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are known to induce neuroinflammation which is evident from significant upsurge of pro-inflammatory mediators in in vitro BV-2 microglial
Elephantopus scaber has been used in Brazil as a traditional remedy to cause diuresis, antipyresis and to eliminate bladder stones. In the current study, aqueous and hydroalcoholic extracts of whole plants were tested for acute toxicity, analgesic, antipyretic, antiinflammatory, cardiovascular,
Elephantopus scaber Linn. (E.scaber) is a widely-used traditional herb whose use has been documented for various inflammatory diseases such as fever, sore throat, dysentery, carbuncle and so on. However, the effect and mechanism of E.scaber in LPS-activated macrophages remain The methanolic extract of E. scaber Linn was evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity by determining its effects on production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated monocytes. The cytotoxicity of the
Isodeoxyelephantopin (IDET) has been identified as an anti-tumor natural constituent whose anti-tumor activity and mechanism have been widely investigated. Since the occurrence and development of cancer usually accompany with inflammation, and tumor signaling shares many components with inflammation
Elephantopus scaber is an ethnomedicinal plant used by the Zhuang people in Southwest China to treat headaches, colds, diarrhea, hepatitis, and bronchitis. A new δ -truxinate derivative, ethyl, methyl 3,4,3',4'-tetrahydroxy- δ -truxinate (1), was isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the entire
Deoxyelephantopin (DET), a naturally occurring sesquiterpene lactone present in Chinese medicinal herb, Elephantopus scaber has been shown to exert anti-inflammatory as well as anticancer effects in various cancer cells of human origin in vitro. However, the exact molecular mechanism underlying
Deoxyelephantopin (DET) is an abundant sesquiterpene lactone isolated from an anecdotally hepatoprotective phytomedicine, Elephantopus scaber. Our objective in this study was to provide scientific evidence for the in vivo efficacy and the underlying mechanisms of action of DET in
Elephantopus scaber Linn., family Asteraceae, is a small herb found in the Neotropics, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. The parts of this plant have been used traditionally for the treatment of number of diseases in many countries. The plant has been extensively screened for anticancer activity.
Elephantopus scaber L. (family: Asteraceae) has been traditionally utilized as a folkloric medicine and scientifically shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory activities in various in vivo inflammatory models. Given the lack of study on the effect of E. scaber in neuroinflammation, this study aimed to
