Embelin, as an inhibitor of the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), may induce apoptosis in various types of cancer cells. The present study aimed to determine the effect of Embelin on the tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis of osteosarcoma
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with joint damage. Effectiveness of embelin has been established in a wide variety of inflammatory disorders, but its utility as a therapeutic agent is limited by its poor absorption, rapid metabolism, and fast systemic elimination. To apprehend Embelin (benzoquinone), an active constituent of methanolic extracts of the fruit of Embelia basal (Myrsinaceae), was studied in high fat diet (HFD)+streptozotocin (STZ) diabetic rats. Treatment of embelin (25 and 50 mg/kg/day, p.o.) for 3 weeks to HFD+STZ diabetic rats elicited insignificant
Embelin is an active component isolated from Embelia ribes Burm. In this study, we explored the protective effects of embelin on acute liver injury.An animal model of acute liver injury was established via administration of a single injection of Embelin has been used to treat fever and inflammatory diseases for thousands of years. Although reports indicate that embelin has antiinflammatory effects, its effects on myocardial injury following cardiac arrest (CA) have not been previously explored. In this study, we aim to investigate the
Despite recent advances in understanding the complex pathogenesis of pancreatitis, the management of the disease remains suboptimal. The use of phytoceuticals (plant-derived pleiotropic multitarget molecules) represents a new research trend in pancreatology. The purpose of this review is to discuss
The present study was designed to investigate the effect of embelin in metabolic endotoxemia (ME) mediated inflammation and associated obesity in high fat diet (HFD)-fed C57BL/6 mice. The molecular docking of embelin confirms its binding with the toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4). In vivo study, mice
Current evidence shows that the majority of the damage induced during sepsis is pursuant to induction and overproduction of endogenous cytokines. Embelin has been reported to suppress cytokine expressions in inflammatory disorders. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of embelin
BACKGROUND
Some non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumor cells are insensitive to tumor necrosis factor- related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) -based therapy. This study was conducted to examine the effect of embelin on the sensitivity of the A549 NSCLC cell line to TRAIL receptor2 (TRAILR2)
The tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) selectively induces apoptosis in the majority of tumor cells, whilst sparing normal cells. However, the potential use of TRAIL in the treatment of cancer is limited by the inevitable emergence of drug resistance. The present study
Most patients with cancer die not because of the tumor in the primary site, but because it has spread to other sites. Common tumors, such as breast, multiple myeloma, and prostate tumors, frequently metastasize to the bone. It is now well recognized that osteoclasts are responsible for the
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is known to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of embelin on lipopolysachharide induced TNF-α production in mice and in human keratinocytes in vitro and also to study the effect of embelin on
Identifying the active chemical ingredients of ancient medicines and the molecular targets of those ingredients is an attractive therapeutic objective. Embelin, identified primarily from the Embelia ribes plant, is one such compound shown to exhibit chemopreventive, anti-inflammatory, and apoptotic
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of embelin on abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). AAA model mice were induced by chronic infusion of 1,000 ng/kg/min Angiotensin II. AAA model mice were treated with 25, 50 or 100 mg/kg embelin for 28 days. Embelin inhibited tumor necrosis
Epilepsy is a neuronal disorder associated with several neurological and behavioral alterations characterized by recurrent spontaneous epileptic seizures. Despite having more than 20 anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs), they only provide a symptomatic treatment. As well as, currently available AEDs also
