Patients with precancerous gastric conditions are at a high risk for gastric carcinoma. The Chinese medicine Weifuchun (WFC) is used in treating chronic superficial gastritis and in postoperative adjuvant treatment of gastric cancer. Both monotherapy and combination therapy of WFC with other drugs
BACKGROUND
Leigong Mountain is an area in the Southwest of China where there is a high incidence rate of athlete's foot, but the Miao people, a Chinese minority who reside in this mountainous area have suffered less from this disease due to their use of the herbal medicine Isodon flavidus
Adenanthin, a diterpenoid isolated from the leaves of Isodon adenanthus, has been reported to possess antileukemic activity through targeting peroxiredoxin I/II. However, its other potential activities remain to be explored. Using myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)35-55-induced experimental
Effective treatments for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), one of the most common cancers in China, are lacking. Longikaurin A (LK-A), an ent-kauranoid diterpenoid isolated from Isodon ternifolius, has been shown to have potent cytotoxic effects on ESCC cells both in vivo and in vitro,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the clinical therapeutic effect of Rabdosia rubescens aqueous extract on chronic pharyngitis and its safety.
METHODS
One hundred and two patients suffered from chronic pharyngtis were randomly divided into an interventional group (n=51) and a placebo group (n=51). These
OBJECTIVE
Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. Oridonin is an effective component isolated from Rabdosia rubescens. It can inhibit the activation of transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B and suppress the over expression of cytokines. We postulated that oridonin may be a
BACKGROUND Eriocalyxin B (EriB), a diterpenoid isolated from the plant Isodon eriocalyx, has been shown to possess anti-tumor properties. However, few systematic studies of the mechanism underlying the anti-tumor activity of Eriocalyxin B in prostate cancer cells have been published. The aim of this
Compelling evidence supports the notion that the majority of neurodegenerative diseases are associated with microglia-mediated neuroinflammation. Therefore, quelling of microglial activation may lead to neuronal cell survival. The present study investigated the effects of Kamebakaurin (KMBK), a
Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, causing progressive cognitive dysfunction, particularly memory loss. Recently, modulation of beta-amyloid (Abeta) toxicity, one of the major potential causes of Alzheimer's disease, has emerged as a possible therapeutic approach to control the
We purified ORI2 [3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acrylic acid 1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-methoxycarbonylethyl ester] from an extract of the plant Isodon excisus. We tested the antiviral effect of ORI2 in a coxsackievirus-induced myocarditis model. Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) is a common cause of myocarditis and
Gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) is a relatively rare but terminal malignancy, and drug/chemical development is an important aspect of prevention and treatment of GBC. Ursolic acid (UA), a pentacyclic triterpenoid, has been reported to exhibit various pharmaceutical effects. In the present study, the
Our preliminary study showed that the total flavonoids in Isodon amethystoides(TFIA), a local medicinal herb in Suzhou, had a certain therapeutic effect on adjuvant arthritis, and this therapeutic effect may be achieved through the up-regulation of miR-152 expression. In this paper, the molecular
Esophageal cancer is the eighth most common cancer in the world and ranks as the sixth leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Esophageal cancer has a poor prognosis partially due to its low sensitivity to chemotherapy agents, and the development of new therapeutic agents is urgently needed.
Phytochemical reinvestigation of ISODON ORESBIUS afforded, in addition to oleanolic acid, ursolic acid, sodoponin, astragalin, and quercetin-3- O-glucoside, three known (oresbiusin A, rosmarinic acid and methyl rosmarinate) and a new rosmarinic acid derivative as well as an ENT-kaurene diterpenoid,
Aberrant activation of phosphatidylinosito-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling in cancer has led to pursuit of inhibitors for targeting this pathway. However, inhibitors of PI3K and AKT have failed to yield efficacious results without adverse effects. Here, we screened a
