Plants from the Veronica genus are used across the world as traditional remedies. In the present study, extracts from the aerial part of the scarcely investigated Veronica austriaca L., collected from two habitats in Bulgaria-the Balkan Mountains (Vau-1) and the Rhodopi Mountains
The main goal of this study was to evaluate the effects of arbutin (AR) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung injury. A lung injury rat model was established by intravenous LPS administration. We found that levels of inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α),
Increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) along with inflammation are involved in the prostate cancer (PCa). Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the molecular mechanisms that were affected by arbutin as an antioxidant on prostate cancer cell line; LNCap. The intracellular ROS
Arbutin (p-hydroxyphenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside) possesses beneficial functions including antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and anti-tumoral activities. Due to the important role of oxidative stress and apoptosis in the successful treatment of cancer, understanding mechanisms that lead to Strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo L.) leaves have long been used in the traditional medicine of the Mediterranean region. One of their most bioactive constituents is the glycoside arbutin, whose presence makes A. unedo suitable as a potential substitute for bearberry [Arctostaphylos uva ursi (L.)
OBJECTIVE
Arbutin, which is found in the genus Arctostaphylos, is an anti-oxidant and a depigmenting agent. The present study was designed to validate the anti-inflammatory effect of arbutin.
METHODS
The anti-inflammatory properties of arbutin were studied using a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated
In the spring of 2006 and 2007, grafted and nongrafted tomato plants (scion cv. Cuore di Bue, rootstock Lycopersicon lycopersicum × L. hirsutum cv. Beaufort) displaying stem and petiole necrosis were observed in many commercial greenhouses in the Piedmont of northern Italy. Initial symptoms that
BACKGROUND
Exposure of skin cells, particularly keratinocytes to various nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activators (e.g. tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1, lipopolysaccharides, and ultraviolet light) leads to phosphorylation and degradation of the inhibitory protein, IkappaB. Liberated
OBJECTIVE
Pyrus ussuriensis Maxim. has been reported to treat the fever, cough, asthma, and chronic skin disease in Korean Medicine. However, there is no scientific evidence for the use of Pyrus ussuriensis Maxim. Leaves (PUL) extract or its mechanism of action in atopic dermatitis (AD). This study
