Corydalis plants containing isoquinoline alkaloids are reported to possess promising phamacological properties for the treatment of important diseases including cancer, inflammation, Alzheimer's disease and microbial infections. As part of a wider program investigating Bhutanese medicinal plants,.we
Three novel carbon skeleton alkaloids, named oleracimine (1), oleracimine A (2), and oleracone A (3), with one novel azulene carbon skeleton compound, oleracone B (4), and one known compound, β-carboline (5), were first isolated from Portulaca oleracea L. The structures were determined using
BACKGROUND
Methanol extracts and alkaloid fractions of different parts of four plant species belonging to Solanaceae family and used in Mexican traditional medicine were investigated for their total phenolic contents, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
METHODS
The total phenolic compounds
Inflammatory cytokines and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) gp120 are considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of HIV-1-associated CNS disorders. These substances are produced predominantly by HIV-1-infected or activated macrophages and microglia in the brain and induce
The aim of the research was to investigate the anti-endotoxin and anti-inflammatory effects of sinomenine, fangchinoline, stachydrine, chuanxionggzine, oxymartrine, and evodiamine alkaloids commonly found in Chinese herbal medicines. In an endotoxin (LPS) control group, each mouse was challenged
Chemical investigation of the marine bryozoan Flustra foliacea collected in Iceland resulted in isolation of 13 new bromotryptamine alkaloids, flustramines Q-W (1-7) and flustraminols C-H (8-13), and two new imidazole alkaloids, flustrimidazoles A and B (14
Ruta graveolens L. (Rutaceae) are traditionally used for the treatment of rheumatism, arthritis and other inflammatory conditions in the traditional medicine of India, were evaluated for their protective effect in acute and chronic models of inflammation. Carrageenan induced rat paw edema and
Two isoquinoline plant alkaloids, tetrandrine (1) and berbamine (2), have been evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity in an acute paw oedema assay and in adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats. 1 but not 2 suppressed the chronic inflammation in the arthritis model but neither compound was active in
The article Identification of β‑carboline and canthinone alkaloids as anti‑inflammatory agents but with different inhibitory profile on the expression of iNOS and COX‑2 in lipopolysaccharide‑activated RAW 264.7 macrophages, written by Pan Liu, Huixiang Li, Ruiling Luan, Guiyan Huang, Yanan Liu,
The natural alkaloid berberine is being studied as a drug candidate for the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). Fingolimod is an immunomodulator approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Whether fingolimod use can be extended to UC and how it interacts with berberine remain unclear. In the
MHTP [2-methoxy-4-(7-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-yl) phenol], a synthetic isoquinolinic alkaloid, presented anti-inflammatory activity in several experimental models of acute inflammation as lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury and phlogistic agent-induced edema and
OBJECTIVE
To study the protective effects of phenolic alkaloids from Menispermum dauricum (PAMd) on inflammatory injury following focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats.
METHODS
The right middle cerebral artery of the rat was occluded by inserting a nylon suture through the internal carotid
The seeds of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) have medicinal uses as hypoglycemic, antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory agents. We aimed to evaluate the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of the major fractions of fenugreek seeds. The methanolic extract of the plant seeds was
Eurycoma longifolia is an herbal medicinal plant popularly used in Southeast Asian countries. In the present study, we show that 7-methoxy-(9H-β-carbolin-1-il)-(E)-1-propenoic acid (7-MCPA), a β-carboline alkaloid isolated from E. longifolia, exerted anti-inflammatory effects by activating the
Milonine is a morphinandienone alkaloid from Cissampelos sympodialis Eichl (Menispermaceae), a plant used in Brazil to treat inflammatory disorders. In this study, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity of milonine (MIL) by using classical experimental models of inflammation and
