Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) flavones have been used as candidate functional food ingredients because of their bioactivities, such as treating cardiovascular disorders, lowering plasma cholesterol level, and regulating immune function. However, the protective effects of sea buckthorn
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of total flavone of haw leaves (TFHL) on the expression of nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor (Nrf2) and other related factors in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) rats induced by high-fat diet and then to further discuss the mechanism of TFHL's
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of flavone on ocular blood flow in rabbit eyes and the formation of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in rat model of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
METHODS
In in vivo studies, colored microsphere technique was used to determine the ocular blood flow in
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of flavone on oxidation-induced injury in retinal pigment epithelium cells.
METHODS
In in vivo studies, NaIO(3)-induced RPE degeneration in rat eyes was treated with 0.5% flavone eye drops 3 times a day for 1 week before and 4 weeks after NaIO(3) injection. At the
To explore the effect of total flavones from hawthorn leaf on (THFL) on the expression of COX-2/Nrf2 in the liver tissues of rats with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and discuss its anti-NASH mechanism, thirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group, model group, THFL high dose
Mitochondria, vital organelles existing in almost all eukaryotic cells, play a crucial role in energy metabolism and apoptosis of aerobic organisms. In this work, we report two new flavone-based fluorescent probes, MC-Mito1 and MC-Mito2, for monitoring mitochondria in living cells. These two probes
OBJECTIVE
To study the effects of Radix Puerariae flavones (RPF) on liver lipid metabolism in ovariectomized (OVX) rats.
METHODS
Forty adult female Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: OVX group; sham-OVX group; OVX+estrogen group and OVX+RPF group. One week after operation rats of
Total flavones of Abelmoschus manihot L. Medic (TFA) is the major active component isolated from Chinese herb Abelmoschus manihot L. Medic. TFA has shown neuroprotective effect against cerebral ischemia injury in rats and rabbits. However, the effects of TFA on hind-limb ischemia and the underlying
Volvariella volvacea is a typical edible Basidiomycete with a high-temperature tolerance. It has a strong fibrinolysis capability and consumes abundant agricultural wastes. In agricultural cultivation, mycelial subculturing has been adopted, leading to serious strain degeneration. In this
Muscle atrophy is a complex process that occurs as a consequence of various stress events. Muscle atrophy-associated genes (atrogenes) such as atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF-1 are induced early in the atrophy process, and the increase in their expression precedes the loss of muscle weight. Although
The effects of quercetin (1) were investigated on disused muscle atrophy using mice that underwent tail suspension. Periodic injection of 1 into the gastrocnemius muscle suppressed muscle weight loss and ubiquitin ligase expression. Compound 1 reduced the enhancement of lipid peroxidation in the
Loss of functional β-cell mass is central for the deterioration of glycemic control in diabetes. The incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) plays a critical role in maintaining glycemic homeostasis via potentiating glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and promoting BACKGROUND
Huntington's disease (HD) is a complex multifactorial neurodegenerative disorder. Naringin, a flavanone glycoside exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effect.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of naringin in quinolinic acid (QA)-induced neurotoxicity in laboratory
3-Deoxyanthocyanins are rare anthocyanin pigments produced by some mosses, ferns, and higher plants. The enzymes and genes responsible for biosynthesis of 3-deoxyanthocyanins have not been well characterized. We identified a novel gene encoding UDP-glucose:3-deoxyanthocyanidin
The orchids GL and YL are two cultivars of Cymbidium longibracteatum. YL displays an obviously yellowing rhizome and yellow leaves, while GL ('Longchangsu') shows dark green leaves and greenish rhizome. But the molecular mechanism for the differences between the two cultivars is poorly understood.
