OBJECTIVE
In the present study we investigated the antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects of 7-hydroxycoumarin (7-HC) in animal models.
METHODS
The effects of oral 7-HC were tested against acetic acid-induced writhing, formalin test, tail flick test, complete Freund's adjuvant
A number of 7-hydroxycoumarins have been synthesised by Pechmann cyclisation using differently substituted resorcinols employing perchloric acid as the condensing agent. All the compounds have been characterised by analytical and spectroscopic methods. The anti-inflammatory properties were tested
Ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation alters multiple molecular pathways in the skin, thereby inducing skin damage. Human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) were subjected to single UVB-irradiation (18mJ/cm(2)) resulting in reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, oxidative DNA damage and upregulation of nuclear
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by a faulty autoimmune response. Recently, it was reported that some human carbonic anhydrases (CAs) isoforms are overexpressed in inflamed synovium of RA patients. New CA inhibitors (CAIs) incorporating CA-binding moiety and the
In the present study, we assessed whether 7-hydroxycoumarin (umbelliferone), 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin, and their acetylated analogs modulate some of the effector functions of human neutrophils and display antioxidant activity. These compounds decreased the ability of neutrophils to generate
OBJECTIVE
Inflammation is associated with various types of acute and chronic alcohol liver diseases. In this study, we examined whether umbelliferone (7-hydroxycoumarin, UF) ameliorates chronic alcohol-induced liver damage by modulating inflammatory response and the antioxidant system.
METHODS
Rats
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine with key roles in inflammation and cancer, which qualifies it as a potential drug target. Apart from its cytokine activity, MIF also harbors enzyme activity for keto-enol tautomerization. MIF enzymatic activity has been used for
7-Hydroxycoumarin (umbelliferone, 1), the main metabolite of coumarin, has been reported to produce potent antinociceptive effects in animal models of pain. However, the biochemical events involved in antinociception mediated by 1 are currently not well understood. In the present study, the
A series of bi-functional 7-hydroxycoumarin platinum(IV) complexes were synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for antitumor activities. The 7-hydroxycoumarin platinum(IV) complexes display moderate to effective antitumor activities toward the tested cell lines and show much potential in
7-Hydroxycoumarin (HC) or Umbelliferone exerts many beneficial effects, ie. antioxidant, anti-tumour, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. We hypothesized that HC had mitigating properties on ulcerative colitis (UC) induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in mice, via suppression of
Scopoletin (6-methoxy-7-hydroxycoumarin) is a coumarin compound and a pharmacologically active agent that has been isolated from several plant species. However, as yet there is no clear explanation of how scopoletin affects the production of inflammatory cytokine. We therefore used cells from the
7-Hydroxycoumarin (7-HC), also known as umbelliferon, is commonly found in Chinese herbs (e.g. Eucommiae Cortex, Prunellae Spica, Radix Angelicae Biseratae). Previous laboratory studies have indicated that 7-HC has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-tumor effects. Cisplatin is Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a serious neuropsychiatric complication that occurs as a result of liver failure. Umbelliferone (UMB; 7-hydroxycoumarin) is a natural product with proven hepatoprotective activity; however, nothing has yet been reported on its protective effect against hyperammonemia,
BACKGROUND
Paramignya trimera (Oliv.) Burkill (Rutaceae) has been used to treat liver diseases and cancer. However, the anti-inflammatory effects of this medicinal plant and its components have not been elucidated.
OBJECTIVE
This study investigated chemical constituents of the P. trimera stems and
New diorganotin(IV) derivatives of the general formula R2Sn(Umb)2 (where R = n-Bu, n-Oct and Ph; Umb = umbelliferone anion) have been synthesized either by the reaction of R2SnO with umbelliferone under azeotropic removal of water or by the reaction of R2SnCl2 with sodium salt of umbelliferone.
