Uncontrolled activation of NLRP3 inflammasome initiates a series of human inflammatory diseases. Targeting NLRP3 inflammasome has attracted considerable attention in developing potential therapeutic interventions. Here, we reported that dehydrocostus lactone (DCL), a main component of Saussurea
Background
Dehydrocostus lactone (DL), one of the main active constituents in
Aucklandia lappa Decne. (Muxiang), reported to have anti-inflammatory, antiulcer, and immunomodulatory properties. However, the effect of DL on ulcerative colitis (UC) has not been reported. To
BACKGROUND
We previously reported that the biologically active form of histamine releasing factor (HRF) is dimerized translationally controlled tumor protein (dTCTP) which is involved in a number of allergic diseases.
UNASSIGNED
Hoping that agents that modulate dTCTP may provide new therapeutic
Helicobacter pylori is associated with various diseases of the upper gastrointestinal tract, such as gastric inflammation and duodenal and gastric ulcers. The aim of the study was to assess anti-H. pylori effects of the sesquiterpene lactone dehydrocostus lactone (DCL) from Magnolia sieboldii
Excessive osteoclast activity can lead to an imbalance between the synthesis and breakdown of bone, with pathologic consequences that include osteoporosis and periodontitis. Thus, controlling osteoclast differentiation and function has significant therapeutic implications. In this study, we
Osteoarthritis is a common joint disease that disrupts the lives of millions of people worldwide. To date, a safe and reliable treatment has not yet been announced. Excessive production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α plays an important role in the pathological development of OA.
OBJECTIVE
Recent studies found that dehydrocostus lactone (DHC), a traditional Chinese medicine in curing chronic ulcer and inflammation, can inhibit several type of tumor cells. The purpose of this study was to define the role of DHC on cervical cancer cells and to explore its mechanism of
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic relapsing disorder modulated by numerous factors. Recent failures of drugs targeting single factors suggest that multitargeting drugs could be useful for the treatment of IBD. Natural medicines may be an alternative option for the treatment of IBD, owing
Sesquiterpene lactones, which are found in plants of the Asteraceae family, contain costunolide (CO) and dehydrocostus lactone (DCL) as indicator material. CO, in particular, has been reported to possess varied pharmacological activity, including anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and Osteoporosis is a chronic bone lytic disease, because of inadequate bone ossification and/or excessive bone resorption. Even though drugs are currently available for the treatment of osteoporosis, there remains an unmet need for the development of more specific novel agents with less adverse
Vladimiriae Radix (VR) is the dry root of Vladimiria souliei (Franch.) Ling or Vladimiria souliei (Franch.) Ling var. cinerea Ling. Costunolide (CO) and dehydrocostus lactone (DE) are the two most effective active ingredients of VR. Raw Vladimiriae radix (rVR) and processed Vladimiriae Dehydrocostus lactone (DHE), a natural sesquiterpene lactone, has been used for treatment of various diseases with its anti-inflammatory activity. Recently, it has caused extensive interest in researchers due to it has anti-cancer abilities in some types of carcinomas. However, the anti-cancer
Osteolysis is characterized by overactivated osteoclast formation and potent bone resorption. It is enhanced in many osteoclast-related diseases including osteoporosis and periprosthetic osteolysis. The shortage of effective treatments for these pathological processes emphasizes the importance of
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe clinical disease marked by dysregulated inflammation response and has a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Macrophages, which play diverse roles in the inflammatory response, are becoming therapeutic targets in ALI. In this study we investigated the effects of
BACKGROUND
Costus speciosus (Koen ex. Retz.) Sm. (crepe ginger, family Costaceae) is an ornamental plant used in traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammation, rheumatism, bronchitis, fever, headache, asthma, flatulence, constipation, helminthiasis, leprosy, skin diseases, hiccough, anemia,
