BACKGROUND
Phytophotodermatitis is a phototoxic reaction, occurring in skin exposed to sunlight after contact with plants containing furanocoumarins. Typical reactions are mild, showing erythema with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. A 6-year-old boy presented with marked, symmetric, painful
Furocoumarins (psoralens) are photosensitizers of plant origin, which increase the sensitivity of biological objects to near ultraviolet (UV-A, 320-400 nm). In combination with UV-A, they are successfully used for treating many dermal and autoimmune diseases (PUVA therapy and photophoresis). Along
Aim: The objective of the current investigation was to explore the analgesic effect of naturally occurring furanocoumarin, imperatorin and the involvement of inducible cyclooxygenase (COX-2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), NFκB and cytokines in the observed effect. Materials and
Imperatorin is one of the furanocoumarin derivatives and exists in many medicinal herbs with anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial, and antihypertensive activities. In this study, we examined the anti-inflammatory effects of imperatorin on inflammation-associated lung diseases. Imperatorin reduced
Imperatorin (IMT) is a furanocoumarin from the root of Phlomis younghusbandii (Lamiaceae) with various activities. In the present study, the anti‑inflammatory effects of IMT were evaluated by examining dimethylbenzene‑induced ear edema, acetic acid‑induced vascular permeability and by performing
In this review, some common food plants and their toxic or otherwise bioactive components and mycotoxin contaminants have been considered. Crucifers contain naturally occurring components that are goitrogenic, resulting from the combined action of allyl isothiocyanate, goitrin, and thiocyanate.
