Tolfenamic acid (TA) and glycyrrhizic acid (GA) are well-known components with anti-inflammatory properties. However, their combined effects on inflammation have not been well studied. The present study aimed to investigate the in vivo anti-inflammatory effects of TA combined with GA using a
Glycyrrhizic acid (GA) ameliorates many components of the metabolic syndrome, but its potential therapeutic use is marred by edema caused by inhibition of renal 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11β-HSD2). We assessed whether 100 mg/kg per day GA administered orally could promote metabolic
Spine injury associated with traumatic spinal cord injury eventuates in oxidative stress, inflammation and neuronal apoptosis. The aim of this study is to find out whether the glycyrrhizic acid treatment protects spinal cord from traumatic injuries in rats. To this end, the rats were divided into
BACKGROUND Diabetes aggravates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by increasing inflammatory reactions, but its specific mechanism is currently unclear. MATERIAL AND METHODS Diabetes was induced in mice with a high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin. These mice were subjected to transient
A 49-year-old female physician presented with peripheral edema, weight gain and relative hypertension caused by the consumption of licorice candy cigars containing glycyrrhizic acid (GZA) found in natural licorice extract. Although the patient's response to GZA resolved spontaneously, emergency
Cerebral ischemia is still one of the most important topics in neurosciences. Our study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective and anti-oxidant effects of glycyrrhizic acid on focal cerebral ischemia in rats. Twenty-four rats were divided equally into three groups. A middle cerebral artery
Alcohol-free licorice beverages contain glycyrrhizic acid. Excess glycyrrhizic acid is a well-known cause of excess mineralocorticoid syndrome. We report a case of glycyrrhizic acid poisoning in an abstinent alcoholic complicated by severe pulmonary edema following excessive hydration with
Licorice originates from the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra, which has a herbal ingredient, glycyrrhizic acid, and has a mineralocorticoid-like effect. Chronic intake of licorice induces a syndrome similar to that found in primary hyperaldosteronism. Excessive intake of licorice may cause a
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the modulating effect of glutamyl-tryptophan (EW), glycyrrhizic acid (GA), and their combination on the course of experimental infection caused by influenza A (H3N2) virus in mice. The animals were infected with influenza A/Aichi/2/68 (H3N2) virus in a dose
Cerebral ischemia is caused by various disorders, such as stroke, myocardial infarction or peripheral vascular disease. The purpose of this paper was to investigate the effects of glycyrrhizic acid (GA) on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was
The derivatives of glycyrrhizin acid--dihydrazidohydrazose of glycyrrhizin acid (DHGA), DHGA plus benzaldehyde, DHGA plus 5-nitrofurfurol, DHGA plus furfurol, glycyrrhizin acid, methylmethioninsulfonium-glycyrrhizinate, sodium salt of 18-glycyrrhetic acid, and potassium salt of glycyrrhizin
The authors report 2 cases of pseudohyperaldosteronism secondary to consumption of alcohol-free "pastis" in abstinent alcoholic cirrhotics. In both cases patients presented with ascites, edema, increased blood pressure and hypokalemic alkalosis. Except for hypokalemia, the disorders improved rapidly
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is characterized by a combination of clinical-radiological findings and pathophysiologically by localized brain vasogenic edema. Many clinical illnesses may trigger the onset of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome and hypertension is present in
In traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the licorice-yuanhua herbal pair is one of the most representative incompatible herbal pairs recorded in the "eighteen incompatible herbal pairs" theory. Previous studies of our research group have demonstrated several gut-related side-effects induced by the
The pharmacological properties of the five samples of glycyrrhizic acid, paeoniflorin, the extracts of Glycyrrhizae Radix, the extracts of Paeoniae Radix and a preparation of Chinese drug Shakuyakukanzo-To were compared by investigating their actions in the carrageenan-induced paw edema, the cotton
