Lycii Cortex, a popular herb medicine in traditional Chinese medicine, is used to treat different inflammation-related diseases. The aim of our work is to find the key constituents inhibiting NF-kappaB, a key regulator of inflammation. In the investigations of cell-based in vitro assays of extracts,
Lyciyunin, a new dimer of feruloyltyramine (1), together with five known tyramines (2-6), was isolated from the water-soluble fraction of an EtOH extract of the root of L. yunnanense. Based on HR-TOF-MS, NMR spectral data and quantum chemistry ECD calculations, the structure of
Two new norsesquiterpenoids, solanerianones A and B (1-2), together with nine known compounds, including four sesquiterpenoids, (-)-solavetivone (3), (+)-anhydro-β-rotunol (4), solafuranone (5), lycifuranone A (6); one alkaloid, N-trans-feruloyltyramine (7); one fatty acid, palmitic acid (8); one
Enhanced oxidative stress and inflammation play important roles in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Amyloid β-peptide (Aβ), a major component of amyloid plaques, is considered to have a causal role in the development and progress of AD by being the initiator of a pathological cascade
Major phenolic compounds from basil, lemon thyme, mint, oregano, rosemary, sage, and thyme were investigated using a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) profiling technique in combination with DPPH-radical scavenging, xanthine oxidase and cyclooxygenase assays. For the present study, 15
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway can regulate inflammatory and immune responses. N-trans-feruloyltyramine (FLA) is an active phenylpropanoid compound. It possesses antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-melanogenesis, and anticancer activities. However, the precise molecular
Nine compounds have been isolated for the first time from Celtis africana, namely trans-N-coumaroyltyramine (1), trans-N-feruloyltyramine (2), trans-N-caffeoyltyramine (3), lauric acid (4), oleic acid (5), palmitic acid (6), lupeol (7), β-sitosterol (8) and oleanolic acid (9), respectively. Their
BACKGROUND
The root bark of Lycium chinense Miller, Lycii radicis cortex, has been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to treat different inflammation-related symptoms, such as diabetes mellitus. The pro-inflammatory transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) is a key regulator of
The Cactaceae family is composed by 124 genera and about 1438 species. Pilosocereus gounellei, popularly known in Brazil as xique-xique, is used in folk medicine to treat prostate inflammation, gastrointestinal and urinary diseases. The pioneering phytochemical study of P. gounellei was performed
Lycium barbarum (Solanaceae), long known to the traditional Chinese medicine because of its many health-promoting effects, has of late spread widely across the Western hemisphere, mainly on account of the nutritional richness in vitamins, minerals and antioxidant metabolites of its fruits. Data on
BACKGROUND
Buckwheat is an important alternative crop and a raw material for functional food formulation. Phase II detoxification proteins/enzymes provide cytoprotective roles against oxidative stress and inflammation originating from various stressors. We aimed to identify and characterize
Aurea Helianthus (AH), also known as wild confederate rose or golden sunflower, is a curative herb. It has been used as a medicinal material in China due to its anti-inflammatory, immune regulatory, and anti-oxidant activities. However, its melanogenic effect on skin has not been sufficiently
