The biosynthesis of leukotrienes in one of the arachidonic acid pathways and PGE2 in the other by 5-LOX and mPGES1 respectively, play pivotal roles in augmenting inflammatory responses. PGE2 is known to participate in cancer pathological processes as well. Isocoumarins are natural compounds with a
Compound 3R-(4'-hydroxyl-3'-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl phenyl)-dihydro isocoumarin (GDC) is a natural isocoumarin, recently isolated from the stems of H. paniculiflorum. However, we know little about the effects of GDC on rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study aims to investigate the protective effects and
A new isocoumarin (1) named fraxicoumarin was isolated from the bark of Fraxinus chinensis subsp. rhynchophylla along with three known compounds (2-4). The structure of the new compound was established by extensive spectroscopic studies and chemical evidence. The
The preventative intestinal anti-inflammatory activity of paepalantine, an isocoumarin isolated from the capitula of Paepalanthus bromelioides, was tested in the trinitrobenzenesulphonic acid (TNBS) model of rat colitis. This was performed in two different experimental settings, i. e. when the
Sparstolonin B (SsnB) is an isocoumarin compound isolated from the tubers of both Sparganium stoloniferum and Scirpus yagara. We previously demonstrated that SsnB blocked the Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2- and TLR4-triggered inflammatory signaling in macrophages by inhibiting the recruitment of MyD88
The anti-arthritic effect of NM-3, a new isocoumarin, was examined using a type II collagen-induced arthritis model for human rheumatoid arthritis in DBA/1J mice. NM-3 by oral administration suppressed dose-dependently (2-20 mg/kg/day) not only macroscopic changes such as erythema and swelling of
In spite of their various pharmacological properties the anti-inflammatory potential of benzo[c]phenanthridines remained underexplored. Thus, for the first time PDE4 inhibitory potential of 11,12-dihydro benzo[c]phenanthridine/benzo[c]phenanthridine was assessed in vitro. Elegant synthesis of these
Human kallikrein 5 and 7 (KLK5 and KLK7) are trypsin-like and chymotrypsin-like serine proteases, respectively, and promising targets for the treatment of skin desquamation, inflammation and cancer. In an effort to develop new inhibitors for these enzymes, we carried out enzymatic inhibition assays
Pro-inflammatory molecules play a key role in the progression of various types of cancers highlighting the importance of studying the pathways that regulate the inflammatory cytokine production. To this end, prostaglandins have been reported to correlate with exacerbated cancer phenotypes that may
Insect-based bioactive components are emerging as novel sources of drugs, effective against various diseases. Inflammation is considered to be an innate immune response developed by different organisms against foreign pathogens and cellular stress. However, repetitive elevated inflammation is
Sparstolonin B (SsnB), an isocoumarin compound isolated from the tubers of both Sparganium stoloniferum and Scirpus yagara, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. However, whether SsnB has anti-inflammatory effects on LPS-stimulated 3T3-L1 adipocytes remains unclear. In this study, we
Two new phenolic glycosides (1 and 2) and two new isocoumarin glycosides (3 and 4), along with 14 known compounds (5-18), were isolated from the stems of Homalium paniculiflorum. Their structures were established on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses and chemical methods. All new
Six new isochroman derivatives (annulohypoxylomans A-C, 1-3; annulohypoxylomanols A and B, 6 and 7; and annulohypoxyloside, 8), an isocoumarin (annulohypoxylomarin A, 4), and an azaphilone derivative (xylariphilone, 5) were isolated from an ethyl acetate extract derived from cultures of the
Bergenin is an isocoumarin natural product which aides in fat loss, healthy weight maintenance, enhancing the lipolytic effects of norepinephrine, inhibiting the formation of interleukin 1α and cyclooxygenases-2. Here we describe the anti-inflammatory activity of new bergenin derivatives 1-15 in the
Three new isocoumarins-dichlorodiaportintone (1), desmethyldichlorodiaportintone (2) and desmethyldichlorodiaportinol (3)-as well as six known analogues (4-9) were isolated from the culture of the mangrove endophytic fungus Ascomycota sp. CYSK-4 from Pluchea indica. Their structures were elucidated
