To elucidate a possible mechanism for the anti-inflammatory action of iridoid glycosides, the effects of both aucubin (AU) and its hydrolyzed product (H-AU) by beta-glucosidase treatment were studied on the production of TNF-alpha in RAW 264.7 cells. H-AU suppressed the production of both mRNA for
Antigen (Ag)-stimulated mast cells induce synthesis and production of cytokines including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-6 with proinflammatory and immune regulatory properties. Expression of TNF-alpha and IL-6 was regulated by a transcription factor, nuclear factor
To investigate the effect of prophylactic aucubin (AU) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice. Methods: Male BABL/c mice were randomly divided into a control group, an ALI group, and an AU treatment group, 16 mice in each group. ALI mice were injected with LPS (5 mg/kg,
To verify the anti-inflammatory potency of iridoids, seven iridoid glucosides (aucubin, catalpol, gentiopicroside, swertiamarin, geniposide, geniposidic acid and loganin) and an iridoid aglycone (genipin) were investigated with in vitro testing model systems based on inhibition of cyclooxygenase
Aucubin (AU) is the main active ingredient of Aucuba japonica which has showed many positive effects such as anti-inflammation and liver protection. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease. In this research, we explored the effects of AU on the
Neuroinflammation and imbalance of neurotransmitters play pivotal roles in seizures and epileptogenesis. Aucubin (AU) is an iridoid glycoside derived from Eucommia ulmoides that possesses anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. However, the anti-seizure effects of AU have not been reported so
OBJECTIVE
Aucubin, an iridoid glycoside, was isolated from seeds of Eucommia ulmoides Oliver. This study was aimed to evaluate the protective effect of aucubin against ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury in mice.
METHODS
Mice were orally administrated with aucubin (20, 40 and 80mg/kg) for 3
Liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common clinical event with high morbidity in patients undergoing complex liver surgery or having abdominal trauma. Inflammatory and oxidative stress responses are the main contributing factors in liver IRI. The iridoid glucoside aucubin (AU) has good
Obesity is closely associated with a state of chronic, low-grade inflammation characterized by abnormal cytokine production and activation of inflammatory signaling pathways in adipose tissue. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is chronically elevated in adipose tissues of obese rodents and humans.
Injection of exogenous hyaluronic acid (HA) into the joint capsule improves symptoms of early stage osteoarthritis (OA). However, reactive oxygen species degrade HA into small oligosaccharides that can elicit pro-inflammatory responses. Likewise, disturbance of the antioxidant enzyme Aucubin is pharmacologically active natural compound which possesses numerous beneficial properties. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of aucubin against cisplatin (CP)-induced acute kidney injury in mice and the mechanism of its action. Aucubin was administrated to mice orally or
Plants from the Veronica genus are used across the world as traditional remedies. In the present study, extracts from the aerial part of the scarcely investigated Veronica austriaca L., collected from two habitats in Bulgaria-the Balkan Mountains (Vau-1) and the Rhodopi Mountains
This study elucidated possible mechanisms for the different anti-inflammatory potencies exhibited by the water extracts of Eucommia ulmoides bark and Plantago asiatica seeds, which contain various iridoids. Water extracts of both herbal materials were tested in vitro with a battery of assay models:
BACKGROUND
Plantago major has been reported to have anticancer and anti-inflammatory properties. However, its antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Moreover, which plant parts are more suitable as starting materials has not been explored.
OBJECTIVE
To
