The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two structurally related flavonoids found in Cyclopia subternata, vicenin-2 (VCN) and scolymoside (SCL) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced liver failure in mice and to elucidate underlying mechanisms. Mice were treated intravenously with VCN
OBJECTIVE
Recent results indicate that polyphosphate (polyP) released by human endothelial cells can function as a pro-inflammatory mediator. Cyclopia subternata is a medicinal plant commonly used in traditional medicine to relieve pain in biological processes. This study was undertaken to
OBJECTIVE
Two structurally related flavonoids found in Cyclopia subternata, namely vicenin-2 and scolymoside, were examined for its effects on inflammatory responses by monitoring the effects of vicenin-2 and scolymoside on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated vascular inflammatory
The vascular inflammatory process has been suggested to play a key role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis, a major complication of diabetes mellitus. Thus, in this study, we attempted to determine whether 2 structurally related flavonoids found in Cyclopia subternata, vicenin-2
Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is one of the major predisposing risk factors of skin cancer. The anticancer and photoprotective effects of unoxidized rooibos (Aspalathus linearis) and honeybush (Cyclopia) herbal teas, containing high levels of dihydrochalones and xanthones, respectively, have been
BACKGROUND
The fermented leaves and stems of Cyclopia intermedia are used to brew honeybush tea, a herbal tea indigenous to South Africa. The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of fermented honeybush extracts (FH ex) and scale-up fermented honeybush extracts (SFH ex) against
Cyclopia subternata is a medicinal plant commonly used in traditional medicine to relieve pain. In this study, we investigated the antiseptic effects and underlying mechanisms of vicenin-2 and scolymoside, which are 2 active compounds from C. subternata that act against high mobility group box 1
Transforming growth factor β-induced protein (TGFBIp) is an extracellular matrix protein whose expression in several cell types is greatly increased by TGF-β. TGFBIp is released by the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and functions as a mediator of experimental sepsis. Cyclopia
Previous evidence show foods and beverages rich in polyphenolic compounds to have favourable effects on the cardiovascular system.The current study assessed the modulation of oxidative stress and associated inflammation induced by diesel exhaust particles
