A low-temperature structure of ginkgolide A monohydrate, (1R,3S,3aS,4R,6aR,7aR,7bR,8S,10aS,11aS)-3-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-hexahydro-4,7b-dihydroxy-8-methyl-9H-1,7a-epoxymethano-1H,6aH-cyclopenta[c]furo[2,3-b]furo[3',2':3,4]cyclopenta[1,2-d]furan-5,9,12(4H)-trione monohydrate, C(20)H(24)O(9) x H(2)O,
Naturally occurring splice variants of human constitutive androstane receptor (hCAR) exist, including hCAR-SV23 (insertion of amino acids SPTV), hCAR-SV24 (APYLT), and hCAR-SV25 (SPTV and APYLT). An extract of Ginkgo biloba was reported to activate hCAR-SV24 and the wild type (hCAR-WT). However, it
The standardized Ginkgo biloba extract EGb 761(definition see editorial) has been shown to produce neuroprotective effects in different in vivo and in vitro models. Since EGb 761 is a complex mixture containing flavonoid glycosides, terpene lactones (non-flavone fraction) and various other
BACKGROUND
Ginkgo biloba, which is one of the most frequently used herbal medicines, is commonly used in the management of several conditions, including memory impairment. Previously, it was reported to decrease the expression of peripheral benzodiazepine receptor and the biosynthesis of
Ginkgo biloba extract activates pregnane X receptor (PXR), but how this occurs is not known. Therefore, we investigated the mechanism of PXR activation by the extract and the role of five individual terpene trilactones in the activation. In a cell-based reporter gene assay, G. biloba extract
In the present study, primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were treated for 48 h with one of several extracts of Ginkgo biloba (10, 100, or 1000 microg/ml). Maximal increase in CYP2B1 and CYP3A23 mRNA levels was obtained at 100 microg/ml. This concentration of G. biloba extract also increased CYP3A2
Isoprostanes are prostaglandin (PG) isomers generated from oxygen radical peroxidation of arachidonic acid, which are reliable markers of membrane oxidative damage. Aging is characterized by an imbalance between the generation of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant detoxification pathways.
A total of 25 compounds including terpenoids, flavonoids, biflavonoids and ginkgolic acids were identified and quantified with a reliable, simple, and simultaneous method from Ginkgo leaves, seed coats and embryoids with different tree ages (approximately identified as 25, 500, 1000 and 2000 years).
We investigated the effect of Ginkgo biloba extracts and some of its individual constituents on the oxidative metabolism of valproic acid (VPA) in hepatic microsomes from donors with the CYP2C9*1/*1 genotype. G. biloba extract decreased 4-ene-VPA, 3-OH-VPA, 4-OH-VPA, and 5-OH-VPA formation with mean
The present cell culture study investigated the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract pretreatment on acetaminophen toxicity and assessed the role of ginkgolide A and cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) in hepatocytes isolated from adult male Long-Evans rats provided ad libitum with a standard diet. Acetaminophen
A new liquid chromatographic mass spectrometric (LC-MS) method for determination of terpene lactones in ginkgo dry extract has been developed. The new method has several advantages over the existing European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.) method for analysis of terpene lactones in ginkgo dry extract, the
Urinary biomarkers of plant food supplement (PFS) exposure/intake represent an accurate, objective tool for determining PFS consumption in humans with applications ranging from epidemiology to subject compliance in clinical trials. Ginkgo biloba remains one of the worlds most popular PFS, yet few
A single-laboratory validation was completed for a method to determine total terpene lactones in Ginkgo biloba products. The method determines terpene lactones on the basis of the main terpene lactones (Bilobalide, Ginkgolide A, Ginkgolide B, Ginkgolide C, and Ginkgolide J) by high-performance
In order to evaluate the composition of active constituents in phytopharmaceutical preparations, valid analytical methods are required. For the determination of the active terpene constituents of Ginkgo biloba (the ginkgolides and bilobalide), a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method
A gradient high performance liquid chromatographic method with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) for the simultaneous determination of ginkgolide A, ginkgolide B, ginkgolide C, ginkgolide J, bilobalide, quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin in Ginkgo biloba is described. Samples are
