The root of Platycodon grandiflorus (PG), with hepatoprotective and anti-oxidation effects, has a long history of being used as food and herbal medicine in Asia. However, the mechanism of PG against non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is still not clear. The aim of this study was to
The root of Platycodon grandiflorus (Jacq.) A. DC. (P. grandiflorus), Platycodonis Radix, has been commonly applied to prevent and treat human diseases including bronchitis, asthma and excessive phlegm. Platycodin D (PD), one of the most important therapeutic components of P. grandiflorus, has been
The antioxidant activity of saponins isolated from Platycodon grandiflorum (PG; Balloon flower) was determined using the total oxidant-scavenging capacity (TOSC) assay. Platycodigenin, polygalacic acid, platycodin D, platycoside E and deapioplatycoside E were isolated and their structures were
The protective effects of saponins isolated from the root of Platycodon grandiflorum (Changkil saponins: CKS) against alcoholic steatosis in liver injury induced by acute ethanol administration were investigated. Pretreatment with CKS prior to ethanol administration significantly prevented the
BACKGROUND
The root of Platycodon grandiflorum (Jacq.) A. DC. (Campanulaceae) has been widely studied for its hepatoprotective effects against various hepatotoxicants.
OBJECTIVE
The present study evaluated the protective effect of the standardized aqueous extract of P. grandiflorum (BC703) on
The protective effects of an aqueous extract from the roots of Platycodon grandiflorum A. DC (Campanulaceae), Changkil (CK), on acetaminophen (APAP)-induced hepatotoxicities and the possible protective mechanisms involved were investigated in mice. Pretreatment with CK prior to the administration of
There is increasing evidence that oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including alcoholic liver injury. In the present work, we investigate the protective effects of the saponins isolated from the roots of Platycodon grandiflorum A. DC (Campanulaceae), Changkil
The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effects of the saponins isolated from the root of Platycodi Radix (Changkil saponins: CKS) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4))-induced hepatotoxicities in mice. Pretreatment with CKS prior to the administration of CCl(4) significantly
Platycodin D (PD) is well known as a potent triterpenoid saponin having various pharmacological activities isolated from the root of Platycodon grandiflorum (Jacq.) A. DC. (Campanulaceae). We aimed to evaluate protective effect of PD on cisplatin (CDDP)-induced nephrotoxicity. Male ICR mice were
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protective effect of aqueous extract from Platycodon grandiflorum (BC703) on bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats. BDL rats were divided into three groups, which orally received distilled water or BC703 (10 or 50 mg/kg/day) for
Acute liver injury (ALI) induced by acetaminophen (APAP) overdose is the most common cause of drug-induced liver injury. Saponins from Platycodon grandiflorum (PGSs) ameliorate alcohol-induced hepatotoxicity and enhance human lung carcinoma cell death via AMPK signaling pathway. However, whether PGS
Platycodin D (PD) is the main active saponin of Platycodon grandiflorum (PG) and is reported to exhibit multiple biological effects, including anti-tumor, anti-inflammation, and anti-obesity properties. Although recently there have been many research reports on the chemical constituents of the
