We examined the antifibrotic effect of a methanol extract from Stephania tetrandra (ST) on experimental liver fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was induced by bile duct ligation and scission (BDL/S) in rats. In BDL/S rats, activity levels of aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminse (ALT), alkaline
Tetrandrine, an alkaloid isolated from the Chinese medicinal herb Stephania tetrandra, has been shown to elicit antifibrotic effects in various cell types. In the present study, the effect of tetrandrine on liver fibrosis was investigated by using bile duct ligation and scission in rats as a model
Tetrandrine (TET) is a natural product isolated from the Chinese herb Stephania tetrandra S. Moore and has been reported to have antiproliferation and apoptosis-inducing activity in various malignant tumor cells. However, the exact molecular mechanisms underlying these effects remain unclear. In the
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the dose-dependent effects of a leaf extract of Stephania hernandifolia on testicular activities in albino rats. Whether this leaf extract has any toxic effect on metabolic organs or on the liver or kidney was studied. Adult male Wistar rats, maintained
The Stephania cephararantha HAYATA extract, and its constituent bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids, such as cycleanine, cepharanthine, isotetrandrine, berbamine, homoaromoline, and cepharanoline were studied for effects on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. The S. cephararantha HAYATA extract inhibited
