asarone/inflammation

Beta-asarone(β-Asarone), the major component of Acorus tatarinowii Rhizoma, has been proved to be muti-pharmacological activities including anti-inflammation, and which is effective in protecting the central nervous system. However, the effect of β-Asarone on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury

The aim of this study investigates whether β-asarone can improve cognition deficits in dizocilpine (MK-801) treated mice. Six-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups: control group (CON), MK-801-treated group (MK-801), MK-801 plus β-asarone group (MK-801+β-asa) and β-asarone group

Alpha-asarone has been found to possess many pharmacological activities, which can improve cognitive function and exert anti-oxidant, anxiolytic, anti-epileptic and protective effects against endothelial cell injury. The anti-inflammatory activity of α-asarone was evaluated using lipopolysaccharide

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Inflammatory responses and autophagy have been implicated in the amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation in Alzheimer's disease. Although major evidence indicates that macro autophagy is involved in the pathogenesis of AD, its exact

α-Asarone exhibits a number of pharmacological actions including neuroprotective, anti-oxidative, anticonvulsive, and cognitive enhancing action. The present study investigated the effects of α-asarone on pro-inflammatory cytokines mRNA, microglial activation, and neuronal damage in the hippocampus

Acorus species contains diverse pharmacologically active phytochemicals including α-asarone, β-asarone, and eugenol. We determined if β-asarone isolated from Acorus gramineus (AG) Solander would be efficacious in protecting BV-2 microglia cells from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced stress signaling.

α-asarone is natural bioactive compound that has been reported to have many benefits and medicinal properties. The present study aimed to assess the protective effect of α-asarone against doxorubicin (DOX) induced nephrotic syndrome in rats. An experimental nephrotic syndrome was induced by single

Anticonvulsant properties of α-asarone were studied in mice at three doses with different toxicity. The 100mg/kg dose decreased both treadmill performance and locomotor activity, caused hypothermia, and potentiated pentobarbital-induced sleep. The last two effects and no toxicity were observed at 60

Ethnopharmacological relevance: Different plants are used for the treatment of various ailments and Acorus calamus L. is one such plant found in Western Himalaya. Rhizome of this plants has ethnomedicinal significance. An attempt has been

BACKGROUND Duguetia furfuracea (A. St. -Hil.) Saff. (Annonaceae) is commonly known in Brazil as "araticum-seco," and its root is used in folk medicine to treat inflammatory and painful disorders. However, no studies have been performed to evaluate these therapeutic activities. OBJECTIVE Investigate

This study was aimed to investigate the protective effect and mechanism of β-asarone on PC12 cells injury induced byAβ₁₋₄₂ activated astrocytes, and provide experimental basis for β-asarone application in the prevention and control of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Firstly, RA-h and PC12 cells were

α-asarone, a bioactive compound found in Acorus plant species, has been shown to exhibit neuroprotective, anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and cognitive-enhancing effects. However, the effects of α-asarone on spinal cord injury (SCI) have not yet been elucidated. The present study investigated the

β-Asarone is a major component of Acorus tatarinowii Schott. It has pharmacological effects that include antihyperlipidemic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity. In the present study, the effect of β-asarone on neurodegeneration induced by

The bioactivity-guided phytochemical investigation of the crude hydralcoholic extract of Nectandra megapotamica was carried out using the abdominal constriction test in mice, which led to the isolation of three active compounds: alpha-asarone (1), galgravin (2) and veraguensin (3). The crude extract
