chelidonine/inflammation

Chelidonine is one of the alkaloids of Chelidonium majus, which has broad pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory. Despite chelidonine has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory activity, the molecular mechanisms are not yet fully elucidated. In this paper, we used RAW264.7

Nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) is a complex that regulates several hundreds of genes, including those involved in immunity and inflammation, survival, proliferation, and the negative feedback of NF-κB signaling. Chelidonine, a major bioactive, isoquinoline

BACKGROUND Chelidonine, a major bioactive, isoquinoline alkaloid ingredient in Chelidonium majus, exhibits anti-inflammatory and other pharmacological properties. However, its molecular mechanisms in asthma remain unclear. In this work we investigated chelidonine's effect and mechanism in airway

This study evaluates the possible protective potentials of chelidonine and its poly lactide-co-glycolide (PLGA) encapsulated nano-form against cadmium chloride (CdCl₂) induced oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity in mice, ex vivo and in vivo. Acute exposure to CdCl₂ (1.0 mg/kg b.w; i.p., twice a week

Due to certain differences in terms of molecular structure, isoquinoline alkaloids from Chelidonium majus engage in various biological activities. Apart from their well-documented antimicrobial potential, some phenanthridine and protoberberine derivatives as well as C. majus extract

The yellow hornpoppy, Glaucium flavum Cr. (Fam. Papaveraceae) is a perennial herb, distributed in the Mediterranean region, including Egypt. The plant contains many benzyl isoquinoline alkaloids from the aporphine type such as glaucine, isoboldine, 1-chelidonine, 1-norchelidonine and

A new alkaloid, methyl 2'-(7,8-dihydrosanguinarine-8-yl)acetate (1), together with six known alkaloids, stylopine (2), protopine (3), norchelidonine (4), chelidonine (5), berberine (6), and 8-hydroxydihydrosanguinarine (7), were isolated from Chelidonium majus. Their chemical structures were

Chelidonium majus (also known as celandine) contains pharmacologically active compounds such as isoquinoline alkaloids (e.g., chelidonine, sanguinarine), flavonoids, saponins, carotenoids, and organic acids. Due to the presence of isoquinoline alkaloids, Chelidonii herba extracts are
