paeoniflorin/necrosis

1. Paeoniflorin is one of the main effective components of the total glucosides of paeony (TGP) extracted from the root of Paeonia lactiflora which has been used for gynaecological problems and for cramp, pain and giddiness for over 1,500 years in Chinese medicine. Anti-inflammatory, antioxidative,

TNFα plays an important role in the adipocyte dysfunction, including lipolysis acceleration, insulin resistance and changes of adipokines. Recently, we showed that paeoniflorin attenuates adipocyte lipolysis and inhibits the phosphorylation of ERK, JNK, IKK stimulated by TNFα. However, the effects

Alzheimer׳s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease with elusive pathogenesis, which accounts for most cases of dementia in the aged population. It has been reported that persistent inflammatory responses and excessive chemotaxis of microglia stimulated by beta-amyloid (Aβ) oligomers in the

BACKGROUND Macrophages in other organs (e.g. kidneys, lungs, and spleen, et. al) have rarely been reported in the development of liver fibrosis. Therefore, it is important to investigate macrophage activation in the main organs in liver fibrosis. We investigated the potential antifibrogenic effects

Paeoniflorin (PF) is one of the main effective components of the total glucosides of peony, which has been reported to have anti-inflammatory ability. However, the effects of paeoniflorin on concanavalin A (Con A)-induced hepatitis have not been carefully examined. The aim of this study was to

OBJECTIVE The present study aims to explore the effects of paeoniflorin (PF), a monoterpene glycoside isolated from the roots of Paeonia lactiflora Pallas, on acute lung injury (ALI) and the possible mechanisms. METHODS ALI was induced in mice by an intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide

Objective: To investigate the effect of paeoniflorin (PF) on sepsis-induced acute lung injury and its relationship with nuclear factor erythyroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/Kelch-like ECH2 associated protein 1 (Keap1) signaling

Acute renal injury caused by acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) is a common complication that is associated with a high rate of mortality. Paeoniflorin is the active ingredient of paeonia radix and exhibits a number of pharmacological effects, such as anti‑inflammatory, anticancer, analgesic and

The study is to investigate the effects of paeoniflorin (PA) on renal function in cyclophosphamide-induced mice. Mice were injected with intraperitoneal cyclophosphamide (CYP, 200mg/kg) or saline respectively. Mice were treated with PA (15, 30mg/kg/day) or vehicle for the next 7 days. Then, mice

OBJECTIVE To explore the delayed neuroprotection induced by paeoniflorin (PF), the principal component of Paeoniae radix prescribed in Chinese medicine, and its underlying mechanisms in rats subjected to vascular dementia (VD). METHODS A rat model of VD was induced by bilateral common carotid

Paeoniflorin (PF) is one of the main pharmacodynamic components of Paeonia suffruticosa Andr, which has a significant anti-inflammatory effect on rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with a mechanism related to the tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of PF

Obesity is associated with a state of chronic, low-grade inflammation. It is considered that the paracrine loop involving free fatty acid (FFA) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α between adipocytes and macrophages establishes an inflammatory vicious cycle that augments the inflammatory changes and

Paeoniflorin (PF) extracted from the root of Paeonia lactiflora pall, displays anti-inflammation properties in several animal models. Adhesion molecules are important for the recruitment of leucocyte to the vessel wall and involved in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

The present study was to evaluate the effects of paeoniflorin (PA) on systemic lupus erythematosus induced depressive behaviors. 10 wild type mice and 20 MRL/lpr mice were applied for the research. The animals were randomly assigned to wild type, MRL/lpr group and MRL/lpr + PA group. PA restored

Paeonia lactiflora root (baishao in Chinese) is a commonly used herb in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Paeoniflorin (PF) and albiflorin (AF) are two major active constituents of P. lactiflora. In this paper, we aimed to investigate the hematopoietic effects of PF and AF on myelosuppression mice
