schisandra sphaerandra/phosphatase

Three new highly modified lanostane triterpenoids schisanchinlactone A-C (1-3), together with six known compounds (4-9) were isolated from the stems and leaves of Schisandra chinensis. Their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analyses. Compounds

Extraction and purification conditions of lignans from the fruits and seeds of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) were investigated through an orthogonal design of L(9)(3(4)) assay and macroporous resin technology. The extraction was optimized using 95% ethanol. For purification, the extract was

BACKGROUND Schisandra chinenesis (SC) has been reported to have ameliorative effect on osteoporosis. However, the mechanisms underlying the anti-osteoporosis activity of SC have not been clearly elucidated. In the present study, we determined the effects of SC on The receptor activator of NF-kB

Activation of the hepatic cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1R) induces insulin resistance and gluconeogenesis via endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, thereby contributing to hyperglycemia. Gomisin N (GN) is a phytochemical derived from Schisandra chinensis. In the current study, we investigated the

Gomisin A (GA) is an active ingredient of the fruits of Schisandra chinensis which has been widely used as a tonic in traditional Korean medicine. GA induces not only endothelium-dependent but also endothelium-independent relaxation in an isolated rat's thoracic aorta. This study was aimed to

Schisandra chinensis (SC), a member of the Magnoliaceae family, has been used to improve the vascular health for postmenopausal women in Korea. In order to provide some scientific rationales for such effectiveness, this study investigated the vascular effects of gomisin A (GA) from SC. In the

OBJECTIVE Schisandra chinensis (SC) is a known medical herb for the treatment of cardiovascular symptoms associated with menopausal symptoms in Korea. However, the pharmacological action mechanisms involved have not been well studied. This study was aimed to investigate the vascular effects of SC in

Schisandra chinensis (SC) is a well-known important traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that has been used to treat liver disease in China for a long time. However, its overall effects and mechanism of action are unclear. The present study aimed to explore the potential mechanism of SC in

Schisandra sphenanthera and Schisandra chinensis are widely consumed either as food or for medicinal purposes. Nevertheless, no detailed comparative assessments of their physicochemical properties and biological activity have been reported. In this paper, using hot-water extraction, alcohol

We previously reported that the ethanol extract of Schisandra sphenanthera [Wuzhi (WZ) tablet] significantly protects against acetaminophen-induced hepatoxicity. However, whether WZ exerts a protective effect against cholestasis remains unclear. In this study, the protective effect of WZ on

The action principles of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) feature multi-active components, multi-target sites, and weak combination with action targets. In the present study, we performed an integrated analysis of metabonomics, proteomics and lipidomics to establish a scientific research system
