sesamin/hypersensitivity

Establishing therapeutic agents for the treatment of allergic diseases is an important focus of human health research. Sesamin, a lignan in sesame oil, exhibits a diverse range of pharmacological properties. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effect of sesamin on mast cell‑mediated allergic

The effects of sesaminol and sesamin on the ethanol-induced modulation of immune indices related to food allergy were examined in rats given a low (10%)-casein diet. Chronic ethanol drinking, at the dietary level of 23% (w/w), significantly increased the plasma IgA and IgM concentrations,

Nuclear DNA-binding protein high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein acts as a late mediator of severe vascular inflammatory conditions, such as sepsis and septic shock. Epi-sesamin (ESM), an important component of Asarum sieboldii roots, is known to exhibit anti-allergic, anti-nociceptive, and

We examined the effect of three dietary fats, safflower oil (SAF) rich in linoleic acid, borage oil (BOR) rich in gamma-linolenic acid, and perilla oil (PER) rich in alpha-linolenic acid, on the lipid metabolism, and chemical mediator and immunoglobulin levels in Sprague-Dawley rats, as well as the

OBJECTIVE Endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) plays a pivotal role in augmenting Protein C activation by the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex. The activity of EPCR is markedly changed by ectodomain cleavage and release as the soluble protein (sEPCR). The EPCR shedding is mediated by the tumor

OBJECTIVE Sesamin is known for its role in antioxidant, antiproliferative, antihypertensive, and neuroprotective activities. However, little is known about the role of sesamin in the development of emotional disorders. Here we investigated persistent inflammatory pain hypersensitivity and

Allergic asthma is a lifelong airway condition that affects people of all ages. In recent decades, asthma prevalence continues to increase globally, with an estimated number of 250,000 annual deaths attributed to the disease. Although inhaled corticosteroids and β-adrenergic receptor agonists are

In 13 patients with contact allergy to sesame oil, studies were undertaken to elucidate the nature of the allergens. Sesamol, sesamin and sesamolin were identified in crude and purified (pharmaceutical) sesame oil. Patch tests showed 8 of the 13 patients to be positive to sesamol and 12 to sesamolin
