syringaresinol/inflammation

Background: Syringaresinol (SYR) is a phenolic compound, which could be found in various cereals and medicinal plants. It exerts both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant pharmacological properties. However, little is known about the effect

We examined the anti-inflammatory effects of (+)-syringaresinol (SGRS), a lignan isolated from Rubia philippinensis, in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells using enzyme-based immuno assay, Western blotting, and RT-PCR analyses. Additionally, in vivo effects of SGRS in the acute

Coptis japonica Makino (Ranunculaceae) is known to possess several biological activities such as anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, five lignans, isolariciresinol (1), lariciresinol glycoside (2), pinoresinol (3), pinoresinol glycoside (4) and syringaresinol glycoside (5), isolated from the

In the present study, liriodendrin isolated by activity-guided fractionation from the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) extracts of the stem bark of Acanthopanax senticosus, was evaluated for anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activities. Liriodendrin (5, 10 mg/kg/day, p. o.) significantly inhibited the

Rullia tuberosa L. is used for treatment of diabetes mellitus, anti-inflammation, etc. However, its hypoglycaemic and anti inflammatory activities has not been investigated so far. In the present study, the α-glucosidase inhibitory, anti inflammatory activities of the extract of this plant

In order to find potential therapeutic agents on lung inflammatory conditions, the extracts of Acanthopanax divaricatus var. albeofructus were prepared and its constituents were isolated. They include lignans such as (+)-syringaresinol (1), acanthoside B (2), salvadoraside (3) and acanthoside D (4),

BACKGROUND Perovskia atriplicifolia Benth (Labiantae) has long been used as a traditional herbal medicine for anti-inflammation in Pakistan; this prompted us to isolate anti-inflammatory compounds from this plant. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to isolate and characterize the

The Stewartia koreana Nakai (SK) had been used in oriental traditional medicine as a remedy for acute gastroenteritis, liver diseases, quadriplegia and pain. The antioxidant activity guided isolation 80% methyl extract from stems of SK yielded eight phenolic compounds. We evaluated the

A new neolignan, linderin A (1), together with six known lignans, (+)-xanthoxyol (2), pluviatilol (3), actiforin (4), (+)-syringaresinol (5), (+)-(7S,8R,8'R)-acuminatolide (6), and (+)-9'-O-trans-feruloyl-5,5'-dimethoxylariciresinol (7) were isolated from the stems of Lindera obtusiloba Blume

Age-associated immunological dysfunction (immunosenescence) is closely linked to perturbation of the gut microbiota. Here, we investigated whether syringaresinol (SYR), a polyphenolic lignan, modulates immune aging and the gut microbiota associated with this effect in middle-aged mice. Compared with

(+)-Syringaresinol-di-O-beta-D-glucoside (SR), syringin, and isofraxidin isolated from the stem bark of Acanthopanax senticosus Harms are its major constituents. The present work was undertaken to analyze effects of these compounds on inflammatory functions in SW982 human synovial sarcoma cell

Context Litsea cubeba (Lour.) Pers. (Lauraceae) has long been used as a folk remedy in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for the treatment of rheumatic diseases. Previous studies from our laboratory indicated that L. cubeba extract showed anti-arthritic activity in rats. Objective To study L.

Three bibenzyls 1-3 and six other compounds 4-9 were firstly isolated from Dendrobium huoshanense stems. They were identified as 3',4-dihydroxy-3,5'-dimethoxybibenzyl(1), batatasin Ⅲ(2), 3,4'-dihydroxy-5-methoxy bibenzyl(3), dihydroconiferyl dihydro-p-coumarate(4), syringaresinol(5),

Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation induces detrimental changes in human skin which result in photoaging. UV-induced intracellular changes cause degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM). UV-stimulated cleavage of collagen in ECM occurs via matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). (±)-syringaresinol (SYR), a

The fermentation was carried out on the bark of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus (AS). Acanthopanax species have been used in traditional medicine as tonics, sedatives, and antispasmodics. An activity-guided isolation of the fermented bark of A. sessiliflorus (FAS) yielded several
