tussilago alba/抗真菌药

We have isolated four sesquiterpenoids from Tussilago farfara, a traditional herbal medicine in Korea and China, and investigated the protective effects on LPS-induced neuronal cell death. Four sesquiterpenoids inhibited the production of nitric oxide, prostaglandin E2 and tumor necrosis factor-α in

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronically relapsing inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. Current IBD treatments are associated with poor tolerability and insufficient therapeutic efficacy, prompting the need for alternative therapeutic approaches. Recent advances suggest

Tussilago farfara (Kuan Donghua) is an important Chinese herbal medicine which has been shown to contain many bioactive compounds and widely used to relieve cough and resolve phlegm. However, besides therapeutic bioactive compounds, this herb has been found to contain toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids

Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disorder which is characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation and abnormal differentiation, resulting in the thickening of the epidermis and stratum corneum. In the present study, we investigated in vitro and in vivo pharmacological effects of

The dried flower buds of Tussilago farfara L. have been used in traditional medicine, mainly as an antitussive in the treatment of cough and other respiratory problems. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory signaling pathway via the upregulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in

Activated microglia produce diverse neurotoxic factors such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) that may cause neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. From the EtOAc soluble fraction of Farfarae flos (Tussilago farfara), we purified

Tussilagone, a major component of Tussilago farfara L., has anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the therapeutic and preventive activity of tussilagone in colitis-associated colon carcinogenesis is unknown.

We intended to

BACKGROUND Bioautographic assays using TLC play an important role in the search for active compounds from plants. A TLC assay has previously been established for the detection of beta-glucosidase inhibitors but not for alpha-glucosidase. Nonetheless, alpha-glucosidase inhibition is an important

Tragopogon dubius and Tussilago farfara are consumed as vegetables and used in folk medicine to manage common diseases. Herein, the chemical compositions and biological activities of different leaf extracts (ethyl acetate, methanol, and water) of T. dubius and T. farfara were evaluated. The

Eleven important medicinal plants generally used by the people of Turkey for the treatment of common cold have been studied for their mineral contents. Eleven minor and major elements (essential, non-essential and toxic) were identified in the Asplenium adiantum-nigrum L. , Althaea officinalis L. ,

Induction of apoptosis through activation of the TRAIL pathway is considered to be a promising anticancer strategy due to its ability to selectively induce apoptosis in cancer cells. However, the ability of cancer cells to acquire TRAIL resistance has limited the clinical translation of this

Tussilagone, extracted from Tussilago farfara is an oriental medicine used for asthma and bronchitis. We investigated its mechanism of action, its inhibitory effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation in macrophages, and its impact on viability in a cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced

Tussilagone (TSL) is a sesquiterpenoid isolated from Tussilago farfara, which has been used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of asthma and bronchitis. It also takes part in the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, but its role in angiogenesis is unknown. Angiogenesis is a

Farfarae Flos is the dried flower buds of Tussilago farfara L. which is widely used to treat allergic and inflammatory diseases in Chinese folk. Tussilagone (TSL), a sesquiterpene compound purified from Farfarae Flos, has been confirmed the main active component in the plant. However, its

Oxidative stress plays a key role in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Therefore, the nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a key regulator of the antioxidative response, is considered to be important as a therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases.
