vicenin/inflammation

This paper reports a rapid and sensitive method for determination of the anti-inflammatory compound vicenin-2 in L. ericoides Mart. using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Separation of the compound of interest was performed on a VP-ODS(18) (150 x 2 mm, Shimadzu, Japan) column and a

Vicenin-2 (1), a flavonoid glycoside, was isolated and identified from an ethanol extract of the aerial parts of Urtica circularis. This crude extract was found to possess significant anti-inflammatory activity in a carrageenan-induced rat hind paw edema model (41.5% inhibition at a dose of 300

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two structurally related flavonoids found in Cyclopia subternata, vicenin-2 (VCN) and scolymoside (SCL) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced liver failure in mice and to elucidate underlying mechanisms. Mice were treated intravenously with VCN

OBJECTIVE Recent results indicate that polyphosphate (polyP) released by human endothelial cells can function as a pro-inflammatory mediator. Cyclopia subternata is a medicinal plant commonly used in traditional medicine to relieve pain in biological processes. This study was undertaken to

OBJECTIVE Two structurally related flavonoids found in Cyclopia subternata, namely vicenin-2 and scolymoside, were examined for its effects on inflammatory responses by monitoring the effects of vicenin-2 and scolymoside on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated vascular inflammatory

Vicenin-2, a C-glycoside flavone that is present in many plant sources, exerts potent anti-inflammatory effects in a number of cell and animal models of inflammation. Ten-eleven translocation (TET)-2 has recently gained considerable attention due to the role it plays in regulating the inflammasome.

The vascular inflammatory process has been suggested to play a key role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis, a major complication of diabetes mellitus. Thus, in this study, we attempted to determine whether 2 structurally related flavonoids found in Cyclopia subternata, vicenin-2

The objective of the present work was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of Vicenin-2 on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model. Colitis was induced in C57BL/6J mice by administration of 2% DSS in drinking water for 7 days. In addition to DSS, Vicenin-2 (50 mg kg^-1

Chronic wounds represent serious globally health care and economic issues especially for patients with hyperglycemic condition. Wound dressings have a predominant function in wound treatment; however, the dressings for the long-lasting and non-healing wounds are still a significant challenge in the

The present study was conducted to determine the efficacy of novel flavonoid vicenin-2 (VCN-2), an active constituent of the medicinal herb Ocimum Sanctum Linn or Tulsi, as a single agent and in combination with docetaxel (DTL) in carcinoma of prostate (CaP). VCN-2 effectively induced

Ethyl acetate and ethanol extracts of unflowering aerial part of Macfadyena unguis-cati L. (Fam. Bignoniaceae) were found to be rich in phenolic compounds. From ethyl acetate extract, six flavonoids were identified, 8, methoxy, acacetin, 7-O glucoside; 6, methoxy apigenin 7-O glucoside; 4'-O methyl

Cyclopia subternata is a medicinal plant commonly used in traditional medicine to relieve pain. In this study, we investigated the antiseptic effects and underlying mechanisms of vicenin-2 and scolymoside, which are 2 active compounds from C. subternata that act against high mobility group box 1

Three methods are utilized to synthesize a variety of 6,8-di-C-glycosylflavones bearing identical or distinct glycosyl moieties. Some C-glycosylation compounds are found to have better anti-inflammation activities than the parent flavones. Among them, 6,8-di-C-glucosylapigenin (known as vicenin-2)

The chemical components and biological activity of Camellia mistletoe, Korthalsella japonica (Loranthaceae) are relatively unknown compared to other mistletoe species. Therefore, we investigated the phytochemical properties and biological activity of this parasitic plant to provide essential

Passiflora edulis, commonly known as "maracujá", is widely cultivated in Brazil for the industrial production of juice. The species of Passiflora are popularly used as a sedative or tranquillizer, and also against intermittent fever and skin inflammation. In this study we evaluated the
