amomum cannicarpum/neoplasms

In this study we investigated the effects of constituents of Amomum xanthioides (AX) on gastritis in rats and on the growth of human gastric cancer cells. The ethanol extract of Amomum xanthioides significantly inhibited HCl ethanol-induced gastric lesions and the growth of Helicobacter pylori (H.

Natural plants are considered as a huge treasure for anticancer. Amomum tsaoko, a plant of Zingiberaceae, is used widely as a food and traditional medicine in East Asia. In previous studies, Amomum tsaoko has antitumor effect on liver cancer cells, but the mechanism is not clear. Here,

Four new compounds having an unusual 1,7-dioxadispiro[5.1.5.2]-12-ene-11-one tricyclic ring system (1-4), their potential precursor, 5R-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxyl-phenyl)-eicosan-3-one (5), and two known compounds, aculeatins A (6) and B (7), have been isolated from Amomum aculeatum. All compounds were

Column chromatographic isolation of the MeOH extract of the seeds of Amomum xanthioides afforded a new diterpene glycoside, amoxanthoside A (1), two new monoterpene glycosides, (1 S,4 S,5 S)-5- EXO-hydroxycamphor 5-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2) and (1 R,4 R,5 S)-5-ENDO-hydroxycamphor

Introduction:Amomum villosum Lour., a herbaceous plant in the ginger family, has been proven to be effective in treating gastrointestinal diseases. It has been listed in the Chinese Pharmacopeia as a legal source of Amomi Fructus. In our previous study, we demonstrated that treatment with extracts

Generally speaking, zingiberaceae plants with sweet fragrance are commonly seen as perennial herbs that contains numerous well-known crude drugs and fragrant plants like Amomum villosum, Amomumtsao-ko, Ginger, Alpinia katsumadai and Radix curcumae, which are widely used in daily life. This paper

Activity-guided isolation of compounds from the fruits of Amomum xanthioides resulted in the purification of fourteen phenolic compounds, 4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde (1), 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (2), 3,5-dimethoxy-4-methylbenzaldehyde (3), syringic aldehyde (4), benzoic acid (5), 3,4-dihydroxy benzoic

As the importance of allergic disorders such as atopic dermatitis and allergic asthma, research on potential drug candidates becomes more necessary. Mast cells play an important role as initiators of allergic responses through the release of histamine; therefore, they should be the target of

BACKGROUND Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common allergic inflammatory skin disease. The activation of innate immunity by house dust mite (Dermatophagoides farinae extract, DFE) allergen plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. We previously showed the inhibitory effect of an extract

Amomum compactum is commonly used in Korean traditional medicine. In this study, we demonstrate that A. compactum ethanolic extract (ACEE) has anti-inflammatory effects in a lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.7 cell model of inflammation. In this system, ACEE prominently inhibited the production of

Activity-guided fractionation of hexanes- and CHCl 3-soluble extracts of Amomum aculeatum leaves, collected in Indonesia, led to the isolation of three new dioxadispiroketal-type ( 3- 5) and two new oxaspiroketal-type ( 6 and 7) derivatives. Nine semisynthetic derivatives ( 1a- 1h and 2a) of the

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory skin disorder. The present study investigated the effects of Amomum xanthioides extract (AXE) on AD‑like skin inflammation using a Dermatophagoides farinae extract (DFE) and 2,4‑dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)‑induced mouse AD model. Hematoxylin

The mast cell-mediated immediate-type allergic reaction is involved in many allergic diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis and sinusitis. Stimulation of mast cells starts the process of degranulation resulting in release of mediators such as histamine and an array of inflammatory cytokines. In

OBJECTIVE Amomum xanthoides is a well-known traditional herbal medicine mainly for diverse digestive system disorders in Asia for a long time. In the present study, we investigate the effects and action mechanism of methanol fraction of Amomum xanthoides (MFAX) on thioacetamide (TAA)-induced liver

Amomum tsao-ko Crevost et Lemaire, used as a spice in Asia, is an important source of Chinese cuisine and traditional Chinese medicines. A. tsao-ko is reported to exert a variety of biological and pharmacological activities, including anti-proliferative, anti-oxidative and neuroprotective effects.
