Beta-amyloid (Aβ) deposition, associated neuronal apoptosis and neuroinflammation are considered as the important factors which lead to cognitive deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Icariside II (ICS II), an active flavonoid compound derived from Epimedium brevicornum Maxim, has been extensively

OBJECTIVE To study the antioxidative and antitumor activities of flavonoids isolated from Epimedium koreanum. METHODS The compounds were separated by column chromatography with silica gel and Sephadex LH-20, and identified by spectral a- nalysis (ESI-MS, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR) respectively. DPPH

Baohuoside I (also known as Icariside II) is a flavonoid isolated from Epimedium koreanum Nakai. Although Baohuoside I exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities, its molecular targets/pathways in human lung cancer cells are poorly understood. Therefore, in the present study, we

Background: Baohuoside-1 is a flavonoid compound isolated from Epimedium koreanum Nakai. This study tried to systematically explore the potential anti-cancer functions of Baohuoside-1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma and study related

The goal of this study was to examine the in vitro antiproliferative activity of crude methanol extracts of three traditional Korean medicinal plants: Achyranthes fauriei, Epimedium koreanum Nakai and Scutellaria baicalensis before and after heat processing. The extracts were screened for

Icariin (ICA) is a major component isolated from Epimedium brevicornum. Emerging evidence shows that ICA can inhibit tumor cell proliferation, invasion and migration. However, the anti-cancer effect of ICA on B16 cells has not been fully investigated. Here we found that the proliferation of B16

BACKGROUND Herba of Epimedium koreanum is used in traditional Chinese and Korean herbal medicine as a potent enhancer of erectile function. Icariin, the main active component of Epimedium koreanum, possesses many biological effects, such as improving cardiovascular function, hormone regulation,

The biggest challenge for the treatment of multidrug resistant cancer is to deliver a high concentration of anticancer drugs to cancer cells. Icariside II is a flavonoid from Epimedium koreanum Nakai with remarkable anticancer properties, but poor solubility and significant efflux from cancer cells

Icariin (ICA) is a principal active component from traditional Chinese medicine Epimedium grandiflorum. To explain its traditional medical usages by modern science, a variety of pharmacological effects have been studied for ICA. In this review, we summarized the pharmacokinetics of ICA as well as

Herbal Epimedium species have been widely in Traditional Chinese Medicine for sexual enhancement, immunity improvement, anticancer and anti-aging treatment, with flavonoids and polysaccharides being the major active components. However, exhaustive depletion of wild sources warrants germplasm

Reports elsewhere demonstrated that Epimedin C, a constituent isolated from the leaves of Epimedium sagittatum, possessed anti-tumor activity. However, its mechanism of action remains unresolved. Using SK-Hep-1 cells, a poorly-differentiated hepatoma subline, as an experimental model, we present

Ethnopharmacological relevance: Herba Epimedii (Berberidaceae) has the advantages of "nourishing the kidney and reinforcing the Yang". Many species in this genus have long been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and have been used

BACKGROUND Epimedium koreanum Nakai is documented as tonic herbal in China for over a thousand years and has the potential to enhance the body's immunity according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Polysaccharides are one of the most important effective compounds in Epimedium koreanum

The therapeutic properties of Epimediumkoreanum are presumed to be due to the flavonoid component icariin, which has been reported to have broad pharmacological potential and has demonstrated anti-diabetic, anti-Alzheimer's disease, anti-tumor, and hepatoprotective activities. Considering these
