farrerol/rhododendron dauricum

Oxidative stress-mediated endothelial injury is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of various cardiovascular diseases. Farrerol, a typical natural flavanone from the medicinal plant Rhododendron dauricum L., has been reported to show protective effects against oxidative

High-performance capillary electrophoresis with electrochemical detection was employed to analyse active ingredients of Rhododendron dauricum L., an important crude herb frequently used in Chinese medicines. Farrerol, quercetin, syringic acid, vanillic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, protocatechuic

The present study was designed to determine the major chemical constituents of the leaves of Rhododendron dauricum L. Compounds were isolated and purified by various chromatographic methods, and their structures were elucidated by physicochemical properties and spectral data. The present study

Rhododendron dauricum L. has been used as a traditional Chinese medicine to treat cough and asthma and relieve phlegm and bronchitis. In this study, a reliable method based on high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection and quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry was

Farrerol, a new type of 2,3-dihydro-flavonoid, has been isolated from the leaves of Rhododendron dauricum L. In the present study, we found that farrerol exerted potent immunosuppressive effects on murine T cells both in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, farrerol markedly suppressed concanavalin A

Farrerol, a typical natural flavanone and major active component in Rhododendron dauricum var. ciliatum, has been shown to possess vasoactive ability in vitro. The aim of this study was to investigate its effect on aorta gene expression in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Twelve-week-old male

Farrerol, a typical natural flavanone, is the major active component of Rhododendron dauricum L. The objective of this study was to evaluate the attenuation effect of farrerol against the aortic lesions in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) for the first time. Twelve-week-old male SHR were orally

Farrerol, isolated from Rhododendron dauricum L., has been proven to be an important multifunctional physiologically active component, but its vasoactive mechanism is not clear. The present study was performed to observe the vasoactive effects of farrerol on rat aorta and to investigate the possible

Farrerol, a dihydroflavone isolated from Rhododendron dauricum L., can inhibit vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and exert a protective effect on H₂O₂-induced vascular endothelial cells injury. In this study, we investigated the effects of farrerol on VSMC

Vascular endothelium plays an important role in the physiological homeostasis of blood vessels. Endothelial injury is considered to be implicated in the pathogenesis of many cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis. Farrerol, a flavonoid considered to be the major bioactive component in a

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of farrerol, a major active component isolated from a traditional Chinese herb "man-shan-hong" (the dried leaves of Rhododendron dauricum L) on fetal bovine serum (FBS)-induced proliferation of cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) of rat thoracic

BACKGROUND Farrerol is one of traditional Chinese medicines, isolated from Rhododendron dauricum L. It has been reported that Farrerol exerts multiple biological activities. Angiogenesis is an important drug target for cancer and inflammation therapy, the effect of Farrerol on angiogenesis is

Farrerol, a typical flavanone isolated from the Chinese medicinal plant Rhododendron dauricum L., has been found to show various biological activities. However, to the best of our knowledge, its inhibitory actions against cancer cells have not been reported as yet. Therefore, the present study aimed
