Inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) enhance binding of low-density lipoprotein to endothelium and upregulate the expression of endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecules during atherogenesis. The present study examined the effect of ethanol extract of Gardenia

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the dichloromethane extract from the apical bud of Gardenia sootepenesis Hutch. (Rubiaceae) led to the isolation of four new cycloartane triterpenes, sootepins F-I (1-4), along with four known derivatives (5-8). The structures of the new compounds were determined by

Most anticancer drugs have their origin in traditional medicinal plants. We describe here a flavone, 5,3'-dihydroxy-3,6,7,8,4'-pentamethoxyflavone (PMF), from the leaves of the Thai plant Gardenia obtusifolia, that has anti-inflammatory and anticancer potential. Because the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)

Gardenia jasminoides is a plant that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine. It has four key active components (genipin gentiobioside, geniposide, crocin 1 and crocin 2). The aim of the present study was to determine the anti‑hypertension effects of Gardenia jasminoidesin vivo. The chemical

Ultraviolet radiation (UV) is a major cause of photoaging, which also involves inflammatory cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP). The present study was undertaken to examine the UVB-protecting effects of yellow-colored plant extracts in cell-based assays. HaCaT keratinocytes were exposed to

Gardenia jasminoides Ellis, which belongs to the Rubiaceae family, is a widely used traditional Chinese medicine. Although effect of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis has been widely reported, its anti-inflammatory role in intestinal mucosal injury induced by LPS remains unclear. In the

BACKGROUND Gardenia jasminoides Ellis has been used in traditional medicine for treatment of inflammation, edema, and dermaitis. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which Gardenia jasminoides extract (GJE) elicits anti-allergic effects in mast cells and in mice with atopic

Geniposide, a main iridoid glucoside component of gardenia fruit, has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory activity. However, its potential use for acute lung injury (ALI) has not yet been studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory properties of geniposide using a mouse

BACKGROUND Gardenia jasminoides Ellis is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that containing a variety of effective active ingredients and exhibits diverse pharmacological functions, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and nerve protection. OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effect of
