Because imperatorin (IPT), the furanocoumarins exhibits anti-inflammatory activity, we reasoned that IPT might modulate the allergic rhinitis (AR). The aim of this study was to analyze the regulation of AR by IPT. Here, we show the effect and mechanism of IPT in an ovalbumin (OVA)-induced AR model.
Imperatorin is a furanocoumarin compound which exists in many medicinal herbs and possesses various biological activities. Herein, we investigated the antiallergic effects of imperatorin in asthmatic mice and explored the immunomodulatory actions of imperatorin on immune cells. We used a murine
Imperatorin has been known to exert many biological functions including anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of imperatorin on the production of inflammatory mediators in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC). Imperatorin inhibited degranulation and
Allergic inflammation is induced by allergens and leads to various allergic diseases, including rhinitis, asthma and conjunctivitis. Histamine is important in the pathogenesis of an immunoglobulin E-dependent allergic reaction and results in the secretion of cytokines associated with inflammation.
A case of acquired photocontact allergy to furocumarins in plants is reported. Photopatch testing was performed with four psoralens [8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP), 5-methoxypsoralens (5-MOP), trimethylpsoralen (TMP) and imperatorin (IMP)[. The use of serial dilutions of the test compounds made it
Qu-feng-sheng-shi Grannules (QFSSG), a common prescription for the treatment of chronic inflammation and allergic rhinitis (AR), is widely used in the clinic as a traditional Chinese medicine. Chemical analysis and quality control studies of this formulation are relatively limited compared to
Wild parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) has been associated with livestock and human photosensitization. An investigation of a natural occurrence of photosensitization of grazing horses identified wild parsnip as a possible cause. HPLC-MS and MS/MS analysis of this plant identified five furanocoumarins
