lycium californicum/消炎（藥

Wolfberry or Goji berry, the fruit of Lycium barbarum, exhibits health-promoting properties that leads to an extensive study of their active components. We synthesized a set of hydroxycinnamic acid amide (HCCA) compounds, including trans-caffeic acid, trans-ferulic acid, and

The relationship between pharmacological and antioxidant activity of the roots, aerial parts and fruits gathered from Lycium chinense were investigated in this study. The extracts of L. chinense showed anti-inflammatory activity against carrageenan induced rat paw edema and CCl(4)-induced liver

Three new lignanamides, that is, a new lignanamide (1), and a pair of enantiomers (2a and 2b) were isolated from the EtOAc-soluble fraction of an EtOH extract of the root of Lycium chinense. The structures of these new compounds, including their absolute configuration, were established on the basis

The evaluation of the antioxidant, anti-secretory and anti-inflammatory potentials of the ethyl acetate fraction (ELC) from the root bark of Lycium chinense against ethanol-induced gastric ulcer in mice and the possible mechanisms underlying this action was performed. The results indicated that oral

Hydroxycinnamic acid amides (HCAA) are the secondary metabolites ubiquitously exist in flowering plants, formed by condensation between hydroxycinnamates and mono or polyamines. HCAA species not only serve multiple functions in plant growth and development, but also exert significant positive

Anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic effects of flavonoids isolated from Lycium barbarum fruits, a traditional Chinese medicine, on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were investigated. Initially, flavonoids were extracted with 80% ethanol and separated using a Cosmosil 140 C18-OPN

BACKGROUND Many fruits have been used as nutraceuticals because the presence of bioactive molecules that play biological activities. OBJECTIVE The present study was designed to compare the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of methanolic extracts of Lycium barbarum (GOJI), Vaccinium

Dietary chrysanthemum flower and wolfberry alone or together are widely consumed as a health beverage on a daily basis for centuries. The study aims to evaluate combinative effects of flower heads of Chrysanthemum morifolium cv. Hangju (C) and Lycium barbarum fruit (wolfberry, W) served as tea on

BACKGROUND Lycium europaeum Linn. is widely used to treat the burning of the skin and well-known as a medicinal plant having various biological activities. OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study is to characterize the polysaccharide from L. europaeum L. leaves (LEP) and to explore its

Two new compounds, named lyciumlignan D (1) and lyciumphenyl propanoid A (2), along with seven known compounds, were isolated from the root bark of Lycium chinense. Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic data (UV, IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR, CD), as well as by comparison with those

The root bark of Lycium barbarum (Lycii radicis cortex, LRC) is used as a cooling agent for fever and night sweats in East Asian traditional medicine. The inhibitory effect of LRC water extract on inflammation is unknown. In this study, the anti-inflammatory effect of LRC was investigated in

In the present study, the therapeutic effects of crude anthocyanins (ACN) from the fruits of Lycium ruthenicum Murray and the main monomer of ACN, petunidin 3-O-[rhamnopyranosyl-(trans-p-coumaroyl)]-5-O-[β-d-glucopyranoside] (P3G), on the dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in mice were

Lycium Fruit has been used as a traditional drug for low back pain and chronic cough in east-Asian countries. However, inhibitory effects of Lycium Fruit water extract (LFWE) on inflammation remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of LFWE on pro-inflammatory mediator

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) has rapidly escalated in Asia (including Korea) due to increasing westernized diet patterns subsequent to industrialization. Factors associated with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are demonstrated to be one of the major

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is the major etiologic agent of cutaneous photoaging, and different strategies are used to prevent and treat this condition. The polysaccharide fraction (LBPF) isolated from Lycium Barbarum fruits (goji berry) contains several active ingredients with antioxidant, immune
