patuletin/inflammation

Brazilian ginseng, including Pfaffia townsendii, is used in popular medicine as a natural anti-inflammatory, tonic, analgesic, and antidiabetic agent. In this study, we investigated the chemical composition and evaluated the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of the P. townsendii ethanolic

The three new metabolites: thiotagetin B (2) [(Z)-1″-([2,2'-bithiophen]-5-yl)-8″-chloro-6″,11″-dimethylundeca-6″,10″-dien-2″-yn-9″-one], tagetannin A (9) [3,4-bis-(galloyl-3,5-dimethyl ether)-(α/β)-d-glucopyranose], and tagetannin B (10) [2,3-bis-(galloyl-3,5-dimethyl ether)-(α/β)-d-glucopyranose],

A bio-guided fractionation of Anabasis setifera Moq. (Chenopodiaceae) for anti-inflammatory activity was carried out using carrageenin rat paw edema model in rats. On the basis of percent edema inhibition after 3 h of carrageenin injection, n-butanol fraction showed promising activity through a

The isolation of phenolics from aerial parts of Corispermum marschallii yielded a total of 13 compounds including nine previously undescribed patuletin and spinacetin glycosides. These were identified as patuletin 3- O-β-d-galactopyranosyl-7- O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1), spinacetin 3-

The major components patuletin and patulitrin were isolated from French marigold (florets of Tagetes patula). Patuletin and patulitrin were found to inhibit acute inflammation in mice. Oral administration of patuletin and patulitrin significantly suppressed hind-paw edema induced by carrageenin and

BACKGROUND Oxybaphus nyctagineus (Michx.) Sweet has traditionally been used by several Native American tribes predominantly as a topical anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the antioxidant, analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity of the extracts prepared from the aerial

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) poses a serious health problem as a chronic autoimmune joint disease with significant mortality and morbidity. Proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and activated CD4(+) T-cells play key roles in the progression of arthritis. The aim of

Phytochemical investigation of the flowering aerial parts of Asteriscus maritimus (L.) Less (Asteraceae) led to the isolation of a new compound: patuletin 7-O-β-D-[(2″'S) 6″(3″'-hydroxy-2″'-methyl-propanoyl)] glucopyranoside, together with five known metabolites; β-sitosterol 2, chlorogenic acid 3,

Kalanchoe brasiliensis Cambess. is a native Brazilian plant popularly known as "saião", and the juice of its fresh leaves is traditionally used to treat several disorders, including inflammatory and infectious processes such as dysentery. The goals of this study were to characterize

Urtica dioica (UD), commonly known as "stinging nettle", is a herbaceous flowering plant that is a widely used agent in traditional medicine worldwide. Several formulations of UD leaf extract have been reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, with anticancer

The flowers of French marigold (Tagetes patula L.) are widely used in folk medicine, in particular for treating inflammation-related disorders. However, cellular mechanisms of this activity demand further investigation. In the present work, we studied the potential of T. patula compounds to

Kalanchoe brasiliensis and Kalanchoe pinnata are used interchangeably in traditional medicine for treating peptic ulcers and inflammatory problems. In this context, this study aims to characterize the chemical constituents and evaluate the gastroprotective activity of the leaf juices of the two
