phthalide/stroke

Background: Compound Dan Zhi tablet (DZT) is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine formula. It has been used for the treatment of ischemic stroke for many years in clinical. However, its pharmacological mechanism is

Phthalides, and their corresponding dihydro and tetrahydro analogues, are components of several genera of the plant family Apiaceae. These taxa have been reported as exhibiting a wide range of bioactivities against experimental models of several illnesses and physiological conditions, including

The macrophage scavenger receptor 1 (MSR1)-induced resolution of neuroinflammation may be a novel therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. Our previous study showed that the neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of phthalide are associated with the inhibition of the post-ischemic

Microglia can be activated to become the classic phenotype (M1) or alternative phenotype (M2), which play an important role in regulating neuroinflammatory response and tissue repair after ischemic stroke. CD21, a novel phthalide derivative, is a potential neuroprotectant against ischemic brain

The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome is closely related to ischemic brain injury and inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation may be a new therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. Our previous studies showed that ligustilide (LIG) had a dose-dependent neuroprotective effect on various models of

As part of our continuing efforts to discover structurally interesting bioactive phthalide derivatives, 23 of them with a structure incorporating thiophen or halogens were designed and synthesized, 17 of which are previously unreported. In vitro antiplatelet aggregation activity screening

Phthalides are a relatively small group of natural compounds confined to several plant families and some genera of fungi and liverworts. They are divided into two structural groups, the monomeric and dimeric phthalides, and known mainly as bioactive constituents of different plant species used

New analogues of n-butylphthalide (NBP) bearing various lengths of alkyl and different substitution at the two-position of phthalide were designed and synthesised. Preliminary evaluation and prediction of ACD LogP software indicate that the derivatives display significant improvement in water

Nao-Mai-Tong (NMT), a Chinese herbal formula, is used for treating ischemia cerebral apoplexy. To discover the components of NMT with potential in vivo bioactivity and investigate the differences between NMT and its single herb components, this study rigorously compared plasma samples collected from

BACKGROUND Ligusticum species (Umbelliferae) have been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, Korean folk medicine and Native American medicine for their medicinal and nutritional value. Decoctions of the rhizomes are used in treatment and prophylaxis of migraine, anemia and cardiovascular

BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common neurological emergency with higher mortality and disability rate than cerebral ischemia. Although diverse therapeutic interventions have been explored for potential neuroprotection from ICH, no effective drugs until now are available for
