rhinacanthus nasutus/inflammation

In this present study, rhinacanthins-rich extract (RRE) and rhinacanthin C (RC) the main bioactive constituent of Rhinacanthus nasutus was investigated for their protective effect against diabetic nephropathy (DN). Diabetes was induced by administering nicotinamide (100 mg/kg, i.p.)/streptozotocin

OBJECTIVE High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) was shown to be a major extracellular mediator involved in relayed neuro-inflammation in animals after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). It is of interest to examine the effect of rhinacanthin-C (RCT-C, C25H30O5) on pro-inflammatory cytokines/HMGB1 in an

OBJECTIVE In order to assess traditional Thai claims about the therapeutic potential of medicinal plants and to select plants for future phytochemical research, nine plant species with anti-inflammatory uses were selected from Thai textbooks and assessed for their in vitro anti-inflammatory,

Three naphthoquinone derivatives, rhinacanthin-C (1), -D (2) and -N (3) were isolated from the leaves of Rhinacanthus nasutus extract and were tested for anti-inflammatory activity. The result indicated that all three compounds possessed very potent anti-inflammatory activity against

Rhinacanthin C is a naphthoquinone ester with anti-inflammatory activity, found in Rhinacanthus nasutus (L) Kurz (Acanthaceae). We found that rhinacanthin C inhibited osteoclast differentiation stimulated by the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) in mouse bone marrow macrophage

Centella asiatica (CA) and Rhinacanthus nasutus (RN) are Thai medicinal plants traditionally used to treat a variety of disorders including inflammatory conditions and infections. Nitric oxide (NO) produced from activated macrophages plays a role in both inflammatory and anti-inflammatory processes.

Neuroinflammation plays a central role in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Compounds that suppress neuroinflammation have been identified as potential therapeutic targets for AD. Rhinacanthin C (RC), a naphthoquinone ester found in Rhinacanthus nasutus Kurz (Acanthaceae), is
