OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to evaluate the relaxant effect of scoparone from Artemisia capillaris on rabbit penile corpus cavernosum smooth muscle (PCCSM) and to elucidate the mechanism of action of scoparone for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED).
METHODS
PCCSM that had been
Abstract Scoparone is an active ingredient of Yinchenhao (Artemisia annua L.), a well-known Chinese medicinal plant, and has been utilized in prevention and therapy of liver damage. However, the molecular drug targets associated with the pharmacological effects of scoparone are largely unknown. In
In the present study, scoparone isolated from Artemisia Capillaris Flos has been investigated to determine its pharmacological properties on the heart. Scoparone was found to cause the increase in coronary flow and heart rate, but did not affect cardiac output, left ventricular pressure or left
Antioxidant capabilities of scoparone, the component of Artemisia scoparia and other medicinal plants, against lipid peroxidation induced by ultraviolet radiation or Fenton reaction have been analyzed. Lipid peroxidation was monitored by measuring the absorption spectra of the conjugated dienes and
Tissue factor (TF) is an important regulator and effector molecule of coagulation in various inflammatory states. In sepsis, expression of TF by activated endothelial cells leads to disseminated intravascular coagulation. Scoparone is extracted from the traditional Chinese herb ARTEMISIA SCOPARIA
Activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) plays a critical role in liver fibrosis. Scoparone, a major constituent isolated from Artemisia capillaris, was reported to possess hepatoprotective effect. However, the role of scoparone in liver fibrosis remains unknown. In the present study, we
Scoparone, one of the bioactive components of Artemisia capillaris Thunb, has various biological properties including immunosuppressive, hepatoprotective, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. This study aims at evaluating the anti-osteoporotic effect of scoparone and its
Emodin and scoparone, the active principles isolated from Polygonum multiflorum and Artemisia scoparia, respectively, both exhibit vasorelaxant and immunosuppressive effects. Emodin (10(-6)-3 x 10(-5) M) and scoparone (10(-6)-3 x 10(-5) M) dose dependently relaxed rat thoracic aortic rings
Scoparone (6,7-dimethoxycoumarin) is the representative ingredient of Yinchenhao (Artemisia capillaris Thunb.) which is a famous Chinese medicinal herb and shows favorable efficacy for all kinds of liver disease, specifically for the treatment of Yanghuang syndrome (YHS). The precise molecular
OBJECTIVE
Scoparone (6,7-dimethoxycoumarin), a coumarin isolated from a hypolipidaemic Chinese herb Artemisia scoparia, has vasodilator and antiproliferative activities and possesses free radical scavenging properties in vitro. The aim of the study was to investigate the morphological effects of
Scoparone is a major component of the shoot of Artemisia capillaris (Compositae), which has been used for the treatment of hepatitis and biliary tract infection in oriental countries. In this study, the effects of scoparone on the expression of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that is commonly accompanied by inflammation. Scoparone is a biologically active constituent isolated from Artemisia capillaris and possesses anti-inflammatory activity. However, the effect of scoparone on inflammatory response in OA has not been
The present study attempts to elucidate the anti-osteoporotic activity of Artemisia capillaris Thunb. in the form of anti-osteoclastic effect and responsible bioactive compounds. The contents of chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, hyperoside, isoquercitrin, isochlorogenic acid A, and scoparone in
Scoparone is a major component of the shoot of Artemisia capillaris (Compositae), which has been used for the treatment of hepatitis and biliary tract infection in oriental countries. In the present study we observed that, scorparone exhibited no cytotoxic effect in unstimulated macrophages, but
Scoparone is an important constituent of Yinchenhao (Artemisia annua L.), a famous medicinal plant, and displayed bright prospects in the prevention and therapy of liver injury. However, the precise molecular mechanism of hepatoprotective effects has not been comprehensively explored. Here,
