Tanshinone IIA Protects against Dextran Sulfate Sodium- (DSS-) Induced Colitis in Mice by Modulation of Neutrophil Infiltration and Activation
Neutrophils play a critical role in the initiation and maintenance of intestinal inflammation. However, conventional neutrophil-targeted therapies can impair normal host defense. Tanshinone IIA has been recently revealed to act directly on neutrophils. Hence, we aimed at investigating whether Tanshinone IIA can protect against experimental colitis through modulation of neutrophils. We induced c...
متن کاملTanshinone IIA pretreatment attenuates hepatic ischemia-reperfusion.
Tanshinone IIA (Tan IIA), an active component derived from Salvia miltiorrhiza root, has been used to treat various ischemic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, its impact on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains unclear. Here, we addressed this issue by using a 90-minute partial liver ischemia model. Mice were administered Tan IIA intragastrically for 3 days befor...
متن کاملTanshinone IIA: A Promising Natural Cardioprotective Agent
Tanshinone IIA (Tan IIA) is a member of the major lipophilic components extracted from the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, which is currently used in China and other neighboring countries to treat patients suffering from myocardial infarction (MI), angina pectoris, stroke, diabetes, sepsis, and other conditions. However, Tan IIA is not easy to be absorbed through intestinal pathway. To raise...
متن کاملMelatonin ameliorates testicular damages induced by nicotine in mice
Objective(s): Nicotine as a toxic substance leads to impairment of the reproductive system function. The aim of this study was to evaluate effects of melatonin on testicular alterations, sperm nuclear integrity, and epididymal sperm parameters in mice treated with nicotine.Materials and Methods: Male mice were divided into four groups. Group A received the vehicle, group B received nicotine 0.1...
متن کاملNeutrophil chemotaxis in juvenile chronic arthritis.
The leucocyte infiltration observed in histological lesions from patients with juvenile chronic arthritis (JCA) suggests the possibility of an abnormal leucochemotaxis. A group of 21 patients with JCA which fulfilled the Eular criteria (Oslo Symposium 77) were investigated with a paired group of 21 children. The chemotactic assay used was a microscopical direct observation technique. The chemot...
