We have reported that an extract of Scutellaria baicalensis (ESB) has effects against obesity and hypertriglyceridemia in type 2 diabetic animal model (db/db mouse). In the present study, we tried to explain the pharmacological effects of ESB by integrating gene expression information from db/db mouse liver with that of ESB-treated HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Using Connectivity Map (c...

BACKGROUND This study reported a comprehensive approach (comparing the extraction yields, chemical profiles, antioxidant properties and CYP450-inhibitory effects) to evaluated the effectiveness of various extraction methods [microwave-assisted extraction using water (MAE-W), heat reflux extraction using water (HRE-W), ultrasonic extraction using 70 % ethanol and ultrasonic extraction using etha...

background: medicinal plants (especially belong to lamiaceae family) are potential sources of new drugs to improve the treatment of diseases whose treatment is associated to anti-oxidative agents. in this paper, the ferric reducing ability of plasma (frap) activity of some lamiaceae and apiaceae species, has been evaluated. methods: aerial parts of the plants were dried, cut into small pieces a...

Collagen protein is obtained from fresh pigskin through hydrolysis with trypsin. By further adding extracts from scutellaria baicalensis (a Chinese herb), glutaraldehyde and etc., a novel type of collagen burn-healing membrane can be prepared. This novel type of membrane has a porous cross-linked netlike structure. The degree of crosslinking and mechanical properties of the membrane are examine...
