Infantile hemangiomas are composed of endothelial cells (ECs), endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), as well as perivascular and hematopoietic cells. Our hypothesis is that hemangioma-derived EPCs (HemEPCs) differentiate into the mature ECs that comprise the major compartment of the tumor. To test this, we isolated EPCs (CD133 /Ulex europeus– I ) and mature ECs (CD133 /Ulex europeus– I ) from pr...

Hericium erinaceus (H. erinaceus) has a long history of usage in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of gastric disorders. Recently, it has become a well-established candidate in causing positive brain and nerve health-related activities by inducing nerve growth factor (NGF) from its bioactive ingredient, erinacine A. This active compound, which exists only in fermented mycelium but ...

Peripheral nerve injury represents a huge burden to society. Following peripheral nerve injury, improved behavioral outcome may be the most important evidence of functionality of axonal regeneration after any repair strategy. Nerve-crush injury is a well-established axonotmetic model in experimental regeneration studies to investigate the impact of various pharmacological treatments. Hericium e...

Introduction: Hericium erinaceus is a medicinal and culinary mushroom that widely present in the countries of East Asia. Bioactive compounds derived from fruiting body or its mycelium have many properties, including: antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, as well hypolipidemic properties. It also has potential to treat neurological disorders it contains neurotrophic can cross blood-brain...

BACKGROUND Hericium erinaceus has been reported to have a wide range of medicinal properties such as stimulation of neurite outgrowth, promotion of functional recovery of axonotmetic peroneal nerve injury, antioxidant, antihypertensive, and antidiabetic properties. In recent years, the green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has attracted intense interest due to the potential use in biome...

One new cycloartane-type saponin, 3-O-[β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→2)-β-D-xylopyranosyl]-6-O-β-Dglucuronopyranosyl-3β,6α,16β,24(S),25-pentahydroxyxyxloartane (1) was isolated from the MeOH extract of whole plant parts of Astragalus erinaceus along with 5 known saponins (2-6), cyclodissectoside, cycloastragenol, 6-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-3β,6α,16β,24(S),25-pentahydroxycycloartane, oleifolioside B and 3,6d...
