Licorice, the oldest Chinese traditional medicine, is widely used in the treatment of human diseases. Due to the deficiency of wild resource, selecting and breeding becomes a key issue to expanding the supply of licorice. Spaceflight technology will become a new method for medicinal plants. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of spaceflight on the components and anti-inflamma...

Objective(s): Occludin is essential for proper assembly of tight junctions (TJs) which regulate paracellular endothelial permeability. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Ω-3 PUFA) protect endothelial barrier function against injury. Materials and Methods: We examined anti-inflammatory effect of Ω-3 PUFA intake (30 mg/kg/day for 10 days) on expression and location of occludin in the aorta of ...

Transcription factor NF-κB and relevant cytokines IL-6 and IL-8 play a pivotal role in thepathogenesis of inflammation. Sinapic acid is a natural product and was demonstrated to possessanti-inflammatory activity. In this paper, we synthesized a series of sinapic acid derivativesand evaluated their anti-inflammatory effects. The result suggested that all of the targetscompounds 7a-j inhibit NF-κ...

Hydrocotyle umbellata L. (Family Araliaceae) populary known as Acaricoba, is indicated in folk medicine for treatment of several inflammatory disorders. The goal of the present study is to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of the defatted ethanolic extract (DEE) of the aerial parts using carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema method. The levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interl...

To determine the pharmacological (Anti-inflammatory) potential of in-vitro cultures of Asparagus racemosus. Anti-inflammatory activity of methanolic extracts of shoot, root their calli and genetically transformed shoot culture was performed using carrageenan induced rat paw edema method. The albino rats were treated orally with two dosage (500 or 1000 mg/kg body weight of rats) of drugs, one ho...
