Ergosterol ameliorates renal inflammatory responses in mice model of diabetic nephropathy

Only registered users can translate articles

Ergosterol (ERG) was reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities. Besides, ERG was found to attenuate kidney injury in the diabetic mouse. However, the protective effect of ERG in diabetic nephropathy-induced inflammation remains unclear. We aimed to study whether ERG could

Muramic acid, endotoxin, 3-hydroxy fatty acids, and ergosterol content explain monocyte and epithelial cell inflammatory responses to agricultural dusts.

Ergosterol peroxide has been shown to exhibit anti-tumor, antioxidant and anti-bacterial properties. However, the effects of ergosterol peroxide isolated from the herbal Baphicacanthus cusia root on influenza virus infection remain poorly understood. In the present study, ergosterol peroxide

Ergosterol attenuates cigarette smoke extract-induced COPD by modulating inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis in vitro and in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cigarette smoke (CS) is the major cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). CS heightens inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis. Ergosterol is the main bioactive ingredient in Cordyceps sinensis (C. sinensis), a traditional medicinal herb for various diseases. The

Effects of Ergosterol, Isolated from Scleroderma Polyrhizum Pers., on Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Responses in Acute Lung Injury.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study aimed to investigate the protective role of ergosterol, isolated from Scleroderma polyrhizum Pers., in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI). ALI was induced in mice by LPS (0.5 mg/kg), and ergosterol (25 and 50 mg/kg) was administrated orally 1 h prior to LPS

Ergosterol of Cordyceps militaris Attenuates LPS Induced Inflammation in BV2 Microglia Cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Different solvent extracts of Cordyceps militaris stroma powder were tested for cell viability and inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggered BV2 microglia cells. Chemical investigation of the ethyl acetate fraction resulted in an enriched ergosterol

Anti-inflammatory activity of new compounds from Andrographis paniculata by NF-kappaB transactivation inhibition.

Only registered users can translate articles

Previous studies showed that the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction of Andrographis paniculata (AP) possessed anti-inflammatory activity. This study further isolated these active compounds from bioactivity-guided chromatographic fractionation and identified eight pure compounds. Reporter gene assay

Anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities of extracts and compounds from the mushroom Inonotus obliquus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Mushroom Inonotus obliquus (I. obliquus) has been used as functional food and traditional Chinese herbs for long time. An efficient method for bioassay-guided preparative isolation was used for identifying the anti-inflammatory and anticancer constituents in I. obliquus. The petroleum ether and

Upregulation of death receptor 5 and activation of caspase 8/3 play a critical role in ergosterol peroxide induced apoptosis in DU 145 prostate cancer cells.
