Bupleuran 2IIc, a pectic polysaccharide isolated from the roots of Bupleurum falcatum L., was previously characterized as a T cell-independent B cell mitogen. The endo-(1-->4)-alpha-D-polygalacturonase-resistant moiety of bupleuran 2IIc (bupleuran 2IIc/PG-1) was the active site for expression of the
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the progressive neurodegenerative diseases of whose condition is characterized by dopaminergic neuronal cell loss and dysfunction in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and the striatum. Recent studies have demonstrated that the nuclear receptor-related 1
Bupleuran 2IIc, a pectic polysaccharide isolated from the roots of bupleurum falcatum L., was previously characterized as a T-cell-independent B cell mitogen. This study focuses on elucidating the mechanism by which bupleuran 2IIc induces cyclin D2 production for inducing mitogenesis in murine B
The immunoregulatory action of saikosaponin-d (SSd), which was isolated from the root of Bupleurum falcatum L. and has a steroid-like structure, was examined on splenic T lymphocytes of C57BL/6 mice. SSd displayed a definite action in vitro to bidirectionally control the growth response of T
Previous studies have demonstrated that repeated restraint stress in rodents produces increases in depression and anxietylike behaviors and alters the expression of corticotrophinreleasing factor (CRF) in the hypothalamus. The current study focused on the impact of Bupleurum falcatum (BF) extract
β-Conglycinin is one of the major storage proteins in soybean and has been identified as a potential diagnostic marker for severe allergic reactions to soybean. Unfortunately, there is a lack of information on the signal transduction pathways of β-conglycinin induced mast cell activation and how to
In traditional Oriental medicine, some herbal combinations that include Bupleurum falcatum (BFM) as a major ingredient are known to effectively treat depressive-like disorders. In the present study, the antidepressant-like effect of methanolic extract of BFM and its neuropharmacological mechanism
