Investigation of faecal volatile organic metabolites as novel diagnostic biomarkers in inflammatory bowel disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains poorly understood. Recent evidence suggests an important role of gut microbial dysbiosis in IBD, and this may be associated with changes in faecal volatile organic metabolites (VOMs). OBJECTIVE To describe the changes in the faecal

Tackling multiple antibiotic resistance in enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) clinical isolates: a diarylheptanoid from Alpinia officinarum shows promising antibacterial and immunomodulatory activity against EPEC and its lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation.

Antibiotic treatment for infectious diseases commonly leads to host inflammatory responses. Molecules with bifunctional antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties could provide a solution for such clinical manifestations. Here we report such bifunctional activity for a diarylheptanoid

Isolates of Alpinia officinarum Hance as COX-2 inhibitors: Evidence from anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and molecular docking studies.

BACKGROUND Inflammation triggered by oxidative stress can cause various ailments, such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, diabetes etc. In the last few years, there has been a renewed interest in studying the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action of plant constituents such as flavonoids and

[Oxidative stress-mediated chemical modifications to biomacromolecules: mechanism and implication of modifications to human skin keratins and angiotensin II].

Dysregulated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during oxidative stress has been associated with a number of inflammatory and age-related degenerative diseases. ROS can directly react with DNA to form oxidized DNA bases. Direct protein oxidation and carbonylation occur on certain amino acid

An analysis on the suppression of NO and PGE2 by diphenylheptane A and its effect on glycerophospholipids of lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7 cells with UPLC/ESI-QTOF-MS.

Diarylheptanoid A, 5-hydroxy-7-(4'-hydroxy-3'-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-heptanone, is a naturally occurring phytochemical ingredient isolated from the rhizome of Alpinia officinarum. In order to confirm the anti-inflammatory activity of diphenylheptane A, we investigated its effects on

Effects of yakuchinone A and yakuchinone B on the phorbol ester-induced expression of COX-2 and iNOS and activation of NF-kappaB in mouse skin.

Certain medicinal plants contain anti-inflammatory and antioxidative substances that can exert chemopreventive effects. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the methanol extract of Alpinia oxyphylla Miquel (Zingiberaceae) inhibits tumor promotion in mouse skin. Two major diarylheptanoids

Molecular mechanisms of chemopreventive effects of selected dietary and medicinal phenolic substances.

Only registered users can translate articles

Recently, considerable attention has been focused on identifying naturally occurring chemopreventive substances capable of inhibiting, retarding, or reversing the multi-stage carcinogenesis. A wide array of phenolic substances, particularly those present in dietary and medicinal plants, have been

PHMH, a diarylheptanoid from Alpinia officinarum attenuates VEGF-induced angiogenesis via inhibition of the VEGFR-2 signaling pathway.

The rhizome of Alpinia officinarum Hance, a popular spice used as a condiment in China and Europe, has various reported bioactivities, including anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. However, its anti-angiogenic activity has not previously been reported. In this study, a

Genotoxicity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in both in vitro and in vivo assay systems.

Only registered users can translate articles

The genotoxic effects of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were examined by using in vitro and in vivo assays. MWCNTs significantly induced micronuclei in A549 cells and enhanced the frequency of sister chromatid exchange (SCE) in CHO AA8 cells. When ICR mice were intratracheally instilled with
