The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of powder particle size on the cytoprotective and antioxidant activity of Hedera helix (HH) and Scrophularia nodosa (SN), two medicinal plants more commonly known as ivy and figwort, against H2O2-induced
Ferulic acid (FA), isolated from the root of Scrophularia buergeriana, is a phenolic compound possessing antioxidant, anticancer, and antiinflammatory activities. Here, we have investigated the hepatoprotective effect of FA against carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4))-induced acute liver injury. Mice were
In previous work, we isolated 7 neuroprotective iridoid glycosides from the 90% MeOH fraction of Scrophularia buergeriana (Scrophulariaceae). We therefore investigated the mode of action of 8-O-E-p-methoxycinnamoyl-harpagide (8-MCA-Harp), the most potent neuroprotective iridoid, and its aglycone,
Phenylpropanoids isolated from the roots of Scrophularia buergeriana MIQ. (Scrophulariaceae) protected primary cultures of rat hepatocytes from toxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4) ). In this report, we show that two of these phenylpropanoids, 4-O-E-
OBJECTIVE
The cognitive-enhancing and antioxidant activities of KD-501, a standardized extract of the roots of Scrophularia buergeriana Miquel (Scrophulariceae) were investigated.
METHODS
KD-501 was orally administered to amnesic mice induced by scopolamine and we performed passive avoidance and the
The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant and anti‑apoptotic activities, as well as the underlying mechanisms of action, of Scrophularia buergeriana (S. buergeriana) extract (SBE) in glutamate‑induced SH‑SY5Y cell death. The roots of S. buergeriana were extracted with 70% ethanol, and
The cognitive-enhancing activities of E-harpagoside and 8-O-E-p-methoxycinnamoylharpagide (MCA-Hg) isolated from Scrophularia buergeriana were evaluated in scopolamine-induced amnesic mice by the Morris water maze and by passive avoidance tests. E-harpagoside and MCA-Hg significantly improved the
