Withaferin A ameliorates renal injury due to its potent effect on inflammatory signaling.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the major global health concerns and is responsible for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) complications. Inflammation plays a pivotal role in the progression of CKD. In the present study, we evaluated the renoprotective effects of a potent immunomodulator

Withaferin A inhibits inflammatory responses induced by Fusobacterium nucleatum and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans in macrophages.

Only registered users can translate articles

Periodontitis is a progressive chronic inflammatory disease and a major cause of tooth loss in humans. As a withanolides, withaferin A (WA) is known to exhibit strong anti‑inflammatory activity. The present study examined whether WA inhibited inflammatory responses in macrophages in response to two

Inhibition of inflammatory cytokine-induced response in human islet cells by withaferin A.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND After islet cell transplantation, a substantial mass of islets are lost owing to nonspecific inflammatory reactions. Cytokine exposure before or after transplantation can upregulate expression of proinflammatory genes via the nuclear factor-kappaB signaling pathway, eventually resulting

The Chemopreventive effect of Withaferin A on spontaneous and Inflammation-associated colon carcinogenesis models.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chemopreventive effects and associated mechanisms of Withaferin A (WA) against intestinal and colon carcinogenesis remain unknown. We investigated the chemopreventive effect of WA on transgenic mouse APCMin/+ and chemically induced azoxymethane/dextran sodium sulfate (AOM/DSS) models of intestinal

Withaferin A Protects Against High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity Via Attenuation of Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Insulin Resistance.

Only registered users can translate articles

Withaferin A (WA), a bioactive constituent derived from Withania somnifera plant, has been shown to exhibit many qualifying properties in attenuating several metabolic diseases. The current investigation sought to elucidate the protective mechanisms of WA (1.25 mg/kg/day) on pre-existing obese mice

Withaferin A protects against palmitic acid-induced endothelial insulin resistance and dysfunction through suppression of oxidative stress and inflammation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Activation of inflammatory pathways via reactive oxygen species (ROS) by free fatty acids (FFA) in obesity gives rise to insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction. Withaferin A (WA), possesses both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and therefore would be a good strategy to suppress

Withaferin A Associated Differential Regulation of Inflammatory Cytokines.

Only registered users can translate articles

A role of inflammation-associated cytokines/chemokines has been implicated in a wide variety of human diseases. Here, we investigated the regulation of inflammatory cytokines released by monocyte-derived THP-1 cells following treatment with the dietary agent withaferin A (WFA). Membrane-based

Withaferin A protects against spinal cord injury by inhibiting apoptosis and inflammation in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Withaferin A (WFA) exhibits diverse pharmaceutical applications on human diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, cancers and microbial infection. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the neuroprotective role of WFA using a mouse model of spinal cord injury (SCI). METHODS BALB/c mice were

Withaferin A attenuates bleomycin-induced scleroderma by targeting FoxO3a and NF-κβ signaling: Connecting fibrosis and inflammation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Scleroderma is an inflammatory autoimmune disease which begins with inflammation due to tissue injury and advances to progressive accumulation of extracellular matrix resulting in scarring and hardening of the skin. Inflammation is a salutary response to tissue injury caused by varied factors. While

Withaferin A Inhibits Nuclear Factor-κB-Dependent Pro-Inflammatory and Stress Response Pathways in the Astrocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Several lines of evidence suggest that astrocytes play a key role in modulating the immune responses of the central nervous system (CNS) to infections, injuries, or pathologies. Yet, their contribution to these processes remains mostly elusive. Astroglia are endowed with a wide range of toll-like

Barrier protective effects of withaferin A in HMGB1-induced inflammatory responses in both cellular and animal models.

Only registered users can translate articles

Withaferin A (WFA), an active compound from Withania somnifera, is widely researched for its anti-inflammatory, cardioactive and central nervous system effects. In this study, we first investigated the possible barrier protective effects of WFA against pro-inflammatory responses in human umbilical

Withaferin A, a novel compound of Indian ginseng (Withania somnifera), ameliorates Cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis: Possible role of oxidative stress and inflammation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas that may precipitate due to various reasons such as chronic alcoholism, gall stone obstruction, and life style. Current treatment options offer limited efficacy, as they provide only symptomatic relief. This study is an attempt to study

Inhibition of monosodium urate crystal-induced inflammation by withaferin A.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Gouty arthritis is a characteristically intense acute inflammatory reaction resulting from the formation of sodium urate crystals in the joint cavity. In the present study, the effect of withaferin A, a steroidal lactone was investigated on monosodium urate crystal-induced inflammation in

Inhibition of NFkappaB by the natural product Withaferin A in cellular models of Cystic Fibrosis inflammation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common autosomal genetic disorders in humans. This disease is caused by mutations within a single gene, coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The phenotypic hallmark of CF is chronic lung infection and associated

Withaferin A inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokine-induced damage to islets in culture and following transplantation.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Beta cell death triggered by pro-inflammatory cytokines plays a central role in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes and loss of transplanted islets. The nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signalling pathway is a key regulator of beta cell stress response, survival and apoptosis. Withaferin A (WA),
