Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is becoming of increasing significance due to its growing global prevalence and risk of progression to end-stage liver disease. This study was carried out to investigate the potential anti-inflammatory, insulin sensitizing, and antifibrotic effects of diosmin in

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a global health problem and is fourth leading cause of cancer related deaths. Now-a-days new strategies have been accounted for the chemoprevention of liver cancer due to ineffective traditional treatments against HCC. In the present study, we have shown that

Nephropathy is a serious complication of metabolic syndrome (MS), a global epidemic disorder. This study was undertaken to investigate the actions of diosmin and crocin, two natural ingredients, on diabetic nephropathy in a rat model of MS and the underlying mechanism(s). Metabolic syndrome was

Gram-negative bacterial infections induce inflammation and pain. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a pathogen-associated molecular pattern and the major constituent of Gram-negative bacterial cell walls. Diosmin is a citrus flavonoid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Here we investigated

BACKGROUND Diosmin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, is considered as a vascular-protective agent and is used orally to treat chronic venous insufficiency. It exhibits anti-inflammatory and free radical scavenging properties, but, like many other flavonoids, it is poorly absorbed in the small

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an important key health concern for aging men. Polyphenolic compounds have been found to possess important roles in the inhibition of numerous ailments that involve reactive oxygen species and inflammation. Diosmin is a citrus flavone that possesses antioxidant,

The intestinal anti-inflammatory activity of two flavonoids, hesperidin and diosmin, was evaluated in the acute stage of the trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) model of rat colitis. The results obtained showed that pretreatment with diosmin (10 mg/kg) or hesperidin (10 and 25 mg/kg) reduced colonic

The present investigation was designed to evaluate the efficacy of diosmin against ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity in rats by modulating various mechanisms including ethanol metabolizing enzymes, generation of free radicals, imbalance in oxidant-antioxidant status, oxidative damage to membrane

Diosmin, a natural flavonoid glycoside present abundantly in the pericarp of various citrus fruits. Because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, it can be used in many diseases. In this study, we investigated the possible protective mechanisms of the diosmin on LPS-induced lung

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting colon. The primary symptoms of UC are diarrhoea with blood and mucus and sometimes associated with pain. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the effects of diosmin (DIO) on UC. METHODS UC was induced in rats by rectal

Diabetes with poor glycemic control is accompanying with an increased risk of disease namely atherosclerotic cardiovascular. Diosmin (DSN), which is obtained from citrus fruit used to assist the treatment of hemorrhoids or chronic venous atherosclerosis diseases, has an antioxidant,

OBJECTIVE Retinal swelling, leading to irreversible visual impairment, is an important early complication in retinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Diosmin, a naturally occurring flavonoid glycoside, has been shown to have antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects against I/R injury. The

Liver ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is an important pathologic process leading to bodily systemic effects and liver injury. Our study aimed to investigate the protective effects of diosmin, a phlebotrophic drug with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, in a liver IRI model. Forty rats were

Flavonoids are herbal medicines and widely used for chronic venous diseases and hemorrhoids. Flavonoid diosmin in both micronized and non-micronized form is a part of various drugs. According to literature data, flavonoids are able to reduce venous stasis, suppress local inflammation, improve venous

The aim of this study was to compare the protective effect of a flavonoid, the 3',5,7-trihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone 7-rutinoside or diosmin, on liver microsomal lipid peroxidation induced in rats by either carbon tetrachloride or carrageenan. Thirty rats were divided into five groups. Group 1
