Two new flavonol glycosides, named icarisid B (1) and icarisid C (2), along with seven known flavonol glycosides were isolated from the bioassay-directed fractions of the aqueous extract of Epimedium koreanum Nakai. The structures of the two new compounds were established on the basis of chemical
3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide test and alkaline phosphatase activity assay were employed to assess the effects of mixed trace elements including Zn(2+), Ca(2+), and Mn(2+) plus total flavonoids or icariin from Epimedium koreanum on the proliferation and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of total flavonoid extract of Epimedium sagittatum (TFE) on the proliferation and differentiation of newborn rat calvarial osteoblasts (ROB).
METHODS
TFE was supplemented into the culture medium of ROB at 0. 1, 1, 10 and 100 microg x mL(-1) respectively. The
OBJECTIVE
To observe the effect of total flavones of Epimedium leptorrhizum (YYH-C) on osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats.
METHODS
Ovariectomized female rats were randomly divided into the model group, YYH-C lower, middle and high dose (0.7, 1.4, 2.8 g x kg(-1)) groups, the positive drug Bujiale
Osteoporosis is the most widespread metabolic bone disease characterized by decreased bone mass and bone quality, and its diagnosis and treatment remains challenging. To date, medicinal plants have received increasing attention from researchers for researching effective and less toxic therapeutic
Since the total flavonoid extract (TFE) of Epimedium herb was found to prevent osteoporosis induced by ovariectomy in rats, we have been attempting to identify the exact compound responsible for the bone-strengthening activity. In this experiment, four flavonoid extracts were obtained from Epimedium
BACKGROUND
Wear particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis that results in aseptic loosening is the most common cause of long-term failure after total joint replacement.
METHODS
Icariin (ICA), a flavonoid isolated from Epimedium pubescens, inhibits osteoclast formation, but its effects on wear
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of icariin, an effective extract from traditional Chinese medicine Epimedium pubescens with the function of tonifying kidney, in promoting osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cell line C3H10T1/2, and to explore the underlying mechanism.
METHODS
After culture with
The therapeutic properties of Epimediumkoreanum are presumed to be due to the flavonoid component icariin, which has been reported to have broad pharmacological potential and has demonstrated anti-diabetic, anti-Alzheimer's disease, anti-tumor, and hepatoprotective activities. Considering these
Icariin (ICA), is one of the main effective components isolated from the traditional Chinese herb Epimedium brevicornu Maxim, has been reported to possess extensive pharmacological actions, including enhanced sexual function, immune regulation, anti-inflammation, and anti-osteoporosis. Our study was
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study is to determine anti-cancer effect of Icariside II purified from the root of Epimedium koreanum Nakai on human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line U937.
RESULTS
Icariside II blocked the growth U937 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In this
BACKGROUND
Icariin (I), ferulic acid (F) and timosaponin B II (T) derived respectively from the leaf of Epimedium brevicornu Maxim (EBM, Berberidaceae), rhizome of Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge (AAB, Liliaceae) and root of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels (ASD, Umbelliferae) are included in several
In a bioassay-guided drug screening for anti-osteoporosis activity, eight flavonol glycosides were isolated from Epimedium koreanum Nakai, which is traditionally widely used in China for the treatment of impotence and osteoporosis. The effects of total flavonoids and flavonol glycosides on the
OBJECTIVE
Icariin, a flavonoid isolated from Epimedium pubescens, has previously been identified to exert beneficial effects on preventing bone loss and promoting bone regeneration. However, molecular mechanisms for its anabolic action have, up to now, remained largely unknown.
METHODS
Effects of
BACKGROUND
Epimedium brevicornum Maxim has long been used for the treatment of osteoporosis in China and other Asian countries. However, the mechanism behind the antiosteoporotic activity of this medicinal plant is not fully understood.
OBJECTIVE
The present study was designed to investigate the
