Despite scopolin is a main coumarin constituent in the stems of Erycibe obtusifolia Benth, a herb drug that has long been utilized in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, little information is available about the pharmacological activities of this compound. The

Scopoletin is the main constituent of coumarin found in the stems of Erycibe obtusifolia Benth, a traditional Chinese medicine used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. We have previously demonstrated that scopoletin is able to decrease the serum level of uric acid in hyperuricemic mice induced

Immature dendritic cells (iDCs) play very important roles in the pathological process of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Therefore, it is urgent to search for natural products with antiproliferative activity on iDCs for anti-RA drug discovery. Erycibe schmidtii, a traditional Chinese medicine, has been

Erycibe henryi Prain ("Ting Kung Teng"), a species of Convolvulaceae, has been used in Chinese medicine to relieve pain involving the musculoskeletal system, such as arthritis, sciatica, and traumatic tissue swelling.

Previous work in our laboratory has shown that scopoletin, one of the main bioactive constituents of Erycibe obtusifolia Benth stems, exerts anti-arthritic activity in vivo partly by preventing synovial angiogenesis. The present study was performed to further investigate the anti-angiogenic

Our previous studies revealed that scopoletin, the main bioactive constituent of Erycibe obtusifolia Benth stems, exerted anti-arthritic activity in vivo partly by preventing synovial angiogenesis. Herein we further investigated the anti-angiogenic potential and related mechanisms of this coumarin
