magnolia acuminata/hypoxia

The protective effect of magnolol, a component of Magnolia officinalis, against hypoxia-induced cell injury in cortical neuron-astrocyte mixed cultures was examined. Exposure of the cells to chemical hypoxia (0.5 mM KCN) produced morphological changes in neurons but not in astrocytes. KCN induced

The hypoxic environment in tumors is an important factor causing tumor angiogenesis by activating the key transcription factor, hypoxia-inducible factors-1α (HIF-1α). Magnolol isolated from Magnolia officinalis has been reported to exhibit an anticancer activity via elevation of apoptosis. However,

Hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) plays a central role in cell survival, invasion, metastasis and angiogenesis, and also is emerging as an important target in anti-cancer drug discovery. In the present study, bishonokiol A, a dimeric neolignan isolated from Magnolia grandiflora, was identified as

During critical periods of neurodevelopment, the immature brain is susceptible to neuronal hyperexcitability, alterations such as hyperthermia, hypoxia, brain trauma or a preexisting neuroinflammatory condition can trigger, promote and prolong epileptiform activity and facilitate the development of

BACKGROUND Since the increasing smoking rate among women has resulted in higher rates of embryonic malformations, it is important to search for an efficient and inexpensive agent that can help reduce the rate of serious fetal anomalies caused by maternal cigarette smoking. In this study, the

OBJECTIVE Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by acute hypoxemia with diffuse alveolar damage and increased pulmonary microvascular permeability. Honokiol (HKL), the principal active ingredient of Chinese herb magnolia officinalis, protected the lung of experimental ARDS

The antioxidant function of edible flowers have attracted increasing interest. However, information is lacking on the impact of edible flowers on oxidative injury including hypoxia-re-oxygenation and hyperlipidemia. The antioxidant activities of aqueous extracts from 12 Chinese edible flowers were
