millettia extensa/necrosis

The effects of the water extracts of Millettia reticulata Benth (WEMRB) and its active compound (protocatechuic acid [PCA]) on acute hepatic injury and inflammation in CCl(4)-induced Sprague-Dawley rats were investigated. Sprague-Dawley rats were orally treated with WEMRB or PCA for 28 consecutive

17-Methoxyl-7-hydroxy-benzene-furanchalcone (MHBFC), a monomer isolated from the root of Millettia pulchra (Benth.) Kurz var. Laxior (Dunn) Z. Wei (Papilionaceae), has been demonstrated to exhibit protective effects on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. However, the mechanisms for

BACKGROUND Yulangsan polysaccharide (YLSPS) is often used in popular folk medicine in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of China as a chief ingredient of Millettia pulchra, which is used as a hepatic protection, anti-aging and memory improving agent. OBJECTIVE This study was designed to

BACKGROUND Millettia pulchra Kurz var-laxior (Dunn) Z. Wei, a wild-growing plant of the family Fabaceae is known to possess multifarious medicinal properties. Yulangsan polysaccharide (YLSPS) is a chief ingredient of its root, which has been used in Chinese traditional medicine with a long history

The effect of 17-methoxyl-7-hydroxy-benzene-furanchalcone isolated from the roots of Millettia pulchra (Benth.) Kurz var. Laxior (Dunn) Z. Wei on rat myocardial ischemia has been investigated. An in vitro cardiocyte apoptosis model and an in vivo myocardial ischemia model were used to elucidate the

The plant Millettia pulchra was commonly used in folk medicine for the management of inflammation. However, there was no scientific rationale for these effects and the mechanism of action remained incompletely understood. The present study was designed to investigate the antiinflammatory and
