BACKGROUND The root of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn (PPD) is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of asthma. Its major constituents, coumarins, were presumed to be responsible for its efficacy. OBJECTIVE The potential of coumarins from PPD (CPPD) as anti-asthma agent was

Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease characterized by movement, psychiatric, and cognitive disorders. Previous research suggests that Praeruptorin C (Pra-C), an effective component in the root of Peucedanum praeruptorum dunn, a traditional Chinese medicine, may

The root of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn is a traditional Chinese medicine commonly used to treat asthma in China. (±)-praeruptorin A (PA) is the most abundant constituent of P. praeruptorum Dunn, the effects of which on asthma were investigated using a murine model of allergic airway disease.

Methylglyoxal (MGO) is a highly reactive metabolite of glucose. Elevated levels of MGO induce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cause cell death in endothelial cells. Vascular endothelial cell damage by ROS has been implicated in the progression of diabetic vascular complications,

Peucedanum japonicum Thunb is a medicinal plant belonging to the family Umbelliferae. This study evaluated the anti-diabetic and anti-obesity effects of cis-3',4'-diisovalerylkhellactone (cDIVK) isolated from Peucedanum japonicum Thunb leaves. cDIVK (30 and 50μM) effectively inhibited adipocyte

UNASSIGNED Peucedani Radix (PR), the root of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn (PPD) or Peucedanum decursivum (Miq.) Maxim. (PDM), has long been used in Korea to eliminate sputum, relieve cough, and reduce bronchus contraction. Furthermore, these therapeutic strategies are recognized as general and

Peucedanum japonicum Thunberg is an herbal medicine used to treat neuralgia, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory-related diseases. However, its effects on osteoarthritis (OA) and its regulatory mechanisms have not been investigated by network analysis. Here, we investigated the pharmacological

Being a highly prevalent disease, osteoporosis causes metabolism defects. Low bone density, compromised bone strength, and an increased danger of fragility fracture are its main characteristics. Natural compounds have been considered as potential alternative therapeutic agents for treating

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine phenolic acid composition and anti-parasitic effects of Peucedanum caucasicum, P. palimbioides, P. longibracteolatum and P. chryseum on Entamoeba histolytica. METHODS Methanol extracts of the plant species were prepared by soxhlet extraction.

The growing interest in medicinal plants for the identification of new bioactive compounds and the formulation of new nutraceuticals and drugs prompted us to develop a powerful experimental approach allowing the detailed metabolic profiling of complex plant extracts, the identification of ligands of

BACKGROUND The genus Peucedanum (Apiaceae) comprising more than 120 species is widely distributed in Europe, Asia and Africa. The ethnopharmacologial history of this genus indicated that some extracts of aerial and underground parts of several Peucedanum species have been used in folk medicine for

Praeruptorins belonging to the angular-type pyranocoumarins are bioactive constituents that have been isolated from some Peucedanum species such as P. praeruptorum, which is used in traditional Chinese medicine for treatment of cold, cough, upper respiratory infections, and so forth. Many reports
