Antifibrotic effect of twelve diterpenes (1-12) from the 90% methanolic fraction of Biota orientalis leaves was evaluated employing HSC-T6 cells by assessing cell proliferation and morphological change. Among these diterpenes, totarol (8) and isopimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (9) dramatically

We investigated the effect of a new PAF antagonist pinusolide, isolated from the leaves of Biota orientalis, on PAF-induced [3H]serotinin release from rabbit platelets, hypotension and vascular permeability. Pinusolide (IC50, about 5 x 10(-6) M) inhibited specifically [3H]serotinin release from

Essential oils are volatile compounds extracted from various plants by distillation, hydrodiffusion or compression. In recent years, the use of essential oils has gained popularity. Many pharmaceutical, cosmetic, sanitary, food industry and agriculture studies have revealed that essential oils exert

OBJECTIVE We conducted a genome wide gene expression analysis to explore the biological aspects of 15-methoxypinusolidic acid (15-MPA) isolated from Biota orientalis and tried to confirm the suitability of 15-MPA as a therapeutic candidate for CNS injuries focusing on microglia. METHODS Murine
