platycodon grandiflorus/抗真菌薬

Endophytic Bacillus sp. CY22 was previously isolated from the root interior of the balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum) (Cho et al., Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem., 66, 1270-1275 (2002)). Three-month-old balloon flower seedlings were inoculated with 10(7) cfu/ml of strain CY22R3, a

A bacterial strain, designated CY22, was isolated from the interior of balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum) root in the Republic of Korea. The isolate coproduced an iturin-like antifungal compound and a surfactin-like potent biosurfactant. Analysis of the 16S-rDNA of strain CY22 showed that the

OBJECTIVE To investigate the therapeutic effect of crude extract from Platycodon grandiflorum (PG) roots on atopic dermatitis (AD)-like skin lesions in NC/Nga mice. METHODS To develop atopic dermatitis-like lesions, 200 μl of 0.3% 1-chloro-2, 4-dinitro benzene (DNCB) in acetone/olive oil (3:1) was

Balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum) is widely cultivated vegetable and used as a remedy for asthma in East Asia. Experiments were conducted to isolate endophytic bacteria from 1-, 3-, and 6-year-old balloon flower roots and to analyze the enzymatic, antifungal, and anti-human pathogenic

The root of Platycodon grandiflorus (PG), with hepatoprotective and anti-oxidation effects, has a long history of being used as food and herbal medicine in Asia. However, the mechanism of PG against non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is still not clear. The aim of this study was to

The root of Platycodon grandiflorus (Jacq.) A. DC. (P. grandiflorus), Platycodonis Radix, has been commonly applied to prevent and treat human diseases including bronchitis, asthma and excessive phlegm. Platycodin D (PD), one of the most important therapeutic components of P. grandiflorus, has been

BACKGROUND Platycodon grandiflorus (Jacq.) A. DC., the sole species in genus Platycodon A. DC. (Campanulaceae) has a long history of use as a traditional herbal medicine for the treatments of cough, phlegm, sore throat, lung abscess, chest pain, dysuria, and dysentery. As a legal medicine and

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of chlorpromazine combined with Platycodon grandiflorum on the striatal extracellular dopamine level in rats and to research the interaction and the mechanism of action after combining traditional Chinese medicine with western medicine. METHODS Twenty four rats were

Changkil (CK), the aqueous extract of the roots of Platycodon grandiflorum, has been used as a traditional oriental medicine for the treatment of chronic adult diseases. Although a saponin fraction derived from CK (CKS) has been suggested to have a variety of functional effects, its effect on bone

The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effects of saponins isolated from the root of Platycodi Radix (Changkil saponins: CKS) anti-allergic effects in mice and mast cells. Oral administration of CKS inhibited the dinitrophenyl (DNP)-IgE antibody-induced systemic PCA reaction in

Platycodon grandiflorum (PG) is widely used in Asia for its various beneficial effects. Although many studies were conducted to understand the molecular mechanisms of PG, it is still unclear how the combinations of multiple ingredients work together to exert its therapeutic effects. The aim of the

OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to suggest the role of WNT/β-catenin pathway in the anti-adipogenic effect of platycodin D, a natural compound found in Platycodon grandiflorum. METHODS Gene knockdown experiments using small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection were conducted to elucidate crucial

Bellflower root (Platycodon grandiflorum), which belongs to the Campanulaceae family, is a perennial grass that grows naturally in Korea, northeastern China, and Japan. Bellflower is widely consumed as both food and medicine owing to its high nutritional value and potential therapeutic effects.

Herbal medicines are increasingly being utilized to treat a wide variety of disease processes. Aqueous extract from the root of Platycodon grandiflorum A. DC (Campanulaceae), Changkil (CK), is reported to have antitumor and immunomodulatory activities; however, the mechanism underlying its

TAS2R14 is of great potential as a therapeutic target against asthma, and the discovery of TAS2R14 agonists can be very valuable for treating this disease. Herein, we developed a strategy using virtual screening and affinity screening based on a fabricated biosensor combined with UPLC-MS analysis to
