Saikosaponin D (SSD) and paeoniflorin (PF) are the major active constituents of Bupleuri Radix and Paeonia lactiflora Pall, respectively, and have been widely used in China to treat liver and other diseases for many centuries. We explored the binding of SSD/PF to human serum albumin (HSA) by using

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes and other age-related diseases. AGE inhibitors or breakers, such as aminoguanidine and alagebrium, have been proposed as therapeutic agents for AGE-related disorders. Jakyakgamcho-tang (JGT) is a well-known

Experimental model of acute liver damage with D-galactosamine was made. Thereafter, Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) and Paeonia lactiflora (PL) were given to the rats. Survival rate of rats and liver coefficient (liver weight/body weight) were observed. Changes of ALT and bilirubin in serum were detected.

The root of Paeonia lactiflora and the stem of Sinomenium acutum are two herbs widely used in Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of inflammatory and arthritic diseases. Studies on the interaction of the active constituents of these herbs, i.e., paeoniflorin and sinomenine, in pharmacokinetic

OBJECTIVE Total glucosides of paeony (TGP), an active compound extracted from dried roots of Paeonia lactiflora Pall, have anti-inflammatory effects. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of TGP for treating diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. METHODS An

Total glucosides of paeony (TGP) is the major active constituent of Paeonia lactiflora Pall., which has shown renoprotection in experimental diabetic nephropathy. Activation of Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) is an important mechanism by which hyperglycemia

Total glucosides of paeony (TGP), extracted from the traditional Chinese herb root of Paeonia lactiflora pall, have been shown to have a therapeutic role in experimental diabetic nephropathy including albuminuria. Recent investigation has identified nephrin, a podocyte-specific transmembrane

Total glucosides of paeony (TGP), extracted from the root of Paeonia lactiflora pall, has been shown to have ant-inflammatory and antioxidative actions. The aims of this study were to elucidate the renoprotective effect of TGP and its mechanism in experimental diabetes. Streptozotocin-induced

TGP, extracted from the traditional Chinese herb root of Paeonia lactiflora pall, has been shown to have therapeutic effect in experimental diabetic nephropathy. However, its mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, the effects of TGP on oxidative stress were investigated in the kidney of
