panax notoginseng/inflammation

Previous studies have reported on the anti-atherosclerotic effects of Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS). The aim of the present study was to explore the molecular mechanisms responsible for the anti-atherosclerotic effects of PNS and the inflammatory response. Thirty rats were randomly divided into

OBJECTIVE To study the anti-inflammatory effects of total saponins of Panax notoginseng (PnS). METHODS Rat air-pouch acute inflammatory model was established with s.c. carrageenan (Car, 25 mg.kg-1). The protein content in exudate was measured. Micro-acid titration assay and radioimmunoassay (RIA)

Objective To investigate the preventive effect of total saponins of Panax japonicus (SPJ) on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced intestinal injuries in mice. Methods NSAID-induced intestinal mucosal damaged models were established by intragastric administration of 5 mg/mL diclofenac

OBJECTIVE To observe the anti-inflammatory effect of total saponins of Panax japonicus on LPS-induced RAW264. 7 macrophages. METHODS The effect of total saponins of P. japonicus of different concentrations on RAW264. 7 cell viability was determined with the MTT method. The NO kit assay was adopted

Excessive activation of macrophages is implicated in various inflammation resulted injuries. Saponins from Panax japonicus (SPJ) have been shown to possess anti-inflammatory activities. However, whether Chikusetsusaponin V (CsV), the most abundant component of SPJ, can exert anti-inflammatory

Through the combination of various chromatographies, 11 new 20(S)-protopanaxadiol (PPD) type saponins, named as notoginsenosides NL-E₁ - NL-E₄ (1-4), NL-F₁ (5), NL-F₂ (6), NL-G₁ (7), NL-G₂ (8), NL-H₁ - NL-H₃

Notoginsenoside R1 (NG-R1), a unique and main active ingredient of Panax notoginseng, has been described to exhibit anti-inflammatory activity. However, its protective effects against oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL)-induced inflammatory injury in vascular endothelial cells have not been

Gypenoside IX (GP IX) is a pure compound isolated from Panax notoginseng. Gypenosides have been implicated to benefit the recovery of enormous neurological disorders. By suppressing the activation of astrocytes, gypenosides can improve the cognitive impairment. However, so far, little is known about

In this study, we have investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of trilinolein (TL) using a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated mouse macrophage (RAW264.7) and carrageenan (Carr)-induced mouse paw edema model. When RAW264.7 macrophages were treated with different concentrations of TL together with

OBJECTIVE Atherosclerosis is characterized by the progressive deposition of lipids and inflammatory process. We attempted to develop a chemically-induced hyperlipidemic mice model, using poloxamer-407 and evaluated the lipid lowering and anti-inflammatory effect of P. notoginseng compared with that

Inflammatory response is caused by exogenous and endogenous stimuli,resulting in a non-specific resistance reaction.After acute ischemic cerebral infarction,inflammatory factors gather and adhere in the ischemic area of leukocyte infiltration,and the released inflammatory factors causes the injury

Chronic metabolic inflammation in adipose tissue plays an important role in the development of obesity-associated diseases. Our previous study indicated that total saponins of Panax japonicus (SPJ) rhizoma and Chikusetsu saponin V, one main component of SPJ, could exert the anti-oxidative and

BACKGROUND Notoginsenoside R1 (NR) is a major dynamic constituent of Panax notoginseng found to possess anti-inflammatory activity against various inflammatory diseases. However, its protective effects against renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury have not been elucidated. In male Wistar rats, we

OBJECTIVE Inflammation is widely acknowledged to increase morbidity and mortality in myocardial infarction (MI), and the ideal therapeutic methods should be aimed at the inflammation reaction triggers. The aim was to evaluate the protective effect of saponins extracted from Panax japonicus (SPJ) on

The use of herbal therapy for inflammatory bowel disease is increasing worldwide. The aim of this study was to review the available literature on the efficacy of herbal therapy in experimental colitis. All relevant studies published in Medline and Embase up to June 2015 have been reviewed. The
