The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of Sasa veitchii leaf extract (SE) on features of obesity induced by a high-fat diet (HFD), such as hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and inflammatory response. Four-week-old male ddY mice were freely fed HFD or control normal diet for
BACKGROUND
The current study aimed to investigate the hepatoprotective effects of Sasa veitchii extract (SE) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis in mice.
METHODS
Male C57BL/6J mice were intraperitoneally injected with CCl4 dissolved in olive oil (1 g/kg) twice per week for 8 weeks.
BACKGROUND
We have previously reported that azulene-related compounds, and alkaline extract of Sasa senanensis Rehder potently inhibited nitric oxide (NO) production by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated mouse macrophages. We investigated here whether they can inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine
Previous studies have shown anti-inflammatory potential of alkaline extract of the leaves of Sasa senanensis Rehder (SE). The aim of the present study was to clarity the molecular entity of SE, using various fractionation methods. SE inhibited the production of nitric oxide (NO), but not tumour
Obesity is considered a mild inflammatory state, and the secretion of inflammation-related cytokines rises as adipose tissue expands. Inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interlukin 6 (IL-6) and monocyte-chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), are modulated by
OBJECTIVE
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, involves chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Previously, Sasa quelpaertensis leaves have been shown to mediate anti-inflammation and anti-cancer effects, although it remains unclear whether
Sasa quelpaertensis leaves exert anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic effects, although it remains unclear whether these leaves can suppress inflammation-related intestinal diseases. This study hypothesized that Sasa quelpaertensis leaf extract (SQE) exerts a protective effect against inflammation
BACKGROUND
Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai is an edible dwarf bamboo cultivated mainly in Jeju Island, South Korea and its leaf displays various health-promoting properties including antioxidant scavenging.
OBJECTIVE
In this study, we aimed at elucidating its hepatoprotective effect against
