One of the CC chemokines, cutaneous T cell-attracting chemokine (CTACK/CCL27), is a skin-specific CC chemokine that is produced constitutively by keratinocytes and is highly up-regulated in inflammatory skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis and contact dermatitis. (2S)-2′-Methoxykurarinone (MOK)

Oxymatrine (OMT), isolated from Sophora flavescens or Sophora alopecuroides, possesses various pharmacological and biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and anti-diabetic properties. Microglia cells, the resident immune cells in the central nervous system (CNS), play a

We recently reported the inhibitory effect of an oral administration of a Sophora flavescens Aiton methanol extract on the development of atopic dermatitis in the NC/Nga model mice. Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 has recently emerged as an important cytoprotective enzyme against oxidative stress and

Sophoraflavanone G (SG), a prenylated flavonoid from Sophora alopecuroides, has been reported to have many pharmacological activities including anti-inflammation. However, the molecular mechanisms of its anti-inflammatory activity remain largely unclear. In this study we investigated the effects and

BACKGROUND The roots of Sophora flavescens (Leguminosae) have been used in East Asian countries as an herbal medicine and a food ingredient for thousands of years. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of S. flavescens fermentation on endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) in

Sophoraflavanone G (SG; 5,7,D, 2',4'-tetrahydroxy-8-lavandulylflavanone) has been isolated from Sophora flavescens and found to be effective against bacteria and to decrease cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression in RAW 264.7 macrophage. However, the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of SG are not well

Oxymatrine (OMT) is the quinolizidine alkaloid extracted from the Chinese herb Sophora flavescens Ait. that has many pharmacological effects and is used for the treatment of some inflammatory diseases. In this study, RAW264.7 cells and THP-1 differentiated macrophages were pretreated with various

Oxymatrine is the primary pharmacological component of Sophora flavescens Ait. In the present study, we investigated the protective effect of oxymatrine against Coxsackievirus B3-induced myocarditis in mice. Coxsackievirus B3-infected HeLa cells were treated with oxymatrine and the viral titer, as

OBJECTIVE Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is a common and serious clinical condition. The anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties of oxymatrine, the extract from a traditional Chinese herb, Sophora flavescens Ait, have been shown to protect the liver from I/R injury and attenuate

Oxymatrine (OMT), a monosomic alkaloid extracted from the Chinese herb, Sophora flavescens Ait, has long been used as a traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential anti‑inflammatory effect of OMT, and its

Oxymatrine (OM) is an alkaloid extracted from the Chinese herb Sophora flavescens Ait. with a variety of pharmacological activities. The aim of this study was to investigate the preventive effects of OM on bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis (PF) and to further explore the underlying

Viral myocarditis affects about 5% to 20% of the population. So far, there are not many effective antiviral treatments available. QiHong, the combination of the extracts from Astragali (Huangqi), Rhadiola rosea (Hongjingtian), and Sophora flavescens (Kushen), was developed based on laboratory

BACKGROUND The dried root of Sophora flavescens Aiton (Sophorae radix, SR) has long been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of fever and swelling in eastern countries. METHODS The present study investigated the anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory effects of SR using

Oxysophoridine (OSR), a natural alkaloid derived from the traditional Chinese medicinal plant sophora alopecuroides, can perform a variety of pharmacological actions. The aim of the present study was to assess the cardioprotective effect of OSR against acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in rats. OSR
