Nardostachys jatamansi (NJ) has been used in the treatment of inflammatory diseases. However, it is not clear how NJ produces anti-inflammatory effects. In the present study, using an experimental model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxin shock, the protective effects and mechanisms of
We previously reported that Nardostachys jatamansi (NJ) exhibits anti-inflammatory activity against lipopolysaccharide (LPS). However, the active compound in NJ is unknown. Therefore, here, we examined the effects of desoxo-narchinol-A (DN) isolated from NJ against LPS-induced inflammation. To
OBJECTIVE
The present study evaluated the effect of ethanolic extract of Nardostachys jatamansi roots (NJet) on MYCN mediated regulation of expression of MDM2 and p53 proteins in neuroblastoma cell lines, IMR-32 and SK-N-MC.
METHODS
The effect of NJet on cell viability was determined by MTT; and on
BACKGROUND
Radiation is increasingly being used for medical purposes and it is an established weapon in the diagnosis and the therapy of cancer. An exposure to 1-2 Gys causes the NVD (Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea) syndrome, whereas an exposure to 2-6 Gys causes the haematopoietic syndrome. The aim of
Glioblastoma has been reckoned as the prime cause of death due to brain tumours, being the most invasive and lethal. Available treatment options, i.e. surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and targeted therapies are not effective in improving prognosis, so an alternate therapy is insistent. Plant
BACKGROUND
Nardostachys jatamansi DC is a Himalayan medicinal herb that has been described in various traditional systems of medicine for its use in cancer. In view of its traditional claims, and chemical constituents, antioxidant and anticancer activities were evaluated in breast
Nardostachys jatamansi (D. Don) DC., 'Spikenard' or 'Jatamansi', a highly valued, aromatic herb from alpine Himalayas has a long history of use as ethnomedicine and dietary supplements in Ayurveda, Unani and Chinese system of medicine since Vedic ages (1000-800 BC). In Ayurveda and Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a severe inflammatory condition of the pancreas, with no specific treatment available. We have previously reported that Nardostachys jatamansi (NJ) ameliorates cerulein-induced AP. However, the specific compound responsible for this inhibitory effect has not been
Nardostachys chinensis Batalin (Valerianaceae) has been widely used in different traditional systems of medicine, including Islamic, Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Korean folk medicine. It has been used in traditional medicine as a tranquilizer, hepatotonic, cardiotonic, diuretic, and analgesic.
Two new nardosinone-type sesquiterpenoids, namely kanshone J (1) and kanshone K (2) along with seven known terpenoids (3-9) were isolated from the rhizomes and roots of Nardostachys jatamansi DC (Valerianaceae). The structures of these compounds were determined mainly by analysis of 1D-, 2D-NMR and
Four nardosinone-type sesquiterpenes, nardosinone, isonardosinone, kanshone E, and kanshone B, were isolated from the hexane fraction of Nardostachys jatamansi (Valerianaceae) methanol extract. The structures of these compounds were mainly established by analyzing the data obtained from nuclear
Nardostachys jatamansi contains various types of sesquiterpenoids that may play an important role in the potency of plant's anti-inflammatory effects, depending on their structure. In this study, five new sesquiterpenoids, namely kanshone L (1), kanshone M (2), 7-methoxydesoxo-narchinol (3),
Phytochemical investigation of CHCl(3):MeOH (1:1) extract from the rhizomes of Nardostachys jatamansi led to the isolation of two new sesquiterpenoids (5 and 6), along with six known compounds (1-4, 7, and 8). The structures of two new compounds were established using IR, MS, 1D, and 2D NMR
The roots and rhizomes of Nardostachys chinensis have neuroprotection and cardiovascular protection effects. However, the specific mechanism of N. chinensis is not yet clear. Nardochinoid C (DC) is a new compound with new skeleton isolated from N. chinensis and this study for the first time explored
