In this study, 23 oleanane-type triterpenoid saponins were isolated from a methanol extract of the roots of Pulsatilla koreana. The NF-κB inhibitory activity of the isolated compounds was measured in TNFα-treated HepG2 cells using a luciferase reporter system. Compounds 19-23 inhibited
Pulsatilla chinensis is commonly used for the treatment of cancers and inflammatory disorders in China. Our recent studies showed that anemoside B4, its major ingredient, possessed notable antioxidant and protected cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in vivo. Furthermore, we found Inflammation is a common finding in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The phytotherapeutic agent eviprostat is a popular treatment for BPH in Japan and Germany. This agent consists of five components; four are extracted from Chimaphila umbellata, Populus tremula, Pulsatilla pratensis and Equisetum
To investigate the therapeutic effect of a Korean herbal medicine Pulsatilla koreana as an anti-septic agent, anti-inflammatory effects of the herbal medicine were determined in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-exposed rats. Treatment with a methanol extract from Pulsatilla koreana significantly inhibited
Herbal massage is commonly used for cosmetic and antirheumatic purposes in the Republic of Korea. Cutaneous burns can complicate herbal massages, but this is a very rare occurrence. Pulsatilla koreana, the Korean pasque flower, is a species of the genus Pulsatilla from the Ranunculaceae family. It
Anemonin (the dilactone of cyclobutane-1, 2-diol-1, 2-diacrylic acid) was isolated from the root of Pulsatilla chinensis Regel. Pulsatilla chinensis Regel has been used in the treatment of enteritis in China for years. However, only little was known about the mechanism underlying its
Cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic agent commonly used in the treatment of a wide variety of malignancies. However, its clinical usage is severely limited by its serious side effects, especially nephrotoxicity. Anemoside B4, is a major saponins, rich in root of Pulsatilla Background: Pneumonia refers to the inflammation of the terminal airway, alveoli and pulmonary interstitium, which can be caused by pathogenic microorganisms, physical and chemical factors, immune damage, and drugs. Anemoside B4, the
Pulsatilla Decoction (Bai Tou Weng Tang) has been used medically in China for thousands of years for the treatment of diseases caused by bacteria. In recent decades, Pulsatilla Decoction is becoming a well-known formula prescription used for the treatment of ulcerative colitis in traditional Chinese
Plants or herb extracts have emerged as a novel approach to controling various diseases, including cancers. Among them, Pulsatilla koreana extract (PKE) has been widely used as an anti-inflammatory agent and for treating dysentery in traditional Korean and Chinese medicine. However, the effect of
In the present study, a new oleanane-type triterpenoid saponin, pulsatilloside F (1), along with 21 known compounds (2-22), were isolated from the root of Pulsatilla koreana. Their chemical structures were elucidated by mass, (1)H-, (13)C-NMR, correlation spectroscopy (COSY), heteronuclear multiple
BACKGROUND
Triterpenoid saponins are the major bioactive constituents of Pulsatilla chinensis, playing an important role in various biological activities such as anti-tumour, cognition-enhancing, anti-biosis, anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic and immunological adjuvant.
OBJECTIVE
To establish a
Anemoside B4 (B4) is a compound extracted from Pulsatilla chinensis(P. chinensis). Pharmacological studies have proved that it has certain anti-inflammatory activity. Acute ulcerative colitis (ulcerative colitis) is a non-specific inflammatory disease whose pathogenesis is not completely known, and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate molecular mechanisms underlying in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease by Pulsatilla decoction.
METHODS
Wistar male rats were randomly divided into control group, model group, model + positive control group (mesalazine), traditional Chinese medicine treatment group,
Cisplatin (cis-Dichlorodiammine platinum, CP), as the first-line chemotherapy drug of choice for many cancers such as urogenital system tumors and digestive tract tumors, also causes toxicity and side effects to the kidney. Previous studies have shown that Pulsatilla chinensis has significant
