Palicourea crocea (Sw.) Roem. and Schult., “douradinha,” are used by treat inflammation (edema). Croceaine A (PC-1) was isolated from P. crocea (MEPC) leaves and studied for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, as well as concentrations of constituents and acute toxicity. The phenols and polyphenolics compounds and HPLC/DAD were determin...

The tumour microenvironment predominantly consists of macrophages with phenotypes ranging from pro-inflammatory (M1-like) to anti-inflammatory (M2-like). Trehalose-6,6′-dibehenate (TDB) displays moderate anti-tumour activity and stimulates M1-like macrophages via the macrophage inducible C-type lectin (Mincle) resulting in IL-1β production. In this...

This study evaluated the arthritogenic effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in a mouse model of periodontal disease. Periodontitis was induced in wild-type CD1 mice by nine LPS injections (10 or 50 ng) into the maxillary mucosa. Untreated mice or injected with LPS at the tail were used as controls. Two weeks after final inoculation, mice were sacrifi...

Umbelliferone (UMB) is a natural coumarin that has diverse biological activities. However, its potential to protect against liver fibrosis has not been reported yet. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of UMB against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis in rats. Rats received CCl4 and UMB for 8 weeks and samples were...

The most epidemic liver disorder non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterized by hepatic steatosis and inflammation with hepatocellular damage. Recently, it is predictable to be the extensive cause for liver transplantation. The absence of an approved therapeutic agent for NASH is the reason for investigating saroglitazar (SAR) which showe...

Paraquat (PQ) intoxication seriously endangers human beings’ health, however, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Here we found that PQ inhibits human bronchial 16HBE cell proliferation and promotes cell apoptosis, necrosis as well as ROS generation in a dose dependent manner. Of note, low-dose PQ (50 μM) induces cell autophagy, increases ...

Myocardial cell injury or cardiomyopathy is associated with excessive inflammatory response and apoptosis of cardiac myocytes during sepsis. MicroRNA-23b (miR-23b) is a multifunctional miRNA that is considered to regulate immunosuppression in sepsis. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of miR-23b on cardiomyopathy induced by sepsis and ...
