Inflammation may negatively impact health, particularly that of the central nervous system. Phenolic compounds are bioactive molecules present in fruits and vegetables with potential anti-inflammatory effects. The purpose of the present work is to review the immunomodulatory bioactivities of phenolic compounds in the periphery and in the central ne...

In this study, Colla corii asini (CCA) was fractionated into three fractions with different molecular weights using ultracentrifugation equipment. Components with a molecular weight of >10 kDa in F1 accounted for 81.90%, whereas that in F2 and F3 was 15.63% and 0.94%, respectively. The immunomodulatory activity of CCA fractions was investigated usi...
