3,4-O-Isopropylidene shikimic acid
|
|
1. 3,4-Oxo- isopropylidene-shikimic acid has significant anti-inflammatory effect which may be related to inhibiting the production of prostaglandin E2 and protecting free radical against oxidation.
2. 3,4-Oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid has protective effects on experimental colitis induced by trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid in rats, probably due to an antioxidant action.
3. 3,4-Oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid has anti-thrombosis effect, it inhibits thrombosis by anti-platelet-aggregation.
4. 3,4-Oxo-isopropylidene shikimic acid relieves the brain edema of rats subjected to MCAT by improving the energy metabolism and Na +, K +-ATPase activity in rat brain tissue.
5. 3,4-Oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid can inhibit adhesion of polymorphonuclear leukocyte to TNF-alpha-induced endothelial cells in vitro.
6. 3,4-Oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid has analgesic and antioxidant activities, it exhibits moderate antioxidant activity by scavenging the superoxide radical and hydroxyl radical with IC50 values of 0.214 and 0.450 ug/mL, respectively.
7. 3,4-Oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid has exhibited ameliorative effect on cognitive impairment in experimental animal models of dementia, it can promote adipogenesis by up-regulating expressions of C/EBP β, PPAR γ, C/EBP α, aP2 and FAS, and also stimulate adipokines during adipocyte differentiation, suggests that stimulation of adipokines and cognitive enhancing effect of 3,4-oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid have some relationship. |

Isofraxidin
|
|
Isofraxidin has definite anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant, analgesic,and anti-inflammatory activities, it inhibits expression of MMP-7 and in vitro cell invasion at a non-toxic level through inhibiting ERK1/2 phosphorylation in hepatoma cell lines.Isofraxidin is one possible radio-protector, it can protect leukemia cells from radiation-induced apoptosis via ROS/mitochondria pathway in a p53-independent manner. |

Allomatrine
|
|
Allomatrine can inhibit proliferation and invasion in vitro of human lung cancer A549 cell line by inducing ROS production,promoting apoptosis, arresting cell cycle, inhibiting ubiquitin proteasome and regulating tumor related gene expression. (+)-Allomatrine and (+)-matrine when given i.c.v. may stimulate the descending dynorphinergic neuron, resulting in the stimulation of KORs in the spinal cord, and this phenomenon in turn produces the antinociception in mice. |

Chelidonine
|
|
Chelidonine is a promising model compound for overcoming MDR and for enhancing cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutics, especially against leukaemia cells, its efficacy needs to be confirmed in animal models. Chelidonine may be a potential therapeutic agent against metastasis of invasive human cancer cells, exhibits anti‑migratory and anti‑invasive effects in MDA‑MB‑231 cells, by suppressing COL‑I‑induced integrin signaling, through inhibiting the formation of the IPP complex and subsequent down‑regulation of IPP downstream signaling molecules, such as Akt and ERK1/2. |
