Abstract Chemical examination of the MeOH extract of the root of Taraxacum officinale, which exhibited inhibitory activity on the formation of leukotriene B4 from activated human neutrophils, has resulted in the isolation of 14-O-β-D-glucosyl-11,13-dihydro-taraxinic acid (1) and 14-O-β-D-glucosyl-taraxinic acid (2). The absolute stereostructure of 1 has been established by X-ray chrystallographic examination. 相似文献

Taraxacum officinale (L.) Weber, commonly known as Dandelion, has been widely used as a folkloric medicine for the treatment of liver and kidney disorders and some women diseases such as breast and uterus cancers. The main objective of the present study was to assess the efficiency of T. officinale leaf extract (TOE) in treating sodium dichromate hazards; it is a major environmental pollutant known for its wide toxic manifestations witch induced liver injury. TOE at a dose of 500 mg/kg b.w was orally administered once per day for 30 days consecutively, followed by 10 mg/kg b.w sodium dichromate was injected (intraperitoneal) for 10 days. Our results using Wistar rats showed that sodium dichromate significantly increased serum biochemical parameters. In the liver, it was found to induce an oxidative stress, evidenced from increase in lipid peroxidation and changes in antioxidative activities. In addition, histopathological observation revealed that sodium dichromate causes acute liver damage, necrosis of hepatocytes, as well as DNA fragmentation. Interestingly, animals that were pretreated with TOE, prior to sodium dichromate administration, showed a significant hepatoprotection, revealed by a significant reduction of sodium dichromate‐induced oxidative damage for all tested markers. These finding powerfully supports that TOE was effective in the protection against sodium dichromate‐induced hepatotoxicity and genotoxicity and, therefore, suggest a potential therapeutic use of this plant as an alternative medicine for patients with acute liver diseases. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Context: Taraxacum officinale Weber (Asteraceae), known as dandelion, is used for medicinal purposes due to its choleretic, diuretic, antitumor, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and hepatoprotective properties.Objective: We sought to investigate the protective activity of T. officinale fruit extract against sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-induced decreased cellular viability and increased lipid peroxidation in the cortex, hippocampus, and striatum of rats in vitro. To explain the mechanism of the extract’s antioxidant activity, its putative scavenger activities against NO˙, DPPH˙, OH˙, and H2O2 were determined.Methods: Slices of cortex, hippocampus, and striatum were treated with 50 μM SNP and T. officinale fruit ethanolic extract (1–20 µg/mL) to determine cellular viability by MTT reduction assay. Lipid peroxidation was measure in cortical, hippocampal and striatal slices incubates with SNP (5 µM) and T. officinale fruit extract (1–20 µg/mL). We also determined the scavenger activities of T. officinale fruit extract against NO˙, DPPH˙, OH˙, and H2O2, as well as its iron chelating capacity.Results: The extract (1, 5, 10, and 20 μg/mL) protected against SNP-induced decreases in cellular viability and increases in lipid peroxidation in the cortex, hippocampus, and striatum of rats. The extract had scavenger activity against DPPH˙ and NO˙ at low concentrations and was able to protect against H2O2 and Fe2+-induced deoxyribose oxidation.Conclusion: T. officinale fruit extract has antioxidant activity and protects brain slices against SNP-induced cellular death. Possible mechanisms of action include its scavenger activities against reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which are attributed to the presence of phenolic compounds in the extract. 相似文献

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale Wigg.) seed reproduction indices such as the total number of seeds, the number of normally developed seeds and underdeveloped seeds per anthodium, and seed weight are suggested to assess the level of environmental pollution (bioindication). However, the non-monotonic dose-response dependences (hormesis and paradoxical effects) of these indices are insufficiently explored upon exposure to pollution. We studied the dependence of some T. officinale seed reproduction indices on intensity of motor traffic pollution in wide range of values over 2 years of observation. In 2010, the increase in traffic intensity induced a monotonic increase in the total seed number and the number of normally developed seeds. Besides, motor traffic pollution decreased the number of undeveloped seeds and seed weight in comparison with the control. In 2011, for all studied T. officinale indices except seed weight, complicated non-monotonic dependences on traffic intensity were found that could be attributed to paradoxical effects. It is hypothesised that the significant differences in the studied dependencies in 2010–2011 were caused by changes in weather conditions because traffic intensity did not differ significantly between the two observation years. 相似文献

Two new flavonols japonicins, A (1) and B (2), along with nine known flavonoids were isolated from an antidepressant fraction, which was separated from the 70% alcohol extract of the flowers of Inula japonica Thumb. The structures of compounds 1 and 2 were determined as 3,3′,4′,5,9,10-hexahydroxy-12-methylchroman[2,3-h]flavone and 8-(1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethyl)-3,3′,4′,5,7-pentahydroxyflavone by the analyses of physical constants and spectral data. The special flavonoid structure having the substituent 1-phenylethyl at C-8 position was discovered for the first time. 相似文献

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS4B inhibitors have shown potent inhibition of HCV replication in vitro. To assess the effect of viral diversity on the susceptibility to NS4B inhibitors, genotype (GT)-specific GT1a and GT1b replicon shuttle vectors were designed and created for cloning HCV NS4B genes from clinical isolates. For the GT1b NS4B shuttle vector, the S2204I adaptive mutation was introduced in NS5A to improve replication due to the replacement of the K1846T adaptive mutation in NS4B with NS4B from the clinical isolates. In addition to the adaptive mutations, a newly identified Huh-7 cell line, Huh-7-1C, which is highly permissive for both GT1a and GT1b replication, was used to further enhance the replication levels. HCV NS4B gene from clinical isolates was amplified and inserted into the corresponding GT1a and GT1b modified lab strain chimeric replicons. GT1a and GT1b chimeric replicons expressing diverse NS4B genes from corresponding subtypes of clinical isolates replicated at highly efficient levels for phenotypic analysis. Due to natural variation in their amino acid residues in NS4B, these isolates displayed varying drug susceptibilities to an NS4B inhibitor. In mixed populations with wild-type, the sensitivity of resistance detection of NS4B resistant mutants H94R and V105M was between 20% and 80%. The chimeric shuttle vectors can be used to characterize the activity of antiviral drugs targeting NS4B from diverse natural clinical isolates and aid in the development of novel compounds against HCV NS4B. 相似文献

The effect of surangin B, an insecticidal natural product coumarin, on presynaptic release of endogenous amino acids was investigated using a purified synaptosomal fraction isolated from mouse brain. Surangin B stimulated the release of glutamic acid (GLU), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), serine, alanine and the aminosulfonic acid taurine from synaptosomes at micromolar concentrations. In all cases, these responses were reduced by removing calcium from the saline and surangin B-evoked release of GLU, GABA, aspartic acid (ASP) and alanine was significantly inhibited by the sodium channel blocker tetrodotoxin. Rotenone (a complex I inhibitor) and carbonyl cyanide chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP; an uncoupler), were more potent releasers of amino acids from synaptosomes than surangin B, however, carboxin (a complex II-selective inhibitor), was extremely weak to ineffective in this regard. The stimulatory effect of surangin B and complex III-selective inhibitors on release of GLU, GABA, ASP and alanine by synaptosomes was significantly reduced by N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine, suggesting that blockade of complex III in intraterminal mitochondria is an important effect of this coumarin. Our results demonstrate that surangin B, in common with CCCP and inhibitors of complex I and III, cause release of both neurotransmitter and non-neurotransmitter amino acids from nerve endings in vitro. However, in contrast to most classical agents which interfere selectively with mitochondrial function, the release of endogenous amino acids from synaptosomes by surangin B also involves a moderate extracellular calcium ion-dependent component and relies partially on sodium ion entry into the nerve ending. 相似文献
