Small scale rat hepatocyte primary culture with applications for screening hepatoprotective substances. (1/58)
Isolated hepatocytes are known to maintain their physiological functions for over a week when cultured on Matrigel, artificially reconstituted from basement membrane components. Although this culture technique has been frequently used in research on hepatocyte functions, there has been a limitation on its application for small scale experiments due to some technical problems. By using micro-culture plates with 96 round-bottom wells, we succeeded in coating the wells uniformly with Matrigel. When the cultured hepatocytes were treated with either 10 mM, 15 mM, or 20 mM of acetaminophen or 1 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM of D-galactosamine, the viability of the hepatocytes became 91.1%, 75.3%, 64.7%, and 79.0%, 43.8%, 26.2% of the non-treated control at 48 hours, respectively. Fractionated extracts of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. and Schisandra chinensis Baillon inhibited the action of acetaminophen or D-galactosamine in this model. From these results, we concluded that the microculture system presented here is capable of maintaining the in vivo characteristics of hepatocytes and is suitable for the screening of hepatoprotective substances. (+info)Micranoic acids A and B: two new octanortriterpenoids from Schisandra micrantha. (2/58)
Two novel octanortriterpenoids, micranoic acids A (1) and B (2), along with three known compounds, kadsuric acid (3), 3beta-hydroxy-lanost-9(11),24(25)-dien-26-oic acid (4) and schizandronic acid (5), were isolated from the leaves and stems of Schisandra micrantha. The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis. Micranoic acids A and B represent a new group of triterpenes in which the entire C-17 side chain has lost. This is the first report of octanortriterpenoids isolated from the family Schisandraceae. (+info)The anti-HBsAg (human type B hepatitis, surface antigen) and anti-HBeAg (human type B hepatitis, e antigen) C18 dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans from Kadsura matsudai and Schizandra arisanensis. (3/58)
The C(18) dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans including three novel schizanrin F (1), G (2), H (3), along with the known kadsurarin (4), were isolated from Kadsura matsudai. A new C(19) homolignan named schiarisanrin E (5), together with the known C(18) lignans, gomisin B (6), G (7) and (+)-gomisin K(3) (8) were obtained from Schizandra arisanensis. Gomisin B, G and (+)-gomisin K(3) showed moderate to strong activity for antihepatitis in anti-HBsAg (human type B hepatitis, surface antigen) and/or anti-HBeAg (human type B hepatitis, e antigen) tests. The structural elucidations of new compounds 1-3 and 5 were based on two-dimensional (2D) NMR techniques including COSY, HMQC, HMBC, NOESY and CD spectra. Preliminary structure-activity relationship studies for these isolated lignans are also discussed. (+info)Extracts from Schizandra chinensis fruit activate estrogen receptors: a possible clue to its effects on nitric oxide-mediated vasorelaxation. (4/58)
Schizandra chinensis fruit has long been used for the treatment of cardiovascular symptoms associated especially with menopausal symptoms in Korea. To provide a scientific rationale for such uses, we have investigated the vasorelaxant effects of Schizandra chinensis fruit on the vasomotor tone of the rat thoracic aorta in an organ bath. The crude extracts of Schizandra chinensis fruit (SC-Ex) elicited a transient relaxing response in the endothelium-intact rat aorta contracted with norepinephrine. This relaxant effect was abolished by removal of the endothelium, and also by pretreatment with nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. We then examined whether this vasodilatory effect occurs through estrogen receptor by reporter assays. SC-Ex activated the estrogen-responsive luciferase gene in COS cells transiently transfected with estrogen receptor and reporter plasmids. The activation was maintained in the butanol-soluble fraction and further increased in the successively fractionated C(18) cartridge-adsorbed fraction (SC-ADF). Reporter gene activation by SC-ADF was inhibited by the specific estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182,780, indicating that the effect is estrogen receptor dependent. However, SC-ADF failed to activate the androgen receptor in COS cells transfected with the corresponding receptor and reporter plasmids. These data show that extracts of Schizandra chinensis fruit act as a weak phytoestrogen. (+info)Identification and characterization of potent CYP3A4 inhibitors in Schisandra fruit extract. (5/58)
Schisandra fruit, a Schisandraceae family herb, is used as a component in Kampo medicines (developed from Chinese medicines, but established in Japan). It can act as a sedative and antitussive, improve hepatic function, and give a general tonic effect. An extract of Schisandra fruit has been shown with a potent inhibitory effect on human liver microsomal erythromycin N-demethylation activity mediated by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). The present study was conducted to identify Schisandra fruit components having inhibitory effects on CYP3A4 by surveying the effect on human liver microsomal erythromycin N-demethylation activity. Known components of Schisandra fruit, gomisins B, C, G, and N and gamma-shizandrin, showed inhibitory effects on N-demethylation activity. Among these components, gomisin C displayed the most potent and competitive inhibitory effect, with a Ki value of 0.049 microM. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of gomisin C was stronger than that of ketoconazole (Ki = 0.070 microM), a known potent CYP3A4 inhibitor. Gomisin C, however, inhibited CYP1A2-, CYP2C9-, CYP2C19-, and CYP2D6-dependent activities only to a limited extent (IC50 values >10 microM). Moreover, gomisin C inactivated human liver microsomal erythromycin N-demethylation activity in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The inactivation kinetic parameters k(inact) and K(I) were 0.092 min(-1) and 0.399 microM, respectively. The human liver microsomal erythromycin N-demethylation activity inactivated by gomisin C did not recover on dialysis of the microsomes. Spectral scanning of CYP3A4 with gomisin C yielded an absorbance at 455 nm, suggesting that gomisin C inactivated the cytochrome P450 via the formation of a metabolite intermediate complex. This pattern is consistent with the metabolism of the methylenedioxy substituent in gomisin C. These results indicate that gomisin C is a mechanism-based inhibitor that not only competitively inhibits but irreversibly inactivates CYP3A4. (+info)Investigation on the origin of 5-HMF in Shengmaiyin decoction by RP-HPLC method. (6/58)
The origin of 5-HMF (5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde) in a Shengmaiyin decoction was investigated by the RP-HPLC method below. A C(18) column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, i.d. 5 microm) with a column temperature of 25 degrees C was used. The mobile phase was a mixture of ultra-pure water-acetonitrile (95:5, V/V) and the flow rate was 1.0 ml/min. The detection wavelength was 280 nm. The injection volume was 1 microl and the running time was about 20 min. The addition of Schisandra was regulated to assess the contribution of an acid environment to the production of 5-HMF. In order to confirm the role of saccharides in the production of 5-HMF, different amount of fructose was used. The 5-HMF level in decoctions of processed and unprocessed Schisandra was investigated in order to determine the origin of 5-HMF. The results showed that 5-HMF was derived mainly from the decoction of Schisandra only and not the mixed decoction of Ophionpogon and Schisandra. The appearance of 5-HMF is not simply the result of the decomposition of saccharides under the acid environment created by Schisandra, but the processing procedure plays an important role in the production of 5-HMF. (+info)Traditional Chinese medicines Wu Wei Zi (Schisandra chinensis Baill) and Gan Cao (Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch) activate pregnane X receptor and increase warfarin clearance in rats. (7/58)
The traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) are essential components of alternative medicines. Many TCMs are known to alter the expression of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. The molecular mechanism by which TCMs and/or their constituents regulate enzyme and transporter expression, however, has remained largely unknown. In this report, we show that two TCMs, Wu Wei Zi (Schisandra chinensis Baill) and Gan Cao (Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch), and their selected constituents activate the xenobiotic orphan nuclear receptor pregnane X receptor (PXR). Treatment with TCM extracts and the Schisandrol and Schisandrin constituents of Wu Wei Zi induced the expression of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters in reporter gene assays and in primary hepatocyte cultures. The affected enzymes and transporters include CYP3A and 2C isozymes and the multidrug resistance-associated protein 2. In transient transfection and reporter gene assays, the Schisandrin constituents of Wu Wei Zi had an estimated EC50 of 2 and 1.25 microM on hPXR and mPXR, respectively. Interestingly, mutations that were intended to alter the pore of the ligand-binding cavity of PXR had species-specific effects on the activities of the individual Schisandrols and Schisandrins. In rats, the administration of Wu Wei Zi and Gan Cao increased the metabolism of the coadministered warfarin, reinforcing concerns involving the safe use of herbal medicines and other nutraceuticals to avoid PXR-mediated drug-drug interactions. Meanwhile, the activation of PXR and induction of detoxifying enzymes provide a molecular mechanism for the hepatoprotective effects of certain TCMs. (+info)A new triterpene and dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans from Schisandra propinqua (WALL.) BAILL. (8/58)
A new triterpene and two new natural dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans were isolated from the stems of Schisandra propinqua. In addition, three known lignans, octadecanoic acid, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl ester and beta-sitosterol were isolated. The structures of the new triterpene and new natural products were elucidated base on spectral analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR experiments. The isolates were tested for their cytotoxic effects against several tumor cell lines by MTT assay. (+info)Schisandra is not typically defined in the context of medicine as it refers to a type of plant, rather than a specific medical condition or treatment. Schisandra is a genus of plants that includes several species commonly known as "schisandra" or "schizandra." The most well-known species is Schisandra chinensis, also known as Wu Wei Zi in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Schisandra chinensis fruits, also called "magnolia vine berries," have been used in traditional medicine systems, including Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda, for centuries. In TCM, schisandra is often referred to as a "five-flavor fruit" because its taste is said to incorporate all five flavors recognized in TCM: sour, bitter, sweet, pungent, and salty.
Schisandra fruits contain various bioactive compounds, including lignans, which have been studied for their potential health benefits. Some research suggests that schisandra extracts may possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective (liver-protecting), and adaptogenic properties. However, more rigorous scientific studies are needed to confirm these findings and establish recommended dosages and safety guidelines for human consumption.
Cyclooctanes are a class of organic compounds that contain a cyclic octane structure, which is an eight-carbon ring. These molecules can exist in various conformations, including "crowded" or "eclipsed" conformations, where the carbon-hydrogen bonds are arranged in a way that leads to steric strain. This strain makes cyclooctanes less stable than other cycloalkanes, such as cyclohexane. The properties and behavior of cyclooctanes can be studied and applied in fields like chemistry, biochemistry, and materials science.
Lignans are a type of plant compound that have antioxidant and estrogen properties. They are found in various plants such as seeds, grains, fruits, and vegetables. Once consumed, some lignans can be converted by intestinal bacteria into enterolactone and enterodiol, which can have weak estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects in the body. These compounds have been studied for their potential health benefits, including reducing the risk of cancer and heart disease. However, more research is needed to fully understand their effects and potential health benefits.
Formaldehyde is not a medication or a term commonly used in human medicine. It is a chemical compound with the formula CH2O, which is commonly used in industry for various purposes such as a preservative, disinfectant, and embalming agent. Formaldehyde is also found naturally in the environment and is produced in small amounts by certain animals, plants, and humans.
Exposure to formaldehyde can cause irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin, and prolonged exposure has been linked to cancer, particularly nasopharyngeal cancer and leukemia. Therefore, it is important to limit exposure to this chemical and use appropriate protective equipment when handling it.
Medical definitions typically focus on the relevance of a term to medicine or healthcare, so here's a medical perspective on polycyclic compounds:
Polycyclic compounds are organic substances that contain two or more chemical rings in their structure. While not all polycyclic compounds are relevant to medicine, some can have significant medical implications. For instance, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a type of polycyclic compound that can be found in tobacco smoke and certain types of air pollution. PAHs have been linked to an increased risk of cancer, particularly lung cancer, due to their ability to damage DNA.
Another example is the class of drugs called steroids, which include hormones like cortisol and sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen. These compounds are polycyclic because they contain several interconnected rings in their structure. Steroid medications are used to treat a variety of medical conditions, including inflammation, asthma, and Addison's disease.
In summary, while not all polycyclic compounds are relevant to medicine, some can have important medical implications, either as harmful environmental pollutants or as useful therapeutic agents.
Herb-drug interactions (HDIs) refer to the pharmacological or clinical consequences that occur when a patient takes a herbal product concurrently with a prescribed medication. These interactions can result in various outcomes, such as decreased, increased, or altered drug effects due to changes in the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the drug.
Herbs may contain various bioactive compounds that can interact with drugs and affect their pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics. For example, some herbs may induce or inhibit drug-metabolizing enzymes, such as cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes, leading to altered drug metabolism and potentially increased or decreased drug concentrations in the body.
Similarly, herbs can also affect drug transporters, such as P-glycoprotein, which can further alter drug absorption, distribution, and excretion. Moreover, some herbs may have pharmacodynamic interactions with drugs, leading to additive or synergistic effects, or antagonism of the drug's therapeutic action.
Therefore, healthcare providers should be aware of potential HDIs when prescribing medications to patients who use herbal products and consider monitoring their patients' medication responses closely. Patients should also be advised to inform their healthcare providers about any herbal products they are taking, including dosage and frequency of use.
'Glycyrrhiza uralensis', also known as Chinese licorice, is a plant species native to Asia. In a medical context, it often refers to the root of this plant, which contains various compounds with potential medicinal properties. It has been used in traditional medicine for centuries to treat various health conditions such as respiratory disorders, liver diseases, and skin inflammations.
The active component of Glycyrrhiza uralensis is glycyrrhizin, which has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and expectorant properties. However, it should be noted that excessive consumption of glycyrrhizin can lead to serious side effects such as hypertension, hypokalemia, and edema. Therefore, it is important to use this herb under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
I apologize for any confusion, but "dioxoles" is not a medical term or concept. It is a chemical term that refers to a specific type of organic compound containing a dioxole ring, which is a six-membered ring consisting of two oxygen atoms and two carbon atoms. Dioxoles can be found in various natural and synthetic substances, but they are not typically relevant to medical definitions or concepts.
If you have any questions related to medical terminology or concepts, I would be happy to help answer them for you.
Optical rotation, also known as optical activity, is a property of certain substances to rotate the plane of polarization of linearly polarized light as it passes through the substance. This ability arises from the presence of optically active molecules, most commonly chiral molecules, which have a non-superimposable mirror image.
The angle and direction of rotation (either clockwise or counterclockwise) are specific to each optically active substance and can be used as a characteristic identification property. The measurement of optical rotation is an important tool in the determination of the enantiomeric purity of chiral compounds, such as drugs and natural products, in chemistry and pharmacology.
The optical rotation of a substance can be influenced by factors such as temperature, concentration, wavelength of light, and solvent used. The magnitude of the optical rotation is often reported as the specific rotation, which is the optical rotation per unit length (usually expressed in degrees) and per unit concentration (often given in grams per deciliter or g/dL).
