Demethyleneberberine alleviated the inflammatory response by targeting MD-2 to inhibit the TLR4 signaling.

Introduction: The colitis induced by trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) is a chronic and systemic inflammatory disease that leads to intestinal barrier dysfunction and autoimmunedisorders. However, the existing treatments of colitis are associated with poor outcomes, and the current strategies remain deep and long-time remission and the prevention of complications. Recently, demethyleneberberine (DMB) has been reported to be a potential candidate for the treatment of inflammatory response that relied on multiple pharmacological activities, including anti-oxidation and antiinflammation.

Demethyleneberberine blocked the maturation of IL-1β in inflammation by inhibiting TLR4-mitochondria signaling.

Demethyleneberberine (DMB) is a natural product from traditional Chinese medicinal herb the rhizome of Coptis chinensis Franch., which has been reported to possess multiple pharmacological activities, especially anti-inflammation and immunoregulation. However, the potential mechanism of DMB in inflammation is still a mystery.

Gegen Qinlian decoction relieved DSS-induced ulcerative colitis in mice by modulating Th17/Treg cell homeostasis via suppressing IL-6/JAK2/STAT3 signaling.

Background: Gegen Qinlian decoction (GQ) is a traditional Chinese herbal prescription that has been widely used for the treatment of bacterial dysentery and enteric typhoid fever. Recently, GQ has been clinically reported to be a potential candidate for the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). However, the immunoregulatory function of GQ in the treatment of UC has not been fully elucidated.

Gegen Qinlian decoction maintains colonic mucosal homeostasis in acute/chronic ulcerative colitis via bidirectionally modulating dysregulated Notch signaling.

Background: Gegen Qinlian decoction (GQ) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine that has been clinically proven to be effective in treating ulcerative colitis (UC). However, its therapeutic mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Notch signaling plays an essential role in the regeneration of the intestinal epithelium.
