A number of wogonin derivatives have been synthesized as congeners of wogonin and evaluated for their inhibitory activities of PGE2 production. Wogonin derivatives modified at the B ring of wogonin were obtained from 2,4-Dihydroxy-3,6-dimethoxyacetophenone (1) via several steps. Most wogonin derivatives exhibited much reduced inhibitory activities against COX-2 catalyzed PGE2 production compared to that of wogonin. Alkylation of 5,7-phenol groups and substitution at the B ring of wogonin generally caused reduction of inhibitory activity.

Introduction: This study aimed to explore the impact and mechanism of Scutellariae radix (SR), dried root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi of Labiatae, on prenatal stress (PS) induced anxiety-like and depression-like behavior in the offspring in a mouse prenatal stress model.
Methods: The open field test (OFT), tail suspension test (TST), and forced swimming test (FST) were utilized to assess the behavior of the offspring. Histological changes were evaluated using HE staining and Nissl staining.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is among the most aggressive forms of pancreatic cancer with a poor prognosis. YAP1 expression is markedly elevated in PDAC, but how it works is not clear. GL-V9, a derivative of the natural compound wogonin, effectively fights a variety of tumors; however, its effect on PDAC has not yet been studied.

Background: Maintaining intracellular equilibrium is essential for the viability of tumor cells, which tend to be particularly vulnerable to environmental stressors. Consequently, targeting the disruption of this homeostasis offers a promising approach for oncological treatments. LW-213, a novel derivative of wogonin, effectively induces apoptosis in cancer cells by initiating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, although the precise molecular pathways involved remain intricate and multifaceted.

Background: Oral Mucositis (OM) is a common and highly symptomatic complication of cancer therapy that affects patient function and quality of life. Jingzhi Niuhuangjiedu Tablet (JNT) is derived from the famous Chinese herbal formulas Huanglian Jiedu and Fangfeng Tongsheng decoctions, which have been widely used to treat heat toxin syndrome diseases, such as acute pharyngitis, periodontitis, oral ulcers, and oral mucositis (OM), but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.
Objectives: This study validated the efficacy and explored the potential mechanisms of JNT in the treatment of OM by integrating network pharmacological analyses and experimental verification.
