Published: February 2017

Two new triterpene saponins, camelliosides I and J (1 and 2), two new megastigmane glycosides, camellistigosides A and B (3 and 4), and two known megastigmane glycosides, icariside B (5) and (6S,9R)-roseoside (6), were isolated from a methanol extract of the Camellia bugiamapensis leaves using various chromatographic separation techniques. Their structures were elucidated based on spectroscopic analyses, including HR ESI MS, CD, 1D and 2D NMR. Their inhibitory effects on LPS-induced NO production in RAW264.7 cells were evaluated. This is the first report of the chemical constituents and biological activity of C. bugiamapensis.

Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity is a significant concern in cancer treatment, as certain chemotherapeutic agents can have adverse effects on the cardiovascular system. This can lead to a range of cardiac complications, including heart failure, arrhythmias, myocardial dysfunction, pericardial complications, and vascular toxicity. Strategies to mitigate chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity may include the use of cardioprotective agents (e.

Renal tubular epithelial cell injury is an important manifestation of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aims to explore the mechanism of astragaloside IV (AS-IV) in the treatment of UII-mediated renal tubular epithelial cell injury by integrating network pharmacology and experimental validation. BATMAN, SwissTarget-Prediction and ETCM data bases were used to screen the target proteins of AS-IV.

This study investigated the mechanism by which ginsenoside Rg_(1 )attenuates hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R) injury in HL-1 cardiomyocytes by inhibiting the acetylation of ATP synthase subunit alpha(ATP5A1) through silent information regulator 3(SIRT3). In this study, an H/R injury model was constructed by hypoxia for 6 h and reoxygenation for 2 h in HL-1 cardiomyocytes. First, the optimal effective concentration of ginsenoside Rg_1 was determined using a cell viability assay kit.

5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu) is a chemotherapeutic agent widely used to treat various cancers, which causes intestinal mucositis as a common side effect. Ginsenoside Rc, an active compound with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and antitumor properties, has protective effects against chemotherapy-induced mucositis caused by 5-Fu. This study aims to evaluate the protective effects of Rc on 5-Fu-induced chemotherapy-related mucositis and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms.

Depression is one of the most common neurological diseases, which imposes a substantial social and economic burden on modern society. The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanism of total ginsenoside ginseng root (TGGR) in the treatment of depression through a comprehensive strategy combining network pharmacology, transcriptomics, and in vivo experimental validation. The Traditional Chinese Medicine Systematic Pharmacology (TCMSP) database and literature were used to collect the main components and targets of TGGR.
