Journal ArticleDOI

Carnosic acid, a new class of lipid absorption inhibitor from sage

TL;DR: Carnosic acid significantly inhibited triglyceride elevation in olive oil-loaded mice at doses of 5-20 mg/kg (p.o.) and reduced the gain of body weight and the accumulation of epididymal fat weight in high fat diet-fed mice after 14 days.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibitory effect and action mechanism of sesquiterpenes from Zedoariae Rhizoma on D-galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide-induced liver injury.

TL;DR: Hepatoprotective sesquiterpenes were isolated from the aqueous acetone extract of Zedoariae Rhizoma, the rhizome of Curcuma zedoaria ROSCOE and found to show potent protective effect on D-galactosamine (D-GalN)/lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute liver injury in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structures of new dammarane-type Triterpene Saponins from the flower buds of Panax notoginseng and hepatoprotective effects of principal Ginseng Saponins.

TL;DR: Five new dammarane-type triterpene saponins, notoginsenosides-O, -P, -Q, -S, and -T, were isolated together with nine known protopanaxadiol oligoglycosides and elucidated on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-hyperlipidemic sesquiterpenes and new sesquiterpene glycosides from the leaves of artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.): structure requirement and mode of action.

TL;DR: The methanolic extract from the leaves of artichoke was found to suppress serum triglyceride elevation in olive oil-loaded mice and inhibition of gastric emptying was shown to be partly involved in anti-hyperlipidemic activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of escins Ia, Ib, IIa, and IIb from horse chestnut, the seeds of Aesculus hippocastanum L., on acute inflammation in animals

TL;DR: The relationship between their chemical structures and activities, the acyl groups in escins were essential and showed more potent activities than escin Ia which had both the 21-tigloyl group and the 2'-O-glucopyranosyl moiety.
