Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities of cat's claw (Uncaria tomentosa and Uncaria guianensis) are independent of their alkaloid content.
Manuel Sandoval,Nataly N. Okuhama,Xiao-Jing Zhang,L.A. Condezo,Juan Lao,Fausto M. Angeles,R.A. Musah,P. Bobrowski,Mark J S Miller +8 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that while both species of cat's claw provide effective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, U. guianensis is more potent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cat’s claw inhibits TNFα production and scavenges free radicals: role in cytoprotection
Manuel Sandoval,Randi M Charbonnet,Nataly N. Okuhama,Jarod Roberts,Zdenka Krenova,Ann Marie Trentacosti,Mark J S Miller +6 more
TL;DR: The primary mechanism for cat's claw anti-inflammatory actions appears to be immunomodulation via suppression of TNFalpha synthesis, which is an effective antioxidant but perhaps more importantly a remarkably potent inhibitor of T NFalpha production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant activity of the cruciferous vegetable Maca (Lepidium meyenii)
Manuel Sandoval,Nataly N. Okuhama,Fausto M. Angeles,Vanessa V. Melchor,Luis A. Condezo,Juan Lao,Mark J S Miller +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, an aqueous extract of Maca (Lepidium meyenii) was used to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the plant and the results indicated that Maca has the capacity to scavenge free radicals and protect cells against oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy and safety of freeze-dried cat's claw in osteoarthritis of the knee: mechanisms of action of the species Uncaria guianensis.
TL;DR: Cat's claw is an effective treatment for osteoarthritis and their anti-inflammatory properties may result from their ability to inhibit TNFα and to a lesser extent PGE2 production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary antioxidants protect gut epithelial cells from oxidant-induced apoptosis
TL;DR: It is indicated that dietary antioxidants can limit epithelial cell death in response to oxidant stress and the cytoprotective response exceed their inherent ability to interact with the injurious oxidant, suggestive of actions on intracellular pathways regulating cell death.
