Sedative Effect of Sophora flavescens and Matrine
The present study investigated the sedative effects of Sophora flavescens (SF) and its bioactive compound, matrine through performing locomotor activity test and the electroencephalography (EEG) analysis in the rat. The underlying neural mechanism of their beneficial effects was determined by assessing c-Fos immunoreactivity and serotonin (5-HT) in the brain utilizing immunohistochemical method...
متن کاملTyrosinase inhibitory prenylated flavonoids from Sophora flavescens.
For the purpose of the development of a skin-whitening agent, Sophora flavescens was evaluated for tyrosinase inhibitory activity and its active principles were identified following activity-guided isolation. The ethanol extract and dichloromethane fraction from S. flavescens showed significant inhibition of mushroom tyrosinase. From the dichloromethane fraction, three known prenylated flavonoi...
متن کاملHepatotoxicity Induced by Sophora flavescens and Hepatic Accumulation of Kurarinone, a Major Hepatotoxic Constituent of Sophora flavescens in Rats.
Our previous study showed that kurarinone was the main hepatotoxic ingredient of Sophora flavescens, accumulating in the liver. This study characterized the mechanism of Sophora flavescens extract (ESF) hepatotoxicity and hepatic accumulation of kurarinone. ESF impaired hepatic function and caused fat accumulation in the liver after oral administration (1.25 and 2.5 g/kg for 14 days in rats). S...
متن کاملMicrowave-assisted extraction of oxymatrine from Sophora flavescens.
In this paper, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of oxymatrine from Sophora flavescens were studied by HPLC-photodiode array detection. Effects of several experimental parameters, such as concentration of extraction solvent, ratio of liquid to material, microwave power, extraction temperature, and extraction time on the extraction efficiencies of oxymatrine were evaluated. The optimal extract...
متن کاملHuman ACAT Inhibitory Effects of Flavonoids from Sophora flavescens
Acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT, EC 2.3.1.26) is the primary cellular enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cholesteryl esters from cholesterol and fatty acyl-coenzyme A. It has been identified that two isoenzymes, ACAT-1 and ACAT-2, have different cell locations, membrane orientations, and metabolic functions. Atherosclerotic lesions are associated with the accumulation of c...
