polymorphonuclear leukocytes

Gordonoside J, a compound isolated from the stem of Chrysanthemum officinale, inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide production in rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNS).

(+)-Guaiacin, isolated from the bark of Machilus wangchiana Chun, demonstrates potent in vitro inhibition of β-glucuronidase release in rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) induced by platelet-activating factor (PAF).

1. Praeruptorin C and E can relax swine coronary artery and decrease contractility in guinea-pig left atria, these effects are similar in many respects to those displayed by drugs that have calcium entry blocking activity. 2. Praeruptorin D and E can prot

Magnolianin can inhibit strongly (IC50 = 0.45 uM) 5-HETE formation by die cytosol of guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

Morolic acid and moronic acid have shown sustained antidiabetic and antihyperglycemic action possibly mediated by an insulin sensitization with consequent changes of glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, in part mediated by inhibition of 11β-HSD 1. Moro
