Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 7335: Chemical Profiling and Biological Activity of Extracts from Nine Norwegian Medicinal and Aromatic Plants
s Rosnes There is an increased interest in identifying beneficial compounds of plant origin that can be added to animal diets to improve animal performance and have a health-promoting effect. In the present study, nine herb species of the Norwegian wild flora or which can be cultivated in Norway were selected for phytogenic evaluation (hops, maral root, mint, oregano, purslane, rosemary, roseroot, sweet wormwood, yarrow). Dried herbs were sequentially extracted with dichloromethane (DCM), ethanol (EtOH) and finally water (H2O) by ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). The UAE protocol was found to be more rational than ...

Pharmacological effects of salidroside on central nervous system diseases
Biomed Pharmacother. 2022 Oct 10;156:113746. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2022.113746. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSalidroside (SAL) is a phenylpropanoid glycoside monomer extracted from Rhodiola at high altitudes. It has been proven to have protective effects on myocardial injury, liver cancer, renal fibrosis, and other organ diseases, as well as play neuroprotective roles in central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Specifically, SAL can inhibit a series of pathological reactions in CNS diseases and improve neurological dysfunction.

Gut microbiota profiling revealed the regulating effects of salidroside on iron metabolism in diabetic mice
ConclusionsSAL could reduce the glucose level and protect against diabetic cardiomyopathy in diabetic mice, which might be mediated by the change in the gut microbiota and the regulation of iron metabolism. The findings suggested that SAL was a promising complementary option for diabetes therapy. (Source: Frontiers in Endocrinology)

The Mechanism of Volatile Oil of < em > Rhodiola tangutica < /em > against Hypoxia-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension in Rats Based on RAS Pathway
CONCLUSIONS: HPH rat model as established based on the significant increased mPAP and RVHI. VORA presented a significant antihypoxia function plus an inhibiting effect on PASMC proliferation induced by hypoxia. Moreover, VORA treatment inhibited oxidative stress among PASMCs. With regard to the mechanism, VORA reduced ACE, AngII, and AT1R protein expressions but increased ACE2 and MAS protein expressions. There were 48 constituents in VORA identified by GC-MS.PMID:36110120 | PMC:PMC9470319 | DOI:10.1155/2022/9650650 (Source: Biomed Res)

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 6058: Traditional Chinese Medicine Rhodiola Sachalinensis Borissova from Baekdu Mountain (RsBBM) for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Therapeutic Effect and Underlying Molecular Mechanisms
Shi Wenliang Li The lack of effective rheumatoid arthritis (RA) therapies is a persistent challenge worldwide, prompting researchers to urgently evaluate traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) as potential clinical RA treatments. The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic effects and potential molecular mechanisms of the active components isolated from TCM Rhodiola sachalinensis Borissova from Baekdu Mountain (RsBBM) using an experimental adjuvant arthritis model induced by injection of rats with Freund&amp;rsquo;s complete adjuvant. After induction of the adjuvant arthritis rat model, the ...

Tibetan medicine salidroside improves host anti-mycobacterial response by boosting inflammatory cytokine production in zebrafish
The treatment for tuberculosis (TB), especially multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), has a prolonged cycle which can last up to a year. This is partially due to the lack of effective therapies. The development of novel anti-TB drugs from the perspective of host immune regulation can provide an important supplement for conventional treatment strategies. Salidroside (SAL), a bioactive component from the Tibetan medicine Rhodiola rosea, has been used in the treatment of TB, although its mechanism remains unclear. Here, the bacteriostatic effect of SAL in vivo was first demonstrated using a zebrafish–M. marinum infection model. ...
