Evaluation of 13-week subchronic toxicity of Platycodon grandiflorus (Jacq.) A.DC. root extract in rats

Seung-Beom Cha et al.

Summary: The repeated oral administration of Platycodi radix water extract in Sprague-Dawley rats for 13 weeks resulted in increased incidences of hepatocellular hypertrophy in the liver, follicular cell hypertrophy in the thyroid gland, and squamous hyperplasia in the stomach at doses of >= 500 mg/kg/day. However, these changes were considered adaptive non-adverse changes as they were observed without organ weight change or clinical pathology alterations. No treatment-related effects were observed in clinical signs, body weight, food and water consumption, or other parameters at any dose tested.

3-O-trans-caffeoyloleanolic acid improves acute lung injury via anti-inflammation and antioxidative stress-involved PI3K/AKT pathway

Jianhua Huang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated the significant anti-inflammatory effects of 3-O-trans-caffeoyloleanolic acid (COA) and its protective effects in a mouse model of acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide. The findings suggest that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of COA may be mediated through its inhibition of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Capsaicin Protects Against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury Through the HMGB1/NF-κB and PI3K/AKT/mTOR Pathways

Hui Chen et al.

Summary: Our study demonstrates that CAP can protect against LPS-induced ALI by inhibiting oxidative stress, inflammatory responses and apoptosis through down-regulation of the HMGB1/NF-kappa B and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways. The results showed that CAP pretreatment significantly protected mice from LPS-induced ALI, with reduced lung histological damage, pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, and increased antioxidant activity.
