The studies of anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities and pharmacokinetics of Oxytropis falcate Bunge extraction after transdermal administration in rats.
    Fitoterapia, 2011, Volume: 82, Issue:3

    The aim of this study was to evaluate the activities of anti-inflammatory and analgesic of the total flavonoids extraction from Oxytropis falcate Bunge (FEO) after transdermal administration. The pharmacokinetics and absolute bioavailability of FEO in rat, furthermore, was studied. Firstly, the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of the FEO were studied by xylene-induced ear edema, adjuvant-induced joint inflammation law in rats, acetic acid-induced writhing and hot-plate tests in mice. Secondly, we developed a sensitive and specific HPLC method to analyze 2', 4'-dihydroxychalcone (TFC, the mainly ingredient of FEO) in rat plasma to study the pharmacokinetic of TEC. The results showed FEO has anti-inflammatory and analgesic property in a dose-dependent manner, and that the high dose group (90.6 mg/kg) of FEO appeared more significantly effective than the positive drug. From the pharmacokinetic studies of TFC in rats, we got the main pharmacokinetic parameters of TFC, providing a basis for the future studies in clinic.

3,4-Dihydroxychalcones as potent 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase inhibitors.
    Journal of medicinal chemistry, 1993, Nov-26, Volume: 36, Issue:24

    A novel series of 3,4-dihydroxychalcones was synthesized to evaluate their effects against 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase. Almost all compounds exhibited potent inhibitory effects on 5-lipoxygenase with antioxidative effects, and some also inhibited cyclooxygenase. The 2',5'-disubstituted 3,4-dihydroxychalcones with hydroxy or alkoxy groups exhibited optimal inhibition of cyclooxygenase. We found that 2',5'-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroxychalcone (37; HX-0836) inhibited cyclooxygenase to the same degree as flufenamic acid and 5-lipoxygenase, more than quercetin. Finally, these active inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase inhibited arachidonic acid-induced mouse ear edema more than phenidone.
