Gastric motor dysfunction induced by psychological stress results in many symptoms of functional dyspepsia (FD). There are a number of herbal medicines that are reported to improve gastrointestinal motor. However, the mechanisms of considerable herbal medicines are not explicit. In the present study, the effects of an essential oil (EO) extracted from Atractylodes lancea on delayed gastric emptying, gastrointestinal hormone and hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) abnormalities induced by restraint stress in rats were investigated and the mechanism of the EO is also explored.Oral administration of EO for 7 days did not affect normal gastric emptying, but accelerated delayed gastric emptying induced by restraint stress in rats. The EO significantly increased the levels of motilin (MTL) and gastrin (GAS) and decreased the levels of somatostatin (SS) and CRF. The EO did not modify gastric emptying in vagotomized rats that underwent restraint stress, but antagonized delayed gastric emptying induced by intracisternal injection of CRF. These results suggest that the regulative effects of the EO on delayed gastric emptying are preformed mainly via inhibition of the release of central CRF and activation of vagal pathway, which are also involved in the release of gastrointestinal hormones such as MTL, GAS and SS. 相似文献

A combination of ethanolic extracts from nine medicinal plants is successfully used in STW 5 (Iberogast®) for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. To elucidate possible modes of action, the focus of this study is on antioxidant properties of the phytomedicine STW 5. In fact, functional gastrointestinal diseases, such as non-ulcer dyspepsia (NUD) and irritable bowel syndrome, are often initiated by or correlated to inflammatory processes, where oxidants such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role. Prominent in vivo sources of ROS generation are represented by the enzymes xanthine oxidase (XOD) or myeloperoxidase (MPO). Applying these enzymes in models in vitro, we show that STW 5 and its components possess strong antioxidant activities. Depending on the model investigated, even pro-oxidant activites of single components of STW 5 could be observed. Interestingly, these effects were absent in STW 5, indicating cooperation between the components. Moreover, if one of the component extracts of STW 5 is omitted, the antioxidant activity is reduced. Thus we conclude that all the single extracts combined in STW 5 are of importance for the therapeutic effect, working in concert. The component of STW 5 performing best in vitro differed with the model investigated, respectively, with ROS and ROS generators. In the XOD system, the extracts of lemon balm leaf and peppermint leaf showed the best antioxidant result, whereas concerning MPO driven chlorination reactions, bitter candy tuft extract was the most efficient antioxidant. Best protection against peroxynitrite induced oxidation of methionine like sulfur-compounds exhibited the STW 5 components lemon balm leaf, Matricaria flower and peppermint leaf. 相似文献

Nonselective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most widely used classes of medications to treat pain and inflammation. However, gastrointestinal complications associated with NSAIDs are prevalent, largely due to the frequent use of these agents. Adverse events associated with NSAIDs include minor side effects, such as dyspepsia, as well as serious complications, such as bleeding and perforation. Although the probability that any given individual user of an NSAID will suffer a serious gastrointestinal complication is fairly low, widespread patient exposure can translate into a major national health burden. The increasing use of aspirin in the prevention of cardiovascular events and the availability of select over-the-counter NSAIDs represent additional challenges to clinicians in their efforts to make the most appropriate therapeutic decisions while minimizing the potential gastrointestinal risks associated with the use of these agents. Side effects such as dyspepsia do not provide adequate warning of gastrointestinal complications, because most complications occur without the presence of antecedent symptoms. Therefore, accurate risk assessment and the management of controllable risk factors are crucial to the safe administration of NSAIDs. This review focuses on the gastrointestinal effects of aspirin, acetaminophen, and other nonselective NSAIDs, and discusses those factors that are associated with increased risk for adverse gastrointestinal events in certain individuals. 相似文献

Many classes of bioactive drug-like molecules derived from traditional herbal plants are becoming attractive as alternative
medicines for the treatment of severe chronic diseases such as cancer and obesity. A set of chemically synthesized drugs that
is capable of both inhibiting cancer growth and reducing body weight for treatment of obesity have severe side effects including
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea as well as producing increased blood pressure and headache, respectively. For decades, drug candidates
from herbal plants have been considered as potential therapeutic agents because they are generally safer, less toxic, and
have fewer lethal side effects than chemically synthesized or semi-synthetic drugs. Understanding the key factors affecting
pharmacological effects and clinical outcomes has been a critical theme of natural product research. However, standardized
sample preparation methods, well-controlled scientific studies, and validation studies are needed before herbal therapeutics
can be introduced into the global market. This review will address the current advances in using traditional herbal plants,
including the pharmacological effects and the challenges faced during the development of new drugs. The safety issues associated
with toxicity and the effectiveness of the herbs in specific diseases such as cancer and obesity are also discussed. 相似文献

Botanicals and herbal preparations are medicinal preparations, containing a single or two or more medicinal plants. The focus of this review paper is on the analytical methodologies, which included the combination of sample preparation tools and chromatographic techniques for the chemical standardization of marker compounds or active ingredients in botanicals and herbal preparations. The common problems and key challenges in the chemical standardization of botanicals and herbal preparations were discussed. As sample preparation is the most important step in the development of analytical methods for the analysis of constituents present in botanicals and herbal preparations, the strength and weakness of different extraction techniques are discussed. For the analysis of compounds present in the plant extracts, the applications of common chromatographic techniques, such as HPLC, CE, HRGC/MS, HPLC/MS and HPLC/MS/MS are discussed. The strength, weakness and applicability of various separation tools are stated. Procedures for the identification of marker or active compounds in plant extracts, using HPLC/MS, were proposed. Finally, the effects of batch-to-batch variation of the medicinal plants are investigated and discussed. 相似文献

Decoctions of Agapanthus africanus and Clivia miniata are used as oxytocic agents in South African traditional herbal medicine. Aqueous extracts of A. africanus and C. miniata leaves have been shown to possess similar uterotonic activities in the isolated whole uterus preparation. The uterus however, comprises a myometrial and an endometrial layer and the activity of both oxytocin and the prostaglandins differs in these layers. The aim of this study was to determine the uterotonic activity of the herbal remedies in an endometrium-free preparation (i.e. "stripped" myometrium) and, if active, whether this effect could be related to prostaglandin synthesis or to interaction with specific receptors. The effects of the herbal extracts were tested on the isolated "stripped" rat myometrium preparation. Both herbal extracts caused a direct contractile response by the isolated tissue. Pretreatment of the myometrium with either plant extract augmented the initial response to acetylcholine. Preincubation with atropine inhibited the response to cumulative dosage of Agapanthus extract but had no effect on the response to Clivia. Indomethacin administration did not affect the response of the myometrium to cumulative dosage of acetylcholine, oxytocin or Clivia extract but inhibited the response to Agapanthus extract. These results clearly indicate that the Agapanthus and Clivia herbal extracts exhibited uterotonic activity in this model. The study illustrates that the "stripped" myometrium model has successfully differentiated between the mechanisms of action of two herbal oxytocics compared to the whole uterus preparation where their uterotonic activity was thought to be similar. 相似文献

Functional dyspepsia is a common chronic disorder with non-specific upper abdominal symptoms which can not be explained by organic or biochemical abnormalities. The dyspeptic symptoms are very compromising and bothersome and result in a substantial reduction of quality of life. The substantial direct and indirect medical and economical costs induce a high socioeconomic interest in the pathogenesis and the treatment options of this disease. Over the past 30 years several theories about the etiology of the symptoms in functional dyspepsia patients have been put forward. These include disorders of gastrointestinal motility, acid secretion, visceral hypersensitivity, adaptation and accommodation, Hp-infection, mucosal inflammation and finally genetic predisposition. There is increasing evidence that functional dyspepsia is a multi-causal disorder, which leads to altered processing of afferent information from the gastrointestinal tract to the CNS. Autonomic hypersensitivity and altered central processing could be a common phenomenon whereas motility changes, inflammation or altered secretion could increase neural afferent inputs. Treatment of this complex disorder could and should involve these different levels of symptom generation. Thus different approaches with anti-secretory, spasmolytic, prokinetic and anti-inflammatory effects and most preferably reduction of visceral hypersensitivity seem logical. This could explain the variety of drugs which show a positive symptomatic response. This could also offer the conclusion, whether a combination of these drugs could be clinically superior which remains to be proven. And this could offer a logical approach for the use of substances with a multi-target action, e.g. STW 5. 相似文献

The therapeutic equivalence of the multi-herbal drug combination STW 5 (Iberogast ®) with two synthetic standard drugs can be explained by an additive or overadditive pharmacological synergism. A review of the different chemical constituents contained in this fixed combination of nine herbal drug extracts and their dominant mechanisms of action shows that they correlate very well with the clinically relevant overall pharmacological profile of the multi-herbal drug combination. This comprises modulatory effects on gastro-intestinal motility, anti-inflammatory action, inhibitory effects on gastric acid production and anti-oxidative and radical-inhibiting properties. As a multi-drug preparation with a multitude of therapeutic targets relevant in functional gastrointestinal diseases, its pharmacological profile of action in accordance with the multi-target principle. 相似文献

It is well known that Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with many nonmalignant disorders such as gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastric polyp, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)/aspirin-induced gastric injury, and functional dyspepsia. In 2008, interesting articles on the association of H. pylori infection with these disorders were presented, some of which intended to reveal the mechanisms of inter-individual differences in response to H. pylori infection, and have demonstrated that genetic differences in host and bacterial factors as well as environmental factors account for these differences. A decline in the occurrence of peptic ulcer related to H. pylori was confirmed. An inverse relationship between H. pylori infection and GERD was also confirmed but the impact of gastric atrophy on the prevention of GERD remained debatable. For NSAID-induced gastric injury, eradication of H. pylori infection has been recommended. During this year, eradication of H. pylori infection was recommended for patients treated with antiplatelet therapy as well as aspirin and NSAID. It was also reported that for patients with functional dyspepsia, eradication of H. pylori offers a modest but significant benefit. 相似文献

It is clear that non-ulcer (or functional) dyspepsia is a heterogeneous syndrome that includes a subset of patients with unrecognized gastroesophageal reflux. Patient heterogeneity combined with inadequate study methodology has led to enormous confusion in interpreting the relationship between Helicobacter pylori and non-ulcer dyspepsia. The possibility that H. pylori is associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease may explain, in part, the difficulty in establishing a link between non-ulcer dyspepsia and H. pylori infection. It is unclear whether the prevalence of H. pylori is increased in non-ulcer dyspepsia over and above the background population. H. pylori does not appear to be linked to heartburn or other specific upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms. The results of eradication trials in H. pylori-infected patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia have been equivocal and generally flawed. There is no doubt that H. pylori is not a sufficient cause of non-ulcer dyspepsia, because it is well documented in the literature that dyspepsia can occur in the absence of infection and infection can occur in the absence of symptoms. At this stage, there is insufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that H. pylori is etiologically linked to non-ulcer dyspepsia, but data from well designed large randomized controlled trials of eradication therapy, are awaited with great interest. 相似文献

The emergence of drug resistant variants of the influenza virus has led to a need to identify novel and effective antiviral agents. As an alternative to synthetic drugs, the consolidation of empirical knowledge with ethnopharmacological evidence of medicinal plants offers a novel platform for the development of antiviral drugs. The aim of this study was to identify plant extracts with proven activity against the influenza virus. Extracts of fifty medicinal plants, originating from the tropical rainforests of Borneo used as herbal medicines by traditional healers to treat flu-like symptoms, were tested against the H1N1 and H3N1 subtypes of the virus. In the initial phase, in vitro micro-inhibition assays along with cytotoxicity screening were performed on MDCK cells. Most plant extracts were found to be minimally cytotoxic, indicating that the compounds linked to an ethnomedical framework were relatively innocuous, and eleven crude extracts exhibited viral inhibition against both the strains. All extracts inhibited the enzymatic activity of viral neuraminidase and four extracts were also shown to act through the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) pathway. Moreover, the samples that acted through both HI and neuraminidase inhibition (NI) evidenced more than 90% reduction in virus adsorption and penetration, thereby indicating potent action in the early stages of viral replication. Concurrent studies involving Receptor Destroying Enzyme treatments of HI extracts indicated the presence of sialic acid-like component(s) that could be responsible for hemagglutination inhibition. The manifestation of both modes of viral inhibition in a single extract suggests that there may be a synergistic effect implicating more than one active component. Overall, our results provide substantive support for the use of Borneo traditional plants as promising sources of novel anti-influenza drug candidates. Furthermore, the pathways involving inhibition of hemagglutination could be a solution to the global occurrence of viral strains resistant to neuraminidase drugs. 相似文献

Many childhood diseases such as autism spectrum disorders, allergic disease, and obesity are on the increase. Although environmental factors are thought to play a role in this increase. The mechanisms at play are unclear but increasing evidence points to an interaction with the gastrointestinal microbiota as being potentially important. Recently this community of bacteria and perturbation of its colonization in early life has been linked to a number of diseases. Many factors are capable of influencing this colonization and ultimately leading to an altered gut microbiota which is known to affect key systems within the body. The impact of the microbial composition of our gastrointestinal tract on systems outside the gut is also becoming apparent. Here we highlight the factors that are capable of impacting on microbiota colonization in early‐life and the developing systems that are affected and finally how this may be involved in the manifestation of childhood diseases.

Limited evidence is available as to whether Kampo medicine modifies gastrointestinal function in humans. We investigated the effect of a Kampo medicine, Hange-koboku-to (Banxia-houpo-tang, HKT), on patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) and on healthy volunteers with regard to gastric motility. The gastric emptying rate (GER) in FD patients was significantly lower than in the healthy subjects. GER in FD patients and in healthy volunteers showed a significant increase after 2 weeks of medication with HKT. Furthermore, gastrointestinal symptoms improved significantly in the FD patients after the administration of HKT. These results suggest that HKT improves delayed gastric emptying and acts as a prokinetic agent. 相似文献

The quality of a phytomedicine is defined by the quality of the herbal drug, the manufacturing of the drug preparations and the properties of the finished product, taking into account the special requirements of the individual herbal species in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards [2003. Medicinal Products for Human and Veterinary Use. Eudralex, vol. 4 (2003/94/EC)]. The quality control of the complete process is based on pharmacognostic methods, characteristic fingerprint chromatograms, defined amounts of marker substances, physicochemical characteristics and microbiological monitoring. For a herbal multi-component preparation used in multi-target therapy, these pharmaceutical prerequisites have to be ensured for all components and for their combination, as is exemplified by Iberogast® (STW 5) a fixed combination of hydroethanolic extracts of bitter candytuft (Iberis amara), angelica root (Angelicae radix), milk thistle fruit (Silybi mariani fructus), celandine herb (Chelidonii herba), caraway fruit (Carvi fructus), liquorice root (Liquiritiae radix), peppermint herb (Menthae piperitae folium), balm leaf (Melissae folium) and chamomile flower (Matricariae flos) using in the therapy of gastrointestinal compliants (Rösch et al., 2006).The prerequisites for the quality of each of its components according to actual standards are at first the cultivation of the plant material according to the Guidelines for Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) conditions of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants [1998. Z. Arzn. Gew. Pfl. 3, 166–178] to yield a defined raw material of high quality. Characteristic compounds of the extracts had to be identified and different analytical methods such as HPLC, with low coefficients of variation had to be developed to analyze each of the standardized ethanolic extracts and the finished product.At the example of the extract of I. amara these necessary investigations are described. The variability of the plant material in its natural habitats, the identification of characteristic compounds and exemplary chromatograms for fingerprint evaluation and quantification are shown. These data are required for characterization of the profile of the active substances in the finished product. 相似文献

ABSTRACTOne of the major medical challenges of the twenty-first century is the treatment of incurable and fatal neurodegenerative disorders caused by misfolded prion proteins. Since the discovery of these diseases a number of studies have been conducted to identify small molecules for their treatment, however to date no curative treatment is available. These studies can be highly expensive and time consuming, but more recent experimental approaches indicate a significant application for yeast prions in these studies. We therefore used yeast prions to optimize previous high-throughput methods for the cheaper, easier and more rapid screening of natural extracts. Through this approach we aimed to identify natural yeast-prion inhibitors that could be useful in the development of novel treatment strategies for neurodegenerative disorders. We screened 500 marine invertebrate extracts from temperate waters in Australia allowing the identification of yeast-prion inhibiting extracts. Through the bioassay-driven chemical investigation of an active Suberites sponge extract, a group of bromotyrosine derivatives were identified as potent yeast-prion inhibitors. This study outlines the importance of natural products and yeast prions as a first-stage screen for the identification of new chemically diverse and bioactive compounds. 相似文献
