Suppressive Effects of the Gynura bicolor Ether Extract on Endothelial Permeability and Leukocyte Transmigration in Human Endothelial Cells Induced by TNF‐α

Abstract: Gynura bicolor (Roxb. and Willd.) DC (G. bicolor) is generally used as a dietary vegetable and traditional herb in Taiwan and the Far East. G. bicolor exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and regulates blood lipids and cholesterol. However, the effects of G. bicolor on endothelial transmigration and atherosclerosis are not clear. The present study investigated the effects of G. bicolor on endothelial permeability and transmigration in human endothelial cells. We prepared G. bicolor ether extract (G… Show more

“…The iNOS, COX-2 and NF-κB signalling molecule expression was analysed using the method described by Hsieh et al [51]. At the end of the treatment, the cells were collected in 200 µL of lysis buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, 5 mM EDTA, 0.2 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and 20 µg/mL aprotinin, pH 7.4), and the protein content was determined according to the method of Lowry et al [44].…”

“…Pharmacological compounds that can maintain the homeostasis of endothelial junctions have attracted attention due to their potential clinical applicability in alleviating vascular diseases ( 19 - 21 ). Rosmarinic acid (RA; also known as α-O-caffeoyl-3,4-dihydroxyphenyl lactic acid) is a polyphenolic antioxidant that can be found in the Lamiaceae family of herbs and mint, such as Rosmarinus officinalis ( 22 ).…”
