Adenophora Stricta Root Extract Alleviates Airway Inflammation in Mice with Ovalbumin-Induced Allergic Asthma.

The study found that the root extract from Miq., a traditional herb, can reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms of allergic asthma. It also inhibits the production of proinflammatory mediators by LPS in macrophages. This suggests that Miq. root could be a useful herb for managing airway inflammation in allergic asthma.

By-Product Extracts from Castanea sativa Counteract Hallmarks of Neuroinflammation in a Microglial Model.

Chestnut leaf extracts have been found to have a higher anti-neuroinflammatory effect than spiny bur extracts in a study using BV-2 microglial cells as a model of neuroinflammation. The study also discovered specific flavonoids and unsaturated fatty acids in the leaf extract that are responsible for the observed effects. This research demonstrates the potential of chestnut by-products as a source of bioactive compounds and provides opportunities for the valorization of waste material generated during chestnut processing while satisfying consumer demand for natural compounds.
