Disease relevance of Medicine, Kampo

 

High impact information on Medicine, Kampo

  • Choto-san (kampo Medicine) for the treatment of headache [6].
  • PURPOSE: Kampo medicine Hangeshashin-to (TJ-14) which contains baicalin, a beta-glucuronidase inhibitor, alleviates diarrhea induced by irinotecan (CPT-11) [7].
  • Repair of amyloid beta(25-35)-induced memory impairment and synaptic loss by a Kampo formula, Zokumei-to [8].
  • Orally administered decoction of Kampo (Japanese herbal) medicine, "Juzen-Taiho-To" modulates cytokine secretion and induces NKT cells in mouse liver [9].
  • The rats were divided into five groups: sham operated (Sham); ovariectomized (OVX); OVX given traditional Chinese (Kampo) medicine, Unkei-to; OVX given 17 beta-estradiol; and OVX given the estradiol vehicle, respectively [10].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Medicine, Kampo

 

Biological context of Medicine, Kampo

 

Anatomical context of Medicine, Kampo

  • The effects of antioxidative enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase), of several drugs of natural origin (e.g. Kampo Medicines) and synthetic agents (e.g. stobadine, nitrosopine, ACE inhibitors) suggest that smooth muscle tissues are useful models to study ROS action and drug intervention in ROS induced injuries [21].
  • These Kampo medicines, especially TJ-35 scavenged superoxide generated from the hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase system, and slightly inhibited the superoxide generation from polymorphonuclear leukocytes stimulated by phorbol myristate acetate or opsonized zymosan [22].
  • We recently found that Unkei-to, one of the Japanese Kampo medicines, stimulated CINC secretion by rat anterior pituitary cells and the pituitary folliculo-stellate (FS)-like cell line (TtT/GF) [23].
  • These findings suggest that the Kampo prescription Sho-saiko-to suppresses cytotoxicity or TNF-alpha production in macrophages treated with endotoxin and that it may be useful in improving septic shock symptoms [24].
 

Associations of Medicine, Kampo with chemical compounds

  • Sho-saiko-to (SST), Keishi-bukuryo-gan (KBG), and Shakuyaku-kanzo-to (SKT) are Japanese modified traditional Chinese herbal medicines (Kampo medicines) consisting of 7, 5, and 2 medical plants, respectively [25].
  • The administration of three Kampo medicines and 17beta-estradiol to OVX rats preserved the fine particle surface of the trabecular bone [26].
  • The acidic polysaccharide fraction (F-5-2) from "Juzen-Taiho-To" (TJ-48), a Kampo (Japanese herbal) medicine prepared by decocting a prescription of 10 kinds of herbs, has potent mitogenic activity [27].
  • Platelet-activating factor (PAF) in allergic diseases: inhibitory effects of anti-allergic drugs, ketotifen and three kampo medicines on PAF production [28].
  • The Kampo medicine, Ninjin-yoei-to, scavenged 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals in a dose-dependent fashion as did ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol [29].
 

Gene context of Medicine, Kampo

  • CONCLUSIONS: Frequently used Kampo medicines may interact with Western drugs, which are substrates for CYP3A4, CYP2C9 and CYP1A2 [30].
  • Furthermore, this study evaluated the effect of the Japanese herbal (kampo) medicine Keishi-bukuryo-gan from the aspect of CGRP regulation [31].
  • We examined the effect of Dai-kenchu-to (DKCT), a traditional Chinese (Kampo) medicine, on the levels of 3 brain-gut peptides (motilin, gastrin and somatostatin) in plasma from 24 healthy subjects [32].
  • This study indicates that Kampo medicines are useful for reducing the adverse effects accompanying IFN treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis C without reducing the antiviral effects [33].
  • We have already reported the existence of aldose reductase inhibitors in some kampo medicines [34].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Medicine, Kampo

  • Simultaneous determination of ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, norephedrine and methylephedrine in Kampo medicines by high-performance liquid chromatography [35].
  • In the present study we conducted rat liver perfusion using the HMG Co A reductase inhibitor (CS-514) and Kampo medicine (Daisaikoto) to elucidate the mechanism of the effect of dietary cholesterol on hepatic lipoprotein and apolipoprotein synthesis [36].
  • Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is now called "Kampo Medicine" in Japan. What is really needed for the treatment of human sickness and what is really wanted by sick people is medical care tailored to the particular patient, which respects the individual characteristics and personality of the patient [37].
  • In this study, we examined whether in vivo keishi-bukuryo-gan (a Kampo formulation) could prevent the progression of atherosclerosis in cholesterol-fed rabbits, an animal model for hypercholesterolaemia [38].
  • The patient was managed with the following medications: (1) tocolysis with ritodrine infusion, (2) 10%maltose infusion therapy (1500mL/day), (3) antibiotic infusion (cefotaxim sodium, 2 g/dayx7) and (4) kampo therapy with Sairei-to until delivery [39].
