Epimedin A (0.1-0.4 μM; 5 days) inhibits RANKL/M-CSF-induced osteoclast differentiation and reduces the mRNA expression of osteoclast-related genes in RAW264.7 cells. The mechanism involves the inhibition of the TRAF6/PI3K/AKT/NF-κB pathway[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

-
Dosage:5, 10 and 20 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral administration; 11 days
-
Result:Significantly and dose-dependently ameliorated DNFB-induced CD, as evidenced by repression of scratching behavior, dermatitis score, ear thickness and weight, and histopathological changes in ear tissues, as well as reduction of collagen fiber area percent.
Suppressed NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway, enhanced Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, reduced oxidative stress markers (MDA), increased antioxidant markers (GSH, SOD), inhibited pyroptosis-related molecules (NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, 8, GSDMD, LDH), and decreased inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-4, IFN-γ) and IgE levels (t-IgE, s-IgE, s-IgE/t-IgE ratio).
