Identification of the ellagitannin geraniin as a novel Hsp90 inhibitor [PDF]
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a highly conserved molecular chaperone assisting the proper protein folding and assembly, and targeting misfolded proteins to the proteolytic degradation.1 - 3 Inhibition of the Hsp90 activity incapacitates simultaneously multiple client proteins, resulting in a blockade of multiple signaling pathways and, ultimately ...

Effects of geraniin on osteoclastic bone resorption and matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression
Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2013In our previous studies, geraniin was reported to have a preventive effect in the rat model of tretinoin-induced osteoporosis. However, whether geraniin exhibits an inhibitory effect on bone resorption or on MMP-9 expression is not yet known. We present here our novel findings from in vitro experiments that geraniin (a) decreases the number of mature ...

Osteoprotective effect of geraniin against ovariectomy-induced bone loss in rats
Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2015In the present study, we investigated the antiosteoporotic effect of geraniin on osteoporosis induced by OVX in rats. The analysis of biochemical parameters showed that geraniin could significantly increase serum calcium, estradiol and calcitonin levels, and decrease serum ALP, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, serum crosslinked C-terminal ...

Effects of Geraniin on Morphology and Function of Macrophages
International Archives of Allergy and Applied Immunology, 2009The effects of geraniin, a tannin, isolated from Geranium thunbergii Sieb. et Zucc. on the morphology and function of macrophages were studied. Geraniin caused a marked retardation of the recovery from fully spread surface membrane and a highly reorganized cytoskeleton of macrophages, whereas endocytotic activity, phagocytosis and pinocytosis in the ...

Antiosteoporosis effect of geraniin on ovariectomy‐induced osteoporosis in experimental rats
Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, 2021AbstractOsteoporosis is a skeletal condition that is characterized by decreasing bone density and deteriorating bone mass. The plant‐based phytoconstituent such as geraniin possesses better therapeutic potentials in biomedical field. In the current experimental study, we planned to scrutinize the therapeutic potential of geraniin against ovariectomy ...

Perspectives on geraniin, a multifunctional natural bioactive compound
Trends in Food Science & Technology, 2015Ellagitannins have shown many health benefits, yet knowledge and application of these compounds are seriously limited due to their complexity and diversity. In this review, we discuss the natural occurrence and spectrum of health benefits of the ellagitannin geraniin, and its potential as a functional food additive. We examine current literature on the

Identification of Urinary and Intestinal Bacterial Metabolites of Ellagitannin Geraniin in Rats
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2007Hydrolyzable tannins, including ellagitannins, occur in foods such as berries and nuts. Various biological activities, including antioxidant, antiviral, and antitumor activities, have been noted and reported for ellagitannins, but the absorption and metabolism of purified ellagitannins are poorly understood.
