Enhancement of neutrophil chemotaxis by trans-anethole-treated Staphylococcus aureus strains

PLOS ONE, 2023
This study aimed to analyze the chemotactic response of differentiated HL-60 neutrophil-like (dHL-60) cells totrans-anethole (TA)-treatedStaphylococcus aureusstrains. Special attention was paid to evaluate the influence of TA on thechpgene expression level, as well as molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation studies on interactions of ...

Innate Immune Response against Staphylococcus aureus Preincubated with Subinhibitory Concentration of trans-Anethole [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The study aimed to analyze morphological and functional changes of Staphylococcus aureus cells due to trans-anethole (a terpenoid and the major constituent of fennel, anise, or star anise essential oils) exposition, and their consequences for human neutrophils phagocytic activity as well as IL-8 production (recognized as the major chemoattractant). The

GC-MS metabolites profiling of anethole-rich oils by different extraction techniques: antioxidant, cytotoxicity and in-silico enzymes inhibitory insights

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2022
GC-MS profiling and metabolomics study of anise and star anise oils obtained by hydrodistillation, n-hexane, and microwave-assisted extraction methods were conducted herein. Trans-anethole was the major phenylpropanoid in both oils.

Acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity: Preventive effect of trans anethole

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2017
The hepatotoxicity induced by APAP is caused by the excessive production of N-acetyl-para-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), which, when reacting with hepatic proteins proved to cause irreversible lesions. Associated with this process, an intense inflammatory process is also evidenced, characterized by the increased cell influx and production/release of ...
