Osthole as happy component and libido stimulator:"We investigated the cavern osal relaxant effect of osthole, a coumarin isolated from Cnidium monnier (L.) Cu sson which has been long used in China as a herbal medicine to improve male sexua l dysfunction. The data suggested that osthole posseses a relaxant effect on rabb it corpus cavernosal tissues which is attributable to the release of NO from sinu soidal endothelium and to the potentiation of the cGMP and/or cAMP signal mediati ng relaxation of cavernosal smooth muscle by inhibiting phosphodiesterase". (Corp us cavernosum = one of the columns of erectile tissue forming the dorsum of the p enis (one of the two columns of erectile tissue forming the clitoris)). 4.Vasorelaxation. Osthole."It is concluded that osthole relaxes rat thoracic aorta by virtue o f its Ca(2+)-channel blocking properties and by elevating cGMP levels in vascular smooth muscle". Osthole caused an inhibition of voltage-dependent L-type Ca(2+) current in a concentration dependent manner. The channel-blocking properties of osthole may, at least in part, contribute to the underlying mechanisms by which it affects neu ronal or neuroendocrine function. 5.Anti-inflammatory effects: Osthole and xanthotoxin showed anti-inflammator y activity. 6.Osthol modulates TRH-evoked responses by interacting with the TRH receptor : The influence of two plant coumarins, osthol and xanthotoxin, on intracellul ar Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) transients evoked by TRH were studied in clonal rat pituitary G H4C1 cells. Osthol, but not xanthotoxin, decreased the TRH-induced transient incr ease in [Ca2+]i in Fluo-3 loaded cells incubated in Ca(2+)-free buffer. Binding e xperiments with [3H]TRH showed that osthol decreased the binding of TRH to its re ceptor, whereas the affinity of the receptor for TRH increased. This resulted in a decreased TRH-evoked production of IP3 in cells treated with osthol, and a decr eased mobilization of sequestered calcium. Osthol did not inhibit the release of calcium evoked by exogenous IP3 in permeabilized cells. Furthermore, osthol decre ased the uptake of 45Ca2+ in response to high K+. Xanthotoxin had no effects in t hese experiments. The results show that osthol modulates TRH-evoked responses by interacting with the TRH receptor. 7.Anti-allergic effects:Osthol has anti-allergic effect, inhibits contact de rmatitis induced by 2,4-dinitro-fluorobenzene or picryl chloride.
