Astragalin Attenuates Allergic Inflammation in a Murine Asthma Model.

abstract：:The biological effects of asiatic acid (AA) on spinal cord injury (SCI)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) have not been investigated. We aimed to investigate the therapeutic efficacy and molecular mechanisms of AA on SCI-induced ALI. One-hundred and fifty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to five groups: sham, ...
