Abstract
Oleanolic acid can inhibit edema and exhibit obvious inhibitory activity to inflammatory by activating of the pituitary-adrenal cortical system, inhibiting the synthesis or release of PGs, inhibiting endotoxin-mediated release of HMGB1 by endothelial cells or regulating MAPK, PI3K/Akt/NF- κB/ICAM-1/JAK/STAT signaling pathways, etc. In recent years, an increased number of interesting research work has been carried out on the anti-inflammatory activity and mechanisms of OA derivatives, such as acyloxyimino derivative, 3-acetylated derivatives, novel 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles derivatives, acetate, ester derivatives and oximes derivatives. The review summaries and highlights the updated advances on the anti-inflammatory activity and mechanism of OA and its derivatives.

Bioprospecting of Natural Products as Sources of New Multitarget Therapies
According to the Convention on Biological Diversity, bioprospecting is the exploration of biodiversity and indigenous knowledge to develop commercially valuable products for pharmaceutical and other applications. Bioprospecting involves searching for useful organic compounds in plants, fungi, marine organisms, and microorganisms. Natural products traditionally constituted the primary source of more than ...read more
Drugs and mitochondria
Mitochondria play a central role in the life and death of cells. They are not merely the center for energy metabolism but are also the headquarters for different catabolic and anabolic processes, calcium fluxes, and various signaling pathways. Mitochondria maintain homeostasis in the cell by interacting with reactive oxygen-nitrogen species ...read more
Mitochondria as a Therapeutic Target in Metabolic Disorders
Mitochondria are the primary site of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production in mammalian cells. Moreover, these organelles are an important source of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in virtually any nucleated cell type. The modulation of a myriad of cellular signaling pathways depends on the mitochondrial physiology. Mitochondrial dysfunction is observed ...read more
