Introduction: We aimed to determine the effect of lavandula angustifolia essential oil (LEO) on IL-23 and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene expressions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of relapse-remitting MS (RRMS) patients. Methods : LEO was prepared using the hydrodistilation method on the plants aerial parts.    8 female RRMS patients and 8 healthy sex and age matched controls were entered into this study. PBMC cells were separated using Ficoll method and were… Expand

Effect of lavender essential oil on LPS-stimulated inflammation.
TLDR
Treatment of 0.1% LEO significantly increased cell viability and inhibited the IL-1β and superoxide anion generation in LPS-stimulated THP-1 cells, suggesting that the LEO inhibited L PS-induced inflammatory effect might be associated with the expression of HSP70. Expand
Anti-inflammatory activity of hydroalcoholic extracts of Lavandula dentata L. and Lavandula stoechas L.
TLDR
L. dentata and L. stoechas extracts showed intestinal anti-inflammatory effect, confirming their potential use as herbal remedies in gastrointestinal disorders and suggesting a possible use for the treatment of the extra-intestinal symptoms of IBD. Expand
The Protective Effect of Lavender Essential Oil and Its Main Component Linalool against the Cognitive Deficits Induced by D-Galactose and Aluminum Trichloride in Mice
TLDR
LO and its active component LI have protected the oxidative stress, activity of cholinergic function and expression of proteins of Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, and synaptic plasticity in AD. Expand
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in patients with multiple sclerosis
TLDR
The reduced production of BDNF by PBMCs of patients with SP MS can contribute to the progression of demyelinating disease and axonal loss in this form and a neuroprotective effect ofBDNF produced by inflammatory cells can be hypothesized during relapses in MS. Expand
Increased Serum Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor in Multiple Sclerosis Patients on Interferon-&bgr; and Its Impact on Functional Abilities
TLDR
This study showed a significant effect of interferon-&bgr; 1b therapy on increasing BDNF production in multiple sclerosis. Expand
Biological activities of Lavender essential oil
TLDR
There does seem to be both scientific and clinical data that support the traditional uses of lavender, but methodological and oil identification problems have severely hampered the evaluation of the therapeutic significance of much of the research on Lavandula spp. Expand
Cytokine Gene Expression in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Sclerosis Patients
TLDR
Dysregulation of cytokines, mainly increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and decreased expression of inhibitory cytokines occurred in MS patients, and this study may shed light to the probable role of these cytokines in neurodegeneration mechanism and current or future use of cytokine in managing and treatment of multiple sclerosis. Expand
Increased IL-23p19 expression in multiple sclerosis lesions and its induction in microglia.
TLDR
Findings on the expression of IL-23p19 in multiple sclerosis lesions may lead to a better understanding of the events culminating in human multiple sclerosis. Expand
Neuroprotective Activity of Lavender Oil on Transient Focal Cerebral Ischemia in Mice
TLDR
Treatment with lavender oil significantly decreased neurological deficit scores, infarct size, the levels of MDA, carbonyl and ROS, and attenuated neuronal damage, upregulated SOD, CAT, GSH-Px activities and GSH/GSSG ratio are suggested to be attributed to its antioxidant effects. Expand
Increased levels of IL-23 and osteopontin in serum and cerebrospinal fluid of multiple sclerosis patients
TLDR
Both OPN and IL-23 may play pivotal role in development of MS and might be specific markers and therapeutic targets for MS. Expand
