Erianin alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury via antagonizing P-selectin-mediated neutrophil adhesion function

Dendrobium officinale Kimura et Migo, known as "Tiepi Shihu" in traditional Chinese medicine, boasts an extensive history of medicinal use documented in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. "Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing" records D. officinale as a superior herbal medicine for fortifying "Yin" and invigorating the five viscera. Erianin, a benzidine compound, emerges as a prominent active constituent derived from D. officinale, with the pharmacological efficacy of D. officinale closely linked to the anti-inflammatory properties of erianin.
