Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeroin-Induces Differential Protein Expression by Normal Human Astrocytes (NHA)Jessica L. Reynolds, Supriya D. Mahajan, Donald Sykes, Madhavan P.N. NairHeroin use is postulated to act as a cofactor in the neuropathogenesis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection. Astrocytes, integral components of the CNS, are reported to be susceptible to HIV-1 infection. Upon activation, astrocytes release a number of immunoregulatory products or modulate the expression of a number of proteins that foster the immunopathogenesis of HIV-1 infection. However, the role … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,261 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProteomics Approach for Investigating the Disease Resistance Using Cucumber as Model PlantSaligrama A. Deepak, Junko Shibato, Hideo Ishii et al.The profile of proteins induced in cucumber leaves pretreated with Acibenzolar-S-Methyl (ASM) and challenge inoculated with Colletotrichum orbiculare are presented. ASM was applied to the first leaf and the third leaf collected at different time intervals of 0-48 h and the total protein extracted using trichloroacetic acid acetone was analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Increased expressions of pyridoxine biosynthesis protein, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,240 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionated Distillation Behavior and Aroma Component Enrichment of Citronella Oil (Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt) from West SumatraDaimon Syukri, Anni Faridah, Bayu Indra Lesmana et al.This study aimed to separate the constituent components of citronella oil into several fractions with high purity and to identify the characteristics of the resulting fractions. The research was conducted using an exploratory approach to investigate the fractionation behavior of citronella oil more deeply. The raw materials were citronella oils obtained from three regions in West Sumatra: Batusangkar, Solok, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 849 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Identification and Antioxidant Profiling of Penicillium heteringtonii EUA-017 from Mangrove (Avicennia alba) in West Sumatra, IndonesiaAnthoni Agustien, Djong Hon Tjong, Yetria Rilda et al.Mangrove ecosystems harbor diverse endophytic fungi that produce bioactive secondary metabolites with potential antioxidant activities. This study aimed to identify an endophytic fungal isolate (EUA-017) from Avicennia alba mangroves in West Sumatra, Indonesia, and characterize its antioxidant metabolites. Molecular identification was performed using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequencing. Secondary metabolites from ethyl acetate extracts were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 25 Mar 2026 · 1,410 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Hydrodistillation Extraction by Response Surface Methodology and Evaluation of the Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Essential Oils from Phragmites communis (Cav) TrinXin-Tong Zou, Hong-Yuan Ma, Yu-He Li et al.The principal objectives of this study encompass three distinct aspects: firstly, to streamline the extraction process of Phragmites communis (Cav) Trin essential oil; secondly, to systematically analyze the essential oil’s chemical composition; and finally, to evaluate biological activity. Through the system optimization experiment, the optimal extraction process was determined: the crushing size was set to 10 mesh, the total solid-liquid … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2026 · 2,315 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Phytochemical Analysis of Hydrodistilled Essential Oils of Scots Pine (Pinus Sylvestris L.) Needles From Central KazakhstanKuralay Tuleshova, Margarita Ishmuratova, Asanali Aynabayev et al.This study presents a detailed phytochemical investigation of hydrodistilled essential oils extracted from the needles of Pinus sylvestris (Scots pine), collected from fifteen natural populations located in the Karaganda and Ulytau regions of Central Kazakhstan. The extraction was performed using hydrodistillation with hexane as a co-solvent, and the chemical composition of the oils was subsequently analyzed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2025 · 2,696 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytochemical Composition, Antibacterial, and Antioxidant Properties of Foeniculum vulgare Essential OilSaif M. Dmour, Saqr Abushattal, Sultan Ayesh Mohammed Saghir et al.This study intended to inspect the phytochemical composition and bioactivity of Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) Seed Essential Oil (FSEO) from Jordan. The EO was extracted via hydrodistillation from air-dried samples with 4.42% (v/w) yield. Twenty compounds, constituting around 98.5% of the EO were identified using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Estragole (47.15%) and Anethole (36.2%), appeared as predominant oxygenated monoterpenes compounds in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 1 Aug 2025 · 4,638 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcaricidal Activity of Azadirachta indica (Neem Tree) and Carica papaya (Papaya) Leaf Extracts against Rhipicephalus sanguineus (Dog Ticks) Using Spray MethodAlfredo Vita Corpuz, Carmela Montoya Florentino, Paul Erman Tabuloc Quilana et al.Ticks pose a serious threat to dogs, with synthetic acaricides leading to environmental impact and resistance concerns. While Azadirachta indica and Carica papaya have shown acaricidal potential against Rhipicephalus sanguineus, their efficacy against dog ticks has not been thoroughly investigated. This study determined the acaricidal activity of A. indica and C. papaya leaf extract against R. sanguineus, both individually and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 22 Apr 2025 · 8,409 accessesView PDF Cite
