Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Fig (Ficus carica) Leaf Extract on the Secretion and Content of Cholesterol in Hepg2 CellAhmad Fatemi, Ali Rasouli, Farzad AsadiTraditional medicines remain a source of potential for discovering of new compounds with valuable pharmacological activities. Leaves of Ficus carica were dried, powdered and extracted using methanol (ME).An aliquot of ME was dried and re-extracted by water:chloroform and the other aliquot by water: peteruleum ether. Effect of aqueous fractions of the former (ACR; 0.08, 0.1 and 0.13 mg dL-1), the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part VI: in vitro Vasorelaxant EffectN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThe aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro vasorelaxanteffect of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) at a dose of 10 mg mL-1. Aortic rings isolated from normal wistar rats were used. The addition of CSAE during the plateau phase of contraction, induced by noradrenaline and KCl, produced a rapid relaxation. Incubation of aortic ring with CSAE during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiovascular Effect of Capapris spinosa Aqueous Extract in Rats. Part II: Furosemide-like Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract in Normal RatsN.A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, T. Sulpice, T. M. EddouksThe purpose of this study was to examine the diuretic effect of the aqueous extract of Capparis spinosa (Cs) at a dose of 500 mg kg-1 h-1 in normal rats. The aqueous extract was administred intravenously and the diuresis was followed within four hours after starting the treatment. Intravenous administration of aqueous Cs extract produced a significant increase on diuresis … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part III: Antihypertensive Effect in Spontaneously Hypertensive RatsZeggwagh Naoufel Ali, Mohamed Eddouks, Jean Baptiste Michel et al.This study aims to evaluate the hypotensive activity of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) in spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats. CSAE was lyophilised and administrated daily at a dose of 150 mg kg-1 for 20 days. CSAE administration produced a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure after eight days of oral administration (p 0.05) after 20 days of oral administration. We … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 9,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAqueous Extract of Inonotus bliquus (Fr.) Pilat (Hymenochaetaceae) Significantly Inhibits the Growth of Sarcoma 180 by Inducing ApoptosisCaifa Chen, Weifa Zheng, Xiaowen Gao et al.Inonotus obliquus (Fr.) Pilat (Hymenochaetaceae) has been widely used as a folk medicine to treat various cancers in Russia, Poland and most of Baltic countries for literally more than four centuries. However, in spite of its therapeutic significance for cancers, this fungus has not been studied systematically for the mechanisms of antitumor activity. In this study, we report the effects … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 21,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroduction of Three Complementary Technologies into Clinical Medicine: Development of New Diagnostic and Prognostic ParametersGernot P. Tilz, Marco Wiltgen, Ulrike Demel et al.Molecular medicine leads us to understand some diseases at the molecular level. Examples are the analysis of immune complexes and receptor - anti receptor compounds used in clinical medicine. Structural changes of some serum proteins occur in inflammation, neoplasie and autoimmunity. The detection and analysis of such structural modifications may offer a new field for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapy … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Application of Electrochemical Impedance Techniques in Analyzing the AC Response of Some Two-electron Transfer Dye SystemsFarouk RashwanThe Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopic techniques (EIS) were used to investigate the behavior of some dye compounds (quinoid systems) characterized with 2e-transfer processes. For this purpose, Alizarin Red S (ARS), Alizarin Cyanine (AC), Alizarin Viridin (AV) and carminic acid were chosen for the measurements. The EIS experiments were performed using a small AC amplitude (10 mV p-p) in addition to a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectrochemical Characteristics of Some Purpurins in Aqueous and Nonaqueous SolutionsFarouk A. Rashwan, Hossnia S. Mohran, Ahmed A. El-SamahyThe Electrochemical Impedance Technique (EIS) and the Cyclic Voltammetric method (CV) were used to investigate the behavior of purpurin (P), Anthrapurpurin (AP) and Benzopurpurin (BP) in aqueous and in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) media. In the CV experiments, both the radical and the dianion of these substances were assumed to form of limited stability due to chemical protonation. In case of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCell Surface Receptor Theory of Disease Infectivity; Body's Defence and Normal Body Functioning in Living ThingsUtoh-Nedosa, Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: A study of the pattern of Candida spp. infection of the human body and the mode and pattern of reaction of the human body to this infection showed that disease infectivity and self healing by plants followed the same procedures and patterns. Approach: A comparism of these procedures and patterns of natural self- healing of disease infection by … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Oct 2011 · 7,240 accessesView PDFCite
