Work done has demonstrated A. muricata to be effective in treating carbon tetrachloride-and acetaminophen-induced hepatic damage, hepatic jaundice and toxicologically safe up to 1000 mg kg-1 in animals. Current study evaluated the bilirubin-lowering potential of A. muricata aqueous extract in phenylhydrazine-(40 mg kg-1) induced jaundice … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 23 May 2012 · 12,778 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordIllumina-Based De Novo Transcriptome Analysis and Identifications of Genes Involved in the Monolignol Biosynthesis Pathway in Acacia koaKazue Ishihara, Eric K.W. Lee, Isabel Rushanaedy, Dulal BorthakurAcacia koa is a leguminous timber tree endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. For breeding projects involved in improving wood quality of A. koa, understanding of genes influencing wood quality is crucial. Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify A. koa genes in the monolignol biosynthesis pathway, which is involved in wood formation and development. In this study, whole … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 6 Aug 2015 · 11,040 accessesView PDF Cite
