Antinociceptive activity of Ricinus communis L. leaves.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the antinociceptive activity of the methanol extract of Ricinus communis leaves (MRCL). METHODS Antinociceptive activity was evaluated using acetic acid induced writhing test, formalin induced paw licking and tail immersion method in mice at doses of 100, 125 and 150 mg/kg bw. RESULTS The results indicated that MRCL exhibited considerable antinociceptive activity again...
متن کاملNitrate reductases from leaves of Ricinus (Ricinus communis L.) and spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) have different regulatory properties.
The activity of nitrate reductase (+Mg(2+), NR(act)) in illuminated leaves from spinach, barley and pea was 50-80% of the maximum activity (+EDTA, NR(max)). However, NR from leaves of Ricinus communis L. had a 10-fold lower NR(act), while NR(max) was similar to that in spinach leaves. The low NR(act) of Ricinus was independent of day-time and nitrate nutrition, and varied only slightly with lea...
متن کاملSynthase Gene from Ricinus communis L
1 L-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate synthase (EC 5.5.1.4, MIPS), an evolutionarily conserved enzyme protein, catalyzes the conversion of D-glucose-6-phosphate into 1 L-myo-inositol-1-phosphate (MIP), which is the fi rst and rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of all inositol-containing compounds (Ray Chaudhuri et al., 1997; Abid et al., 2009). MIPS is found in diverse organisms, both eukaryotic and...
متن کاملLipolytic activity of ricin from Ricinus sanguineus and Ricinus communis on neutral lipids.
The present study was carried out with a view of determining ricin lipolytic activity on neutral lipids in emulsion and in a membrane-like model. Using 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol tributyrate (BAL-TC(4)) as substrate, the lipolytic activity of ricin was found to be proportional to ricin and substrate concentrations, with an apparent K(m) (K(m,app)) of 2.4 mM, a k(cat) of 200 min(-1) and a specifi...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of castor (Ricinus communis L.) using ISSR markers
Castor (Ricinus communis L.) is one of the most ancient medicinal oil crops in the world. It has been vastly distributed in different parts of Iran. In the present study, the inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to evaluate the molecular genetic diversity among and within 12 castor accessions collected from 7 regions of Iran. Totally, 16 ISSR primers amplified 166 loci...
