Anti-HIV-1 activity of Sargassum swartzii a marine brown alga
Methods The HIV inhibitory activity of aqueous and methanolic extracts of S. swartzii was determined on laboratory adapted strains of HIV-1 clades C and A by indirectly measuring reduction in HIV-1 gag p24 antigen levels and inhibition of HIV-1 RT activity in supernatants of virus infected donor peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) cultures grown in varying concentrations of the extracts. P...
متن کاملPharmacological, antioxidant, genotoxic studies and modulation of rat splenocyte functions by Cyperus rotundus extracts
BACKGROUND Cyperus rotundus Linn. (Cyperaceae) is a Tunisian medicinal plant used in folkloric (traditional) medicine to treat stomach disorders and inflammatory diseases. The present study explored the analgesic, anti-inflammatory and genotoxic activities of extracts from the aerial parts of C. rotundus.

متن کاملGenetic and neurochemical modulation of prefrontal cognitive functions in children.
OBJECTIVE The catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene affects how long dopamine acts in the prefrontal cortex. The Methionine polymorphism, which results in a slower breakdown of prefrontal dopamine, is associated with better adult prefrontal cortex function. The authors investigated the relation between the COMT gene polymorphism and cognitive performance in children. METHOD Children were t...
