The absorption properties, mechanism of action, and structure-property relationship of three phenolic acids isolated from the flowers of Trollius chinensis Bunge, namely, proglobeflowery acid (PA), globeflowery acid (GA) and trolloside (TS), were investigated using the human Caco-2 cell monolayer model. The results showed that these three phenolic acids were transported across the Caco-2 cell m...

studies on contents of phenolic compounds and diterpenes in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge root during the vegetation period were carried out. In Polish climate and soil condition, the tanshinone II a occurred as the dominant compound from diterpenes group. obtained results show that the most profitable period for harvesting Salvia miltiorrhiza raw material is fructification stage. however, it is ve...

Five halophytic plant species, Suaeda maritima, Limonium tetragonum, Suaeda australis, Phragmites australis, and Suaeda glauca Bunge, which are native to the Muan salt marsh of South Korea, were examined for fungal endophytes by sequencing the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region containing ITS1, 5.8S rRNA, and ITS2. In total, 160 endophytic fungal strains were isolated and identified from ...

AIMS Sedum sarmentosum Bunge, a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, has a wide range of clinical effects, including anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, and anti-cancer properties. In this study, we determined whether S. sarmentosum Bunge Extract (SSBE) has anti-fibrotic effects on renal tissues. MAIN METHODS We investigated the effects of SSBE on aristolochic acid (AA)-induced injury to renal...

To understand how we use rules to guide our behavior, it is critical to learn more about how we select responses on the basis of associations retrieved from long-term memory and held online in working memory. Rules, or prescribed guide(s) for conduct or action (Merriam-Webster Dictionary, 1974), are a particularly interesting class of associations because they link memory and action. We previou...

Plant metabonomic analysis is essential for understanding plant systems responses to osmotic stresses. To understand the comprehensive metabolic responses of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (SMB) to continuous and exhaustive water depletion, we characterized the SMB metabonomic variations induced by three different drying processes using the combined NMR and LC-DAD-MS method. NMR results showed that ...

Contribution des explorateurs français à l'étude de la flore l'Asie Centrale: les collections d'herbier Guillaume Capus (1857-1931). Les explorations en Asie Centrale entre 1880 et 1887 ont notamment abouti une collection remarquable 3000 spécimens d'herbiers, toujours conservés dans l'Herbier Paris (France). récoltes sa première exploration été rapidement déterminées par un autre botaniste fra...
