This study aimed to evaluate the antifungal activity and potential synergistic of ten plant extracts (EXs) essential oils (EOs) obtained from same species, namely Agrimonia eupatoria L., Arctium lappa Arnica montana Bidens cernua Corylus avellana Echinacea purpurea L. (Moench), Menta piperita Trifolium pratense Syzygium aromaticum Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels were used. Three species genus C...

This study was performed to investigate the potential use of Saussurea lappa C.B. Clarke as a source of anti-oxidant agents. Various solvent fractionates from S. lappa C.B. Clarke roots were investigated for their anti-oxidative effectiveness. The contents of total phenolics and flavonoids were determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu's colorimetric and the aluminum nitrate method, respectively. Total...

Tumor cells generally proliferate rapidly and the demand for essential nutrients as well as oxygen always exceeds the supply due to the unregulated growth and the insufficient and inappropriate vascular supply. However, cancer cells show an inherent ability to tolerate extreme conditions, such as that characterized by low nutrient and oxygen supply, by modulating their energy metabolism. Thus, ...

Purpose: To verify the biological effects including anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effects, of fermented plant root extract mixtures that were measured <i>in vitro</i>.Method: select most effective extract, DPPH free radical scavenging measured. The mixture (MC) selected roots was with <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> (<i>S. cerevisiae</i>) (MF). Reverse tra...

GBS-01, an extract from the fruit of Arctium lappa L. is an orally administered drug rich in arctigenin, which has been reported to exert antitumor activity by attenuating the tolerance of cancer cells to glucose deprivation. We investigated the maximum tolerated dose of GBS-01 based on the frequency of the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and pharmacokinetics in patients with advanced pancreati...
