Ilex x wandoensis and M. Kim hybrid nov. (IW) is a new variety formed through the natural hybridization of Ilex. cornuta Thunb Iles. integra Thunb. It was first discovered on Wando Island, Korea. IW has not been studied to date; we investigated industrial application potential leaf for time. We prepared hot water solvent extracts tested biological activity. extract confirmed have antioxidant an...

T« .HE PRINCIPAL effect of rutin when taken into the body is to restore the strength of the capillary walls when they become weakened. Rutin is a new, cheap, nonpoisonous drug that comes from buckwheat, tobacco, yellow pansies, and at least 35 other plants. Extensive clinical studies of its use in various disease conditions associated with hemorrhage or weak capillaries have demonstrated the va...

Although the pulmonary capillaries were discovered in 1661, the ultrastructure of the wall was not elucidated until 60 years ago. Electron micrographs then showed that only 0.2 μm of tissue separated the capillary endothelium from the alveolar space over much of the area. In retrospect this vanishingly small protective layer should have alerted physiologists to the potential fragility of the ca...

The pathway by which intravenously injected ferritin molecules move from the blood plasma across the capillary wall has been investigated in the muscle of the rat diaphragm. At 2 min after administration, the ferritin molecules are evenly distributed in high concentration in the blood plasma of capillaries and occur within vesicles along the blood front of the endothelium. At the 10-min time po...
