Chenopodium botrys L. is native to Europe and Asia and adventive in much of North America. The plant has been used traditionally for medicinal purposes; generally, these therapeutic uses and health benefits of C. botrys are largely based on folklore rather than on scientific substantiation, making it a good candidate to gather documentations, including the phytochemical content, in vitro experi...

Background: Chenopodium botrys L. is local to Europe and Asia established in North America. The plant commonly used for the treatment of disease. medicinal use mainly due mythology rather than scientific proof. Objectives: To evaluate hepatoprotective potential methanolic aqueous extract against lead-induced toxicity. Materials Methods: aerial parts were extracted by continuous hot extraction p...

Conducting cell apoptosis pathways is a novel strategy in cancer treatment. This study aimed to explain that C. botrys essential oil could induce apoptosis and arrest the cell cycle in HeLa cells. Cytotoxic and apoptogenic effects of the essential oil of Jerusalem-oak (Chenopodium botrys L.), which was obtained from the aerial parts of the plant, were evaluated in HeLa cells. Cell viability was...

The chemotaxonomic significance of ergastic substances that are aligned systematically to the Amaranthaceae-Chenopodiaceae group and their prospective applications, such as the use of its starch for food, health and industrial uses, were assessed in the present study employing species from four genera: Amaranthus (Amaranthaceae), Chenopodium, Atriplex and Suaeda (Chenopodiaceae). Alkaloids, fat...

The essential oil obtained from the aerial part of Chenopodium botrys plant by steam distillation was obtained. remaining aqueous extracted with solvent ethylacetate and n-butanol, respectively. In end, five extracts were obtained: (CB-EO), untreated extract (CB-F), (CB-EA), n-butanol (CB-nBu) processed (CB-L). effects on both insecticidal (against Sitophilus granarius Tribolium castaneum) enzy...
