Sophoridine is a quinolizidine natural product of Sophora alopecuroides and has been applied for treatment of malignant trophoblastic tumors. Although characterized by low toxicity, the limited-spectrum antitumor activity hinders its further applications. 05D, a derivative of sophoridine, exhibits a better anticancer activity on diverse cancer cells, including solid tumors, and hematologic mali...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the amount of antioxidant, protective properties against DNA damage and antibacterial various pathogens after interaction Ag metal (Ag NPs/Sa) Sophora alopecuroides L. (S. L) plant seed, which is grown in Iğdır used treatment many diseases. The DPPH radical quenching activity NPs/Sa performed by using Blois method, prevention gel electrophoresis proper...

Spores from three bryophyte species with dwarf males (Homalothecium lutescens, Homalothecium sericeum and Isothecium alopecuroides) were sown on shoots of H. lutescens in vitro. After 10 months, presence and fertility of dwarf plants were scored. Spores of the more distantly related I. alopecuroides were unable to develop into dwarf plants on H. lutescens. Spores of both H. lutescens and H. ser...

Sophora flavescens is a Chinese medicinal herb used for the treatment of gastrointestinal hemorrhage, skin diseases, pyretic stranguria and viral hepatitis.
