Through a comprehensive regional systematic collection, we conducted genetic diversity analysis of wild red-fruited Lycium resources across the entire northwest region China. This study provides valuable basis for germplasm exploration and selection new varieties. Utilizing fluorescence capillary electrophoresis, carefully screened 16 pairs SSR primers exhibiting high polymorphism. Subsequently...

Lycium barbarum, a traditional Chinese anti-aging herb, has been shown to protect retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in a rat chronic ocular hypertension (COH) model. Here, we investigated the expression of endothelin-1 (ET-1), a strong vasoconstrictor, and its receptors, ETA and ETB, in the COH model and assessed the effects of Lycium barbarum on the ET-1 axis. Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) w...

Although Lycium barbarum (goji) and active compounds, Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP), have a high in vitro antioxidant score as determined by simple chemical reaction methods, their in vivo antioxidant effects in humans have not been extensively examined. After our earlier report that an LBP-standardized Lycium barbarum preparation (GoChi) helps prevent oxidant stress-related conditions ...

در بررسی­های فونستیک سال 2011 دامنه جنوبی رشته کوه­های زاگرس ایران، یک نمونه ماده از گونه Amphipyra kautti Hacker, 2002 متعلق به خانواده Noctuidae و زیرخانواده Amphipyrinae مناطق کوهستانی استان کهگیلویه بویراحمد جمع­ آوری شناسایی شد. این که برای اولین بار ایران گزارش می­شود، همراه با ویژگی­های افتراقی، تصویر الگوی بال اندام تناسلی شده ارائه است. اطلاعات مربوط دیگر همین جنس مطالعه نیز

The antioxidant activities of three popular ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine, namely Angelica sinensis (AS), Lycium barbarum (LB) and Poria cocos (PC) were evaluated in this study. The results showed that aqueous extracts of these crude drugs exhibited antioxidant activities in a concentration-dependent manner. All extracts displayed an inhibitory effect on FeCl2-ascorbic acid induce...
