The protective effect of flavonoids extracted from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi on cerebral ischemia injury has been explored in experimental animals. Scutellaria flavonoid (SF) could significantly prolong gasping time (prolonged ratio, 23.79%) and survival time after carotid artery occlusion, and decrease attenuate malondialdehyde (MDA) content in damaged brain tissues from 118.56+/-47.95 nm...

Background Botanical supplements with flavonoids possess the ability to reduce inflammatory markers such as CRP, IL-6, and TNF-a. Also, they could potentially help reduce sugarinduced weight gain and facilitate weight loss. Diafin is a non-stimulant, botanical, weight loss product created from a blend of standardized Free-B-ring flavonoids and flavans from two plant extracts isolated from the S...

Introduction The 'Iuteo-placental shift' is defined here as a shift in progesterone synthesis during pregnancy from the corpus luteum to the placenta. Distinct changes in the regulation of uterine function follow. It is predicted that this shift in the anatomical site ofhormone support, from an extrato an intra-uterine location, changes the distribution of progesterone, the character of the myo...
