Background: Pinus eldarica is a widely growing pine in Iran consisting of biologically active constituents with antioxidant properties. This study investigates the effect of hydroalcoholic extract of P. eldarica bark against oxidative damage induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods: The total phenolic content of p. eldarica extract was dete...

Introduction Over the last decades, considerable levels of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) have been characterized in the living environment. Recent epidemiological studies on occupational and residential exposure to EMF have shown that 50/60 Hz fields, known as extremely low frequencies (ELF), have various biological effects, such as angiogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the effect of en...

objective: echium amoenum fisch. & c.a. mey. is used for the treatment of various diseases in traditional medicine. this plant is a major source of anthocyanins with beneficial cardiovascular properties such as anti-atherosclerotic and antihypertensive effects. in the present study, the protective and antioxidant effects of anthocyanin-rich e. amoenum extract were evaluated on human vascular en...

Marine-based biomolecules are emerging metabolites that have gained attention for developing novel biomaterials, drugs, and pharmaceutical in vitro platforms. Here, we developed a 3D engineered neural co-culture model via prototyped sliding frame-platform multi-step UV lithography investigated the neurovascular potential of citreohybridonol neuroblastoma treatment. Citreohybridonol was isolated...

How the seeds of Delphinium staphisagria promote hair growth in humans is yet to be discovered. This lack of information leads us to the investigation of hair promoting effects of seeds of Delphinium staphisagria in vitro. Extract prepared from the Seed of Delphinium staphisagria (ESDS) - traditionally used for hair loss treatment - was selected and tested for the cytotoxic and angiogenic poten...

angiogenesis which is the recruitment of new blood vessels is a critical process in several chronic diseases and is an essential component of tumor or cancer progression. development of therapies aimed at inhibiting the angiogenesis, in combination with classical anti-cancer therapies, is among the most intensively studied approaches to treat the cancer. in this study the effect of chlordiazepo...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: alzheimer's disease (ad) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in which endothelial cell (ec) can be affected. in brain, functional changes in ecs contribute to reductions in resting blood flow. furthermore, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ace-i) have beneficial effects on endothelial dysfunction. this is the first study t...

Though dietary azuki bean (Vigna angularis) seed containing antioxidant proanthocyanidins was known to have multibiological activities including antioxidant, hypotensive, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activities, the antiangiogenic activity of ethanol extract of Vigna angularis (EVA) was never reported so far. In the present study, the antiangiogenic mechanism of EVA was examined in h...
