The aim of this study was to overview its anti-breast cancer chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic effects. This review article is aimed to overview breast cancer chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic effects of Camell...

Protective effect of Camellia Sinensis L. leaf extract on lead acetate Induced nephrotoxicity in albino wistar rats were investigated by analyzing various biochemical parameters. Lead acetate induced kidney damage was well manifested by significant increase in renal parameters like urea, uric acid creatinine and serum electrolytes sodium, potassium,chloride, calcium, phosphorous and TBARS and d...

the present study appraised the hepatoprotective activity of aqueous extract of camellia sinensis leaves and its possible mechanism of action against carbon-tetrachloride-induced liver damage. liver damage was induced by   intraperitoneal administration of equal mixture of carbon tetrachloride   and olive oil (50 % v/v, 0.5 ml/kg ) in male wistar rats (150-220g) once daily for 7 days and the ex...

background: camellia sinensis and zataria multiflora as the potent antioxidants and anti-inflammations are crucial in the management of wound therapy. lipopolysaccharide (lps) was used for the proliferative potential on fibroblast cells and induction of inflammatory mediators. objective: we examined the effects of lps and herbal extracts combination in order to identify their mechanisms of acti...

BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies have established an association between dyslipidemias and atherosclerosis. Nutritional therapy is a key point in the prevention strategy for individuals who present with risk factors for atherosclerotic disease. OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of green tea (Camellia sinensis) in patients with dyslipidemias. METHODS The study included 33 patients aged...

Camellia sinensis (tea) is reported to have health benefits, including the building of healthy skin. This study evaluated the effects of topical application of Camellia sinensis extract on the rate of wound closure and the histology of wound area. A uniform area of 2.00 cm in diameter was excised from the neck of adult male Sprague Dawley rats. The animals were topically treated with 0.2 mL of ...

The present study provides evidence of the anti-asthmatic signaling activity of an aqueous fraction of green tea using specific in vitro and in vivo assays in an ovalbumin-induced asthmatic model. Mice sensitized to ovalbumin were orally administered an aqueous extract of Camellia sinensis. The lungs of these mice were then examined by hematoxylin and eosin staining and ELISA analysis to measur...

Synergistic combinations of antimicrobial agents with different mechanisms of action have been introduced as more successful strategies to combat infections involving multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria. In this study, we investigated synergistic antimicrobial activity of Camellia sinensis and Juglans regia which are commonly used plants with different antimicrobial agents. Antimicrobial suscept...
