There are considerable efforts to identify naturally occurring substances as new drugs in cancer therapy. Many components of medicinal plants have been identified that possess substantial anticancerous properties. This prompted us to investigate the effect of Scrophularia striata (an Iranian species belonging to the Scrophulariace family) extract on the growth of astrocyte cancer cell line (132...

Negative or positive feedback between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and host plants can contribute to plant species interactions, but how this feedback affects plant invasion or resistance to invasion is not well known. Here we tested how alterations in AMF community induced by an invasive plant species generate feedback to the invasive plant itself and affect subsequent interactions betwe...

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect different feeding on survival rate and growth snakehead fish (Channa striata) larvae. This research conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 treatments replications. treatment consisted A artificial PF 0, B Daphnia C silk worms. results showed that provision types feed had significant survival, absolute weight growth, dail...

An experiment was conducted to investigate the comparative effect of Scrophularia striata, Ferulago angulata, and virginiamycin (VM) on performance, intestinal microbial population, immune response, and blood constituents of broilers. A total of 300 Ross 308 male broiler chickens were randomly assigned to 5 treatments, with 5 replicates/treatment (10 chickens/pen). Birds were fed either a corn-...

KEY LEARNING POINTS MS is defined as a single or multiple black/brown pigmentation bands arranged lengthwise along the nail unit. Physiological MS is more commonly seen in darker phototype individuals and is quite unusual in fair-skinned ethnic groups. MS is the result of increased melanin production by nail matrix melanocytes, which produces a visible pigmentation band in the nail plate. Disti...

Procedures for asymbiotic germination and seedling development under in vitro ex conditions were investigated Bletilla striata. Five different media (½ P6668 ¬Phytamax Orchid Maintenance Media, ½ Media with coconut water, P723 PhytoTechnology Seed Sowing MS media) culture sphagnum moss examined their effectiveness 8 weeks on seed of B. Germination occurred all media, however, the best rate was ...

AIM To evaluate and compare the effect of combined transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and arterial administration of Bletilla striata (a Chinese traditional medicine against liver tumor) versus TACE alone for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in ACI rats. METHODS Subcapsular implantation of a solid Morris hepatoma 3 924A (2 mm3) in the liver was carried out in 30 male ACI ra...

A girl aged three years was first seen on account of nasal obstruction and recurring bronchitis. Birth had been difficult because of a large head, and delivery was completed with the aid of forceps. The neonatal period was stormy ; she had pneumonia and feeding was difficult because of nasal obstruction. Some improvement took place after the first month, but the feeding difficulty persisted and...
