This study was undertaken to determine the effects of Pyracantha fortuneana (Maxim.) Li polysaccharides (PFP) on antioxidant and immune functions in mice. Results from this study showed that PFP administration significantly increased thymus and spleen indices, promoted splenocyte proliferation and
To investigate the protective roles of pyracantha fortune fruit extract (PFE) on acute renal toxicity induced by cadmium chloride (CdCl2) in rats.Rats were pretreated with PFE and consecutively injected with CdCl2 (6.5 mg/kg) for 5 We have previously reported that polysaccharides extracted from Pyracantha fortuneana (Maxim.) Li (P. fortuneana) lowered the oxidative stress and inhibited the inflammatory responses in mice. Our present study aims to determine the effects of Selenium enriched P. fortuneana polysaccharides
Both selenium (Se) and polysaccharides from Pyracantha fortuneana (Maxim.) Li (PFPs) (P. fortuneana) have been reported to possess antioxidative and immuno-protective activities. Whether or not Se-containing polysaccharides (Se-PFPs) have synergistic effect of Se and polysaccharides on enhancing the
The evaluation of certain vascular plants that grow in the city of Madrid as biomonitors of SO(2) air pollution in urban environments has been carried out. Total concentration of sulphur in leaves of the chosen higher plants as well as other parameters in close relation to this contaminant (visible
