Acid phosphatase (ACP) plays an important role in regulating phosphate nutrition in plants. Herein, for the first time, a novel ACP from Opuntia megacantha Salm-Dyck cladodes was purified to homogeneity and biochemically characterized. Specific activity of 8.78 U/mg was obtained with 11.29-fold
Aloe vera gel consists of the clear gel from the center of fresh leaves of Aloe vera and related aloes. Active ingredients include mono- and polysaccharides (e.g., acemannan, glucomannan), allantoin, enzymes (e.g., cyclooxygenase, amylase, lipase, alkaline phosphatase, carboxypeptidase), and
This original study investigates the role of Opuntia ficus indica (cactus) cladodes extract against liver damage induced in male SWISS mice by an organophosphorous insecticide, the chlorpyrifos (CPF). Liver damage was evaluated by the measure of its weight and the quantification of some biochemical
The Drosophila cactus and dorsal proteins are required for the development of embryonic dorso-ventral polarity and probably also for the innate immune response of the insect. Like their mammalian counterparts (the cytoplasmic anchor protein I kappa B and the rel/NF kappa B transcription factors)
The Drosophila Rel transcription factor Dorsal and its inhibitor Cactus participate in a signal transduction pathway involved in several biologic processes, including embryonic pattern formation, immunity, and muscle development. In contrast with embryonic muscle, where Dorsal is reportedly absent,
BACKGROUND
Prickly pear cactus grown in Korea (Opuntia ficus-indica Mill, KC) and Buchema (Dioscorea nipponica Makino, B) have been traditionally used in East Asia and South America to treat various metabolic diseases. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the extracts of KC, B, and
BACKGROUND
Cactus polysaccharides are the active components of Opuntia dillenii which have been used extensively in folk medicine. In this study, we investigate the anti-tumor effect of cactus polysaccharides on lung squamous carcinoma cells SK-MES-1.
METHODS
The inhibitory effect of Cactus
BACKGROUND
Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill. (Castaceae) (cactus) is used in Tunisian medicine for the treatment of various diseases.
OBJECTIVE
This study determines phytochemical composition of cactus cladode extract (CCE). It also investigates antioxidant activity and hepatoprotective potential of
