Rheum grows luxuriantly in a niche of low temperature (LT) at high altitudes in Himalayan belt. The plant is expected to harbor novel genes particularly for tolerance to LT. Using differential display, two cDNAs RaMPK1 and RaMPK2, showing homology to mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) were
Antioxidant enzymes play a significant role in eliminating toxic levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), generated during stress from living cells. In the present study, two different antioxidant enzymes namely copper-zinc superoxide dismutase derived from Potentilla astrisanguinea (PaSOD) and
Previous studies have shown that a peptide identical in sequence to the N-terminal of link protein can function as a growth factor and up-regulate proteoglycan synthesis by human articular cartilage in explant culture (L. A. McKenna et al., Arthritis Rheum. 41, 157-162, 1998). The present study has
Yin-Chen-Hao Tang (YCHT), consisting of Artemisia annua L., Gardenia jasminoides Ellis, and Rheum Palmatum L., has been used to relieve liver diseases in China for thousands of years. Several protective mechanisms of YCHT on liver injury have been investigated based on metabolomics, but the effects
