phlebodium salicifolium/inflammation

The immunomodulatory activity of a standardized water soluble fraction of the fern Phlebodium decumanum (EXPLY-37) previously shown to have "in vivo" anti-inflammatory activity was analyzed "in vitro". This extract inhibited tumor necrosis factor (TNF) production by macrophages activated with

Strenuous exercise induces muscle damage due to a highly increased generation of free radicals and inflammatory response and therefore, in this type of exercise, it is important to reduce both oxidative stress and inflammation, at least their negative aspects. The purpose of this study was

BACKGROUND Intense physical exercise provoke muscle damage, that in sedentary people can increase cardiovascular risk. Phlebodium decumanum (PD) has shown to have immunomodulator effects in models of moderate intense physical activities in well conditioned groups. To evaluate the PD effects during

BACKGROUND Physical training programmes are based on provoking transitory states of fatigue in order to induce super compensation by the biological systems involved in the activity, in order to improve the athlete's medium-long term performance. The administration of nutritional supplements with

Exercise training is considered a good model to provoke different degrees of immune dysfunction affecting physical performance and some physiological responses related to oxidative stress and low grade inflammation. Phlebodium decumanum is a polypodiaceae may induce shown immunomodulating effects,

Many traditional healing plants successfully passed several hundred years of empirical testing against specific diseases and thereby demonstrating that they are well tolerated in humans. Although quite a few ethno-pharmacological plants are applied against a variety of conditions there are still

Control of Strongyloides stercoralis infection is based on antihelminthic treatment. However, the development of an efficient vaccine is an important goal for more effectively managing this disease. Different Strongyloides spp. antigen preparations have been previously tested but without
