Kiwifruit is known to contain considerable amount of antioxidative phenolics. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antioxidative, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of Actinidia eriantha cv. Bidan and A. deliciosa cv. Hayward kiwifruits. The antioxidant capacity of kiwifruit
The present study evaluated the total phenolic and flavonoid contents as well as total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of three cultivars of Actinidia arguta Planch. kiwi berries; cv. Mansoo (Mansoo), cv. Chiak (Chiak), and cv. Haeyeon (Haeyeon). In addition, the anti-inflammatory effects of the three
The inflammatory response protects our body from bacteria and tumors, but chronic inflammation driven by the persistent activation of macrophages can lead to serious adverse effects including gastrointestinal problems, cardiac disorders, and a sore throat. Part of the ongoing research is focused on
Kiwifruit (Actinidia) is a common fruit cultivated in many countries. Actinidia deliciosa and A. chinensis are two commercially important kiwifruit species. Over 70,000 ha are grown annually in China. In 2012, a leaf spot disease of A. chinensis was observed in several orchards in Leye County
In the spring of 2010, in commercial orchards located in the Prefecture of Pieria in northern Greece, wilted shoots of kiwifruit cv. Hayward were observed. Blighted shoots took on a distinct dark color. Isolations from the lower margins of the cankers were made by plating sodium-hypochlorite-treated
The protective activity of the total saponins from Actinidia valvata Dunn root (TSAV) was studied against carbon-tetrachloride- (CCl(4)-) induced acute liver injury in mice. Mice were orally administered TSAV (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg) for five days and then given CCl(4). TSAV pretreatment
Actinidia callosa var. ephippioides (ACE) has been widely used to treat anti-pyretic, antinociceptive, anti-inflammation, abdominal pain and fever in Taiwan. This study aims to determine the mechanism of anti-inflammatory activities of ethyl acetate fraction of ACE (EA-ACE) using a model of
Gentamicin is a potent aminoglycoside antibiotic, but the risk of nephrotoxicity limits its prolonged use. The toxicity of gentamicin is believed to result from oxidative stress, a condition that could be counteracted by dietary antioxidants. This study determines the possible renoprotective effects
Kiwi fruit (Actinidia chinensis Planch.) seeds, present as a by-product in the food and pharmaceutical industries, remain underutilized. In this study the extraction conditions for the maximum recovery of total phenolic content (TPC) with high DPPH scavenging capacities (DPPHsc) were analyzed for
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) isolated from Actinidia polygama fruits exhibits potent anti-inflammatory activity with an unknown mechanism. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of ALA on pharmacological and biochemical actions in inflammation, we examined the effect of ALA on lipopolysaccharide
OBJECTIVE
In kiwifruit (Actinidia), the number of nodes per shoot is highly variable and is influenced by genotype and environmental conditions. To understand this developmental plasticity, three key processes were studied: organogenesis by the shoot apical meristem during shoot growth; expansion of
OBJECTIVE
To observe the inhibitory effect of extract from Actinidia argutaor on in vivo and in vitro carcinomata, and explore its mechanism.
METHODS
The in vivo S180 and H22 model were used to observe the effect of A. argutaor on inhibitory rate of carcinomata, organ relative weight of spleen and
In 1999 and 2000, decay of floral buds of Actinidia deliciosa was observed in plantations in the Principality of Asturias, Spain. Bud decay led to a decrease (up to 40%) in the production of kiwifruit. Floral buds with symptoms of browning and necrosis were collected from different areas
During 2000 and 2001, a wood discoloration and decay of 10- to 12-year-old kiwifruit vines (Actinidia deliciosa (Chev.) Liang & Ferguson) was observed in vineyards in all major kiwifruit-growing areas of Greece. Leaves became chlorotic or necrotic, dry, and abscised prematurely. Fruits dropped
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae is the causal agent of bacterial canker of green-fleshed kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) and yellow-fleshed kiwifruit (A. chinensis). A recent, sudden, re-emerging wave of this disease has occurred, almost contemporaneously, in all of the main areas of kiwifruit
