Banana is an extensively cultivated plant worldwide, mainly for its fruit, while its ancillary product, the banana flower is consumed as a vegetable and is highly recommended for diabetics in the traditional Indian medicine system. This study is based on an investigation of the in vivo
Uncontrolled angiogenesis is directly associated with ocular diseases such as macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Implantable polymeric drug delivery systems have been proposed for intravitreal applications and in the present work, we evaluated the antiangiogenic potential of PLGA ocular
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to investigate the potential mechanism and value of lupeol in inhibiting high-glucose-induced apoptosis in rabbit nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs).
METHODS
NPCs were divided into four groups: control (CON), high glucose (HG), LUP, and HG + LUP. Viability, reactive oxygen
The aim of this study was to assess the anti-inflammatory efficacy of Boswellia frereana extracts in an in vitro model of cartilage degeneration and determine its potential as a therapy for treating osteoarthritis. Cartilage degradation was induced in vitro by treating explants with 5 ng/ml
Homology based PCRs with degenerate primers designed from the conserved sequences among the known oxidosqualene cylases (OSCs) have resulted in cloning of a triterpene synthase (KcMS) from the young roots of Kandelia candel (L.) Druce (Rhizophoraceae). KcMS consists of a 2286 bp open reading frame,
Beta-amyrin, a typical pentacyclic triterpene having an oleanane skeleton, is one of the most commonly occuring triterpenes in nature and is biosynthesized from (3S)-2,3-oxidosqualene. The enzyme, beta-amyrin synthase, catalyzing the cyclization of oxidosqualene into beta-amyrin, generates five
