Ipomoea obscura (L) is a widely used medicinal plant. In this study, we investigated its anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor effect using in vitro and in vivo models. Methanolic extract of I. obsucra (10 mg/kg b.wt) was given interaperitoneally before inducing inflammation (both acute and chronic) and
BACKGROUND
The incidence of skin cancers is rising gradually. The treatment of melanoma is also necessary to prevent the spread of cancer to other body organs. Scientific literatures have not documented any evidence of the antitumor potential of Ipomoea pes-caprae on melanoma.

OBJECTIVE
Three fractions (SM, SM-A, SM-B) were prepared from different polarity parts of Ipomoea batatas Lam. (cv.simon) leaves and the anti-tumor potency as well as the dose-response relations were evaluated.
METHODS
The anti-tumor activities of fraction SM, SM-A or SM-B were screened by MTS in
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the antitumor effect and estimate the toxicity of Ipomoea Batatas Poir Cv anthocyanins.
METHODS
Mice sarcinoma S180 and mice liver cancer H22 were administered with positive Ftorafur and different dose of Ipomoea Batatas Poir Cv anthocyanins by pouring into the stomach. The
Purple-fleshed sweet potato (PFSP) (Ipomoea batatas L. Lam) has been known to possess high amount of anthocyanins which contribute to its antioxidant activity. However, a few reports are available concerning its anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. In this study, PFSP "Tainung 73," which is
A comparative study was done on the production of 4-ipomeanol from root tubers of Ipomoea batatas and its rhizogenic callus. Best callusing response was obtained on MS medium supplemented with 11 μM NAA (α-Naphthaleneacetic acid) and 1 μM KIN (Kinetin). Effect of various elicitors (Fusarium solani,
Phytomedicines are increasingly being established in modern medical science. The shrub Ipomoea carnea has been used traditionally for thousands of years. However, there are few scientific studies on this medicinal plant, and most of the information are scattered. In this review, we have summarized
Immunosuppressive drugs can induce the development of malformations in fetuses of mothers exposed to them, possibly affecting the placental function directly or by crossing the placenta to enter fetal circulation. However, activation of the maternal immune system with well-known immunomodulator
In the search for possible new anti-cancer agents, we investigated the effects of 75 aqueous and methanol extracts from 41 Argentinean plant species. The effect in cell growth was evaluated in the LM2 mammary adenocarcinoma cells. In a second stage, the highly active selected extracts were assayed
The immune status of the host plays a crucial role in controling the process of carcinogenesis. General or selective activation of various immunocompetent cells and their secretory function to maintain a healthy immune status may help in cancer prophylaxis, as well as therapy. The present study
Two new resin glycosides, ipomeolides A (1) and B (2), both with an unusual nonlinear heteropentasaccharide core, along with five known compounds were isolated from the n-hexane/CHCl3 (1:1) extract of the aerial parts of Ipomoea pes-caprae. Ipomeolides A (1) and B (2) are macrolactone
Multidrug resistance is the expression of one or more efflux pumps, such as P-glycoprotein, and is a major obstacle in cancer therapy. The use of new potent and noncytotoxic efflux pump modulators, coadministered with antineoplastic agents, is an alternative approach for increasing the success rate
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L. Lam.), known as "Shakarqandi" in Pakistan, is an imperative root vegetable with large size, traditionally used as aphrodisiac, antiprostatic, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, cardiotonic, and anticancer agent. Present study was conducted to gauge
BACKGROUND
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is one of the most important consumed crops in many parts of the world because of its economic importance and content of health-promoting phytochemicals.
METHODS
With the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) as our model, we investigated the exogenous
The shortcomings of the currently available anti-breast cancer agents compel the development of the safer targeted drug delivery for the treatment of breast cancer. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the anti-breast cancer potential of Ipomoea turpethum extract loaded nanoparticles
