Metagenomics can be used to identify potential biocontrol agents for invasive species and was used here to identify candidate species for biocontrol of an invasive club moss in New Zealand. Profiles were obtained for Selaginella kraussiana collected from nine geographically disjunct locations
UNASSIGNED
Selaginella bryopteris L. (family: Selaginaceae), is often used in traditional Indian systems of medicine for the prevention and cure of several disorders and for the treatment of patient with spermatorrhoea, venereal disease, constipation, colitis, urinary tract infections, fever,
OBJECTIVE
The present study was designed to investigate the effects of the EtOH and H(2)O extracts of Selaginella tamariscina (Beauv.) Spring on hyperglycemia in diabetic rats and HepG2 cells, and to confirm the active fractions of EtOH extract in HepG2 cells.
METHODS
HepG2 cells and type II
Selaginella tamariscina (S. tamariscina) (Beauv.) Spring (Selaginellaceae) has been used in oriental medicine for the treatment of dysmenorrhea, chronic hepatitis, hyperglycemia, amenorrhea, hematuria, prolapse of the anus and metrorrhagia. In the present study, we isolated two strong
Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a well-known and important step in metastasis and thus can be a key target in cancer treatment. Here, we tested the EMT inhibitory actions of Selaginella tamariscina and its active component, amentoflavone (AF). EMT was examined in vitro using wound-healing
Some flavonoids have been shown to exhibit good antioxidant activity and protect mice from damage induced by radiation. Amentoflavone (AMF), a biflavonoid derived from the traditional herb-Selaginella tamariscina, has been reported to have antioxidant properties. The protective effects and mechanism
Cell-cell communication plays a crucial role in plant growth and development and relies to a large extent on peptide ligand-receptor kinase signaling mechanisms. The CRINKLY4 (CR4) family of receptor-like kinases is involved in a wide range of developmental processes in plants, including mediating
In the hope of identifying agents of therapeutic value in immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgA-N), we tested crude methanol extracts of 15 Chinese herbs for their effect on human mesangial cel proliferation in vitro. The results indicated that 7 out of the 15 crude extracts inhibited human mesangial
