BACKGROUND In the setting of HIV and organ transplantation, opportunistic fungal infections have become a common cause of morbidity and mortality. Thus antifungal therapy is playing a greater role in health care. Traditional plants are a valuable source of novel antifungals. OBJECTIVE To assess in

The complexity of ecological conditions in urban areas imposes the plant species need for the development of various biochemical and physiological adaptive strategies. The aim of our research was to examine the antioxidative and antifungal metabolism of species Pinus nigra, Picea omorika, Tilia

Background: Acacetin is a di-hydroxy and mono-methoxy flavone present in various plants, including black locust, Damiana, Silver birch. Literature information revealed that acacetin exhibits an array of pharmacological potential including

A chemical investigation of the n-butanol fraction of the inner bark of Betula platyphylla led to the isolation of seven diarylhepanoids, (-)-centrolobol (1), aceroside VII (2), aceroside VIII (3), (3R)-1,7-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-heptanol-3-O-[2,6-bis-O-(β-D-apiofuranosyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside (4),

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease induced by cholinergic neuron damage or amyloid-beta aggregation in the basal forebrain region and resulting in cognitive disorder. We previously reported on the neuroprotective effects of Betula platyphylla bark (BPB) in an

A simple and rapid method using high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC), along with bioassay-guided fractionation based on the anti-proliferative activity against renal and colon cancer cells, has been developed for the preparative separation of aceroside VIII (1) and platyphylloside (2)

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely associated with amyloid β (Aβ)-induced neurotoxicity and oxidative stress in the brain. Betula platyphylla, which has been used to treat various oxidative-stressed related diseases, has recently received attention for its preventive activity on age-related

BACKGROUND Antiacetylcholinesterase (AChE) drugs have been a main therapeutic treatment for Alzheimer's disease because increased AChE levels play a key role in reducing neurotransmission. OBJECTIVE Extracts from 35 Korean plants were selected and screened for antioxidant and anti-cholinesterase

OBJECTIVE Betulin (BT) is an abundant triterpene found predominantly in the bark of Himalayan birch. It is difficult to deliver it in vivo because of its low aqueous solubility. We have therefore developed novel formulations of BT for improving its solubility, bioavailability and therapeutic

Betula utilis, also known as Himalayan silver birch has been used as a traditional medicine for many health ailments like inflammatation, HIV, renal and bladder disorders as well as many cancers from ages. Here, we performed bio-guided fractionation of Betula utilis Bark (BUB), in which it was

We tested whether the ectomycorrhizal (ECM) infection level of roots of silver birch (Betula pendula) affects performance of above-ground insect herbivores by increasing available plant biomass, by enhancing availability of nutrients, or by modifying concentration of defense compounds, i.e.,

To investigate the relationship of the major allergens of birch (Bet v I), alder (Aln g I), hazel (Cor a I), and hornbeam (Car b I) at the nucleic acid level, a cDNA clone coding for the complete Bet v I protein was used for Northern and Southern blot experiments. RNAs were isolated from pollen of

Evidence from tropical forests suggests understory habitats are associated with a high risk of disease, which may prevent the establishment of vulnerable tree species; in contrast, canopy gaps can act as refuges from these pathogens. However, few studies have investigated the impacts of pathogens on

The identification of new isoform-specific histone deacetylase inhibitors is important for revealing the biological functions of individual histone deacetylase and for determining their potential use as therapeutic agents. Among the 11 zinc-dependent histone deacetylases that have been identified in
