hordeum parodii/neoplasms

Cancer remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, therefore food products are being investigated for potential prevention or treatment strategies. The ingredient, barley grass extract (Hordeum vulgare L.; Bex) is used to prevent or ameliorate various types of disease. In cancer, Bex has been

A water-soluble polysaccharide (BP-1) was obtained from highland barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) by hot water extraction and purification of sepharose column chromatography. BP-1 had an average molecular weight of about 6.7×104Da and was composed of glucose (Glc), xylose (Xyl), arabinose (Ara) and

A 9-year-old boy was referred to the Oncology Department because of a thoracic soft-tissue mass thought to be a chest wall tumour. He had a history of grass inflorescence (Hordeum murinum) aspiration 2 weeks prior to this admission. On physical examination a tender soft-tissue mass under the right

Introduction and objective. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is known as a rich source of different bioactive compounds. At present, considerable attention of researchers is focused on young barley grass. It can be a good source of dietary minerals, vitamins, carbohydrates, amino acids, phenolic

The use of cereal microgreens is increasing because of increased consumer's interest in healthier products. Chlorophyll (Chl) and Carotenoids (Car) are suggested to correlate with health promoting components like phenolics and antioxidant potential of the plant-part. They also play role against

BACKGROUND Recently, there has been renewed interest in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. Poaceae) as a functional food and for its medicinal properties. OBJECTIVE This study examines the anti-inflammatory potential of the active fractions of barley and the mechanisms involved. METHODS The macrophages were

This paper reports the characterization and potential antioxidant activity of β-D-glucan isolated from barley treated with γ-rays. The β-D-glucan was irradiated with 0, 2, 4 and 8 kGy by gamma ray. The samples were characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, gel permeation

Putrescine, spermidine, spermine and two unknowns designated as A and B were detected in first seedling leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var. Wolfe). The levels of these polyamines in first seedling leaves from 4-day-old barley plants grown in darkness or in light were comparable and did not

Gramine, a natural indole alkaloid found in Hordeum vulgare has been possesses anti-mutagenic properties. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of gramine on inflammation and proliferation in 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene(DMBA)-induced hamster buccal pouch (HBP) carcinogenesis.

β-glucans have been considered the major bioactive components in Qingke (Tibetan hulless barley). However, the structure⁻function relationships of β-glucans from Qingke have seldom been investigated. Whether the bioactivities of Qingke β-glucans are closely correlated to their molecular weights

A new supramolecular polysaccharide complex, comprising a functionalised coumarin tag featuring a boronic acid and β-d-glucan (a natural product extract from barley, Hordeum Vulgare) was assembled based on the ability of the boronate motif to specifically recognise and bind to 1,2- or 1,3-diols in

BACKGROUND Many experimental studies have suggested an important role for barley Rihane(BR)in the prevention of colon cancer and cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physico-chemical properties and nutritional characterizations of BR compared to other varieties

Barley is a major crop worldwide. It has been reported that barley seeds have an effect on scavenging ROS. However, little has been known about the functional role of the barley on the inhibition of DNA damage and apoptosis by ROS. In this study, we purified 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde from the barley

Aqueous methanolic extracts of whole kernels from six different barley cultivars, namely, Falcon, AC Metcalfe, Tyto, Tercel, Phoenix, and Peregrine, were examined for their total phenolic content (TPC), oxygen radical scavenging capacity (ORACFL), hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity (HORACFL),
