A new Lycoris radiata pathogenesis-related (PR)-4 gene, LrPR4 was isolated. LrPR4 encodes a 142 amino acid protein with a predicted molecular mass of 15.43 kDa and pI of 7.56. The putative LrPR4 shows high similarity to PR4 type proteins from various plant species and belongs to the Barwin family.
Fungal infections not only cause extensive agricultural damage but also result in serious diseases in the immunodeficient populations of human beings. Moreover, the increasing emergence of drug resistance has led to a decrease in the efficacy of current antifungals. Thus, screening of new antifungal
Alkaloids having acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity are commonly found in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM); for example, berberine from Coptis chinensis, galantamine from Lycoris radiata, and huperzine A from Huperzia serrata. In practice of TCM, Stephaniae
Accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) in the brain has been implicated in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Aβ is produced from the Aβ precursor protein (APP) through the amyloidogenic pathway by β-, and γ-secretase. Alternatively, APP can be cleaved by α-, and γ-secretase, precluding the
OBJECTIVE
Lycoris is aurea agglutinin (LAA) has attracted rising attention due to its remarkable bioactivities. Here, we aimed at investigating its anti-tumor activities.
METHODS
In vitro methods including MTT, cellular morphology observation, FCM and immunoblotting were performed. In vivo methods
Amaryllidaceae alkaloids are an example of the vast diversity of secondary metabolites with great therapeutic promise. The identification of novel compounds in this group with over 300 known structures continues to be an area of active study. The recent identification of norbelladine
In traditional practices of Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, numerous plants have been used to treat cognitive disorders, including neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). An ethnopharmacological approach has provided leads to identifying potential new drugs from plant sources,
