In order to scientifically appraise some of the anecdotal, folkloric, ethnomedical uses of Hypoxis hemerocallidea Fisch. & C.A. Mey. (Hypoxidaceae) corm ['African Potato'], the present study was undertaken to examine the antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic properties of the corm's
OBJECTIVE
The potato glycoalkaloids, α-chaconine, α-solanine and solanidine, along with potato peel extracts were investigated for potential anti-inflammatory effects in vitro. Their potential to reduce two biomarkers of inflammation, cytokine and nitric oxide (NO) productions, were assessed in the
The effects of aqueous and methanolic extracts of Hypoxis hemerocallidea corm, locally known as 'African potato' in South Africa, were examined on rat paw edema induced by subplantar injections of fresh egg albumin (0.5 ml/kg). Acetyl salicylic acid (100 mg/kg p.o.) was used as the reference
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of potato extract (PE) on cigarette smoke (CS)-induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
METHODS
PE was first prepared by frozen centrifugation, and its amino acid composition was detected. Toxicity of PE was analyzed by
Inflammation and oxidative stress are always more recognized as responsible for chronic disease at the intestinal level. Currently, a growing interest is addressed to the discovery of diet-derived products which have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. This work aims to characterize the
In this study, the potential effects of a novel alkali-soluble polysaccharide (ASPP) from purple sweet potato on colonic histopathology, inflammation and microbiota composition in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis mice were evaluated. The results indicated that ASPP restored the immune
In this study, the structural characterization and anti-inflammation effect of dilute alkali-soluble polysaccharides from purple sweet potato were investigated. Three fractions (F-1, F-2 and F-3) were obtained by purifying crude polysaccharides on DEAE-52 cellulose column. The main fraction (F-1)
The hydrophilic extracts of eggplant peel (HEEP) and purple sweet potato (HEPP) and lipophilic extracts of tomato (LET) and carrot (LEC) were mixed in different ratios to assess the significance of the compatibility of aliments, based on their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory interactions in H9c2
OBJECTIVE
To explore the mechanism of purple sweet potato anthocyanins through NF-κB pathway in attenuating steatohepatitis induced by high fat diet combined with carbon tetrachloride in rats.
METHODS
Seventy male rats were randomly divided into control group( n = 10) and high-fat diet group( n =
BACKGROUND
Purple sweet
potato (
Ipomoea Batatas L.) is one of the sources for anthocyanin, which promotes the health through antioxidant,
anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, neuroprotection, and anti-apoptosis activities. Oxidative stress has been shown to be the cause of
Purple sweet potato color (PSPC), a naturally occurring anthocyanin, has a powerful antioxidant activity in vitro and in vivo. This study explores whether PSPC has the neuroprotective effect on the aging mouse brain induced by D-galactose (D-gal). The mice administrated with PSPC (100 mg/kg.day, 4
Purple sweet potato color (PSPC), a class of naturally occurring anthocyanins used to color food (E163), has been reported to possess a variety of biological activities, including anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, and anti-inflammatory. The effect of PSPC on the spatial learning and memory of mice treated
Background: African Potato (hypoxis hemerocallidea), is used for enhancing immune system in Southern Africa. It is among the plants of intense commercial and scientific interest; hence, the aim of this study was to describe its chemistry
Anthocyanins have been shown to exert anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory effects and anti-carcinogenic activity. In the present work, we investigated the protective effects of anthocyanin fraction (AF) from purple sweet potato on tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP)-induced hepatotoxicity in HepG2
