miroestrol/pueraria mirifica

The purpose of this study is to develop LC-MS-MS and LC-Q-Orbitrap/MS method for the analysis of the components of Pueraria mirifica, which are illegal additives in dietary supplements. Blank samples and samples spiked with miroestrol and isomiroestrol were used for the initial development and

Miroestrol (1) has been isolated previously as an active principle from "Kwao Keur" (Pueraria mirifica), a rejuvenating folk medicine from Thailand. Reinvestigation using bioassay-guided purification has resulted in the isolation of a new potent phytoestrogen, deoxymiroestrol (2). The facile aerial

Quantitative analysis of miroestrol (1) and kwakhurin (3) by HPLC, leading to standardisation of commercially available Thai miracle herb 'Kwao Keur' which has been identified with Pueraria mirifica, was established using independent solvent systems. The simple isolation procedure of highly

Miroestrol and deoxymiroestrol are phytoestrogens isolated from Pueraria candollei var. mirifica. The influence of miroestrol and dexoymirosestrol on hepatic cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes and antioxidative activity in brain was examined in C57BL/6 mice compared with that of a synthetic female sex

Oxidative stress is involved in the progression of several diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and age-related diseases. Miroestrol (MR) is a potent phytoestrogen from the tuberous root of Pueraria mirifica, a plant used in traditional Thai medicine that is claimed to have rejuvenating effects.

Miroestrol (MR) is a highly active phytoestrogen isolated from tuberous root of Pueraria candollei var. mirifica (PM). Modulatory effects of PM and MR on osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) mRNAs which are bone-specific genes were investigated in

OBJECTIVE The influences of Pueraria candollei var. mirifica (PM), a Thai medicinal plant with long tradition of medicinal consumption among menopausal women for rejuvenation and estrogen hormone replacement, on oxidative status in ovariectomized (OVX) mice were determined. METHODS The crude extract

The side effects of kwao keur dietary supplements (obtained from the tuberous root of Pueraria mirifica) have recently been reported by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, Japan. To control the quality of kwao keur products, its ingredients need to be maintained by characteristic marker

Estrogen stimulates endothelial nitric oxide (NO) production and attenuates endothelial dysfunction in ischemia/repurfusion and menopause. Recent studies have shown that phytoestrogens from dietary sources improve endothelial function and reduce cardiovascular risks. The Thai medicinal plant

Miroestrol and deoxymiroestrol are phytoestrogens isolated from tuberous root of Pueraria candollei var. mirifica. Modulatory effects of miroestrol and deoxymiroestrol on enzymes involved in sex-hormone synthesis pathway in male C57BL/6 mice were investigated using semi-quantitative reverse

Miroestrol (ME) and deoxymiroestrol (DME) are the most potent phytoestrogens and bioactive markers in Pueraria candollei var. mirifica tuberous roots. To understand their pharmacokinetic profiles, a pharmacokinetic study of ME and DME, at 0.43 and 0.21 mg per kg body weight, respectively, in three
