BACKGROUND
Numerous efforts have been conducted in searching for effective agents against cardiovascular diseases, in particular from herbal medicines. The rhizome of Dioscorea nipponica (Dioscoreae Nipponicae Rhizoma) is a traditional Chinese herb being prescribed to improve the blood circulation.
The first fatal case of Yam bean and Rotenone toxicity in Thailand was studied at Forensic Medicine, Chiang Mai, Thailand. A Chinese Taiwan man, 59 years old, was found dead after Yam bean ingestion. Yam bean toxicity and death have been found very rarely in the world and has not been reported in
Thrombosis in coronary or cerebral arteries is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Diosgenin and total steroidal saponins extracted from the rhizome of Dioscorea zingiberensis C.H. Wright are demonstrated to have anti-thrombotic activity. However, few studies describe the
Thrombus formation in blood vessel plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. Extract of Dioscorea zingiberensis C.H. Wright (D. zingiberensis) is demonstrated to posses activities for curing cardiovascular diseases such as coronary
Steroidal saponins have long attracted scientific attention, due to their structural diversity and significant biological activities. Total steroidal saponins (TSS) extracted from the rhizomes of Dioscorea zingiberensis C.H. Wright (DZW) constitute an effective treatment for cardiovascular disease.
Two organotin compounds, tri-n-butyltin acetate (TBTA) and triphenyltin acetate (TPTA), that have antifungal potentials and are intended for use on yam root crops to prevent rot were evaluated for acute mammalian toxicity in rats. The median lethal doses po were 297.54 mg TBTA/kg and 402.38 mg
