The pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity of the rhizome of Alpinia officinarum (AO) and its antihyperlipidemic activity were measured. When the water extract of AO was fractionated stepwise with organic solvents, the ethyl acetate fraction exhibited the most potent inhibition. 3-Methylethergalangin

Isolation of bioactive phytoconstituent from Alpinia galanga L. with anti-hyperlipidemic activity.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study was undertaken to explore the antihyperlipidemic effect of ethanolic extract of rhizomes of Alpinia galanga L. and its chloroform fraction in Triton-induced hyperlipidemic rats. Bioactivity guided fractionation was followed by chromatographic studies. Flash chromatography was done

Protective effect of Alpinia galanga in STZ induced diabetic nephropathy.

The activity of the alcoholic extract of the rhizomes of Alpinia galanga was studied for the treatment of diabetes-induced nephropathy in rats. Wistar rats received a single intraperitoneal streptozotocin injection (60 mg kg(-1) b.wt.) to induce diabetes. Rats were considered diabetic if blood

Hypolipidemic effects of different angiocarp parts of Alpinia zerumbet.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In utilization of Alpinia zerumbet (Pers.) Burtt and Smith (Zingiberaceae) (AZ), usually the angiocarps are discarded without further use. OBJECTIVE We speculate whether the angiocarps could show hypolipidemic effect. METHODS Several diets were prepared: Alpinia seed powder (ASP); Alpinia

Anti-diabetic effect of Alpinia oxyphylla extract on 57BL/KsJ db-/db- mice.
