A filamentous virus identified in coleus (Coleus × hybrida) in Minnesota and New York was found to cause veinal necrosis in coleus, although this symptom was observed only under certain conditions. The virus was transmitted readily by mechanical inoculation to coleus and Nicotiana spp. and was not
The plant Coleus forskohlii is distributed primarily in India, Thailand, China, Egypt and Brazil and has a history of use in the treatment of multiple diseases. Isoforskolin (ISOF) is the principle active component of C. forskohlii native to China and has previously been studied for its biological
The principal active component of isoforskolin (ISOF) is from the plant Coleus forskohlii, native to China, which has attracted much attention for its biological effects. We hypothesize that ISOF and forskolin (FSK) pretreatment attenuates inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) related to
Virus-like disease symptoms consisting of foliar and veinal necrosis similar to those caused by Coleus vein necrosis virus (CVNV) (2) were observed in plants of coleus (Coleus blume Benth.) 'Rustic Orange' obtained from retail greenhouse outlets in Missouri and Minnesota. Flexuous, filamentous, 750
Mercury vapor induces ethylene formation and abscission in Citrus and Coleus explants. Both responses are markedly greater in the absence of CO(2). The stimulation of these metabolically complex processes indicates that the action of mercury vapor is not consistent with the more popular conception
Isoforskolin was isolated from Coleus forskohlii native to Yunnan in China. We hypothesize that isoforskolin pretreatment attenuates acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin). Three acute lung injury models were used: situ perfused rat lung, rat and mouse models of endotoxic shock.
