Phenolics extracted from tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tartaricum L. Gaerth) bran were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The bioactivity of the phenolic extracts was evaluated, such as the antioxidant activity, and the inhibition capacity on the growth of cancer cells. The molecular
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Weimaining (WMN) is a condensed Tannin compound extracted from Fagopyrum cymosum (Trevir.) Meisn., which comes from the roots of buckwheat, a type of Chinese herbal medicine, was first recorded in "Bencao
Five potential polysaccharides from guava seed (GSPS), common buckwheat (CBPS), bitter buckwheat (BBPS), red Formosa lambsquarters (RFLPS), and yellow Formosa lambsquarters (YFLPS) were selected to measure their effects on mouse peritoneal macrophages in the absence or presence of lipopolysaccharide
We evaluated the effect of the roasting and brewing conditions of Tartary buckwheat (TB), which is widely used in infusion teas, on its antioxidant and antiproliferative activities in vitro. TB was roasted at 210 °C for 10 min and brewed at a high temperature for a short time (HTST; 85-90 °C, 3 min)
A ribonuclease, with a molecular mass of 22.5 kDa and an N-terminal sequence exhibiting resemblance to previously isolated buckwheat storage proteins and allergens, was isolated from Japanese large brown buckwheat seeds. The ribonuclease was purified using a simple protocol that comprised ion
TBWSP31 is a novel antitumor protein that was isolated from tartary buckwheat water-soluble extracts. The objective of this paper was to investigate the anti-proliferative effects of TBWSP31 on breast cancer Bcap37cells and to explore its possible mechanism. After treatment of Bcap37 cells with
An antifungal peptide with a molecular mass of approximately 4 kDa was isolated from buckwheat seeds by using ion-exchange chromatography on SP-Sepharose and Q-Sepharose, and gel filtration on Superdex peptide. The peptide was adsorbed on SP-Sepharose in 10 mM NH(4)OAc buffer (pH 4.5) and on
