Hepatoprotective activity of Musa paradisiaca on experimental animal models.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To investigate the hepatoprotective activity of stem of Musa paradisiaca (M. paradisiaca) in CCl4 and paracetamol induced hepatotoxicity models in rats. METHODS Hepatoprotective activity of alcoholic and aqueous extracts of stem of M. paradisiaca was demonstrated by using two

Musa sapientum with exercises attenuates hyperglycemia and pancreatic islet cells degeneration in alloxan-diabetic rats.

OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that administrations of methanolic extracts of Musa sapientum sucker (MEMS) with exercises attenuated hyperglycemia in alloxan-diabetic rats. METHODS A total of 40 adult male rats were divided into equal eight groups. Normoglycemic Group A was Control. Alloxan (180

Banana streak virus Identified for the First Time in Peru in Cavendish Banana (Musa AAA).

Only registered users can translate articles

In October of 2005, a field survey was done in the province of Piura in northern Peru to determine the cause of a disease known locally as "mosaico" that was affecting organic Cavendish banana (Musa AAA) grown for the export market. Disease symptoms consisted of pronounced chlorotic and

Anti-oxidant and anti-hyperglycemic activities of musa sapientum root extracts in alloxan-induced diabetic rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Anti-hyperglycemic and anti-oxidant properties of methanolic (MEMS) and aqueous (AEMS) extracts of Musa sapientum roots were investigated in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. Thirty adult male Wistar albino rats divided into five groups of 6 rats each were used: group 1--non-diabetic untreated

Comparison of tissue deterioration of ripening banana fruit (Musa spp., AAA group, Cavendish subgroup) under chilling and non-chilling temperatures.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In fleshy fruits, induced programmed cell death (PCD) has been observed in heat-treated tomato, and in ethylene-treated and low-temperature exposure in immature cucumber. No other fleshy fruit has been evaluated for chilling-injury-induced PCD, especially mature fruit with full ripening

Antioxidant effcacy of unripe banana (Musa acuminata Colla) peel extracts in sunflower oil during accelerated storage.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Sunflower oil is prone to oxidation during storage time, leading to production of toxic compounds that might affect human health. Synthetic antioxidants are used to prevent lipid oxidation. Spreading interest in the replacement of synthetic food antioxidants by natural ones has fostered

Morphohistological study of the different constituents of a banana (Musa AAA, cv. Grande naine) embryogenic cell suspension.

Only registered users can translate articles

Five types of cellular aggregates have been characterised in embryogenic cell suspensions of banana (Musa AAA Grande naine cv.). Type I corresponded to isolated cells or to small cell aggregates. Type II were composed of embryogenic cells. Type III can be distinguished from type II due to the

Differential accumulation of β-carotene and tissue specific expression of phytoene synthase (MaPsy) gene in banana (Musa sp) cultivars.

Only registered users can translate articles

An experiment was conducted with twelve major Indian banana cultivars to investigate the molecular relationship between the differential accumulation of β-carotene in peel and pulp of the banana fruit and carotenoid biosynthetic pathway genes. The high performance liquid chromatography showed that

Analysis of non-TIR NBS-LRR resistance gene analogs in Musa acuminata Colla: isolation, RFLP marker development, and physical mapping.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Many commercial banana varieties lack sources of resistance to pests and diseases, as a consequence of sterility and narrow genetic background. Fertile wild relatives, by contrast, possess greater variability and represent potential sources of disease resistance genes (R-genes). The

TLC-bioautography identification and GC-MS analysis of antimicrobial and antioxidant active compounds in Musa × paradisiaca L. fruit pulp essential oil.

Only registered users can translate articles

The absence of microbial growth and resistance to oxidative deterioration in fruits of Musa × paradisiaca L. (bananas) is an indication of the presence of antimicrobial and antioxidant metabolites.In order to investigate the secondary metabolomic spectrum

Assessment of In Vivo Antidiabetic Properties of Umbelliferone and Lupeol Constituents of Banana (Musa sp. var. Nanjangud Rasa Bale) Flower in Hyperglycaemic Rodent Model.

Only registered users can translate articles

Banana is an extensively cultivated plant worldwide, mainly for its fruit, while its ancillary product, the banana flower is consumed as a vegetable and is highly recommended for diabetics in the traditional Indian medicine system. This study is based on an investigation of the in vivo

Angio-Suppressive Effect of Partially Purified Lectin-like Protein from Musa acuminata pseudostem by Inhibition of VEGF-Mediated Neovascularization and Induces Apoptosis Both In Vitro and In Vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

Lifestyle and nutritional changes have contributed much to the somatic genetic changes which have concurrently led to an increase cancer in humans. Hence the plant-based and nutritional involvements block oncogenic transformation are in good demand. We evaluate Phloem exudates of the dietary plant,

Detection of Banana mild mosaic virus and Banana virus X by polyvalent degenerate oligonucleotide RT-PCR (PDO-RT-PCR).

Only registered users can translate articles

Viruses are important constraints to the movement and propagation of plant germplasm, especially for vegetatively propagated crops such as banana and plantain. Their control relies primarily on the use of virus-free plant material, whose production and certification requires sensitive and reliable

Isolation and characterization of nucleotide-binding site and C-terminal leucine-rich repeat-resistance gene candidates in bananas.

Only registered users can translate articles

Commercial banana varieties are highly susceptible to fungal pathogens, as well as bacterial pathogens, nematodes, viruses, and insect pests. The largest known family of plant resistance genes encodes proteins with nucleotide-binding site (NBS) and C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains.

Cloning and expression of resistance gene analogs (RGAs) from wild banana resistant to banana Fusarium wilt.

Only registered users can translate articles

Wild banana species are essential natural gene pools for banana improvement. In this study, six RGAs about 500 bp were obtained from leaves of Musa acuminata, a wild banana shown to be resistant to banana Fusarium wilt race 4, by PCR amplification with degenerate primers designed according to the
