Formation of adducts of parthenin and related sesquiterpene lactones with cysteine and glutathione.

Only registered users can translate articles

Parthenin, the major sesquiterpene lactone of Parthenium hysterophorus, a weed responsible for dermatitis in man is primarily restricted to leaf and stem trichomes. Parthenin forms a monoadduct with L-cysteine through the alpha-methylene group of the gamma-lactone and a biadduct with the endocyclic

Assessment of mutagenicity in Parthenium hysterophorus L.

Only registered users can translate articles

The mutagenic potential of a crude extract of Parthenium hysterophorus L. was assessed in the Salmonella/microsome (Ames) assay and the mouse bone marrow micronucleus test. Results in the bacterial mutagenicity assay were negative for the five strains employed, e.g. TA 1535, TA1537, TA 98, TA 100

Isopentenyl Pyrophosphate cis-1,4-Polyisoprenyl Transferase from Guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray).

Only registered users can translate articles

Electron micrographs of the mesophyll cells of guayule Parthenium argentatum Gray leaves show deposits of cis-polyisoprene (rubber) in the cytoplasm in the vicinity of mitochondria and chloroplasts and demonstrate that the rubber-synthesizing enzymes are present in guayule leaves. The terminal step

Toxicological effect of Parthenium hysterophorus and milk processing industry sludge on earthworms, Eisenia fetida.

Only registered users can translate articles

Production of large quantities of organic waste all over the world poses major environmental and disposal problems. The present study was conducted to explore the deleterious effects of Parthenium hysterophorus and milk processing industry sludge on the health of earthworm, Eisenia fetida.

Impact of Parthenium weeds on earthworms (Eudrilus eugeniae) during vermicomposting.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of this work is to evaluate the effect of Parthenium-mediated compost on Eudrilus eugeniae during the process of vermicomposting. Nine different concentrations of Parthenium hysterophorus and cow dung mixtures were used to assess toxicity. The earthworms' growth, fecundity and antioxidant

Drought and salinity induced changes in ecophysiology and proteomic profile of Parthenium hysterophorus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Parthenium hysterophorus is a plant that tolerates drought and salinity to an extremely high degree. Higher expression of stress-responsive proteome contributes for greater defence against abiotic stresses. Thus, P. hysterophorus could be a rich source of genes that encode stress-imparting

Antitumor activity of Parthenium hysterophorus and its effect in the modulation of biotransforming enzymes in transplanted murine leukemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

The methanolic flower extract of Parthenium hysterophorus has been found to have antitumor effects in host mice bearing transplantable lymphocytic leukemia. The effect was more pronounced in terms of tumor size, tumor spread, and survival of the host. The potentiating effect of the extract was

Exploiting the Allelopathic Potential of Aqueous Leaf Extracts of Artemisia absinthium and Psidium guajava against Parthenium hysterophorus, a Widespread Weed in India.

Only registered users can translate articles

Artemisia absinthium and Psidium guajava are powerful sources of secondary metabolites, some of them with potential allelopathic activity. Both the species grow together in India with a weed (Parthenium hysterophorus) that is becoming extremely invasive. The aim of the present

Cadmium and copper induced changes in growth, oxidative metabolism and terpenoids of Tanacetum parthenium.

Only registered users can translate articles

Morphological and biochemical responses of feverfew plants exposed to low (5 μM) and high (35 and 70 μM) levels of Cd or Cu were investigated. Increasing metal supply notably reduced the plant biomass. Elevated Cd and Cu levels also resulted in an increase in the leaf proline content. Besides,
