36 kDa glycoprotein isolated from Rhus verniciflua stokes inhibits G/GO-induced mitochondrial apoptotic signal pathways in BNL CL.2 cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rhus verniciflua Stokes is one of the medicinal plants traditionally used to heal and treat hepatic and inflammatory diseases. We found that a glycoprotein isolated from the fruit has a molecular weight of 36 kDa and consists of a carbohydrate component (38.75%) and a protein (61.25%), and that the

Stabilization of erythrocytes against oxidative and hypotonic stress by tannins isolated from sumac leaves (Rhus typhina L.) and grape seeds (Vitis vinifera L.).

Only registered users can translate articles

Erythrocytes are constantly exposed to ROS due to their function in the organism. High tension of oxygen, presence of hemoglobin iron and high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids in membrane make erythrocytes especially susceptible to oxidative stress. A comparison of the antioxidant

DNA-protective effects of sumach (Rhus coriaria L.), a common spice: results of human and animal studies.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sumach (Rhus coriaria L.) is widely used as a spice. The aim of this study was the investigation of its DNA-protective effects in humans and animals. Prevention of the formation of strand breaks and oxidized DNA bases as well as the protection against H(2)O(2)- and

Rhus verniciflua Stokes glycoprotein (36kDa) has protective activity on carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study was carried out to investigate the hepatoprotective effect of the glycoprotein isolated from Rhus verniciflua Stokes (RVS), which has traditionally been used for healing of inflammatory diseases. We evaluated the activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),

Comparative analysis of BPA and HQ toxic impacts on human erythrocytes, protective effect mechanism of tannins (Rhus typhina).

Only registered users can translate articles

Several studies reported that bisphenol A (BPA) and its metabolite hydroquinone (HQ) have adverse effects on human and animal health. In this work, a comparative study of influence of the BPA and HQ, environment pollutants, on human erythrocytes was carried out. It was shown that BPA and HQ to

Selective antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of flavonoids purified from Rhus verniciflua Stokes on normal versus transformed hepatic cell lines.

Only registered users can translate articles

Considerable attention is being concentrated on dietary flavonoids in developing novel cancer-preventive approaches due to their potential ability to induce selective apoptosis of cancer cells. In this study, we prepared a flavonoid-containing fraction from a crude acetone extract of Rhus

Chemoprevention of a flavonoid fraction from Rhus verniciflua Stokes on aflatoxin B1-induced hepatic damage in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Since aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1))-mediated hepatic damage is related to the production of AFB(1)-8,9-epoxide and reactive oxygen species, bioactive compounds having antioxidant potentials are suggested to be capable of reducing AFB(1)-induced toxicity. We previously purified a mixture of flavonoids that

Antidiabetic properties of the ethanolic extract of Rhus coriaria fruits in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Fruits of Rhus coriaria L. (Anacardiaceae) are traditionally used as a table spice in Iran and are highly recommended for diabetic patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the antidiabetic properties of the ethanolic extract of Rhus coriaria fruits and also its mechanisms of

Ultra-diluted Toxicodendron pubescens attenuates pro-inflammatory cytokines and ROS- mediated neuropathic pain in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Despite the availability of multiple therapeutic agents, the search for novel pain management of neuropathic pain is still a challenge. Oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling are prominently involved in clinical manifestation of neuropathic pain. Toxicodendron pubescens, popularly known as Rhus

A search for hepatoprotective activity of aqueous extract of Rhus coriaria L. against oxidative stress cytotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

The protective effects of different concentrations of aqueous extract of Rhus coriaria L. fruit (75 and 100 microg/ml) and also gallic acid (100 microM) as one of its main components were examined against oxidative stress toxicity induced by cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) in isolated rat hepatocytes.

Antirheumatoid arthritis effect of Rhus verniciflua and of the active component, sulfuretin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Oral administration of the MeOH extract of Rhus verniciflua or of an EtOAc fraction containing an EtOAc-soluble portion of the MeOH extract slightly decreased rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and C-reactive protein (CRP) factors in Freund's complete adjuvant reagent FCA-treated rats, indicating that they

Rhus verniciflua Stokes prevents cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity and reactive oxygen species production in MDCK-I renal cells and intact mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cisplatin-induced oxidative stress can cause liver and kidney damage, thus limiting therapeutic efficacy. Thus, in the present study, since Rhus verniciflua Stokes (RVS) containing flavonoids has antioxidant effects, we investigated whether it can protect cisplatin-induced toxicity in vitro and in

Antimutagenic activity of flavonoids from the heartwood of Rhus verniciflua.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pretreatment of the methanolic extract of the heartwood of Rhus verniciflua (Anacardiaceae) to rats prevented the activation of hepatic microsomal cytochrome p(450) enzymes, inhibition of hepatic glutathione S-transferase by bromobenzene treatment, respectively, and therefore significantly decreased

Cognitive-enhancing effects of Rhus verniciflua bark extract and its active flavonoids with neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory activities.

Only registered users can translate articles

The neuroprotective potential of flavonoids within the brain comprises anti-apoptosis of neuronal cells, anti-neuroinflammation and enhancement of cognitive function. We reported that Rhus vernciflua inhibits glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in primary cultured rat cortical cells. Here we narrowed it

Hypolipidemic and antioxidative effects of the plant glycoprotein (36 kDa) from Rhus verniciflua stokes fruit in Triton WR-1339-induced hyperlipidemic mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

We investigated the hypolipidemic and antioxidative effects on male ICR mice of a glycoprotein isolated from Rhus verniciflua Stokes (RVS) fruit. The administration of the RVS glycoprotein (100 mg/kg) for two weeks resulted in a significant decrease in such plasma lipid levels as total cholesterol
