Antioxidant effects of damiana (Turnera diffusa Willd. ex Schult.) in kidney mitochondria from streptozotocin-diabetic rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The antioxidant effects of water-ethanol extract (WEE) from Turnera diffusa (damiana) in kidney mitochondria from experimental streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus (STZ-DM) rats was evaluated. STZ-DM rats were orally treated during three and five weeks. After experimental periods, kidney

Multi-wavelength high-performance liquid chromatographic fingerprints and chemometrics to predict the antioxidant activity of Turnera diffusa as part of its quality control.

Only registered users can translate articles

The determination of the antioxidant activity of Turnera diffusa using partial least squares regression (PLSR) on chromatographic data is presented. The chromatograms were recorded with a diode array detector and, for each sample, an enhanced fingerprint was constructed by compiling into a single

Development and validation of an HPLC-DAD analytical procedure for quality control of damiana (Turnera diffusa), using an antioxidant marker isolated from the plant.

Only registered users can translate articles

Damiana is a shrub used as a dietary supplement and as an additive in several foods. This report presents the first validated analytical method for QC of products made from damiana. Through bioassay-guided fractionation, the compound showing the best antioxidant activity, determined using

Natural variability of essential oil and antioxidants in the medicinal plant Turnera diffusa.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate differences in yield and composition of the essential oil and antioxidant contents in Turnera diffusa plants from localities in central region of Tamaulipas. METHODS Samples were collected in Tamaulipas, Mexico in the arid zone. Essential oil was obtained through steam

Correlation between chromatographic fingerprint and antioxidant activity of Turnera diffusa (Damiana).

Only registered users can translate articles

In the present contribution, the partial least squares (PLS) method was used to establish a correlation between the antioxidant activity (obtained by DPPH assay) and chromatographic profiles of TURNERA DIFFUSA extracts. Chromatograms were obtained using HPLC-DAD. A model was constructed using 40

Total phenolic content, in vitro antioxidant activity and chemical composition of plant extracts from semiarid Mexican region.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To determine the extraction suitable conditions of total phenolic content (TPC) by heat-reflux system, antioxidant activities and HPLC characterization of the aqueous-ethanolic extracts of Jatropha dioica (J. dioica) (Dragon's blood), Flourensia cernua (F. cernua) (Tar bush), Eucalyptus

Antioxidant responses of damiana (Turnera diffusa Willd) to exposure to artificial ultraviolet (UV) radiation in an in vitro model; part I; UV-C radiation.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Ultraviolet type C (UV-C) radiation has higher energy than the UV-B radiation and has been less studied because it is completely absorbed by the ozone layer. However, artificial UV-C radiation can generate diverse modifications in the plants. Given that exposure to UV-C for short periods

Antioxidant responses of damiana (Turnera diffusa Willd) to exposure to artificial ultraviolet (UV) radiation in an in vitro model; part ii; UV-B radiation.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Ultraviolet type B (UV-B) radiation effects on medicinal plants have been recently investigated in the context of climate change, but the modifications generated by UV-B radiation might be used to increase the content of antioxidants, including phenolic compounds. OBJECTIVE To generate

Antioxidant activity and protective effect of Turnera ulmifolia Linn. var. elegans against carbon tetrachloride-induced oxidative damage in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study aimed to determine whether the leaves of Turnera ulmifolia Linn. var. elegans extract exert significant antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of its hydroethanolic extract (HEETU) was evaluated by assessing (a) its radical scavenging ability in vitro, and (b) its in vivo

Turnera ulmifolia L. (Turneraceae): preliminary study of its antioxidant activity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Turnera ulmifolia L. is used in Brazilian folk medicine as an anti-inflammatory. Since this activity may be correlated with the presence of antioxidant compounds, a leaf extract was evaluated for its radical scavenging capacity (RSC). The in vitro RSC of a 50% hydroethanolic (HE) extract was

Modulatory effect of Turnera diffusa against testicular toxicity induced by fenitrothion and/or hexavalent chromium in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Oxidative stress and increased production of reactive oxygen species have been implicated in pesticides and heavy metals toxicity. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of Turnera diffusa Willd (damiana) on counteracting fenitrothion (FNT) and/or potassium dichromate

Assessment of chemical, biological and immunological properties of "Damiana de California" Turnera diffusa Willd extracts in Longfin yellowtail (Seriola rivoliana) leukocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

In Mexican herbal medicines or natural remedies, Turnera diffusa (Turneraceae) known as "Damiana de California", has ethnopharmacological relevance, including aphrodisiac, diuretic, and antimicrobial activities. To explore the immunological effect of infusion and methanolic extracts from

Gastroprotective activities of Turnera diffusa Willd. ex Schult. revisited: Role of arbutin.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Turnera diffusa Willd. ex Schult. has been used for the treatment of several human disorders including peptic ulcer. OBJECTIVE The current study is an attempt to evaluate the anti-ulcerogenic activities of arbutin, a major constituent of Turnera diffusa on two ulcer models. The possible

Microplate quantification of total phenolic content from plant extracts obtained by conventional and ultrasound methods.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND There is increasing interest in phenolic compounds around the world because of their potential positive impact on human health. Phenolic compounds are largely found in fruits and vegetables. Extraction of phenolic compounds is a very important step in their recovery. The newly developed

Cytotoxic activity of the methanolic extract of Turnera diffusa Willd on breast cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Turnera diffusa Willd, commonly known as Damiana, is employed in traditional medicine as a stimulant, aphrodisiac, and diuretic. Its leaves and stems are used for flavoring and infusion. Damiana is considered to be safe for medicinal use by the FDA. Pharmacological studies have established the
