Stimulation of the specific immune system by mistletoe extracts.

Only registered users can translate articles

We have investigated the in vitro responsiveness of T cells from mistletoe-treated cancer patients and untreated donors to various preparations of mistletoe extracts. Proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from treated but not from untreated patients was observed in response to

Activation of human gamma delta T-cells by heat-treated mistletoe plant extracts.

Only registered users can translate articles

Various microorganisms including mycobacteria, other bacteria and parasites such as Plasmodium falciparum are known to activate human gamma delta T-cells in vitro. In this study, we demonstrate that heat-treated (but not untreated) mistletoe extracts similarly stimulate human gamma delta T-cells

Biochemical and morphological changes in mouse liver induced by mistletoe toxins.

Only registered users can translate articles

Natural compounds are often characterized by high biological activity and sometimes toxicity. This also applies to compounds contained in the herb mistletoe. The objective of this study was to investigate short-term effects (up to 48 h) of mistletoe toxins on mouse hepatocytes. Standardized

Immunomodulating effects of Korean mistletoe lectin in vitro and in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

The immunomodulatory effects of Korean mistletoe lectin (KML), one of the major active components in Viscum album L. var. coloratum, were investigated in vitro in immune cell proliferation and natural killer (NK) cell- and macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity, and in vivo in the forced swim test and

Binding patterns of mistletoe lectins I, II and III to microglia and Alzheimer plaque glycoproteins in human brains.

Only registered users can translate articles

Glycoconjugates of microglial cells and in some cases those glycoconjugates present in the amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease in the cerebral cortex can be stained with a lectin from mistletoe (ML-I) using a labour-intensive and time-consuming indirect immunoperoxidase technique. In order to

Histochemical response of mice to mistletoe lectin I (ML I).

Only registered users can translate articles

The acute toxicity of lectin ML I from the toxic drug, mistletoe, was demonstrated in previous experiments. Because the reason for this extremely high toxicity is not yet clear, mice were studied histochemically at different times after treatment with various doses of ML I, ML I A or ML I B chain

Hepatoprotective effects of methanolic extract and fractions of African mistletoe Tapinanthus bangwensis (Engl. & K. Krause) from Nigeria.

Only registered users can translate articles

Methanolic extract and fractions, ethylacetate (EtF) and butanol (BuF) of leaves of African mistletoe (Tapinanthus bangwensis, Engl. & K. Krause) were evaluated for their hepatoprotective potential using CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity in Wistar albino rats. The activities of the marker enzymes alanine

Dissection of the impact of various intracellular signaling pathways on stable cell aggregate formation of rat thymocytes after initial lectin-dependent cell association of using a plant lectin as model and target-selective inhibitors.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bivalent lectins as bridging molecules between cells or cell surface lectins as docking points are involved in mediation of cell adhesion by specific recognition of suitable glycoconjugates on an opposing surface. The initial contact formation by a lectin can lead to intracellular post-binding

Effects of Lens culinaris agglutinin on gene expression of gluconeogenic enzymes in the mouse intestine.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Lectins are proteins that bind specifically to the carbohydrate moiety of glyco-conjugates. Japanese mistletoe lectin given intragastrically affected cytokine gene expression in the mouse intestine. This study examines the actions of Lens culinaris agglutinin (LCA) on the gene expression

Lectin histochemistry of microvascular endothelium in chick and quail musculature.

Only registered users can translate articles

The lectin binding pattern of muscular microvessels in chick, quail and chick/quail chimeras was analysed. Paraffin wax sections of muscles from embryonic and adult animals were used. The biotin-labelled lectins were detected by avidin-alkaline phosphatase complex. The following lectins bound to

Cytotoxic and Hepatocurative Effect of Aqueous Fraction of Tapinanthus bangwensis Against Paracetamol-Induced Hepatotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Medicinal plants over time have proven to have potential to manage a huge number of diseases and disorders and thus have become a great source of pharmaceutical drugs. One of such plants is Tapinanthus bangwensis (African mistletoe). It is a semiparasitic and epiphytic plant growing on citrus tree,

Analysis of constituents of the eastern Nigeria mistletoe, Loranthus micranthus linn revealed presence of new classes of osteogenic compounds.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Mistletoe extracts (decoctions) are used traditionally in eastern Nigeria for the management of bone pain, post menopausal syndrome and diabetes amongst several other ailments. While scientific evidence supporting its folkloric use as an antidiabetic agent has been documented, the

Mistletoe lectin induces apoptosis and telomerase inhibition in human A253 cancer cells through dephosphorylation of Akt.

Only registered users can translate articles

Mistletoe lectin has been reported to induce apoptosis in different cancer cell lines in vitro and to show antitumor activity against a variety of tumors in animal models. We previously demonstrated the Korean mistletoe lectin (Viscum album var. coloratum, VCA)-induced apoptosis by down-regulation

Phase I trial of intravenous aviscumine (rViscumin) in patients with solid tumors: a study of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer New Drug Development Group.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Aviscumine is an Escherichia coli-derived recombinant type II ribosome-inactivating protein with potent antitumor activity in vitro and in vivo. It is the recombinant counterpart of natural mistletoe lectin-I. The current study was performed to determine the safety profile, dose-limiting
