BACKGROUND Parthenium dermatitis is a common airborne allergic health problem that induces a cell-mediated hypersensitivity immune response involving activated T lymphocytes, which culminates in injury to the skin. The disease is manifested as itchy erythematous papules and plaques and primarily

Parthenium argentatum (Gray), commonly known as guayule, has been used to obtain natural rubber since the beginning of the 20th century. Additionally, the so called "resin" is a waste product derived from the industrial process. The cycloartane-type triterpene Argentatin A (AA) is

Being one of the notorious weed P. hysterophorus has invaded almost every part India and is the lead cause of skin allergies and severe dermatitis among farmers and rural population. It is an invasive obnoxious weed capable of surviving extreme environmental conditions and various parts of this

Excessive elaboration of proinflammatory cytokines are involved in cachexia-related hypercatabolism. Parthenolide, as a potential anti-inflammatory active agent, could effectively inhibit nuclear factor-kappa B, and has the potential for the treatment of cancer cachexia. In this study, the cancer

Argentatins A and B are abundant triterpenes present in Parthenium argentatum. Both compounds have shown cytotoxic properties on K562, MCF-7, PC-3, HCT-15 and U251 human cancer cell lines. Furthermore the cytotoxic, cytostatic and genotoxic effects of the argentatins on proliferating lymphocytes

Traditional synthetic techniques for silver nanoparticles synthesis involve toxic chemicals that are harmful to humans as well as the environment. The green chemistry method for nanoparticle synthesis is rapid, eco-friendly, and less toxic as compared to the traditional methods. In the present

BACKGROUND Parthenium dermatitis is a common airborne allergic contact dermatitis induced by exposures to the weed Parthenium hysterophorus. The disease manifests as itchy erythematous papules, papulovesicular and plaque lesions on exposed areas of the body. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to

OBJECTIVE Investigation was carried out on Saponin 1 (SAP-1), a novel molecule isolated from Parthenium hysterophorus, on proinflammatory (Th1) & anti-inflammatory (Th2) cytokines in blood of arthritic balb/c mice. METHODS Adjuvant induced developing inflammatory arthritis was induced in mice which

Present work reports the biological activities of P. hysterophorus leaf, stem, flower, and root. Dried samples were sequentially extracted with many solvents. Hexane (HX), benzene (BZ), and chloroform (CH) extracts of leaf showed considerable antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans (MTCC

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

The present work reports the anticancer, antioxidant, lipo-protective, and anti-HIV activities of phytoconstituents present in P. hysterophorus leaf. Dried leaf samples were sequentially extracted with nonpolar and polar solvents. Ethanol fraction showed noticeable cytotoxic activity (81-85%) in SRB

CONCLUSIONS Up-regulation of germacrene A synthase and down-regulation of parthenolide hydroxylase genes play key role in parthenolide accumulation of feverfew plants treated with methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid. Parthenolide is an important sesquiterpene lactone due to its anti-migraine and

Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) is a perennial medicinal herb and is a rich source of sesquiterpene lactones. Parthenolide is the main sesquiterpene lactone in feverfew and has attracted attention because of its medicinal potential for treatment of migraine and cancer. In the present work the
