Bioactive constituents of Eupatorium adenophorum were investigated for antifungal activity. A structure-antifungal activity relationship of cadinene sesquiterpenes was predicted by evaluating individual derivatives. Cadinene derivatives were extracted from leaves of Eupatorium adenophorum using
In the past, Native Americans of North America had an abundant traditional herbal legacy for treating illnesses, disorders, and wounds. Unfortunately, much of the ethnopharmacological knowledge of North American Indians has been lost due to population destruction and displacement from their native
Sarcoptes scabiei, a parasite mite which causes scabies disease resulting in serious public health concern. The long-term scabies disease can lead to complications like septicemia, acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis, heart disease and secondary infections. Timely treatment to the affected
Methanol extracts from 11 traditionally used Argentine medicinal plants were assayed in vitro for antifungal activity against yeasts, hialohyphomycetes as well as dermatophytes with the microbroth dilution method. Among them, the strongest effect was presented by Eupatorium buniifolium and
Natural plant extracts often contain compounds that are useful in pest management applications. The essential oil of Eupatorium capillifolium (dog-fennel) was investigated for antifungal and insecticidal activities. Essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation of aerial parts was analyzed by gas
During routine screening of medicinal plants for small molecular weight inhibitors of cell adhesion, the crude ethanolic extract of the anti-rheumatic herbal drug gravel root (rhizome of Eupatorium purpureum), was identified as a potent inhibitor of some beta 1 and beta 2 integrin-mediated cell
The Asteraceae plant Ageratina adenophora (also called Eupatorium adenophorum) has became the most destructive invasive species in China, especially the southwestern region, and is gravely threatening the native biodiversity. Its high reproductive capacity is partly due to the developed root system.
Eupatorium lindleyanum has traditionally been used as folk medicine in Asian countries for its therapeutic effects on tracheitis and tonsillitis. Investigation of the anti-inflammatory active constituents from E. lindleyanum led to the isolation of two novel sesquiterpene lactones, named
The antifungal activity of oils extracted from Eupatorium adenophorum was tested against five phytopathogens in vitro. Oil extracts inhibited the mycelial growth of Phytophthora capsici which causes phytophthora blight in pepper. The minimum inhibitory concentration of oils against P. capsici was
Oils extracted from the leaves of Eupatorium adenophorum were tested in vitro and in vivo against the soilborne pathogen Pythium myriotylum which causes soft rot, a devastating disease of commercial ginger production in China. Twelve compounds accounting for 99.15% of the total oil composition were
The aims of present study were to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of extracts from Eupatorium adenophorum against Sarcoptes scabiei. A 30-day experiment was performed using New Zealand rabbits that were naturally infested with S. scabiei in the toes (n=30) or artificially infected in the external
Pathological increases in adipogenic potential with decreases in osteogenic differentiation occur in osteoporotic bone marrow cells. Previous studies have shown that bioactive materials isolated from natural products can reciprocally regulate adipogenic and osteogenic fates of bone marrow cells. In
BACKGROUND
Eupatorium lindleyanum DC. is widely used for its efficiency in treating cough, tracheitis and tonsillitis. Acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice was used to investigate therapeutic effects and possible mechanism of the sesquiterpenes fraction of E.
According to our results, the traditional therapeutic indications of Eupatorium cannabinum L., choleretic and hepatoprotective effects, have been widely demonstrated. An aqueous extract induces hypercholeresis in the rat, the site of bile formation is canalicular in origin and both bile
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease characterized by synovitis, hyperplasia, and the destruction of bone and cartilage. A variety of immunosuppressive biological agents have been developed because the pathogenesis of RA is related predominantly to the inflammatory
