To search for dried plant seeds with potent anti-diabetes activity, we conducted a large scale screening for inhibitory activity on tumor necrosis factor-alpha and facilitating activity on adiponectin production in vitro. These activities in 3T3-L1 adipocytes were screened from ethanol extracts of
Radish (Raphanus sativus) has been extensively studied for its preventive effects against different degenerative diseases. Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium spp and is frequently implicated in immunological disorders and occasionally in hyperoestrogenic syndromes contributing to
The protective effects of an extract of young radish (Raphanus sativus L) cultivated with sulfur (sulfur-radish extract) and of sulforaphane, an isothiocyanate, on carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4))-induced liver injury were observed in mice. CCl(4) produced a marked increase in the serum level of
The seeds of Raphanus sativus L. (RSL) have long been used as anti-inflammatory traditional medicine. However, scientific bases for the purported potential of the medicine and the associated mechanisms were barely defined. This study investigated the effects of RSL seeds on lipopolysaccharide
BACKGROUND
Water extract of Raphanus sativus L. (RSL) seeds was traditionally used to treat digestive inflammatory complaints in Korean culture. RSL seeds exerted antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-septic functions, suggesting their pharmacological potential for the treatment of inflammatory
4-Methylthio-3-butenyl isothiocyanate (MTBI) is a pungent bioactive constituent found in daikon. However, MTBI is immediately hydrolyzed to 3-hydroxy-methylene-2-thioxopyrrolidine in grated daikon. In this study, we evaluated whether MTBI in grated daikon complexed with α-cyclodextrin (αCD) has
Infectious clones were generated from 17 new Korean radish isolates of Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that all new isolates, and three previously characterized Korean radish isolates, belong to the basal-BR group (indicating that the pathotype can infect both
Discula destructiva culture filtrates and partially purified culture filtrates (PPCF) inhibited radish (Raphanus sativus) and dogwood (Cornus) species in a seedling root bioassay. Noninoculated potato-dextrose broth (PDB) extracted and separated in a similar manner also inhibited seedling growth.
A consistent contamination from a Stemphylium sp. was detected on radish (Raphanus sativus) seeds by a seed blotter test. Twenty-five percent of seed lots were contaminated. Stemphylium vesicarium (teleomorph Pleospora allii) was identified on the basis of morphological characters of conidia and
In the spring of 1997, commercial plantings of daikon or Chinese radish (Raphanus sativus L. cv. longipinnatus) in the San Joaquin Valley, Fresno County, were damaged by a disease previously undocumented in California. Symptoms consisted of small (2 to 5 mm diameter), circular to oblong, brown to
Cadmium (Cd) raises serious concerns as its accumulation in the plant not only affect the growth and quality of plant but also threaten the health of consumers. In this research, two vegetables, i.e., radish (Raphanus sativus L.) and lettuce (Lactuca sativa L), were planted in pots having soil
In 2014, we performed a nationwide survey in Korean radish fields to investigate the distribution and variability of Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV). Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis sap-inoculated with three isolates of TuMV from infected radish tissue showed different symptom severities, whereas symptoms
Effluent from electroplating industry contains various heavy metals like Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn, which are used in electroplating process of industry. Effluent was slightly greenish in colour and pungent in odour. Physico-chemical properties like total suspended solids (TSS), total solids (TS),
Elicitins are small, secreted proteins produced by species of the plant-pathogenic oomycete Phytophthora. They induce hypersensitive cell death in most Nicotiana species and in some cultivars of Brassica rapa and Raphanus sativus. In this study, two true-breeding Fast Cycling B. rapa lines were
Spread of soil-borne fungal plant pathogens is mainly driven by the amount of resources the pathogen is able to capture and exploit should it behave either as a saprotroph or a parasite. Despite their importance in understanding the fungal spread in agricultural ecosystems, experimental data related
