Objectives:Curcuma amada Roxb. (Mango ginger) was evaluated for anti-obesity, anti-amnesic and neuroprotection using high-fat and high-sugar diet (HFHS)-induced obesity and cognitive impairment in rats. Methods: Animals were exposed to HFHS diet to evaluate lipid parameters and

The hypolipidemic effect of an ethyl acetate extract of the rhizome of Curcuma comosa Roxb was investigated in mice. Intragastric administration of the extract significantly decreased plasma lipid levels of both triglyceride and cholesterol but increased liver triglyceride content. Liver weight and

The influence of the extract of Curcuma comosa Roxb. (Zingiberaceae) on lipid metabolism was investigated in hypercholesterolaemic hamsters. Intragastric administration of the ethyl acetate extract of C. comosa rhizome (0-500 mg/kg per day) to hypercholesterolaemic animals for 7 days decreased both

We investigated the effect of a phytoestrogen, (3R)-1, 7-diphenyl-(4E, 6E)-4, 6-heptadien-3-ol (DPHD), from Curcuma comosa Roxb. (Zingiberaceae family) on the adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal progenitors, human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). DPHD inhibited

BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome is an increasingly prevalent problem, not only in industrialized developed countries, but in developing countries as well. The modern healthcare to reduce the dysfunction of metabolic syndrome is burdened with great problems of unsafe medicines and certain degree of

This research focused on studying the effects of orally administered pressure-blanched white saffron on the antioxidative properties and lipid profiles of wistar rats. White saffron was blanched in autoclave for 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10 min at 100, 105, 110, 115, and 120 °C, which are equivalent to

Xanthorrhizol, a natural compound isolated from Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.

The present study investigated the acute, subchronic and genotoxicity of turmeric essential oil (TEO) from Curcuma longa L. Acute administration of TEO was done as single dose up to 5 g of TEO per kg body weight and subchronic toxicity study for thirteen weeks was done by daily oral administration

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the protective effect of turmeric powder on arsenic toxicity through mice model. Swiss albino male mice were divided into four groups. The first group was used as control, while groups 2, 3, and 4 were treated with turmeric powder (T, 50 mg/kg body
