Antifungal Activities of the Leaf Extract of Clerodendrum infortunatum Retz
The antifungal activity of the dealcoholized extract of the leaves of Clerodendrum infortunatum Retz. was determined on four different fungal organisms. The crude leaf extract significantly inhibited the growth of A. niger; P. frequentance; P. notataum and B. cinera when tested by turbidity and spore germination methods in concentration dependent fashion. The effects produced by the extract wer...
متن کاملWound-healing Activity of Clerodendrum infortunatum L. Root Extracts
Validation of the ethnotherapeutic claim of Clerodendrum infortunatum L. was investigated to evaluate its wound-healing potency in experimental rats. For topical application, 4% (w/w) ointment cream bases of petroleum ether, chloroform and ethanol extracts were prepared and assessed for their effect on excision, incision and dead space wound models. Significant wound healing was observed in ani...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of a human macrophage lectin specific for galactose.
The murine Mac-2 protein is a galactose- and IgE-binding lectin secreted by inflammatory macrophages. We describe here the cloning and characterization of a cDNA representing the human homolog of Mac-2 (hMac-2). The amino acid sequence derived from the hMac-2 cDNA indicates that the protein is evolutionarily highly conserved, with 85% of its amino acid residues being similar to those in the mur...
