Possible presence of calcium channel blocker(s) in Rubia cordifolia: an indigenous medicinal plant.
Crude extract of Rubia cordifolia (RC) was tested in isolated tissue preparations for its possible calcium channel antagonistic activity. RC suppressed the spontaneous contractions of guinea-pig atria, rabbit jejunum and rat uterus in a concentration dependent manner (0.1-3 mg/ml). In rabbit aorta, it inhibited norepinephrine (10 microM) and KCl (80 mM) induced contractions. Replacement of phys...

متن کاملHigh-Frequency in Vitro Direct Shoot Regeneration from Nodal Explants of Hyssop Plant (Hyssopus officinalis L.)
Considering great medicinal value of Hyssopus officinalis L. and possibility of its mass production through in vitro culture, two individual experiments was conducted. Effect of various concentrations (0, 2.2, 4.4 and 11 µmol) of TDZ and BAP in combination with 1 µmol of IAA on direct regeneration from nodal explants were assessed. Significant difference between treatments was observed (P≤ 0.01...
متن کاملPlant Regeneration from Callus Culture of Clematis gouriana Roxb. – A Rare Medicinal Plant
An in vitro regeneration protocol through stem callus culture has been standardized for the medicinal climber Clematis gouriana. The explant induced callus on MS-medium supplemented with 0.5 to 1.5 mg l BAP and 0.1 to 0.5 mg l NAA. The optimized callus induction occurred at the concentration of 1.0 mg l BAP and 0.3 mg l NAA. After initiation of callus, it was immediately transferred to MS mediu...
