Adiantum capillus-veneris Linn. (Maidenhair fern) in modern phytotherapy
Background and objectives: Maidenhair fern is an herbal medicine belonging to the family Pteridaceae which is extensively found in Atlantic coast as far as Ireland, America and Iran. The fronds of Adiantum capillus-veneris are prescribed for treatment of different diseases. Different phytochemical compositions such as flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, terpenoids, etc...
متن کاملAdiantum shastense, a new species of maidenhair fern from California
A new species of Adiantum is described from California. This species is endemic to northern California and is currently known only from Shasta County. We describe its discovery after first being collected over a century ago and distinguish it from Adiantumjordanii and Adiantumcapillus-veneris. It is evergreen and is sometimes, but not always, associated with limestone. The range of Adiantumshas...
متن کاملLygodium japonicum fern accumulates copper in the cell wall pectin.
The present work reports the results of a study on the growth kinetics and characterization of matrix polysaccharides in the cell walls of Lygodium japonicum prothallium grown in the presence of copper (Cu). When the prothallium was cultured in the media containing 0.2 mM or 0.4 mM CuSO(4), it showed a rapid accumulation of Cu with a maximum uptake of Cu measured in the cells up to 20 d of cult...
متن کاملSporangium Exposure and Spore Release in the Peruvian Maidenhair Fern (Adiantum peruvianum, Pteridaceae)
We investigated the different processes involved in spore liberation in the polypod fern Adiantum peruvianum (Pteridaceae). Sporangia are being produced on the undersides of so-called false indusia, which are situated at the abaxial surface of the pinnule margins, and become exposed by a desiccation-induced movement of these pinnule flaps. The complex folding kinematics and functional morpholog...
متن کاملUnusual cell wall ultrastructure of Leptotrichia buccalis.
Leptotrichia buccalis was examined by transmission electron microscopy. Its cell wall structure in generally compatible with that of gram-negative bacteria. However, the scale-like membranous folds associated with the external surface of the outer cell membrane appear to be sufficiently unusual to serve as a useful morphological criterion in the identification of L. baccalis cells.
