Fabiana imbricata

Secondary metabolite content in Fabiana imbricata plants and in vitro cultures.

A rapid in vitro propagation system leading to the formation of shoots, calli, roots, cell suspensions and plantlets was developed for the Andean medicinal plant Fabiana imbricata (Solanaceae). Massive propagation of shoots and roots was achieved by the temporary immersion system (TIS), morphogenesis and maintenance of cell suspensions by standard in vitro culture techniques. Oleanolic acid (OA...

Tinea Imbricata (Tokelau) in Bengal

ringworm in 1874, but he considered the fungus to be identical with that of the European ringworm. Manson (1879?82) in China was the first to describe the disease in any detail and he gave it the name tinea imbricata; he considered the fungus a non-cultivable Trichophyton, to which Blanchard gave the name Trichophyton concentricum. Castellani in Ceylon (1910-11) was the first to cultivate the f...

Genetic inheritance of susceptibility to tinea imbricata.

Segregation analysis on 228 family pedigrees collected from a Papua New Guinean population provided data that strongly supported a previous report of an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance of a susceptibility to tinea imbricata. The frequency of the susceptibility gene within the population studied was found to be 0.49 +/- 0.04, calculated on the assumption of an autosomal recessive mode...
