Abstract:

Background: Hops Plant (Humulus lupulus L.) plants is very beneficial has many industrial and medical applications. hops has protein, amino acids, lipids, fatty acids, sugars such as glucose and fructose, pectin, salts, wax and estrogenic compounds. So the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of hops extracts on hormone levels and sex cells in adult mice. Materials and Methods: 40 adult male mice used in research are divided into four main groups, each consisting of five subgroups of 8 groups were divided into of control, experiment 1, 2 and 3. The experimental group received daily 50, 100 and 150 mg / kgBW Hops extract was given orally. At the end of 35 days, using the ether imbued cotton in a jar of anesthesia, after anesthetized, blood from the left ventricle was performed, and the testes removed, the tissue sections were prepared for evaluation of tissue changes. Samples stained with hematoxylin - eosin was performed. Levels of testosterone and progestin hormones estrogen and sex cells also were examined And Independent sample t test and ANOVA were used (p ≤0/05). Results: The results of this study indicate that extracts of hops increases testosterone and estrogen in the experimental group, While they do not show a significant effect on progesterone. It also increases the number of, spermatogonia cells, and spermatid in experimental group. Conclusion: This study showed that extracts of hops can affect on hormone levels and sexual cells in adult male mouse and this plant can be useful in treatment of infertility.

Inhibitors of nitric oxide production from hops (Humulus lupulus L.).

Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in many inflammatory responses and is also involved in carcinogenesis. In the present study, we investigated the inhibitory effect of extracts from Humulus lupulus L. on both the production of NO and the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in mouse macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. The production of NO was induced by a combination of lipopolysaccharide...

New prenylchalcones from the hops of Humulus lupulus.

Two new prenylchalcones, xanthohumol C and D, together with two known prenylchalcone derivatives, xanthohumol (1) and 5''-(2''-hydroxyisopropyl)-dihydrofurano-[2'',3''-b]-4,4'-dihydroxy-6'-methoxy-chalcone (4) were isolated and identified from the hops of Humulus lupulus L. The structures of xanhohumol C and D were elucidated as 5''-hydroxy-6'',6''-dimethyl-dihydropyrano-[2'',3''-b]-4,4'-dihydr...

Genetic and epigenetic stability of cryopreserved and cold-stored hops (Humulus lupulus L.).

Conventional cold storage and cryopreservation methods for hops (Humulus lupulus L.) are available but, to our knowledge, the genetic and epigenetic stability of the recovered plants have not been tested. This study analyzed 51 accessions of hop using the molecular techniques, Random Amplified DNA Polymorphism (RAPD) and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP), revealing no genetic variat...
