Lycium ruthenicum  is a perennial shrub of in Solanaceae, which is an important plant for improving the environment desert greening. The sterile seedlings of  Lycium ruthenicum  were inoculated callus induction medium MS-1 (MS+0.5~1 mg/L NAA+1.5~2.5 6-BA+30 g/L sucrose + 8 agar, pH5.2) about 10 days. After 40 days, was separated from explants and placed MS-2 (MS 0.5 ～ 1 NAA ...

This study was conducted to compare traditional medicinal knowledge species diversity genus Berberis that are widely distributed area. Methods: The data collected through group discussion face-to-face interviews from 2,368 participants during 2020–2022, using a semi-structured questionnair...

Objective(s):Sub-health has been described as a chronic condition of unexplained deteriorated physiological function, which falls between health and illness. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP), a polysaccharide fraction purified from Lycium barbarum (L. barbarum) on the sub-health mice. Materials and Methods:The sub-health model mice were buil...

Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) is the major function component of Lycium barbarum L. and has been previously reported to induce the phenotypic and functional maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) as well as activating T lymphocytes. In the current study, the immunologic cytotoxicity promoting effect of LBP was assessed and the underlying mechanism was explored. The impact of LBP on the phen...

In order to the neuroprotective effect of Lycium chinense fruit (LCF), the present study examined the effects of Lycium chinense fruit on learning and memory in Morris water maze task and the choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) of rats with trimethyltin (TMT)-induced neuronal and cognitive impairments. The rats were randomly divided into the following grou...

Goji berry (wolfberry), a member of the Solanacea family, has been recently introduced in Western countries and its consumption has increased rapidly. The objectives of the study were to describe the cases of 2 patients who experienced allergic symptoms after Goji berry consumption, to identify the protein profile of the extract, to analyze the allergenic profile of individuals, and to determin...

To observe the effects of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) on testis spermatogenic injuries induced by Bisphenol A (BPA) in mice. BPA was subcutaneously injected into mice at a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight (BW) for 7 consecutive days. LBP was administered simultaneously with BPA by gavage daily at the dose of 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg BW for 7 days. After treatment, the weight and the histopa...

Purpose As an active component in wolfberry, lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) are capable of protecting retinal neurons in several animal disease models. Here, we asked whether LBP rescues the retinal morphology and function in rd1 mouse, a photoreceptor fast-degenerating animal model of retinitis pigmentosa, and in particular focused on LBP's effects on the function of retinal ganglion ce...
