conclusions these results demonstrated that cse, mainly through inhibition of alr2, could prevent or delay the diabetic complications, like cataract formation, as a result of sorbitol accumulation. results the cse inhibited alr2 activity, with an ic50 of 0.54 mg/ml and it was seven and a half times greater than that of alr1 inhibition, indicating the specificity of cse for alr2, rather than alr...

Capparis spinosa L. (C. spinosa) has been used as food and traditional medicine and shows anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities. Here, we prepared the C. spinosa fruit ethanol extracts (CSEs) using different procedures and investigated the effects of CSE on the maturation of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) in the absence or presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). DC matura...

Capparis spinosa L. has many biological effects such as antioxidant properties. In the present study, we compared the effects of the hydro-alcoholic extract of Capparis spinosa fruit, quercetin (Q), and vitamin E (Vit E) on monosodium glutamate (MSG)-induced toxicity. The following groups were designed: Control groups (normal saline and/or corn oil); MSG group (4.00 g kg-...

The research studies the biological efficiency of fungus Verticillium lacanii and alcoholic extract leaves Nerium sp Capparis Lawsonia against fourth larval instar adults male female Phlebotomus papatasi. study was conducted at laboratory condition a temperature 25±2°C, relative humidity. 65 ± 5% period illumination 12 hours / day . suspension concentration 1×810 spores ml gave highest mortalit...

In this study, the inhibiting effect on α-amylase and α-glucosidase antioxidant activity of ethanol extracts from flower fruit Capparis ovata var. palaestina was investigated. The tested with DPPH●, ABTS●+ FRAP tests. According to results, highest were found in extract (IC50=271.72±0.41 µg/mL 142.07±0.85 µg/mL, respectively). Also, TPC (26.40±0.02mgGAE/gextract) TFC (8.33±0.30 mgCA /gextract) s...
