Papirus (Cyperus papyrus L.) merupakan salah satu tumbuhan akuatik yang dominan ditemukan di Sungai Wangi Pasuruan. Peningkatan aktivitas manusia dan industri sepanjang daerah aliran sungai (DAS) telah memicu terjadinya pencemaran, diantaranya adalah timbal (Pb). Tumbuhan terpapar logam Pb akan meresponnya secara fisiologis, terutama berpengaruh terhadap biomassanya, sehingga dapat dijadikan se...

objective(s):global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury causes loss of pyramidal cells in ca1 region of hippocampus. in this study, we investigated the possible neuroprotective effects of the ethanol extract of cyperus rotundus (eecr) on a model of global transient ischemia in rat, by evaluating the pathophysiology of the hippocampal tissue and spatial memory. materials and methods: treatment ...

Cyperus rotundus (CR) is a traditional medicinal herb, and recent studies demonstrated its pharmacological effects to cure neurological disorders. In our earlier reports, we also found that CR exerts anxiolytic effects and improves memory impairment in hypoxia-induced rats. In vitro CR also effectively ameliorates oxidative stress-induced SH-SY5Y neuronal cell damage. In the present study, we e...

Cyperus longus is one of the Iranian endemic species. However, to date, and to the best of our knowledge, there are no availale academic reports on the cytotoxicity of this plant. Thus, this study was carried out to examine the in vitro anti-proliferative and anti-apoptotic effects of Cyperus longus extract, fractions and essential oil (EO) on MCF7 and PC3 cell lines. The chemical constituents ...
