BACKGROUND The leaves of Ziziphus mucronata are used locally as food and a health drink; the leaf paste can also be used in the treatment of boils. The root of the plant is usually used in the treatment of a wide range of pains. OBJECTIVE The study was carried out to evaluate the hepatoprotective potential of the methanol leaf extract of Ziziphus mucronata (ZMLM). METHOD The extract was pre...

buccal mucoadhesive films have attracted great attention among mucoadhesive systems due to their ability to adhere and remain on the oral mucosa and to release their drug content gradually. the aim of the current study was to formulate the ziziphus jujuba aqueous extract as buccal bioadhesive film, which continiously releases the drug at sufficient concentration for reducing the frequency of th...

Introduction Jujube is an important economic forest tree whose fruit rich in alkaloids. Chinese jujube ( Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) and sour spinosa Hu.) are the two most species of genus. However, mechanisms underlying synthesis metabolism alkaloids fruits remain poorly understood. Methods In this study, ‘Hupingzao’ ‘Taigusuanzao’ different harvest stages were used as test materials, we first inte...

BACKGROUND Nesfatin-1 is a protein derived from a precursor molecule of the nucleobindin-2 gene, and acts as an anorexigenic peptide on food intake behavior, and its level isinfluenced by nutritional status, food composition [fat and carbohydrate (CHO)], and physical exercise. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of 6 weeks of treadmill running (at high intensity) p...

jujube (ziziphus jujuba mill.) is a valuable medicinal plant which is important in iranian traditional medicines. although the regional plants such as jujube play an important role in our economy, but they are forgotten in research and technology. considering the economic and medicinal importance of jujube, the first step in breeding programs is determination of the genetic diversity among the ...

Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) is an economically important fruit tree with outstanding adaptability to marginal lands and a broad range of climate conditions. There are over 800 cultivars, mostly landraces from China. However, high rate mislabeling in germplasm restricts the sharing information materials among researchers hampers use breeding. In present study, we developed large panel...
