In the present study, we examined the effect of ethanolic soluble derivative of propolis (EEP) extract on immunological function in diabetic mouse models with the aim of highlighting the role of regulatory T cell, the change of cell surface molecule, and in vivo productions of IFN-γ. Murine models of diabetes mellitus (DM) were created by injecting normal mice with S961 peptide. Normal BALB/c m...

With the determination of biological activity different components in chemistry propolis, its importance has increased day by and use field integrative medicine become widespread. Propolis is not used crude form due to physical properties, it have be extracted. The type solvent extraction process very important for efficiency propolis. Solvents commonly propolis extraction; are water, ethanol m...

Natural products or byproducts have always been considered as the safest medicament for humans especially for treating the diseases. Propolis, a resinous honey bee extract is one of such medicament which has proven itself to be successful in is based on its antimicrobial, anti an overview of different applications and uses of propolis in the field of dentistry.

The aim of the study was to select the optimal composition of semisolid using natural materials, and to evaluate the quality of such preparation. Investigation of rheological properties, evaluation of sensory characteristics, detection and identification of phenolic acids using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were performed. The results of the rheological investigations and the st...

The aim of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and anti-inflammatory effect of ethanolic extract of Brazilian green propolis (EEP-B) on LPS + IFN- γ or PMA stimulated J774A.1 macrophages. The identification and quantification of phenolic compounds in green propolis extract were performed using HPLC-DAD and UPLC-Q-TOF-MS methods. The cell viability was evaluated by MTT and LDH...

Oxidative stress may play a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. Propolis and its extract have antioxidant properties. The effect of ethanolic extract of propolis against experimental diabetes mellitus-associated changes was examined. Diabetes was induced experimentally in rats by i.p. injection of streptozotocin (STZ) in a dose of 60 mg/kg bwt for 3 successive days. Blood urea...

Naturforsch. 49c, 39-43 (1994); received August 16/October 15,1993 Propolis, Dihydrofolate Reductase, Antiinflammatory Drugs, Caffeic Acid Ethanolic and aqueous extracts of the natural compound PROPOLIS indicate substa...

Bee glue (propolis) possesses antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anaesthetic and immunostimulating activities. The aim of the study was to evaluate the inhibitory effect of Bulgarian propolis on Helicobacter pylori growth in vitro. Activity of 30% ethanolic extract of propolis (EEP) against 38 clinical isolates of H. pylori was evaluated by using the agar-well diffusion method. Ethanol was used ...
