In this present cardioprotective activity study the crude powder of the Hyoscyamus niger Linn is administered to the male albino rats at the dose of 100mg/100g.b.wt. The markers of cardiac function test assess the normal functioning of heart. If there is a change in their normal values of these makers it indicates the dysfunction of heart. Biochemical parameters like TGL, Ck-MB and LPO were car...

Cell suspension of Hyoscyamus a/bus L. were investigated for growth and production of tropane alkaloids in three different media. The effects of sucrose concentration and initial pH were also studied. 2,4Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 1% sucrose enhanced the production of tropane alkaloids. The percent of alkaloids (0.75%) was higher than in the cultivated plant (0.352 %).

Within the family Solanaceae, tribe Hyoscyameae comprises eight genera distributed across Eurasia. Despite a few attempts to understand relationships within this tribe, affiliations among most remain unresolved. Recently, complete chloroplast genomes from several species of were published, enabling phylogenomic inferences. We sequenced plastome Scopolia carniolica, second genus be reported. Gen...

background and objective: recent studies have shown that anticholinergic alkaloids compounds have strong analgesic effects. due to presence of anticholinergic alkaloids in hyoscyamus niger and its mentioned effects in iranian traditional medicine, its analgesic effects were assessed. at first, acute and chronic pain thresholds in male nmri rats with formalin test was evaluated, then oral and in...

The tribe Hyoscyameae (Solanaceae) is restricted to Eurasia and includes the genera Archihyoscyamus, Anisodus, Atropa, Atropanthe, Hyoscyamus, Physochlaina, Przewalskia and Scopolia. Even though the monophyly of Hyoscyameae is strongly supported, the relationships of the taxa within the tribe remain unclear. Chloroplast markers have been widely used to elucidate plant relationships at low taxon...
