In vitro antispermogenic activity of an isolated triterpenoid from the extract of the root of the plant Mangifera indica L. was evaluated. The structure (3-O-acetyl-11,19-dinor-12,20-dimethylursane) was confirmed by the help of different spectral analysis.

There is little scientific evidence on the local use of Mangifera indica in kidney diseases. This study investigated the reno-modulatory roles of the aqueous stem bark extract of Mangifera indica (MIASE) against CCl4-induced renal damage. Rats were treated intragastrically with 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg/day MIASE for 7 days before and after the administration of CCl4 (3 ml/kg of 30% CCl4, i.p.). S...

The study was undertaken to investigate the hypolipidemic and hepatoprotective effects of the different fractions (Petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and chloroform) of ethanolic extract of immature leaves of Mangifera indica. The different fractions of extract were administered intraperitonially as a single dose of 150 mg/kg body weight to alloxan induced diabetic rats and found to reduce blood li...

Pruning is an unavoidable necessity of virtually all arboreal fruit crops. In the tropics and subtropics, pruning of mango (Mangifera indica L.) is particularly important due to its tendency for frequent flushes, especially in humid tropics. Commercial orchards must maintain control of both tree size and orchard productivity in order to remain productive. Tip, formation, and severe pruning can ...

Objectives: This study was carried out to assess the histomorphological findings of the liver of Plasmodium-infected albino mice following administration of aqueous leaf extract of Mangifera indica. Methods: Forty-two male albino mice, weighing 20–25 g, were used for this research. The mice were randomly assigned into six groups A, B, C, D, E and F (n=7, each). Groups B, C, D, E and F were infe...

The leaves of Mangifera indica L. (Anacardiaceae) is used as a medicinal material in traditional herb medicine for a long time in India, China, and other Eastern Asian countries. Our present study investigated the therapeutic effects of the ethanol extract from Mangifera indica (EMI) in rat with monosodium urate (MSU) crystals-induced gouty arthritis. Effects of EMI (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg, p.o...

Lipofundin is a lipid rich emulsion used in parenteral nutrition. It is known that Lipofundin induces an oxidative stress state characterized by an increase of lipid peroxidation and a dramatic depletion of antioxidants. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of an aqueous extract of Mangifera indica L., on Lipofundin-induced oxidative stress. Male Sprague Dawley rats were tre...

This is the first register of Sinoxylon conigerum attacking timber of teak (Tectona grandis L.f.), mango tree (Mangifera indica L.) and (Astronium fraxinifolium Schott) in the municipalities of Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, State of Mato Grosso, Brazil.

The present work reveals the carbon sequestration potential of eight selected species of trees which predominate in the Golapbag campus of the University of Burdwan in the West Bengal state of India with an objective to find their utilitarian value in environmental optimization of the area and landscape designing for aesthetic rejuvenation. It was found that Swietenia mahagoni successively foll...
