A new phloroglucinol diglycoside 1, together with eight known compounds, were isolated from Hypericum japonicum Thunb. The structure of the new compound 1 was determined by spectroscopic methods to be 4,6-dimethyl-5-O-[alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->6)-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl] multifidol. Different solvent extracts of Hypericum japonicum Thunb. were tested for in vivo antihypoxic activity using mi...

Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) is a worldwide spread pathogen which penetrates host skin and then induces several diseases in infected host, such as fibrosis, formation of granulomas, hepatocirrhosis, and hepatomegaly. In present study, for the first time, transcriptomic profiles of mouse livers and skins infected by fork-tailed S. japonicum cercaria or non-fork-tailed S. japonicum cercar...

in order to study of the effects of hydro-osmo priming, bio-priming (biological fertilizer (barvar-2) and inoculation with rhizobium japonicum bacteria) on growth & yield of dpx cultivar of soybean (glycine max l.), an experiment was carried out as factorial based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with 4 replications in agriculture research station of shahrood university of technolog...

Southern hybridization with nif (nitrogen fixation) and nod (nodulation) DNA probes from Rhizobium meliloti against intact plasmid DNA of Rhizobium japonicum and Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains indicated that both nif and nod sequences are on plasmid DNA in most R. japonicum strains. An exception is found with R. japonicum strain USDA194 and all B. japonicum strains where nif and nod sequences...

High concentrations of airborne particulate matter (PM) in urban areas are great concern to human health. Urban greening has been shown be an effective and eco-friendly way alleviate particle pollution, attention its role mitigating pollution increased worldwide. The species-specific PM-capturing capacity ten urban-greening species Seoul was evaluated by leaf functional traits (average area (AL...

INTRODUCTION: The activity of garlic oil extract against Schistosoma japonicum cercariae was evaluated. METHODS: The in vitro and in vivo cercaricidal activities against S. japonicum larvae were determined. RESULTS: Exposure to ≥ 10-6 (v/v) garlic emulsions for 30 min led to 100% cercariae mortality; pre-exposure treatment with ≥ 10-4 (v/v) garlic emulsions showed 100% preventive efficacy ...

Hypericum japonicum Thunb. ex Murray is mainly distributed throughout Asia, Oceania and North America and is used as an important herbal medicine. H. japonicum contains many valuable secondary metabolites, such as flavonoids, phloroglucinols and xanthones and has hepatoprotective, anti-tumor, antibacterial, antiviral, and antioxidant activities and effects on the cardiovascular system and immun...

Schistosoma japonicum is endemic in the Philippines, China and Indonesia, and infects more than 40 mammalian host species, all of which can act as reservoirs of infection. In China, water buffaloes have been shown to be major reservoirs of human infection. However, in the Philippines, carabao have not been considered important reservoir hosts for S. japonicum due to the low prevalence and infec...

Some reports suggest the positive correlation between Schistosoma japonicum infection and colorectal cancer, however the sufficient evidence that supports a causal relationship between them has not been established. Japan used be an endemic area of S. japonicum infection for 40 years ago. But now all of Japan is a non-endemic area of S. japonicum infection. We report a case of ascending colon c...
