this study aimed to determine phenolic compounds of artemisia spicigera (family asteraceae) growing in east-azarbaijan province of iran. 20%, 40 % and 60% spe fractions of methanolic extract of a. spicigera, were subjected to reversed phase preparative hplc, with the mobile phase consisted of methanol and water. structural identification of phytochemicals by spectroscopic methods including uv a...

Salvia genus is one of the largest genera of the Lamiaceae family. Its species have been used for a wide variety of disorders in the local traditional medicine systems. Therefore, the genus has been the subject of several phytochemical and biological studies. The aim of the study was to identify the major antioxidant compound(s) from the methanol extract of Salvia verticillata using activity-gu...

It is now believed that the inhibition of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes (CHEs) in the digestive tract can significantly prolong the overall carbohydrate digestion time and decrease the postprandial hyperglycemia after a meal. Therefore, inhibitors of CHEs can be useful therapeutic approaches in the management of diabetes mellitus, especially in the type 2, and complications associated with t...

Edible flowers are a new “old” trend in modern gastronomy and healthy nutrition aimed at increasing food attractiveness improving the consumption of beneficial phytocompounds that have valuable properties. Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L., Cucurbitaceae family) is well-known agricultural product; it an important crop commonly used across globe. Despite sufficient knowledge nutrients secondary metab...

Plant growth and production are more severely inhibited by alkalinity than salinity. However, the metabolites responsible for reduced caused largely unknown. Here, Illumina RNA-Seq analysis targeted metabolome were used to identify differentially expressed genes responding salt alkali stresses. The expression levels of eight related photosynthesis some chlorophyll synthesis decreased under stre...

Luteolin is mainly metabolized by phase II enzymes in animals and humans with glucuronidation and sulfation as the two known metabolic pathways. Although methylation of luteolin was reported previously, the structure of the methylated metabolites and the enzymes involved in the process have not been clarified. In our study, two methylated metabolites, M1 (chrysoeriol) and M2 (diosmetin), were i...
