Decreased tissue blood flow causes pressure ulcers due to prolonged on the area, which becomes problematic for immobile individuals. The medical community has often been involved in curing such a problem individuals with disabilities and immobility. To alleviate this problem, therefore, plenty of investigations are always seeking novel methods. Furthermore, herbal plants increasingly used owing...

BACKGROUND: Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a skin fragility disorder that results in the disruption of dermo-epidermal junction and painful blisters on mucous membranes. Currently, there almost no definite treatment for EB patients. AIM: This study aims to assess effect topical formulation based Arnebia euchroma (AE) lesions induced by EB. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All patients with diseases treate...

In this paper, the effect of pH on in vitro cell growth and naphthoquinone pigment production in cell suspension cultures of Arnebia euchroma (Royle) Johnston was evaluated under a two-stage culture system. Friable callus derived from leaves of in vitro established shoots was maintained on MS medium supplemented with BAP (10 μM) and IBA (5 μM) and the same medium was used for raising cell suspe...

Suspension cultures of Arnebia euchroma supported with liquid perfluorodecalin (PFD) degassed, aerated, or ethylene-saturated were investigated as a novel in situ extraction system for enhanced alkannin/shikonin production. Simultaneously, the effect of PFD applied as the liquid gas carrier on the growth of A. euchroma biomass was studied. The similar dry (4-fold) and fresh (7-fold) biomass inc...
