It has great antiviral and cytotoxic potential. The present review summarizes ethnobotany, phytochemistry, antiviral and cytotoxic / anticancer potential of Morus alba. Phytochemical screening of Morus alba reveale...

Overproduction of reactive oxygen species is involved in many diseases, including cardiovascular, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, cancer, viral and bacterial infections as well as osteoarthritis. Although antioxidant activity of Morus alba L. has been investigated in various parts of this plant, a little attention has been paid to the stems of this plant. Therefore, the present study was ...

Antioxidant activity of Berry (Morus alba var. nigra) was investigated. For superoxide anion radical assay, the superoxide anion radicals were generated by a pyrogallol auto oxidation system, Nitric oxide radical inhibition by the use of Griess Illosvoy reaction and reducing power was determined according to the Oyaizu method. At least this sample was represented a potential antioxidant capacit...

BACKGROUND Morus alba has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat inflammatory diseases; however, the scientific basis for such usage and the mechanism of action are not well understood. This study investigated the action of M. alba on leukocyte migration, one key step in inflammation. METHODS Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and cluster analyses of supercritical C...

The current study aims at determining the antioxidant properties of Morus alba leaves extract (MLE) on various organs of mice. Forty male Swiss albino mice were divided into control group and three different groups which received three different doses of MLE orally for 10 days. The glutathione, nitrite/nitrate, malondialdehyde levels were estimated in kidney, testis, spleen and jejunum of adult...

The study was designed to evaluate the cardioprotective effect of methanolic extract of Morus alba L. leaves against isoprenalineinduced myocardial infarction and was investigated by an in vivo method in rats. Male Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups (n=6). Group I rats served as normal control. Group II rats served as isoprenaline induced toxic control (110 mg/kg body weight) whic...
