background insomnia or sleeplessness is a disorder characterized by a personal incapability to falling or staying asleep for a desirable period of time, therefore disturb in quality of life. objectives the present study was carried out to investigate the effect of hydro-alcoholic extract of nepeta glomerulosa and its fractions on sleep-prolonging. materials and methods the extract and its fract...

the effect of aqueous extract of nepata glomerulosa boiss. aerial parts on morphine withdrawal syndrome was investigated in mice. dependence was induced by subcutaneous injections of morphine for 3 consecutive days. on day 4, morphine was injected 2 h prior to intraperitoneal injection of naloxone. the number of jumps during a 20 min. period after naloxone injection was considered as a measure ...

background & aim: essential oils are isolated from different sections of plants such as flowers, seeds, leaves, stems and roots. essential oils are applied extensively in producing of perfumes, cosmetics, foods, beverages and confectioneries and as ingredients of disinfectants and insecticides. experimental: essential oil are obtained by several isolation methods, such as hydrodistillation ...

Nepeta glomerulosa Boiss. is a medicinal plant has been used in traditional medicine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-melanogenesis inhibitory activity of MeOH, n-hexane, ethyl Acetate (EtAc), dichloromethane (CH2Cl2), n-butanol (BuOH) and H2O extracts isolated from N. glomerulosa in B16 melanoma cell line. The B16F10 cell line viability after treatment with increasing concentrat...

Nepetalactones are iridoid monoterpenes with a broad range of biological activities produced by plants in the Nepeta genus. However, none of the genes for nepetalactone biosynthesis have been discovered. Here we report the transcriptomes of two Nepeta species, each with distinctive profiles of nepetalactone stereoisomers. As a starting point for investigation of nepetalactone biosynthesis in Ne...
