Background and objectives: The goal of this study was to compare the cytotoxic and antioxidant activities of the corms extracts of two Crocus species (C. sativus L. and C. pallasii subsp. haussknechtii). Methods: n-Hexan, chloroform and methanol extracts of the corms were prepared. Cytotoxic activities of the extract...

background and objectives: angiogenesis is essential for tumor survival. inhibiting angiogenesis could be a mechanism for hindering tumor development. numerous studies have now been focused on agiogenesis inhibitors and many of such studies have targeted plant materials. in the present study, crocus pallasii subsp. haussknechtii has been evaluated for anti-angiogenesis properties. methods: anti...

The taxonomic affinity of six species of Crocus (C, cancellatus subsp. Damascenus C. almehensis, C. gilanicus, C. sativus, C.pallassi subsp. haussknechtii,C. speciosus subsp. speciosus) from Iran were studied usingdifferent electrophoresis techniques. The similarity index of the species was computed by comparison of protein bands of - Corm and seed tissues, and the related dendrogms of affi...
