Glossostemon bruguieri (moghat) is used as a nutritive and demulcent drink. This study was performed to investigate the antiproliferative effects of moghat root extract (MRE) and its apoptotic mechanism in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells, HepG2 and Hep3B. MTT assay, morphological changes, apoptosis enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, caspase and apoptotic activation, flow cytometry, and imm...

this study aimed to explore and validate a new juvenile osteopenic (jo) rat model then examine the efficacy of moghat (glossostemon bruguieri) as an alternative reversal therapy for jo. phytochemical screening analysis showed that moghat contains 5.8% alkaloids, 1.5% flavonoids and 13.2% total phenols. juvenile osteopenia was induced in 15 days old sprague- dawley female rats by feeding them fr...

Two new flavonoids, takakin 7-O-glucoside (1) and (2) bucegin 7-O-glucoside, and six other known compounds (3-8), takakin, isosctullarien, its 7-O-glucoside, takakin 8-O-glucoside, xanthotoxin and esculetin, were separated and identified from Glossostemon bruguieri. The new compounds were characterized using modern spectroscopic techniques, including UV spectroscopy, proton nuclear resonance (1...

This work is the first attempt to study growth and some morphological parameters of the clam Ruditapes bruguieri, as well as its habitat preferences. It is found that R. bruguieri lives on bottom sediments including pebble and coarse- and medium-grained sand with a slight admixture of silt. At the study area, this bivalve inhabits sea waters with good aeration, stable oceanic water salinity, an...

Background and objectives: Phlomis bruguieri Desf. (Lamiaceae) is a perennial herbaceous plant distributed in Iran, Turkey and Iraq. Despite medicinal potentials of this species, the current knowledge on its phytochemical constituents is limited. The aim of the present study was to investigate the phytochemical constituents of the essential oil and various extracts of this species. Methods: Ess...
