This study investigated the possible antidiabetic role and therapeutic crucial action of the saponin fractions of the ethanolic extract of areal parts of the medicinal plant Anabasis articulata compared to currently available antidiabetic drug gliclazide (diamicron) against diabetic complications induced tissue injury in rats. Fractionation of hydro alcoholic extract from the aerial parts of An...

The title compound, C(20)H(26)O(2), was isolated from a chloro-form extract of Tetra-clinis articulata wood. The mol-ecule contains three fused rings which exhibit different conformations. The non-aromatic oxo-substituted ring has a screw-boat conformation, while the central ring has a half-chair conformation. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked to each other by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen...

The new title diterpenoid compound, C(20)H(30)O, is a natural product isolated from Tetra-clinis articulata wood via chloro-form extraction. The asymmetric unit contains four mol-ecules with the same S,S configuration, deduced from the chemical synthesis. Indeed, an overlay analysis, calculated using structure-matching software, shows that the four mol-ecules can be superimposed. The central ri...

HIGHLIGHTS Eleven crystalline morphotypes were found in Baccharis articulata. Calcium oxalate is the chemical composition of crystals. Both monohydrate and dihydrate types B. articulata Crystal can be used as anatomical markers.

In this study, the in vivo effect of the crude extract and n-butanol and aqueous residual fractions of Baccharis articulata (Lam.) Pers. on serum glucose levels, insulin secretion and liver and muscle glycogen content, as well as in vitro action on serum intestinal disaccharidase activity and albumin glycation were investigated. Oral administration of the extract and fractions reduced glycemia ...

Hydro-distilled essential oil (EO) from the leaves of the western Mediterranean and Moroccan endemic plant Tetraclinis articulata was analyzed by GC/MS and examined for its acute toxicity on mice, in order to establish the safe doses. Furthermore, the anti-Inflammatory activity was evaluated based on carrageenan and trauma induced rats paw edema and the antioxidant potential has been investigat...
