Curcuma  longa - (turmeric) - 217
Different extraction methods for the analysis of natural dyes in historical textiles including Curcuma longa L. were compared using high-performance liquid chromatography.
» Valianou 2009
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy has been developed as a direct, extractionless, nonhydrolysis tool to detect lake pigments and colorants of various classes including natural colorant turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) in various artist media.
» Brosseau 2009
Thirteen curcuminoids including 5 new compounds as 1,5-dihydroxy-1,7-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4,6-heptadiene-3-one, were isolated from Curcuma longa for the first time & structures of these compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses, especially 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy.
» Li 2009a
A high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric method has been developed for the simultaneous analysis of three minor curcuminoids in the crude extract of Curcuma longa L. [Article in Chinese]
» Li 2009b
Administration of Dihar, a polyherbal formulation from 8 herbs inclg. Curcuma longa, to diabetic rats significantly reduced the levels of lipid paroxidation and increased the activities of antioxidant enzymes, suggesting Dihar may be beneficial for treatment of type 1 diabetes.
» Patel 2009
Bigger and stronger rhizomes should be chosen as seeds as the different seminal rhizomes affected the growth, quality and quantity of Curcuma longa root. [Article in Chinese]
» Li 2009c
Curcumin (Curcuma longa), has been reported to have immense potentiality for use in cancer chemotherapy because of its control over the mechanisms of cell survival, proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis.
» Das 2009
Two additional type III polyketide synthases, named CURS2 and CURS3, that are capable of curcuminoid synthesis from the herb Curcuma longa were identified and characterized.
» Katsuyama 2009
Effect of various extracts of triherbs from Azadirachta indica, Ocimum sanctum & Curcuma longa on innate immune mechanisms such as phagocytosis activity, respiratory burst activity & lysozyme activity and disease resistance in goldfish (Carassius auratus) against Aeromonas hydrophila was reported.
» Harikrishnan 2009
The inflammatory cartilage explant model may be useful for studying the effects of curcumin, derived from rhizomes of the plant Curcuma longa, on inflammatory pathways and gene expression in IL-1beta-stimulated chondrocytes.
» Clutterbuck 2009
Curcumin, an active principle contained in rhizome of Curcuma longa, caused a concentration-dependent increase of glucose uptake into skeletal muscle isolated from Wistar rats and the action was inhibited by pirenzepine at sufficient concentration to block muscarinic M-1 cholinoceptor.
» Cheng 2009
The in vitro evaluation of the effects of Curcuma longa and Curcuma sp., as well as isolated major curcuminoids on intestinal P-gp functions shows that curcumin and demethoxycurcumin could inhibit P-gp but bisdemethoxycurcumin may modulate the function of other efflux transporters such as MRP.
» Ampasavate 2009
It is shown that curcumin, a polyphenol compound derived from Curcuma longa, acts in bladder urothelial cancer, possibly downregulating NF-kappaB-related genes, and could be an option in the treatment of urothelial neoplasms.
» Leite 2009
It is suggested that curcumin, a polyphenolic compound & the active component of Curcuma longa, could reduce cell viability through prohibiting the initiation of protein synthesis by modulating eIF2alpha and eIF4E.
» Chen 2009
Comparison and correlative analysis of trace elements was carried out by using flames atomic absorption spectrometry in five kinds of radix curcumae including Curcuma longa L. [Article in Chinese]
» Tian 2008
3 dihydro curcuminoids were isolated from cultured cell clumps and their distribution in various parts of turmeric (Curcuma longa) were studied.
» Kita 2009
The complete (1)H and (13)C NMR characterization of naturally occurring curcumin, bis-demethoxycurcumin and new synthetic glucosyl-curcuminoids from Curcuma longa L. is reported.
» Saladini 2009
A poly-herbal formulation, which comprises aqueous lyophilized leaf extracts of Hippophae rhamnoides L. and Aloe vera L. and the ethanol rhizome extract of Curcuma longa L., possesses significant wound healing potential in both normal as well as chronic diabetic wounds model.
» Gupta 2008
The ethanol extract of Curcuma longa proved to be an attenuated agent against Toxoplasma gondii (RH strain) tachyzoites in the mice peritoneal fluid by two incubation methods.
» Al-Zanbagi 2008
It is shown that in Parkes strain mice, Curcuma longa treatment causes reversible suppression of spermatogenesis and fertility, thereby suggesting the potential of this plant in the regulation of male fertility.
» Mishra 2009
The hypotensive and bradycardic effects of Curcuma longa and its potent vasodilation of rat mesenteric arteries was demonstrated & these effects may, in part, be due to the inhibition of extracellular Ca(2+) influx and/or inhibition of intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization from Phe-sensitive stores.
» Adaramoye 2009
The Taguchi based optimization technique was adapted for the process optimization of ultrasound assisted extraction of Curcuma longa to identify the effect of four major factors: extraction time, solvent viscosity, grinding degree and solvent volume on the percentage extraction of curcumin.
» Mandal 2009
Clinical evaluation of Herbavate cream, a topical polyherbal formulation with 6 ingredients inclg Curcuma longa, on 150 outpatients with a clinical diagnosis of eczema found it to be an attractive alternative option for the management of outpatients with eczema.
