Common Names: seabuckthorn, seaberry
Researchers evaluated FeO nanoparticles from different plant extracts against liver cancer cells. FeO nanoparticles from plant X were most effective, decreasing gene/protein levels of X and increasing levels of Y and Z. This information could lead to new treatments for liver cancer.
SBE from sea buckthorn has protective effects on cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, including alleviating airway inflammation in mice. Further research is needed to understand its potential benefits for COPD.
Innovative phyto-nanomedicine with sea buckthorn polyphenols and metformin inhibits triple-negative breast cancer cells and induces regulated cell death. Promising potential for effective and less genotoxic TNBC therapy.
This study identified 92 MADS-box genes in sea buckthorn, showing Type II genes may have a more significant role in flower development. ABCDE model genes may play a crucial role in organ identity. These findings can help understand the regulatory mechanism of sex differentiation in sea buckthorn.
Researchers optimized extraction and identified 13 triterpenoid acids in Hippophae rhamnoides L. pomace. TPF showed strong inhibition of α-glucosidase, reducing postprandial glucose levels and improving serum lipid profiles. Pomace may be valuable for functional foods.
Isorhamnetin (ISO) is a natural compound with antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and organ-protective properties. It is cost-effective, widely available, and shows minimal side effects. Research highlights ISO's potential for new drug development and various health benefits.
Researchers fermented seabuckthorn seed meal with bacteria to create peptides with hypoglycemic activity. They found optimal conditions and identified effective components. Results can aid in developing functional foods for blood sugar control.
Scientists investigated plants adapted to high-salt environments in France for potential antiviral properties against SARS-CoV-2. The plant showed the highest antiviral activity, and six cinnamoyl triterpenoid compounds were identified as potential antiviral agents against coronaviruses.
Researchers investigated the role of DNA methylation patterns in the development of osteoarthritis. Understanding this could lead to novel therapies for managing this painful and costly disease.
This study investigated the effects of an ethanol extract on acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in rats. The extract reduced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, indicating its potential as a protective treatment for ARDS.
Researchers isolated bioactive compounds from sea buckthorn fruits. Triterpenes and fatty acids promoted osteoblast differentiation and increased expression of bone formation-related genes. Ursolic aldehyde showed the most potent effect and could potentially be used to promote bone health.
L. was evaluated for treating polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) in rats. It improved hormonal imbalance, insulin sensitivity, ovarian health, and lipid profile. Nano-emulsion had better effects, possibly due to improved bioavailability.
Scientists used the stem extract of a Himalayan plant to synthesize copper nanoparticles. These nanoparticles showed potential as an anticancer agent, reducing cell viability and inducing apoptosis in HeLa cancer cell lines.
Sea buckthorn seed extract prevents cell apoptosis, reduces oxidative stress damage, and enhances antioxidant capacity, according to this study. It has potential applications in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical research.
The study found that sea buckthorn leaf extract (SBL) reduced kidney damage in diabetic mice by decreasing the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and oxidative stress. This suggests that SBL could be a potential treatment for diabetic renal complications.
This study investigates the chemical features, active ingredients, and anti-diabetes mechanism of Hippophae rhamnoides fruit. Results provide insights for its traditional use in diabetes treatment.
Seabuckthorn, rich in flavonoids, treats depression in mice by regulating neurochemical levels, reducing inflammation, and modulating gut microbiota. Potential health food supplement for major depressive disorders.
This study examined the effects of saponified lipophilic berry extract (LSBE) on breast cancer cell lines. LSBE was found to inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with a mean IC50 of 16 µM. It also demonstrated strong antioxidant activity, reducing ROS levels in both cell lines. Additionally, LSBE induced significant alterations in late-stage apoptotic cells. These findings suggest that the carotenoids in LSBE may have potential as nutraceuticals in breast cancer therapy. Further research should be conducted to explore this possibility.
Hippophae rhamnoides L. has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to treat heart ailments, rheumatism, and brain disorders. Recent studies suggest that its polysaccharide (HRP) may improve cognitive impairment in mice with Alzheimer's disease, but the protective mechanism remains unclear.
Isorhamnetin glycosides (IGs) found in plants have various health benefits, such as fighting cancer, diabetes, obesity, and thrombosis. They can be used in foods and have high bioavailability.
Sea buckthorn, a plant able to withstand harsh environments, can have high serotonin levels. Researchers investigated using non-fruit parts of sea buckthorn as a natural source of serotonin extracted through a mechanochemical method using woody shoots. Serotonin varied between plant varieties, regions, harvesting time, and was prone to degradation. Preparation techniques were important for maintaining serotonin levels. Maximum extract was achieved using air circulation at 60-80°C. Annual concentration changes were up to 10-fold. Industrial cultivation and harvesting was considered.
