Anticancer Podophyllotoxin Recovery from Juniper Leaves at Atmospheric and High Pressure Using Eco-Friendly Solvents.

Podophyllotoxin (PPT) is a precursor for the synthesis of drugs against cancer and other diseases. The present sources of PPT ( and ) are endangered species, with PPT production highly dependent on their growing conditions. In connection with the identification of new sources of PPT, the present study aimed to recover PPT from leaves via atmospheric or high pressure extraction methods with a focus on using eco-friendly solvents.

Junipers of Various Origins as Potential Sources of the Anticancer Drug Precursor Podophyllotoxin.

Juniper representatives are natural sources of plenty of bioactive metabolites and have been used since ancient times as folk remedies against tapeworms, warts, cancer, etc. The antiproliferative activities of junipers are attributed to podophyllotoxin (PPT), which is a precursor for the synthesis of efficient anticancer drugs. However, the natural sources of PPT, (Royle) T.

NEW TECHNOLOGIES IN TREATMENT OF FRACTURES OF THE UPPER EXTREMITIES IN PATIENTS WITH SEVERE MULTIPLE AND POLYTRAUMA.

A comparative analysis of treatment results of fractures of long bones of the upper extremities was made in 172 victims with severe polytrauma. The traditional strategy of treatment was used in the first group. The new technologies such as prognostic tactics, method of Damage control orthopedics and low-invasive osteosynthesis developed by the authors were applied in the second group.
