Effects of Walnut Bark Extract on the Human Platelet Aggregation, Adhesion, and Plasmatic Coagulation In Vitro.

Thrombosis is the formation of a clot within a blood vessel. Antithrombotic drugs are used for treating thrombosis, which can be the cause of hemorrhage. Currently, there is a need to discover novel antithrombotic drugs.

Phytochemical Profile and Antioxidant Activity of L Growing in Morocco.

Background: L (NS) is a powerful antioxidant and medicinal plant with many therapeutic applications particularly in traditional medicine for respiratory, gastrointestinal, rheumatic, and inflammatory disorders, as well as cancer.

Objective: The aim of this study is to extract the active ingredients from the Moroccan L and determine its antioxidant properties. We hypothesize that the separation of the compounds from L has either a positive or negative effect on antioxidants.

Origanum majorana L. extract exhibit positive cooperative effects on the main mechanisms involved in acute infectious diarrhea.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Origanum majorana L. (Lamiaceae) is commonly used in Moroccan folk medicine to treat infantile colic, abdominal discomfort and diarrhea. Liquid stools and abdominal discomfort observed in acute infectious diarrhea are the consequences of imbalance between intestinal water secretion and absorption in the lumen, and relaxation of smooth muscle surrounding the intestinal mucosa.

Myorelaxant Activity of essential oil from Origanum majorana L. on rat and rabbit.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Origanum majorana L. (Lamiaceae) was usually used in Moroccan folk medicine to treat infantile colic and abdominal discomfort.

Materials And Methods: The essential oil from the aerial part of the dry Origanum majorana L.

Chemical composition, vasorelaxant, antioxidant and antiplatelet effects of essential oil of Artemisia campestris L. from Oriental Morocco.

Background: Artemisia campestris L. (Asteraceae) is a medicinal herb traditionally used to treat hypertension and many other diseases. Hence, this study is aimed to analyze the essential oil of A.

Flavonoids purified from parsley inhibit human blood platelet aggregation and adhesion to collagen under flow.

Introduction: Blood platelets are directly involved in both haemostatic and pathologic thrombotic processes, through their adhesion, secretion and aggregation. In this study, we investigated the effect of genins (aglycone flavonoids without sugar group) isolated from parsley (Petroselinum crispum) leaves in vitro on human platelet aggregation and adhesion to a collagen-coated surface under physiologic flow conditions.

Materials And Methods: The aggregation and adhesion studies were monitored after pre-incubation of platelets with genins.
