G1 Arrest and Caspase-Mediated Apoptosis in HL-60 Cells by Dichloromethane Extract of Centrosema pubescens

The American Journal of Chinese Medicine, 2010
Cell division and apoptosis are two crucial components of tumor biology and the importance of increased cell proliferation and reduced cell death have made them valid therapeutic targets. The plant kingdom is a relatively underexploited cache of novel drugs, and crude extracts of plants are known for their synergistic activity.

Development of the nitrogen fixing apparatus in the legumes, Centrosema pubescens Benth., and Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.

Planta, 1978
The sequence of events leading up to the establishment of symbiotic nitrogen-fixation were studied in two tropical legumes, Centrosema pubescens Benth, and Vigna unguiculata L. Walp. Parameters measured included fresh and dry weights, chlorophyll and leghaemoglobin contents, as well as the activities of NADH-nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1), and ...

Some aspects of the symbiotic relationships between Centrosema pubescens Benth. and strains of Rhizobium. [PDF]

open access: possible
A number of aspects of the symbiosis between Centrosema pubescens Benth. and Rhizobium strains were studied. In tests with 31 Rhizobium isolates from the cowpea cross-inoculation group including five from C. pubescens and C. plumieri (Turp.) Benth., all isolates nodulated cowpea (Vigna sinensis (L.) Endl.

Evaluation and Decontamination of Crude Oil-Polluted Soils UsingCentrosema pubescenBenth and Amendment-Support Options

International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2011
Growth performance and phytoremediation of soil of the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria artificially-contaminated with crude oil (up to 100 mL/2 kg soil) using centrosema pubescen Benth was investigated for 12 weeks. The soil samples in which the plants were established were either un-amended, or amended with NPK, or UREA or chicken manure. The extents of

Nutrient Profile of a Contaminated Soil Phytoremediated by Centrosema pubescen and Mucuna pruriens

Bioremediation Journal, 2012
ABSTRACT Soil nutrients contribute to ecosystem-level processes and are important for productivity, community structure, and fertility in terrestrial ecosystems. Crude oil–stressed agricultural soil was subjected to phytoremediation for 12 weeks, and the nutrient status thereafter was characterized to investigate the inherent effects on such soils in ...

Effect of pH on the growth, nodulation and nitrogen fixation of Centrosema pubescens and Stylosanthes gracilis

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1971
AbstractCentrosema pubescens and Stylosanthes gracilis were grown on two soils of different texture adjusted to pH values ranging from 5–7 to 8–0 by the addition of either dilute sulphuric acid or calcium carbonate. Centrosema grew best on a soil having final pH values of 6–1, while Stylosanthes grew best on a soil having a final pH value of 5–7 ...
