Hepatoprotective effect of Foeniculum vulgare essential oil

Fitoterapia, 2003
Hepatoprotective activity of Foeniculum vulgare (fennel) essential oil (FEO) was studied using carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) induced liver injury model in rats. The hepatotoxicity produced by acute CCl(4) administration was found to be inhibited by FEO with evidence of decreased levels of serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase

The vascular action of aqueous extracts of Foeniculum vulgare leaves

Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 1988
The vascular effects of aqueous extracts of Foeniculum vulgare leaves were tested using pentobarbital-anaesthetised rats. An intravenous administration of the lyophilized boiled water extract of leaves produced a significant dose-related reduction in arterial blood pressure, without affecting the heart rate or respiratory rate.

Direct somatic embryogenesis from protoplasts of Foeniculum vulgare

Plant Cell Reports, 1986
Protoplasts prepared from an embryogenic cell suspension culture of fennel gave rise to somatic embryoids directly through unequal cell divisions of enlarged, ellipsoidal cells, when embedded in hormone-free LS agarose medium. On the other hand, protoplasts embedded in LS agarose medium containing 2,4-D and kinetin proliferated through unpolarized cell
