Antimalarial Activity of Khaya Grandifoliola Stem-bark [PDF]

Pharmaceutical Biology, 1998
Khaya grandifoliola (Welw) CDC (Meliaceae) is widely used in West Africa for the treatment of fever. The dried powdered stem-bark of the plant was extracted with various solvents. The resulting extracts and column purified fractions therefrom were tested for their antimalarial properties using Plasmodium berghei berghei for in vivo antimalarial ...

Leveraging target enrichment and genome skimming (Hyb-Seq) of herbarium collections to unlock timber DNA barcoding. [PDF]

Appl Plant Sci
Abstract Premise DNA barcoding for timber species identification requires comprehensive reference datasets, informative DNA barcodes, and cost‐effective protocols. We developed a workflow leveraging Hyb‐Seq (target capture sequencing and genome skimming) to address these challenges, and we tested it on four genera from the mahogany family (Meliaceae ...

Biflavonoid Methylchamaejasmin and Khaya grandifoliola Extract Inhibit NLRP3 Inflammasome in THP-1 Cell Model of Neuroinflammation

Molecular Neurobiology
Neuroinflammation is a common hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), with NLRP3 inflammasome proven to be activated in microglia of AD patients' brains. In this study, a newly isolated biflavonoid (7,7'-di-O-methylchamaejasmin/M8) and a crude extract of the plant Khaya grandifoliola (KG) were investigated for their inhibitory effect on inflammasome ...
