International Journal of Biomedical Science, 2015 Glucosinolates were previously reported as physiologically-important constituents present in Peruvian Maca (Lepidium peruvianum Chacon) and linked to various therapeutic functions of differently-colored Peruvian Maca hypocotyls. In two separate Trials, three colours of Maca hypocotyls "Black", "Red" and "Yellow" (termed "Maca phenotypes"), were ...

In vivo and in vitro neuroprotective effects of maca polysaccharide
Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2022 Objective: To explore the protective effect of MP on oxidative damage in vivo and in vitro. Methods: A mouse aging model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of D-galactose (D-gal), and pathological changes in the hippocampal ultrastructure were observed by transmission electron microscopy.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Using microscopy and 3D confocal imaging on seven cadaveric eyes, we identified sympathetic nerves closely associated with β₂‐adrenergic receptor‐expressing macrophages in the human ciliary body (CB). These findings suggest a sympathetic‐macrophage neuroimmune link in the CB, potentially influencing ocular inflammation and degeneration, warranting ...

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.Daily bias‐correction aggregated to monthly scale preserves the cross‐correlation between precipitation and temperature better than direct monthly bias‐correction. The Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) method outperforms Quantile Regression (QR) and MACA, yielding lower bias and higher accuracy, highlighting its suitability for multivariate climate ...
