The Antirachitic Activity of Solanum glaucophyllum Leaves

Planta Medica, 1980
Solanum glaucophyllum leaves, collected from stands growing in tropical and subtropical areas, have been assayed for their antirachitic activity. The equivalent to 24 - 120 micrograms of cholecalciferol per gram of dry leaves has been measured the rachitic chick bioassay.

Calciotropic Principle of Solanum glaucophyllum in Broiler Chickens

open access: yesInternational Journal of Poultry Science, 2012
Solanum glaucophyllum (duraznillo blanco), which causes calcinosis of cattle in Argentina , contains the active metabolite of vitamin D3 either free or conjugated with carbohydrates as 1,25-(OH) 2 vitamin D3-glycoside. Economic relevance of S. glaucophyllum could be seen as being the causal factor of toxicosis of grazing cattle and also as a valuable ...

Stimulation of Bone Resorption in Organ Culture by Salt-Free Extracts of Solanum Glaucophyllum

Endocrine Research Communications, 1975
Addition of a desalted aqueous extract made from dried leaves of Solanum glaucophyllum produced a marked stimulation of bone resorption in a culture system in vitro. This result indicates that, like the biologically active forms of vitamin D, the active material in the plant not only stimulates intestinal calcium absorption but increases bone ...

Distribution of calcitriol activity in Solanum glaucophyllum plants and cell cultures

Phytochemistry, 1989
Abstract Distribution studies showed for the first time that calcitriol activity is present not only in leaves, but also in berries, stems and roots of Solanum glaucophyllum plants, in both aglycone and glycoside form. Berries contained the highest concentration of active derivatives and leaves the lowest.
