pinellia ternata agglutinin produced in bombyx mori cells exhibits bioactivity. | pinellia ternata agglutinin (pta) is highly homologous to many other monocot mannose-binding lectins which reportedly possess antitumor activities. its production in silkworm cells has great application potential because the baculovirus expression system can produce post-translationally modified proteins at low cost. in the current study, the pta gene was cloned and expressed in silkworm cells, and the expressed protein was analyzed using a hemagglutination assay. a preliminary in vitro study on ... | 2012 | 22611529 |
cannabis, 21. biotransformation of cannabinol to its glycosides by in vitro plant tissue. | a marijuana compound, cannabinol [1], was converted to two metabolites using in vitro tissue of pinellia ternata. the structures of the metabolites were determined to be cannabinol-o-beta-d-glucopyranoside [2] and 9'-hydroxycannabinol-o-beta-d-glucopyranoside [3] by 1h nmr and 13c nmr. from the time course experiments, 1 was absorbed rapidly in the tissues and glycosylated. hydroxylation at the pentyl group occurred, and its metabolite was secreted in the medium. | 1993 | 8133296 |
an integrated global chemomics and system biology approach to analyze the mechanisms of the traditional chinese medicinal preparation eriobotrya japonica - fritillaria usuriensis dropping pills for pulmonary diseases. | traditional chinese medicine (tcm) herbal formulae provide valuable therapeutic strategies. however, the active ingredients and mechanisms of action remain unclear for most of these formulae. therefore, the identification of complex mechanisms is a major challenge in tcm research. | 2016 | 26742634 |
a cell-based high-throughput protocol to screen entry inhibitors of highly pathogenic viruses with traditional chinese medicines. | emerging viruses such as ebola virus (ebov), lassa virus (lasv), and avian influenza virus h5n1 (aiv) are global health concerns. since there is very limited options (either vaccine or specific therapy) approved for humans against these viruses, there is an urgent need to develop prophylactic and therapeutic treatments. previously we reported a high-throughput screening (hts) protocol to identify entry inhibitors for three highly pathogenic viruses (ebov, lasv, and aiv) using a human immunodefic ... | 2017 | 27704591 |
prokaryotic expression and bioactivity analysis of n-terminus domain of pinellia ternata agglutinin using alkaline phosphatase signal peptide. | pinellia ternata agglutinin (pta) from the tubers of p. ternata is a two-domain monocot mannose-binding lectin. pta-n encoding n-terminus domain of pta (pta-n) was fused with escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase signal peptide (apsp) gene by polymerase chain reaction (pcr) for secretion expression. the fused nucleotide sequence apsp-pta-n was inserted into pet-28a prokaryotic expression vector by restriction enzyme digest sites (nco i and xho i), and then overexpressed in e. coli bl21(de3) cell ... | 2013 | 23500721 |
immunochemical approach using monoclonal antibody against δ(9)-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (thca) to discern cannabis plants and to investigate new drug candidates. | a monoclonal antibody (mab-4a4) against δ9- tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (thca) showing extensive cross-reactivity against various cannabinoids was prepared. using this antibody, a competitive enzyme-linked immunoassay (elisa) was developed to detect δ9-thca in the range of 1 to 100 mg/ml. various cannabinoids including δ9-thc (δ9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid), δ8-thca (δ8-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid), δ8-thc (δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol), cbd (cannabidiol), and cbn (cannabinol) were recognized by mab ... | 2011 | 21143135 |
