Effects of proanthocyanidin enriched extract from Ligaria cuneifolia on plasma cholesterol and hemorheological parameters. In vivo and In vitro studies
(Ios Press, 2014-08)
It was demonstrated that Ligaria cuneifolia (Lc) crude extract increased blood viscosity and decreased plasma cholesterol in rats. In the present study, we analyzed the Lc proanthocyanidin enriched fraction (PLc) to determine ...
Descriptive parameters of the erythrocyte aggregation phenomenon using a laser transmission optical chip
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2017-01)
The study of red blood cell (RBC) aggregation is of great interest because of its implications for human health. Altered RBC aggregation can lead to microcirculatory problems as in vascular pathologies, such as hypertension ...
In vitro alteration on erythrocytes mechanical properties by propofol, remifentanil and vecuronium
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2021-05)
Several studies report flow disturbance and microcirculation disorders upon anesthesia treatment. These alterations are often related to blood rheology changes. In this work, it was attempted to make a detailed description ...
Simultaneous Determination of Human Erythrocyte Deformability and Adhesion Energy: A Novel Approach Using a Microfluidic Chamber and the “Glass Effect”
(Humana Press, 2020-10)
The simultaneous determination of adhesion and deformability parameters of erythrocytes was carried out through a microfluidic device, which uses an inverted optical microscope with new image acquisition and analysis ...
Hemorheological action of trigonelline on in vitro glycated red blood cells
(Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Institute of Mechanics, 2017-12)
Trigonelline (T) is an alkaloid found in seeds and leaves of different plant species. Recent studies have demonstrated its lipid lowering, antioxidant and anti-diabetic activity. The objective of this work was to evaluate ...
Red blood cell alterations by in vitro action of Trichinella spiralis newborn larvae
(Peertechz, 2020-05)
Background: T. spiralis establishes an intimate contact with the host erythrocytes during the newborn larvae migration through the bloodstream to their encystment in the muscle. Objective: In the present work we study the ...
The enriched proanthocyanidin extract of Ligaria cuneifolia shows a marked hypocholesterolemic effect in rats fed with cholesterol-enriched diet
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2018-02)
Background: Ligaria cuneifolia (Lc) (R. et P.) Tiegh. (Loranthaceae) (Argentine mistletoe) is usually used in local folk medicine. Objective: We studied the effect of treatment with the Lc proanthocyanidin-enriched fraction ...
