Echinacea purpurea root extract mitigates hepatotoxicity, genotoxicity, and ultrastructural changes induced by hexavalent chromium via oxidative stress suppression
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2024 Mar 8. doi: 10.1007/s11356-024-32763-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEnvironmental and occupational exposure to hexavalent chromium (CrVI) is mostly renowned as a possible hepatotoxic in mammals. Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench, a phenolic-rich plant, is recurrently used for its therapeutic properties. Therefore, this investigation was done to explore whether E. purpurea (EP) root extract would have any potential health benefits against an acute dose of CrVI-induced oxidative damage and hepatotoxicity. Results revealed that GC-MS analysis of EP root extract has 26 identified components with...

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 971: Analytical Assessment of the Antioxidant Properties of the Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea L. Moench) Grown with Various Mulch Materials
This study was carried out to determine the antioxidant properties of flowers and plant stems with leaves of Echinacea purpurea grown with mulches of different colours and thicknesses. Coneflowers were grown in the Experimental Station of the Agricultural University in Kraków, Poland. The mulching materials used were black, green and brown colours of 100 g/m2 and 80 g/m2 density. In plant material, e.g., flowers or plant stems plus leaves the proximate analysis, the total polyphenol content and the ability to scavenge free radicals (ABTS, DPPH and FRAP) were determined. The results show that flower samples h...

Development of full-length infectious cDNA clones and host range identification of an echinacea strain of tobacco streak virus
Virology. 2024 Feb 11;593:110013. doi: 10.1016/j.virol.2024.110013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTobacco streak virus induces severe diseases on a wide range of plants and becomes an emerging threat to crop yields. However, the infectious clones of TSV remain to be developed for reverse genetics studies. Here, we obtained the full genome sequence of a TSV-CNB isolate and analyzed the phylogenetic characteristics. Subsequently, we developed the full-length infectious cDNA clones of TSV-CNB driven by 35 S promoter using yeast homologous recombination. Furthermore, the host range of TSV-CNB isolate was determined by Agrobact...

Exploring Echinacea purpurea ’s effect on wound healing in rats: FOXO1/MIP2 pathway modulation
AbstractThe extracellular matrix (ECM) is a crucial component in all human tissues. During injury, the ECM is damaged; wound healing phases as hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling result in ECM synthesized and return to its native state.Echinacea purpurea is one of the most important medicinal herbs and is well-known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activities. The main aim of this research was to investigate the anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties ofEchinacea treatment in rats due to the need for more scientific evidence regarding the efficacy of this medicinal pla...

Echinacoside ameliorates doxorubicin ‑induced cardiac injury by regulating GPX4 inhibition‑induced ferroptosis
Exp Ther Med. 2023 Nov 23;27(1):29. doi: 10.3892/etm.2023.12317. eCollection 2024 Jan.ABSTRACTEchinacoside (ECH) is a compound derived from the natural herbs Cistanche and Echinacea, which has considerable protective effects on heart failure (HF). HF is characterized by myocardial damage and abnormal ferroptosis. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is an important regulator of ferroptosis, which plays a role in ferroptosis-related diseases. Despite this, the therapeutic mechanisms of ECH against HF remain unknown. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the cardioprotective effect and underlying mechanisms o...
