Oenothera biennis cell culture produce lignans activating Piezo1 triggering the Myosin Light Chain Kinase depending pathways
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2023 Sep 21;681:36-40. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.09.056. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPiezo1 and Piezo2 are mechanoreceptors involved in sensing both internal and external mechanical forces converting them in electrical signals to the brain. Piezo1 is mainly expressed in the endothelial system and in epidermis sensing shear stress and light touch. The internal traction forces generated by Myosin Light Chain Kinase (MYLK) activate Piezo1, regulating cell contraction. We observed Oenothera biennis cell culture hydro-soluble extract (ObHEx) activated MYLK regulating cell contraction ability. The ai...

Nitrogen Deposition Effects on Invasive and Native Plant Competition: Implications for Future Invasions
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2023 May 20;259:115029. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115029. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNitrogen (N) deposition has increased dramatically in recent decades, which is significantly affecting the invasion and growth of exotic plants. Whether N deposition leads to invasive alien species becoming competitively superior to native species remains to be investigated. In the present study, an invasive species (Oenothera biennis L.) and three co-occurring native species (Artemisia argyi Lévl. et Vant., Inula japonica Thunb., and Chenopodium album L.) were grown in a monoculture (two seedlings of the same ...

Comparative Study of the Effect of Vaginal use of Primrose Oil with Misoprostol on Cervical Preparation of Prim Gravid Women: A Double-blind Clinical Trial
CONCLUSION: Misoprostol and primrose oil administration appear to positively affect cervical readiness. Primrose oil resulted in significantly better Bishop Scores and fewer cesarean sections compared to misoprostol in pregnancy 40 weeks and more.PMID:37200751 | PMC:PMC10186053 | DOI:10.4103/abr.abr_30_22 (Source: Biomed Res)

Comparison of Misoprostol and Evening Primrose on Cervical Preparation Before Gynecological Surgery
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evening primrose oil(EPO) for cervical ripening before gynecologic procedures and compare it to misoprostol. In this study,40 hysteroscopy, dilation and curettage (D&C) candidates were enrolled. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either 2000 mg vaginal EPO (n = 20) or 200 μg vaginal misoprostol (n = 20) two hours before the expected procedure. The measured outcomes were the size of the Hegar dilator that passed through the cervix effortlessly, uterine cervicovaginal complications, and Drug-related side effects. The two groups were not significantly differ...

Phytotherapy in paediatric skin disorders- a systematic literature review
CONCLUSIONS: Based on the application of the Jadad score, eight out of 17 of the studies examined were of low quality. Yet we found some indication that evening primrose oil may be effective for treating atopic dermatitis in children, while comfrey appears to have a positive effect on wound healing. Interestingly, none of the studies found positive effects for treating skin disorders with aloe vera or chamomile.PMID:36958415 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctim.2023.102942 (Source: Complementary Therapies in Medicine)
