5 / 348 resultsresearch A Comprehensive Review on Phytochemistry and Pharmacological Effects of Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica)
This review explores the phytochemistry and phytopharmacology of Urtica dioica but reports no new experimental findings, focusing on its traditional uses and range of bioactive constituents.
research The Influence of Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica L.) Infusions on the Techno-Functionality of k-Carrageenan Hydrogels
In this study, Urtica dioica L. infusions were used to replace water in k-carrageenan hydrogels, resulting in stronger networks with reduced syneresis and altered textural properties, and the highest antioxidant potential was achieved with specific infusion conditions.
research What do we know about phytotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia?
This review discusses phytotherapy options for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia, noting some herbal agents show promise in trials for mild-moderate symptoms but more evidence is needed for others.
research URTICA DIOICA EXTRACT DOWNREGULATES THE GENE EXPRESSION OF 5Α-RII IN HACAT CELLS: POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS AGAINST ANDROGENIC SKIN DISEASES.
In this study, Urtica dioica extract was found to significantly downregulate 5-alpha-reductase type II gene expression in skin cells, suggesting potential usefulness against androgenic skin diseases.
research Computational drug discovery of potential 5α-reductase phytochemical inhibitors and hair growth promotion using in silico techniques
This study used computational methods to identify six molecules, with jamogenin being particularly promising, that effectively bind to and inhibit the enzyme linked to male pattern hair loss, suggesting these compounds could be explored further for hair growth potential.
