A new name for Torula glutinosa in Heteroconium. (1/2)
Torula glutinosa, a sooty mold on living leaves and stems of Eriodictyon spp. from California is illustrated and described. It shares, with the type species of Heteroconium, H. citharexyli, acropetal conidiogenesis of chains of conidia of variable length and acropetal transseptation. An unnamed synanamorph is recognized and described. (+info)Inhibitory effect of eriodictyol on IgE/Ag-induced type I hypersensitivity. (2/2)
Mast cells are the principal effector cells involved in the allergic response, through the release of histamine. We investigated the effect of eriodictyol, derived from the painted maple and yerba santa, on mast cell degranulation and on an allergic response in an animal model. We also investigated its effect on the expression of the ceramide kinase (CERK) involved in calcium-dependent degranulation, and on ceramide activation by multiple cytokines. Eriodictyol suppressed the release of beta-hexosaminidase, a marker of degranulation, and the expression of interleukin (IL)-4 mRNA. It inhibited the expression of CERK mRNA, reduced the ceramide concentration in antigen-stimulated mast cells, and suppressed the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction in mice in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that eriodictyol can inhibit mast cell degranulation through inhibition of ceramide kinase, and that it might potentially serve as an anti-allergic agent. (+info)"Eriodictyon" is a genus of flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae. It includes several species commonly known as yerba santa or consumptive weed, which are native to western North America. The name "Eriodictyon" comes from the Greek words "erion," meaning wool, and "dyton," meaning thread, referring to the woolly hairs on the stems and leaves of these plants.
Yerba santa has a long history of use in traditional medicine by indigenous peoples of North America. The leaves were used to treat respiratory ailments such as asthma, coughs, and colds, as well as digestive issues like stomachaches and diarrhea. The plant contains various chemical compounds with potential medicinal properties, including flavonoids, tannins, and essential oils.
However, it's important to note that while some studies suggest that Eriodictyon may have therapeutic benefits, more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety. Additionally, the use of yerba santa as a medicine should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as it can interact with certain medications and have side effects.
