Studies on palauan medicinal herbs. II. Activation of mouse macrophages RAW 264.7 by Ongael, leaves of Phaleria cumingii (Meisn.) F. Vill. and its acylglucosylsterols. (1/9)
The extract of Ongael [leaves of Phaleria cumingii (MEISN.) F. VILL.], a Palauan medicinal herb, enhanced an in vitro phagocytic activity of mouse macrophages RAW 264.7 cells (RAW 264.7). Activity-guided fractionation of the Ongael extract by the in vitro phagocytosis assay using RAW 264.7 led to the isolation of a mixture of acylglucosylsterols (1) as an active constituent along with other inactive constituents, tetracosanol and mangiferin. On the basis of chemical modifications and spectral analyses, the compound 1 was deduced to be a mixture of the known 3-O-(6-O-acyl-beta-D-glucosyl)-beta-sitosterols, the acyl moiety being mainly palmitoyl (57%), oleoyl (12%) and alpha-linolenoyl (12%) with small amount of stearoyl (7%) and linoleoyl (4%).

Despite the increasing biological and economic impacts of invasive species, little is known about the evolutionary mechanisms that favor geographic range expansion and evolution of invasiveness in introduced species. Here, we focus on the invasive wetland grass Phalaris arundinacea L. and document the evolutionary consequences that resulted from multiple and uncontrolled introductions into North America of genetic material native to different European regions. Continental-scale genetic variation occurring in reed canarygrass' European range has been reshuffled and recombined within North American introduced populations, giving rise to a number of novel genotypes. This process alleviated genetic bottlenecks throughout reed canarygrass' introduced range, including in peripheral populations, where depletion of genetic diversity is expected and is observed in the native range. Moreover, reed canarygrass had higher genetic diversity and heritable phenotypic variation in its invasive range relative to its native range. The resulting high evolutionary potential of invasive populations allowed for rapid selection of genotypes with higher vegetative colonization ability and phenotypic plasticity. Our results show that repeated introductions of a single species may inadvertently create harmful invaders with high adaptive potential. Such invasive species may be able to evolve in response to changing climate, allowing them to have increasing impact on native communities and ecosystems in the future. More generally, multiple immigration events may thus trigger future adaptation and geographic spread of a species population by preventing genetic bottlenecks and generating genetic novelties through recombination.

(+info)Phalaris arundinacea (reed canarygrass) grass staggers in beef cattle. (5/9)
Four adult mixed-breed beef cows from a cow-calf operation in West Virginia were referred to the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine in March 2009 with weakness, ataxia, hind limb paresis progressing to lateral recumbency, and death within 2-3 days. Histologically, there was accumulation of light brown, granular pigment in neurons of the ventral gray horns of the spinal cord (more severe in thoracic and lumbar sections), brain stem, and pons, resulting in distortion and bulging of the cell body and displacement of the Nissl substance, suggestive of Phalaris sp. grass toxicosis. The most severely affected cow had accumulation of dark green-brown pigment in renal tubular epithelial cells. Reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) was identified in pastures, and the concentration of tryptamine alkaloids in new leaf blades was approximately 0.2% on a wet weight basis. These alkaloids are serotonergic receptor agonists, resulting in neurologic "staggers" in ruminants. Delayed onset times of up to 4-5 months have been reported in sheep after removal from Phalaris sp. pastures. Distribution of pigment in serotonergic tracts of the midbrain, brain stem, and spinal cord with Phalaris sp. toxicoses is distinct and differs from lipofuscin. Electron microscopy confirmed that the pigment was not lipofuscin. From these findings, a diagnosis of delayed P. arundinacea toxicosis was made. Over a 2-month period, 18 cows died with similar clinical signs. (+info)Interaction of 8-hydroxyquinoline with soil environment mediates its ecological function. (6/9)

(+info)"Phalaris" is not a medical term itself, but it does refer to a genus of plants that includes several species of ornamental grasses and grains. Some of these species contain alkaloids that can be toxic if ingested, which has led to their use in veterinary medicine as an antidote for certain types of poisoning. However, the use of Phalaris in a medical context is not common. If you have more specific information or context about "Phalaris" in a medical sense, I would be happy to try and provide further clarification.
'Carex plant' is a genus of small perennial plants that are commonly known as sedges. These plants belong to the family Cyperaceae and there are over 2,000 different species found worldwide. Carex plants can vary in size, shape, and appearance depending on the specific species, but they generally have narrow, grass-like leaves and triangular stems.
Some Carex species produce flowers and seeds, while others reproduce through rhizomes or underground stems. These plants are often found growing in wetlands, marshes, and other moist environments, although some species can tolerate drier conditions as well. In a medical context, certain Carex species may have potential medicinal uses, such as anti-inflammatory or diuretic properties, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
