Human exposure to radiation has expanded considerably in recent years, due to a wide
range of medical, agricultural, and industrial applications. Despite its beneficial utilities …

The search for efficient radioprotective agents to protect from radiation-induced toxicity, due
to planned or accidental radiation exposure, is still ongoing worldwide. Despite decades of …

Podophyllum hexandrum or Himalayan may apple is an endangered medicinal plant. The
plant is a major source of anticancer agent, podophyllotoxin. Podophyllotoxin content in is …

Radiation exposure leads to several pathophysiological conditions, including oxidative
damage, inflammation and fibrosis, thereby affecting the survival of organisms. This review …

Radiation leaves a fairly characteristic footprint in biological materials, but this is rapidly all
but obliterated by the canonical biological responses to the radiation damage. The innate …

Purpose: We examined the effects of manganese (III) meso-tetrakis (diethyl-2-5-imidazole)
porphyrin, a metalloporphyrin antioxidant (MPA), on neural tissue radiation toxicity in vivo …

This study aims at the development of a safe and effective formulation to counter the effects
of lethal irradiation. The sub‐fraction (G‐001M), prepared from Podophyllum hexandrum has …

Visualizing the present biodiversity status of Nepal, an integrated approach comprising of
biodiversity documentation, bio-prospecting, sustainable utilization and conservation has …

Objective: to evaluate the radioprotective potential of alcoholic fraction of Podophyllum
hexandrum rhizomes (rEc-2001) individually as well as in combination with Picrorhiza …

Radiation is one of the most severe causes of oxidative stress mediated by free radical flux.
This flux interferes with oxidation/reduction-based physiological mechanisms existing inside …
