Abstract: Disclosed is a total flavonoids extract of Gynura formosana Kitam., containing 80%-85% of rutin by weight percent content. The results of pharmacological experiments show that the extract can lower the activity of xanthine oxidase in the liver of a hyperuricemia model mouse and reduce the synthesis of uric acid to a certain degree and has a certain uric acid-lowering effect, and can be used as a potential drug for treating hyperuricemia or gout. The method for preparing the total flavonoids extract of Gynura formosana Kitam. comprises: after an extraction step, selecting a complex enzyme composed of enzymes with a specific composition and a specific ratio for enzymolosis, and further carrying out the step of extracting and concentrating with macroporous resin and isolating and purifying with macroporous resin, so that the HPLC purity of rutin in the resulting total flavonoids extract of Gynura formosana Kitam. reaches 80%-85%.
Abstract: A composition including a mixture of Trigonella foenum-graecum extract and bentonite. The mixture is applicable in several technological fields, including the pharmacological, cosmetic, and veterinary field. Notably, the composition is useful in the treatment of a viral infection. The composition is synergistic in the sense that the mixture of Trigonella foenum-graecum extract and bentonite has a higher efficiency than each of the components alone.

Abstract: Methods are disclosed for reducing the proliferation of a tumor cell, increasing apoptosis of a tumor cell, and/or decreasing migration of a tumor cell. These methods include contacting the tumor cell with an effective amount of solubilized ECM or a soluble fraction of extracellular matrix (ECM), thereby reducing the proliferation of the tumor cell, increasing apoptosis of the tumor cell, and/or decreasing migration of the tumor cell. Methods are also disclosed for treating a subject with a tumor. The methods include administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a soluble fraction of an ECM and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, thereby treating the tumor in the subject. In specific non-limiting examples, the tumor is a glioma and/or the ECM hydrogel is a urinary bladder ECM hydrogel.

Abstract: A process for producing a hemp powder with a preserved full spectrum nutritional complex from the whole plant. The process includes juicing fresh vegetation from the Cannabis sativa plant. The juiced product may be disposed in freezing vessels and flash-frozen at a temperature that preserves the molecular integrity of the molecular structure of the nutrients. In turn, the frozen juiced product may be freeze-dried to prepare a water-soluble powder that provides a synergistic entourage effect by preserving the full spectrum nutritional complex of the whole plant from which the powder is derived. In turn, the powder may be used in a variety of contexts.
