Abstract
. Sambucus racemosa subsp. pendula (SRP) is an endemic plant of Korea, exclusively found on Ulleungdo Island. SRP is widely used as both a traditional medicine and food source. However, there is a lack of research on the phar‑ macological activities of SRP. Therefore, the present study aimed to explore the potential use of SRP leaves (SRPL) as a natural immunostimulant by analyzing its macrophage acti‑ vation properties and the underlying mechanisms of action. Among the various extraction conditions, SRPL (AE20‑SRPL) extracted with 100% distilled water at 20˚C induced the highest nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 cells. Thus, the further studies were performed using AE20‑SRPL.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
