Journal ArticleDOI

Cytotoxic activity of Thai medicinal plants against human cholangiocarcinoma, laryngeal and hepatocarcinoma cells in vitro

Wiratchanee Mahavorasirikul, +4 more
- 28 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: The ethanolic extracts from five plants and one folklore recipe showed potent cytotoxic activity against CL-6 cell, and HepG2 appears to be the most resistant to the tested extracts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Field studies on the transmission of the human liver fluke, Opisthorchis viverrini, in northeast Thailand: population changes of the snail intermediate host.

Warren Y. Brockelman, +4 more
- 01 Oct 1986 - 
TL;DR: Control of opisthorchiasis through snail control does not appear practical because of the widespread distribution of the snails, their ability to survive in very unstable habitats, and for other reasons concerned with the existence of the fish host between snail and human hosts.
Journal Article

Opisthorchis viverrini : intensity and rates of infection in cyprinoid fish from an endemic focus in Northeast Thailand.

S. Vichasri, +2 more
- 01 Mar 1982 - 
TL;DR: It is invalid to assume as indicated by the former workers that any potential intermediate fish host that does not have the O. viverrini metacercariae in its pectoral fin muscle in negative with opisthorchiasis is invalid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular cloning and analysis of stage and tissue-specific expression of cathepsin B encoding genes from Fasciola gigantica.

Krai Meemon, +8 more
- 01 Jul 2004 - 
TL;DR: The switching off of the cat-B2 andCat-B3 genes during the maturation of the parasites implicates that these enzymes may be involved in digesting host tissues during penetration and migration to the liver, whereas cat- B1 present in all stages may perform general digestive function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anticancer activities against cholangiocarcinoma, toxicity and pharmacological activities of Thai medicinal plants in animal models

Tullayakorn Plengsuriyakarn, +6 more
- 27 Mar 2012 - 
TL;DR: Results from acute and subacute toxicity tests both in mice and rats indicate safety profiles of all the test materials in a broad range of dose levels and reveal promising anti-inflammatory (ZO, PPF, and AL), analgesic (CUR and PPF), antipyretic, and anti-ulcer activities.
