Sargodha district is one of the least studied regions of Pakistan regarding its ethnobotanical values. This paper is the first report related to the documentation and conservation status of the tree species in the Sargodha district, and their folk ethnobotanical uses. An interview base survey was conducted in the study area in 2010-2013. The ethnobotanical data revealed the use of 100 tree species (6 gymnosperms, 94 angiosperms) belonging to 77 genera (6 gymnosperms, 71 angiosperms) and 39 families (4 gymnosperms, 35 angiosperms), with the Fabaceae ranking first with 19 tree species, followed by the Moraceae (12 species). Tree species like Aegle marmelos, Butea monosperma, Diospyrus malabarica, Gmelina arborea, Kigelia africana, Manilkara hexandra, Manilkara zapota, Mimusops elengi, Nyctanthes arbor-tristis, Putranjiva roxburghii, Terminalia arjuna and Terminalia bellerica are not only unique in their medicinal value but also interesting because of their unusual occurrence here. Thevetia peruviana, Cassia fistula, Celtis australis, Delonix regia, Diospyrus malabarica, Grevillea robusta, Haplophragma adenophylum, Jacaranda mimosifolia, Lagerstroemia speciosa, Plumeria rubra, Pterospermum acerifolium, Roystonea regia, Taxodium distichum and Tectona grandis are included among the worth looking ornamental tree species. Capparis decidua, Dalbergia sissoo, Tamarix aphylla, Tamarix dioica, Prosopis cineraria and Ziziphus mauritiana are the most commonly used timber species. Other common ethnobotanical utilization of these trees includes either sheltering or fuel or agricultural uses. Lack of awareness about the potential uses of these species, and particularly ignorance of the concerned authorities, have led to a decline in the population of this precious tree flora. Documentation of this tree flora, and as-sociated indigenous knowledge, can be used as a basis for developing management plans for conservation and sustainable use of this flora in the study area. A well-organized management is critical to restore and conserve this endangered natural resource in the District Sargodha, Pakistan. The immense medicinal and timber value of these tree species make it necessary to promote their conservation to simultaneously alleviate the poverty and improve the socio-economic status of the study area. 相似文献

To evaluate whether in classical galactosemia galactose (Gal), galactose-1-phosphate (Gal-1-P) and galactitol (Galtol) affect brain acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, various concentrations (1-16 mM) of these compounds were preincubated with brain homogenates of suckling rats as well as with pure eel Electroforus electricus AChE at 37 degrees C for 1 h. Initially, Galtol (up to 2.0 mM) increased (25%) AChE activity which decreased. thereafter, reaching the control value in high Galtol concentrations. Gal-1-P decreased gradually the enzyme activity reaching a plateau (38%), when incubated with 8-16 mM. However, when the usually found 2 mM of Galtol and 2 mM of Gal-1-P, concentrations in galactosemia were added in the incubation mixture simultaneously, brain AChE was stimulated (16%). Galtol or Gal-1-P modulated brain AChE as well as enzyme activity of E.electricus in the same way. Gal, Glucose (Glu) and glucose-1-phosphate (Glu-1-P) had no effect on AChE activity. It is suggested that Galtol as well as Gal-1-P can affect acetylcholine degradation acting directly on AChE molecule. Consequently the direct action of these substances on the enzyme might explain the brain cholinergic dysfunction in untreated galactosemia patients. 相似文献

High levels of phenylalanine (Phe) in blood have been shown to reduce dopamine (DA) and noradrenaline (NA) production. Leptin levels rise with increasing adiposity in rodents and humans acting as a negative feedback adipostatic signal to brain centers. The aim of this study was to evaluate leptin plasma levels in phenylketonuria (PKU) patients adhering to their special diet and in those on a 'loose diet'. Forty-nine patients with classical PKU were divided into two groups. Those in group A (n = 21) adhered very strictly to their diet (Phe: 0.15 +/- 0.04 mmol/l) and those in group B (n = 28) were on a 'loose diet' (Phe: 0.8 +/- 0.04 mmol/l). Thirty healthy children of comparable age served as controls. Both patients and controls were in pubertal stage 0 (Tanner). BMI (kg/m(2)) was evaluated in all the members of the groups. Their daily nutrients were calculated with a 7-day dietary protocol. Leptin was evaluated by RIA, and Phe and Tyrosine with an amino acid autoanalyser. Adrenaline (A), NA and DA were measured by an HPLC method. Plasma leptin in group B patients (28.4 +/- 2.0 ng/ml) was significantly increased as compared to group A patients (16.8 +/- 2. 6 ng/ml) and controls (17.8 +/- 3.0 ng/ml; p < 0.001). Plasma DA, A, and NA in group B was lower than in group A and controls. Additionally, leptin negatively correlated with A and DA, whereas Phe positively correlated with the hormone in all groups. Leptin, also, correlated with BMI only in group A and controls. Additionally, the hormone negatively correlated with the total energy intake only in group A (r = -0.43, p < 0.01) and in controls (r = -0.040, p < 0.01). It is suggested that the disregulation of the neuroendocrine system as well as the high Phe blood levels might play an important role in the increased leptin concentrations in PKU patients on a 'loose diet'. 相似文献
