ZitatDie Nachtkerzen (Oenothera) sind eine Pflanzengattung innerhalb der Familie der Nachtkerzengewächse (Onagraceae). Die 120 bis 200 Arten sind ursprünglich in gemäßigten bis tropischen Gebieten in der Neuen Welt verbreitet.
Besonders bekannt ist das aus ihnen gewonnene Nachtkerzenöl, welches reich an Gamma-Linolensäure ist.
ZitatNachtkerzenöl kann sowohl innerlich als auch äußerlich angewendet werden. Die in ihm enthaltenen essenziellen Fettsäuren sind im Organismus ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Zellmembranen. Sie sind an verschiedenen Wachstums- und Reparaturprozessen beteiligt und unterstützen die Cholesterinregulation im Blut. Ein gesunder Zellstoffwechsel ist eine grundlegende Voraussetzung für einen gesunden Körper.
The effect of evening primrose oil (Oenothera biennis) on the level of adiponectin and some biochemical parameters in rats with fructose induced metabolic syndrome
ZitatAs conclusion, evening primrose oil can be considered as antioxidant agent by reducing oxidative stress, increasing adiponectin levels and insulin sensitivity, anti-inflammatory properties, exhibiting anti-atherogenic effect by regulating dyslipidemia and systolic blood pressure.
Protective effects of evening primrose oil on behavioral activities, nigral microglia and histopathological changes in a rat model of rotenone-induced parkinsonism
ZitatTreatment with EPO ameliorates all the neuropathological changes of rotenone in the rat brain. In conclusion, EPO enhanced the motor performance, reduced the inflammatory marker levels, restored dopamine levels, and ameliorated the neurohistopathological lesions of rats with experimental parkinsonism, suggesting its neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects.
Evening primrose oil attenuates oxidative stress, inflammation, fibrosis, apoptosis, and ultrastructural alterations induced by metanil yellow in the liver of rat: a histological, immunohistochemical, and biochemical study
ZitatIn conclusion, EPO can protect liver against the toxic effects of Myl due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities.
Anti-inflammatory effect of combining fish oil and evening primrose oil supplementation on breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy: a randomized placebo-controlled trial
ZitatIn conclusion, this supplementation improved the PUFA status and decreased the level of IL-6 in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Consequently, this treatment may help reduce cancer complications resulting from impaired lipid metabolism and inflammation.
Evening Primrose Oil Improves Chemotherapeutic Effects in Human Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cell Lines—A Preclinical Study
ZitatResults showed that EPO reduced PDAC cell viability and increased paclitaxel efficacy. This evidence suggests that EPO may be used as a potential supplement to increase chemotherapeutic efficacy in PDAC therapy.
Evening Primrose Oil Enhances Tamoxifen’s Anticancer Activity against Breast Cancer Cells by Inducing Apoptosis, Inhibiting Angiogenesis, and Arresting the Cell Cycle
ZitatAlthough several natural compounds, such as evening primrose oil (EPO), have been shown to have anticancer properties when used alone, their combination with the anticancer medicine tamoxifen (TAM) has yet to be investigated. (...) The most significant finding of this study was the confirmation of the anticancer activity of the natural product EPO, which potentiated the activity of the anticancer drug TAM against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 BC cell lines through the induction of apoptosis, inhibiting angiogenesis and halting cell proliferation.
