Perilla
Definition:
(n.) A genus of labiate herbs, of which one species (Perilla ocimoides, or P. Nankinensis) is often cultivated for its purple or variegated foliage.
Example Sentences:
(1) A model of increased microvascular permeability pulmonary edema was developed in chronically instrumented unanesthetized sheep using perilla ketone (PK).
(2) The documented causes include 3-methylindole, 4-ipomeanol and perilla ketone.
(3) Also, brightness-discrimination learning ability and retinal function were higher in the perilla group than in the group fed 5 wt% soybean oil (53% n-6 and 4.7% n-3) or safflower oil, indicating that the requirement of n-3 for the maximum responses of the nervous system is above 0.6 en% when there is 6.8 en% linoleate n-6.
(4) The use of perilla in oriental foods and medicinal preparations suggests possible hazards to human health as well.
(5) The results thus indicate that the alpha-linolenic acid (n-3)-rich perilla oil diet inhibits development of mammary gland, colon and kidney tumors as compared to linoleic acid (n-6)-rich safflower or soybean oil diet.
(6) Rats were fed an alpha-linolenic acid-rich (perilla oil) diet or a linoleic acid-rich (safflower oil) diet for 6 wk, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) were elicited by peritoneal injection of casein.
(7) In this study, Perilla frutescens produced atypical interstitial pneumonia in three of five calves to which it was given.
(8) Although the fatty acid compositions of the sulfatide and gangliosides were significantly different in the three parts of the brain, relatively little difference was observed in the fatty acids of glycolipids between the safflower group and the perilla group, suggesting that gross changes in brain glycolipids are not responsible for the differences in learning abilities between these dietary groups.
(9) Also the incidence of nephroblastomas in rats receiving perilla oil diet (0%) was significantly lower than that for the soybean oil diet group (23.8%).
(10) When examined at week 10, the concentration of fecal bile acids, known to be tumor promoters, was not significantly different among the dietary groups, and the intrarectal deoxycholic acid-induced colonic mucosal ornithine decarboxylase activity, a marker of tumor promotion, was significantly lower in perilla oil-fed group than in other groups.
(11) The mean survival time of male SHR-SP fed the perilla diet was longer than that fed the safflower diet by 17% (p less than 0.001) while the difference was 15% in female SHR-SP (p less than 0.05).
(12) Brightness-discrimination learning ability was determined to be the highest in the perilla oil-fed group, followed by the normal group, and then by the safflower group, extending our earlier observation in a different strain of rat that alpha-linolenic acid is a factor in maintaining high learning ability (Yamamoto, N., M. Saitoh, A. Moriuchi, M. Nomura, and H. Okuyama.
