Tomasz Kowalczyk,Przemysław Sitarek,Ewa Skała,Monika Toma,Marzena Wielanek,Dariusz Pytel,Joanna Wieczfinska,Janusz Szemraj,Tomasz Śliwiński +8 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that M. trifoliata gives promising results as an anti-cancer agent for human glioblastoma cell lines, however, further research is necessary in view of its therapeutic use.
Establishment of hairy root cultures of Rhaponticum carthamoides (Willd.) Iljin for the production of biomass and caffeic acid derivatives.
TL;DR: Hairy roots induced from leaf explants by the transformation of Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains A4 and ATCC 15834 demonstrated the capability for the biosynthesis of such flavonoid glycosides as quercetagetin, quercETin, luteolin, and patuletin hexosides.
A preliminary study of apoptosis induction in glioma cells via alteration of the Bax/Bcl-2-p53 axis by transformed and non-transformed root extracts of Leonurus sibiricus L.

Hairy root cultures of Salvia viridis L. for production of polyphenolic compounds
TL;DR: In this paper, the UPLC-PDA-ESI-MS analysis of hydromethanolic extracts of transformed roots of S. viridis revealed the presence of 10 compounds identified as caffeic acid derivatives.
