Abstract
Understanding the anatomical traits of the foliar epidermis is essential for making precise species identification and categorization. In this study, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the taxonomically significant foliar epidermal traits of Hydrangea luteovenosa and H. serrata. The qualitative and quantitative traits observed included the epidermal cell form, cuticle presence, trichome morphology, stomatal type, and guard cell features. H. serrata had a thin and smooth cuticle, and epidermal cells organized compactly into cubic or hexagonal shapes. The stomata were of the anomocytic type and dispersed, while the trichomes were straightforward, unbranched, and distributed sparsely. The guard cells had distinct cell walls and a kidney-shaped morphology. These crucial traits for taxonomy were in line with an epidermis composed of three to five layers. Similar polygonal epidermal cells with a compact arrangement were observed in H. luteovenosa, together with a thin and smooth cuticle. The stomata were anomocytic and dispersed, while the trichomes were straightforward, unbranched, and sparsely distributed. The guard cells have distinct cell walls and a kidney-shaped morphology. The traits were indicative of an epidermal structure with three to five layers. These traits helped correctly identify and categorize these two species of Hydrangea. In addition to assisting in the taxonomic classification of these species and advancing knowledge of their ecological and evolutionary links, the SEM study provided insightful information into the structural variety of these species. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Microscopic characteristics of H. luteovenosa and H. serrata Understanding the anatomical traits of the foliar epidermis is essential for precise species identification and categorization.

Abstract
Rapid and sensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is of great significance for cancer patients. Here, molybdenum (Mo) was doped into bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) by one-pot hydrothermal method forming porous tremella Bi2MoO6 nanocomposites with a larger specific surface area than the spherical structure. Then, a new kind of hydrangea-like TiO2/Bi2MoO6 porous nanoflowers (NFs) was prepared by doping titanium into Bi2MoO6, where titanium dioxide (TiO2) grew in situ on the surface of Bi2MoO6 nanoparticles (NPs). The hydrangea-like structure provides larger specific surface area, higher electron transfer ability and biocompatibility as well as more active sites conducive to the attachment of anti-carcinoembryonic antigen (anti-CEA) to TiO2/Bi2MoO6 NFs. A novel label-free electrochemical immunosensor was then constructed for the quantitative detection of CEA using TiO2/Bi2MoO6 NFs as sensing platform, showing a good linear relationship with CEA in the concentration range 1.0 pg/mL ~ 1.0 mg/mL and a detection limit of 0.125 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The results achieved with the designed immunosensor are comparable with many existing immunosensors used for the detection of CEA in real samples.

Abstract
MAIN CONCLUSION Plant growth regulators, sucrose concentration, and light quality significantly impact in vitro regeneration of 'Harmony'. Blue light promotes photomorphogenesis by enhancing light energy utilization, adjusting transcription of light signal genes, and altering hormone levels. Hydrangea quercifolia cv. 'Harmony', celebrated for lush green foliage and clusters of white flowers, has been extensively researched for its regenerative properties. Regeneration in stem segments, leaves, and petioles is facilitated by exogenous auxin and cytokinins (CTKs), with the concentration of sucrose (SC) being a key determinant for shoot regeneration from leaves. The study also highlights the significant impact of light conditions on photomorphogenesis. With an increase in the proportion of red (R) light, there is an inhibitory effect, leading to a reduction in leaf area, a decrease in the quantum yield of PSII (ΦPSII), and an increase in non-photochemical quenching (ΦNPQ) and non-regulated energy dissipation in PSII (ΦNO). Conversely, blue (B) light enhances growth, characterized by an increase in leaf area, elevated ΦPSII, and stable ΦNPQ and ΦNO levels. Additionally, B light induces the upregulation of HqCRYs, HqHY5-like, HqXTH27-like, and HqPHYs genes, along with an increase in endogenous CTKs levels, which positively influence photomorphogenesis independent of HqHY5-like regulation. This light condition also suppresses the synthesis of endogenous gibberellins (GA) and brassinosteroids (BR), further facilitating photomorphogenesis. In essence, B light is fundamental in expediting photomorphogenesis in 'Harmony', demonstrating the vital role in plant growth and development.

Abstract
Root rot caused by Fusarium oxysporum Schltdl. is a newly identified disease in oakleaf hydrangea. Some cultivars such as Pee Wee and Queen of Hearts grown in pot-in-pot container systems showed root rot symptoms after late spring frost in May 2018 with 40 and 60% incidence in the infected nursery, respectively. This experiment was carried out to evaluate the tolerance among different hydrangea cultivars against root rot caused by F. oxysporum. Fifteen hydrangea cultivars from four different species were selected, and rooted cuttings were prepared from new spring flushes. Twelve plants from each cultivar were transplanted in a 1-gallon pot. Half of transplanted plants (six single plants) were inoculated by drenching 150 ml of F. oxysporum conidial suspension to maintain the concentration of 1 × 106 conidia/ml. Half of the plants remain noninoculated (control) and were drenched with sterile water. After 4 months, root rot was assessed using a scale of 0 to 100% root area affected, and recovery of F. oxysporum was recorded by plating 1-cm root sections in Fusarium selective medium. Fusaric acid (FA) and mannitol were extracted from the roots of inoculated and noninoculated plants to see the effect and role on pathogenesis. Further, mannitol concentration was analyzed using absorption wavelength in a spectrophotometer, and FA was analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results indicated that no cultivars were resistant to F. oxysporum. Cultivars from Hydrangea arborescens, H. macrophylla, and H. paniculata were more tolerant to F. oxysporum compared to cultivars from H. quercifolia. Among H. quercifolia, cultivars Snowflake, John Wayne, and Alice were more tolerant to F. oxysporum.

Abstract
The selective adsorption of palladium from wastewater is a feasible solution to solving palladium pollution and resource scarcity. Because traditional solvent extraction methods often involve the use of considerable amounts of organic solvents, research is focused on investigating adsorption techniques that can selectively remove palladium from wastewater. In this paper, the magnetic composite Fe3O4@MnO2@ZIF-67 was synthesized and its performance for the adsorption of Pd(II) in acidic water was investigated. Fe3O4@MnO2@ZIF-67 was characterized by various analytical methods such as TEM, SEM, EDS, BET, XRD, FTIR, zeta potential analysis, VSM, and TGA. The effects of palladium ion concentration, contact time, pH, and temperature on adsorption were evaluated. The kinetics were shown to follow the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Elovich model, and the rate-limiting step was chemisorption. Thermodynamic studies showed that increasing the temperature promoted the adsorption of Pd(II), and the maximum uptake capacity of Fe3O4@MnO2@ZIF-67 for Pd(II) was 531.91 mg g-1. Interestingly, Fe3O4@MnO2@ZIF-67 exhibited superior selectivity for Pd(II) in the presence of Ir(IV), Pt(IV), and Rh(III). The adsorbent can be used repeatedly for selective adsorption of palladium. Even at the fifth cycle, the uptake rate of Pd(II) remained as high as 83.1%, and it showed a favorable adsorption capacity and selectivity for Pd(II) in real metallurgical wastewater. The adsorption mechanism was analyzed by SEM, FTIR, XRD, XPS, and DFT calculations, which indicated that electrostatic interactions and coordination with nitrogen-containing groups were involved. Fe3O4@MnO2@ZIF-67 is a promising adsorbent for the efficient adsorption and selective separation of palladium ions.

Abstract
Coumarins isolated from Hydrangea paniculata (HP) had a renal protective effect in experimental membranous nephritis (MN), but the mechanisms are not clear. Currently, we investigate whether the modulation of gut dysbiosis by HP contributes to its renal protection. Experimental MN rats were treated with HP for six weeks. Fecal 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolomics were performed. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was used for the evaluation study. The results demonstrate that deteriorated renal function and gut dysbiosis are found in MN rats, as manifested by a higher Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio and reduced diversity and richness, but both changes were reversed by HP treatment. Reduced gut dysbiosis is correlated with improved colonic integrity and lower endotoxemia in HP-treated rats. HP normalized the abnormal level of fecal metabolites by increasing short-chain fatty acid production and hindering the production of uremic toxin precursors. FMT of HP-treated feces to MN animals moderately reduced endotoxemia and albuminuria. Moreover, major coumarins in HP were only biotransformed into more bioactive 7-hydroxycoumarin by gut microbiota, which strengthened the effect of HP in vivo. Depletion of the gut microbiota partially abolished its renal protective effect. In conclusion, the bidirectional interaction between HP and the gut microbiota contributes to its beneficial effect.

Abstract
Oakleaf hydrangea (Hydrangea quercifolia) is an important ornamental plant grown in Tennessee. In May 2018, after late spring frost, cultivars Pee Wee and Queen of Hearts showed root and crown rot symptoms and identification and management of the disease was a major concern. The objective of this research was to identify the causal organism of this disease and develop management recommendations for nursery growers. Isolates from the infected root and crown parts were subjected to microscopy, and the morphology of fungi resembled Fusarium. Molecular analysis was conducted by amplifying the internal transcribed spacer of ribosomal DNA, β-tubulin, and translation elongation factor 1-α regions. Fusarium oxysporum was identified as a causal organism based on molecular analysis. A pathogenicity test was done to complete the Koch's postulates by drenching containerized oakleaf hydrangea with a conidial suspension. Experiments were conducted to evaluate different chemical fungicides and biological products with different rates for Fusarium root and crown rot management in container-grown Queen of Hearts. Plants were inoculated by drenching containerized oakleaf hydrangea with 150-ml conidial suspensions of F. oxysporum, maintaining the concentration of 1 × 106 conidia/ml. Root and crown rot were assessed using a scale of 0 to 100%. Recovery of F. oxysporum was recorded by plating root and crown sections. Chemical fungicides such as mefentrifluconazole (BAS75002F), the low rate (1.09 ml/liter) of difenoconazole + pydiflumetofen (Postiva), and the high rate (1.32 ml/liter) of isofetamid (Astun) and biopesticide were applied; the high rate (1.64 g/liter) of ningnanmycin (SP2700 WP) effectively reduced Fusarium root rot severity and pyraclostrobin effectively reduced Fusarium crown rot severity in both trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nowadays, the use of herbal extracts for the production of nanoparticles has attracted a lot of attention due to the fast reaction, economy, and compatibility with the environment. The aim of the present study is the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from the extracts of Nepeta sessilifolia Bunge and Salvia hydrangea DC. ex Benth. and their antibacterial activity was measured. METHODS For this purpose, the flowering branch of N. sessilifolia and the flower of S. hydrangea were randomly collected from three places, respectively, from the rangelands of Aqdash Mountain and Biabe in Isfahan province, Iran in May 2021. After extracting aqueous extracts by hot method, silver nanoparticles were synthesized by the biological method. Green synthesized silver nanoparticles were analyzed by UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, FTIR, and FESEM-EDAX. The antibacterial effect was evaluated by diffusion method in agar and determination of minimum growth inhibitory and lethal concentration (MIC and MBC) by dilution method in liquid culture medium. RESULTS Based on the results of UV-Vis spectroscopy, silver nanoparticles synthesized from N. sessilifolia and S. hydrangea had distinct absorption peaks at wavelengths of 407 to 424 nm and 414 to 415 nm, respectively. The crystalline nature of these synthetic silver nanoparticles was confirmed by XRD. FESEM analysis showed that the size of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles from N. sessilifolia and S. hydrangea extracts were 10-50 nm and 10-80 nm, respectively, and were cubic. The results of diffusion in agar showed that the largest diameter of the growth inhibition zone belonging to the synthetic silver nanoparticles from both extracts of N. sessilifolia (~ 26.00 mm) and S. hydrangea (~ 23.50 mm) was against Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. The most vigorous killing activity by synthetic silver nanoparticles from N. sessilifolia extract was against Klebsiella pneumoniae with a value of 250 μg/mL, two times stronger than rifampin. CONCLUSION Therefore, the studied extracts can be suitable options for fast and safe green synthesis of silver nanoparticles effective against some bacterial strains. These synthetic silver nanoparticles can be used as possible options and have strong potential for the production of natural antibiotics.

Abstract
Systena frontalis (F.) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), also known as the red-headed flea beetle, is a defoliating pest of a variety of crop systems, such as ornamentals and food crops. Leaf consumption by this beetle renders ornamental nursery plants, such as hydrangeas (Hydrangea paniculata Siebold, Hydrangeaceae), unsaleable. In Virginia, this insect has become a major pest at commercial nurseries, and their feeding potential on affected crops has not been quantified. In this study, the extent of their damage to individual leaves and host preference between leaf ages were determined. The rate of defoliation on mature and young hydrangea leaves was measured over 24 and 48 h and between different numbers of adults. A single adult caused up to 10% damage to a young leaf or 5% to a whole mature leaf in 24 h. Without choice, there was a higher percent damage to young leaves. When the size of leaves was controlled by cut-out mature leaves, the area damaged was still higher in young leaves when compared with mature leaves. Adult feeding between mature or young leaves was further investigated by choice assays on a caged plant and within a containerized system. In these choice assays, adults inflicted higher percent damage on mature leaves in both caged plant assays and containerized direct choice assays. The choice assays were more similar to field conditions than the nonchoice assays. This demonstrates that S. frontalis showed a preference for mature leaves over young leaves within hydrangeas.

Abstract
Magnetic titanium dioxide (Fe3O4-TiO2) was prepared and utilized as the cleanup adsorbent and separation medium to modify the QuEChERS method, affording a facile, robust, and rapid magnetic "one-step" pretreatment method for the determination of multi-pesticide residues in fish. The pretreatment key parameters, such as the dosages of the purification adsorbents (Fe3O4-TiO2 and PSA), the dehydrating and salting out reagents, were systematically optimized by the orthogonal test method. Under the optimal conditions, satisfactory results of method evaluation were obtained. Good linearity of 127 target analytes was obtained from 1 to 250 μg L-1. The recoveries of 127 analytes at five spiked levels of 10, 25, 50, 125, and 250 μg kg-1 ranged from 71.0% to 129% with RSDs less than 15.0%. The method LOQs (MLOQs) of 127 analytes were 10 μg kg-1, meeting the requirement for multi-pesticide residues analysis in fish. Additionally, this magnetic "one-step" method was used for the analysis of multi-pesticide residues in real fish samples collected from Zhejiang Province, China. In summary, this method can work as a viable tool for multi-pesticide residues monitoring in fish.

Abstract
Climbing plants rely on suitable support to provide the light conditions they require in the canopy. Negative phototropism is a directional search behavior proposed to detect a support-tree, which indicates growth or movement away from light, based on light attenuation. In a Chilean temperate rainforest, we addressed whether the massive woody climber Hydrangea serratifolia (H. et A.) F. Phil (Hydrangeaceae) presents a support-tree location pattern influenced by light availability. We analyzed direction and light received in two groups of juvenile shoots: searching shoots (SS), with plagiotropic (creeping) growth vs. ascending shoots (AS), with orthotropic growth. We found that, in accordance with light attenuation, SS and AS used directional orientation to search and then ascend host trees. The light available to H. serratifolia searching shoots was less than that of the general forest understory; the directional orientation in both groups showed a significant deviation from a random distribution, with no circular statistical difference between them. Circular-linear regression indicated a relationship between directional orientations and light availability. Negative phototropism encodes the light environment's heterogeneous spatial and temporal information, guiding the shoot apex to the most shaded part of the support-tree base, the climbing start point.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to elucidate the defense mechanism of Alcea rosea (Linn.) Cavan. and Hydrangea macrophylla (Thunb.) Ser. against the single and compound toxicity of lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) along with the synergistic effect of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) in accumulation of metals in these two species. The two plant species were subjected to single metal treatment (Pb 1000 mg kg-1, Zn 600 mg kg-1) and compound metal treatment (Pb 1000 mg kg-1 + Zn 600 mg kg-1) in a greenhouse. Besides, different levels of EDTA were applied (2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 mmol kg-1) with compound metal treatment. Several physiological and biochemical parameters, including plant photosynthetic parameters, enzymatic antioxidant system, accumulation concentration of metals, and subcellular distribution were estimated. The results showed that the antioxidative enzymes, proline, root morphological changes, and metal localization all played important roles in resisting Pb and Zn toxicity. A notable difference was that Zn was concentrated in the roots (58.5%) of H. macrophylla to reduce the damage but in the leaves (38.5%) of A. rosea to promote photosynthesis and resist the toxicity of metals. In addition, Zn reduced the toxicity of Pb to plants by regulating photosynthesis, Pb absorption and Pb distribution in subcells. The biological concentration factors (BCF) and translocation factors (TF) for Pb in two plants were less than 1, indicating that they could be considered as phytostabilizators in Pb-contaminated soils. Moreover, EDTA could enhance the enrichment and transport capacity of Pb and Zn to promote the phytoremediation effect. In summary, both plants have a certain application potential for repairing Pb-Zn-contaminated soil.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total coumarins extracted from Hydrangea. Paniculata, Sieb (HP) have showed renal protective effect in several experimental acute and chronic kidney diseases. PURPOSE The aim of current study is to evaluate renal protective effect of HP against cationized-BSA (c-BSA) induced experimental membranous nephritis (MN), and further investigate its underlying mechanisms. METHODS Rat MN model was established by intravenous injection of 5 mg c-BSA for consecutive 14 days, and after albuminuria confirmed, HP was orally administrated with 7.5, 15, 30 mg/kg for nine weeks. The renal function was measured and histopathological injuries were observed. RNA sequencing was used to analyze the altered signaling pathways in kidneys. Pharmacokinetics was performed to investigate the pharmacodynamics of major ingredients in HP and possible metabolites. Discover X platform helped to clarify the possible molecular mechanisms of major compound in HP. RESULTS HP administration could significantly improve the renal function, and ameliorate the dyslipidemia and histopathological injuries. mRNA sequencing demonstrated that HP had anti-inflammation and anti-fibrosis effects possible through down-regulating the complement activation and PI3K-AKT pathways. Pharmacokinetics demonstrated that skimmin and 7-hydoxycoumarin (7-HC) were major compound or metabolite in plasma after oral administration. Based on Discover X platform, we confirmed that skimmin and 7-HC inhibited the IL10 production by inflammatory macrophages through blocking PI3K-AKT and NFκB signaling pathways. Finally, we demonstrated that HP protected tubulointerstitium from complement attack by reducing the C3 self-production and auto-cleavage in tubular cells. CONCLUSIONS HP has a renal protective effect, and its drug development may provide one alternative strategy to treat immune-mediated nephropathy.

Abstract
Climate relicts hold considerable importance because they have resulted from numerous historical changes. However, there are major interspecific variations among the ways by which they survived climate changes. Therefore, investigating the factors and timing that affected population demographics can expand our understanding of how climate relicts responded to historical environmental changes. Here, we examined herbaceous hydrangeas of genus Deinanthe in East Asia, which show limited distributions and a remarkable disjunction between Japan and central China. Chloroplast genome and restriction site-associated DNA sequencing revealed that speciation event occurred in the late Miocene (ca. 7-9 Mya) in response to global climate change. Two lineages apparently remained not branched until the middle Quaternary, and afterwards started to diverge to regional population groups. The narrow endemic species in central China showed lower genetic diversity (He = 0.082), as its population size rapidly decreased during the Holocene due to isolation in montane refugia. Insular populations in the three Japanese islands (He = 0.137-0.160) showed a genetic structure that was inconsistent with sea barriers, indicating that it was shaped in the glacial period when its range retreated to coastal refugia on the exposed sea floor. Demographic modelling by stairway-plot analysis reconstructed variable responses of Japanese populations: some experienced glacial bottlenecks in refugial isolation, while post-glacial range expansion seemingly exerted founder effects on other populations. Overall, this study demonstrated the involvement of not just one, but multiple factors, such as the interplay between climate changes, geography, and other population-specific factors, that determine the demographics of climate relicts.

Abstract
Hydrangea sepals exhibit a wide range of colors, from red, through purple, to blue; the purple color is a color mosaic. However, all of these colors are derived from the same components: simple anthocyanins, 3-O-glycosyldelphinidins, three co-pigment components, acylquinic acids and aluminum ions (Al3+ ). We show the color mosaic is a result of graded differences in intravacuolar factors. In order to clarify the mechanisms of mosaic color, we performed single-cell analyses of vacuolar pH, and anthocyanin, co-pigment and Al3+ content. From the sepals, a protoplast mixture of various colors was obtained. The cell color was evaluated by microspectrophotometry and vacuolar pH then was recorded by using a pH microelectrode. The organic and Al3+ contents were quantified by micro-HPLC. We found that the bluer the cell, the greater the ratio of 5-O-acylquinic acids and Al3+ to anthocyanins. Furthermore, reproducing experiments were conducted by mixing the components under various pH condition; all the colors could be reproduced in the various mixing conditions. Based on the above, we provide experimental evidence for cell color variation in hydrangea. Our study demonstrates the expression of phenotypic differences without any direct genomic control.

Abstract
Skin photoaging is mainly caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light, which increases expressions of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and destroys collagen fibers, consequently inducing wrinkle formation. Nutritional factors have received scientific attention for use as agents for normal skin functions. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hot water extracts from the leaves of Hydrangea serrata (Thunb.) Ser. (WHS) against ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced skin photoaging and to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms in human foreskin fibroblasts (Hs68) and HR-1 hairless mice. WHS recovered UVB-reduced cell viability and ameliorated oxidative stress by inhibiting intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in Hs68 cells. WHS rescued UVB-induced collagen degradation by suppressing MMP expression, and reduced the mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines. These anti-photoaging activities of WHS were associated with inhibition of the activator protein 1 (AP-1), signal transduction and activation of transcription 1 (STAT1), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways. Oral administration of WHS effectively alleviated dorsal skin from wrinkle formation, epidermal thickening, collagen degradation, and skin dehydration in HR-1 hairless mice exposed to UVB. Notably, WHS suppressed UVB activation of the AP-1 and MAPK signaling pathways in dorsal mouse skin tissues. Taken together, our data indicate that WHS prevents UVB-induced skin damage due to collagen degradation and MMP activation via inactivation of MAPK/AP-1 signaling pathway.

The antimalarial activity of Hydrangea macrophylla var. Otaksa alkaloids was evaluated against Plasmodium yoelii 17XL, P. berghei NK65 and P. chabaudi AS in ICR mice. For trials in P. yoelii 17XL or P. chabaudi AS infections, mice were infected intraperitoneally with 10(5), 10(6) and 10(7) parasitized erythrocytes, respectively, and in P. berghei NK65 infections, mice were infected intraperitoneally with 10(3), 10(4) and 10(5) parasitized erythrocytes, respectively. Three days after injection, mice were orally given febrifugine and isofebrifugine mixture at 1 mg/kg in the treated group and 0.5% cremophor EL solution in the untreated, infected one, respectively, twice a day for 5 consecutive days. In P. yoelii 17XL infections, mice in all the non-treated controls died from 5 to 9 dpi with a gradual body weight loss and increasing parasitemias. In the treated groups, the mouse body weight gradually decreased after the end of administration but turned to increase in several days, and except one mouse in the group given 10(6) parasitized erythrocytes, other mice survived during the experiment. Mice given orally the mixture showed low parasitemia levels during administration. Following a transient recrudescence of malaria parasites in the bloodstream of treated mice, no parasites could be detected by a microscopic examination. In P. berghei NK65 infections, mice in all the non-treated controls died from 7 to 12 dpi with a gradual body weight loss and increasing parasitemias. In the treated groups, the body weight gradually decreased from 11 dpi and all mice died from 12 to 30 dpi. During a mixture administration all mice showed slight suppression of multiplication of malaria parasites. After the end of administration, however, malaria parasites increased in the bloodstream of the treated mice and all mice died. In P. chabaudi AS infections, there were two different patterns in the course of infection; lethal infection or recovery in both the non-treated control and treated groups. In the non-treated and treated groups, mice showed a gradual body weight loss. But the body weights of survivals in both groups turned to increase in several days. Mice in control and treated groups showed as the same profile in the changes of parasitemia. In the non-treated controls, after a transient peak parasitemia malaria parasites in the bloodstream of survivals could not be detected by a microscopic examination. During a mixture administration, all mice showed suppression of multiplication of malaria parasites. After the end of medication, some mice died with increasing parasitemia. After a transient recrudescence, however, malaria parasites in the bloodstream of survivals could not be detected by a microscopic examination.

Abstract
The antimalarial activity of the fractions isolated from the leaves of Hydrangea macrophylla Seringe var. Otaksa Makino was evaluated against Plasmodium yoelii 17 XL in mice. Four different fractions were prepared in the usual manner to obtain an alkaloid fraction. All mice treated with the fraction containing febrifugine and isofebrifugine mixture at 1 mg/kg twice a day for 5 consecutive days survived during the experiment, and the change of mean parasitemia level showed almost the same pattern as that from mice treated with the hot-water extract of the same plant leaves. Activity of this fraction, however, was markedly reduced compared with the hot-water extract. Furthermore, no antimalarial activity was shown in the hotwater extract from H. macrophylla var. Otaksa roots or Dichroa febrifuga Lour. leaves.
