It is used for cerebrovascular ischemia, retinal disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the acute and subchronic toxicities of SW. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Acute toxicity was assessed in C57BL/6 mice based on OECD-423 guidelines, with oral doses ranging from 500 to 6,000 mg/kg body weight. Subchronic toxicity was evaluated in Wistar rats following OECD-407 guidelines, with daily oral doses of 300 and 600 mg/kg of SW daily for 4 weeks. Clinical signs, mortality, body weight, and physical condition were monitored. Hematological, biochemical, and histopathological analyses were conducted on day 29. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; No mortality or significant clinical signs of toxicity were observed at doses up to 6,000 mg/kg, suggesting an oral median lethal dose exceeding this level. Subchronic toxicity assessment revealed no clinical signs of toxicity or mortality. SW at 300 and 600 mg/kg had no significant effects on serum biochemical parameters or vital organ histology compared to controls.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; SW exhibited no acute toxicity at doses up to 6,000 mg/kg and showed no adverse effects in a 28-d subchronic toxicity study. These findings support its safety at tested doses.&lt;/p&gt;

Neurological deficit was assessed (Bederson scale), while histopathology, oxidative stress markers (MDA, GSH, SOD, CAT, NOx), and cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β) were measured. Groups included Normal (no ischemia), Ischemia (oral placebo), Citicoline 300 mg/kg, ChS 500 mg/kg, BaG 500 mg/kg, and the oral combination ChS 500 + BaG 500 mg/kg, all administered for seven days prior to ischemia induction. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;ChS had higher total phenolic content than BaG (p = 0.0079). GC-MS identified 23 compounds in ChS and 17 in BaG. The combination displayed greater antioxidant activity than either extract. At 24 h, ChS 500 mg/Kg and the combination reduced severe neurological deficit to 17% (vs. 83% in ischemia). Histopathology revealed less neuronal damage with the combination, comparable to ChS 500 mg/Kg. All treatments decreased MDA levels; the combination also enhanced GSH and CAT and significantly reduced TNF-α and IL-1β. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; ChS and BaG extracts exert neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia. Their combination shows synergistic antioxidant activity against free radicals and enhances the modulation of inflammatory cytokines, supporting a greater neuroprotective potential.&lt;/p&gt;

Exposure to aluminium is associated with oxidative damage, primarily due to its ability to disrupt redox balance, generate reactive oxygen species, and impair antioxidant defense mechanisms.This study was aimed to find the potential role of ashwagandha on aluminium induced brain toxicity. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;In the present study rats were grouped into 4 groups of 6 rats in each. Brain tissue was removed and processed for biochemical and histopathological analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In the present study, administration of aluminium to rats resulted in a significant decrease in tissue GSH levels and a corresponding increase in MDA levels in the aluminium-treated group compared to the normal control.. Treatment with Ashwagandha showed a significant increase in GSH level and decrease in MDA level. Photomicrographic sections of the Brain in Ashwagandha-treated rats showed normla neuronal Count and exposure to Aluminium has caused significant reduction in the neuronal count. Experimental group pretreated with ashwagandha showed a visible increase in neuronal count in different regions of the rat brain.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results revealed that oral administration of aluminium induced adverse oxidative effects in the exposed animals, while treatment with Ashwagandha markedly reduced the extent of aluminium chloride-induced brain injury.&lt;/p&gt;

Treatments are costly, have significant side effects, and are sometimes unavailable in Benin. Medicinal plants offer promising avenues for new therapeutic agents. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;This study uses flow cytometry method to evaluate the cytotoxic activity of &lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt; (Annonaceae), &lt;em&gt;Momordica charantia&lt;/em&gt; (Cucurbitaceae) and &lt;em&gt;Launaea taraxacifolia&lt;/em&gt; (Asteraceae), three plants from the Beninese pharmacopoeia known for their anti-cancer properties. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The leaves of A. muricata, &lt;em&gt;L. taraxacifolia &lt;/em&gt;and whole plants of &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt; were collected in southern Benin. Extracts were prepared by aqueous decoction and sequential extraction with solvents of increasing polarity (dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, methanol). The phytochemical profiles of the extracts were determined using TLC and tube tests. The cytotoxicity of the extracts was evaluated on THP-1 cancer cells and PBMC healthy cells. After treatment with the extracts, cell viability was measured by flow cytometry after staining with Thiazole Orange and Hoechst 33258. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The dichloromethane extracts of &lt;em&gt;A. muricata&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt;, and the ethyl acetate extract of &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; L. taraxacifolia &lt;/em&gt;showed significant cytotoxic effects on THP-1 cells. Their half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) were 139.6 μg/mL, 72.89 μg/mL, 81.88 μg/mL and 106.3 μg/ mL, respectively. These extracts also demonstrated good selectivity toward normal cells. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, coumarins, flavonoids, anthracene glycosides and triterpenes in the active extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study demonstrated the cytotoxic potential of three medicinal plants from the Beninese pharmacopoeia which may serve to develop further new anticancer therapies.&lt;/p&gt;

While there are many drugs available to control blood glucose levels, many people cannot access them due to economic reasons. &lt;strong&gt;Object: &lt;/strong&gt;The aim of this study was to determine the hypoglycemic effect of the ethanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;Chuquiraga weberbaueri&lt;/em&gt; in mice induced with hyperglycemia. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The mice were divided into 6 groups: the first group served as a control group and was administered only physiological saline solution; the second group was induced to hyperglycemia with Alloxan. The following three groups were induced with Alloxan and additionally administered ethanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;Chuquiraga weberbaueri&lt;/em&gt; at different concentrations of 100 mg/kg, 250 mg/kg, and 500 mg/kg respectively. The last group was administered Alloxan and glibenclamide. The glucose levels were measured for each group at 2, 4, and 24 hours after administering the extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The phytochemical analysis of the ethanolic extracts of the leaves of &lt;em&gt;Chuquiraga weberbaueri&lt;/em&gt; showed the presence of flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids and steroids. The ethanolic extracts (100 mg/kg at 2 hours and 250 mg/kg at 2 and 4 hours) demonstrated a decrease in blood glucose compared to the control group. In the toxicity test, the comparison between the control group and the “extract” treatment group showed that no conclusive results were observed with respect to the chuquiragua extract. &lt;strong&gt;Interpretation:&lt;/strong&gt; The results of the study showed that the ethanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;Chuquiraga weberbaueri &lt;/em&gt;showed the effect of reducing blood glucose in BALB/c mice.&lt;/p&gt;

For the first time in the literature, the antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiinflammatory potentials of AgNPs obtained using leaves of &lt;em&gt;Marrubium vulgare&lt;/em&gt; are investigated. &lt;strong&gt;Methods and results:&lt;/strong&gt; The optimal conditions for biosynthesis were 80 °C reaction temperature, 60 min incubation time, 2 mM AgNO&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;, and 100 μL extract volume. The FTIR results indicated that the distinct functional groups found in M. vulgare extract were also present in AgNPs, confirming their critical role in silver bioreduction and AgNP capping. The biosynthesized AgNPs were crystalline, with face-centered cubic geometry, according to XRD analysis. DLS analysis asserted that the constructed AgNP's average size was 34.58 nm, whereas SEM/TEM revealed their spherical morphology. The AgNPs produced through biosynthesis inhibited microbial proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. They exhibited bactericidal attributes against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, with MIC values ranging from 0.041 to 5.312 μg/mL and MBCs from 0.083 to 5.312 μg/mL. Furthermore, the AgNPs exhibited fungicidal activity against three &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans &lt;/em&gt;strains, with MIC and MFC respective values recorded at 2.656 and 2.656-5.312 μg/mL. Additionally, the biosynthesized AgNPs demonstrated significant antioxidant potency compared to ascorbic acid and the extract. Their potent in vitro anti-inflammatory effect, attributed to the inhibition of BSA denaturation, was directly proportional to the AgNP concentration, with a maximum inhibition of 86.14% observed at 200 μg/mL. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Therefore, the findings suggest that AgNPs have promising applications in combating the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance and might be utilized as potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents.&lt;/p&gt;

This study evaluated the photoprotective effects of topical pumpkin seed (&lt;em&gt;Cucurbita moschata&lt;/em&gt;) extract cream against UVB-induced skin damage in Wistar rats. CPD (cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer), MDA (malondialdehyde), MMP-1 (matrix metalloproteinase-1) levels, and collagen density were assessed. UVB exposure significantly increased CPD, MDA, and MMP- 1 levels while reducing collagen density. Treatment with pumpkin seed extract cream, particularly at 10% concentration, markedly reduced CPD and MDA levels (&lt;em&gt;P ≤ &lt;/em&gt;0.05), indicating potent DNA repair support and antioxidant activity likely attributable to phenolic and flavonoid compounds. MMP-1 levels were significantly decreased, approaching normal values, suggesting inhibition of collagen degradation through anti-inflammatory and anti-matrix degradation mechanisms. Histological examination revealed higher collagen density and more organized collagen fibers in treated groups compared with negative control and placebo. These findings indicate that &lt;em&gt;Cucurbita moschata &lt;/em&gt;seed extract cream exerts strong photoprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and collagen-preserving effects, with the 10% formulation showing the greatest efficacy.&lt;/p&gt;

The tubers of this plant are consumed by local tribes in northern Kerala during times of famine, and they are believed to enhance bone and muscle strength. Furthermore, it is incorporated with other ingredients in their traditional postnatal rejuvenation preparations. However, this plant which is infrequently examined for its biochemical impacts on humans. This research aimed to identify the phytochemicals present in the tuber and leaf of &lt;em&gt;Dioscorea transversa&lt;/em&gt; and to assess solvent extracts for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The leaf sample demonstrated a notable concentration of phenolic compounds, tannins, flavonoids, and terpenoids, while the tuber was rich in saponins, proteins, and steroids. It was noted that the aqueous methanolic extract of the leaves (AqML) exhibited superior antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity in comparison to the other five extracts explored. This study underscores &lt;em&gt;D. transversa&lt;/em&gt; as a significant source of natural bioactive compounds and advocates for further research to delve deeper into the pharmacological potential of this plant&lt;/p&gt;

A polyherbal formulation derived from &lt;em&gt;Dasiphora fruticosa, Cynara scolymus&lt;/em&gt;, and &lt;em&gt;Rosa acicularis&lt;/em&gt; has previously demonstrated antioxidant and nephroprotective properties. However, comprehensive toxicological and mutagenicity evaluations are needed to support its clinical development. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the acute and subchronic toxicities and mutagenic potential of this polyherbal formulation.&lt;strong&gt; Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Acute oral toxicity was assessed in C57BL/6 mice using a two-phase protocol based on Lorke's method. Subchronic toxicity was evaluated in Wistar rats following OECD guideline 407, with daily oral administration of the polyherbal formulation at doses of 500 and 1,000 mg/kg for 28 days. Mutagenicity was assessed using the Muta-Chromoplate (Ames test) kit according to OECD guideline 471. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Acute toxicity evaluation determined that the median lethal dose (LD&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) of the polyherbal formulation exceeds 5,000 mg/kg, categorising it as practically nontoxic. The subchronic toxicity assessment revealed that doses of 500 and 1,000 mg/kg had no significant effects on body and organ weight, haematological and biochemical parameters, and histopathological features compared with the controls. Furthermore, the Ames test confirmed that the polyherbal formulation had no mutagenic activity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The polyherbal formulation exhibited no acute toxicity at doses up to 5,000 mg/kg, and no adverse effects were observed in a 28-day subchronic toxicity study. Furthermore, its favourable safety profile was further confirmed by its lack of mutagenic potential. Collectively, these findings provide a robust foundation for continued preclinical and clinical development of the polyherbal formulation&lt;/p&gt;

Difficulties in diagnosis and the adverse effects of conventional treatments have driven the search for alternatives, such as &lt;em&gt;Dracontium spruceanum&lt;/em&gt; (&quot;sacha jergón&quot;), an Amazonian plant containing compounds with potential activity against &lt;em&gt;Leishmania&lt;/em&gt; spp., whose efficacy still requires scientific validation. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;To determine the effect of the aqueous extract of &lt;em&gt;Dracontium spruceanum &lt;/em&gt;against &lt;em&gt;Leishmania&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Detection of &lt;em&gt;Leishmania &lt;/em&gt;(Viannia) spp. kDNA was performed by PCR using primers MP1-L and MP3-H, with LTB-300 (L. (V.) braziliensis) and DNAfree water as controls. Promastigotes were isolated from cutaneous lesion scrapings and cultured in biphasic medium, achieving differentiation into axenic amastigotes in Schneider medium, with pH 4.7 as the optimal condition for complete conversion. Plant material of &lt;em&gt;Dracontium spruceanum&lt;/em&gt; collected in Ucayali (Peru) was processed to obtain an aqueous extract (100 mg/mL). The antiparasitic activity of the extract was evaluated by the MTT assay against promastigotes and amastigotes, using Glucantime as a positive control. Data obtained were analyzed by ANOVA, considering p-values &amp;lt; 0.05 as significant. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;In &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;assays with &lt;em&gt;Leishmania &lt;/em&gt;sp., administration of Glucantime (25 mg/mL) produced a significant decrease in cell viability of promastigotes (71%) and axenic amastigotes (38%) compared to the control group. Conversely, the aqueous extract of &lt;em&gt;Dracontium spruceanum&lt;/em&gt; (8.33 mg/mL) caused a significant increase in promastigote (160%) and amastigote (179%) viability, indicating a stimulatory effect on parasite growth (p &amp;lt; 0.05). &lt;strong&gt;Discussion and conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The in vitro effect of the aqueous extract of &lt;em&gt;Dracontium spruceanum&lt;/em&gt; on promastigotes and axenic amastigotes of &lt;em&gt;Leishmania &lt;/em&gt;sp. was investigated. Unlike Glucantime, which significantly decreased parasite viability, the extract consistently promoted proliferation in both forms. This result, uncommon in medicinal plant studies, could be linked to the presence of ceramides and cerebrosides, compounds in the genus Dracontium previously associated with mitogenic activity. Additional dose-response studies and phytochemical analysis are needed to identify the active compounds and clarify their mechanism of action.&lt;/p&gt;

Participants with the presence of Amlapitta (symptomatic gastritis), as diagnosed by the Amlapitta Symptom Rating Scale Score ≥ 5 were included in the study. Participants were advised to take Amlapitta Mishran Suspension in a dose of 15 ml twice daily for 14 days. The study involved three visits. The investigator recorded the Amlapitta Symptom Rating Scale (ASRS) Score, Post Prandial Distress Syndrome (PPDS) Score, and Epigastric Pain Syndrome (EPS) Score at screening visit (Visit 1), baseline visit (Visit 2) and final visit (Visit 3). The p&amp;lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant measured by paired t-test or Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;In the multi-center study 204 participants completed the study. At final visit, a statistically significant (p&amp;lt;0.001) reduction was reported in mean Total ASRS score, PPDS score, and EPS score as compared to the baseline scores. The individual ASRS, PPDS, and EPS variables also exhibited significant reduction (p&amp;lt;0.001) at the final visit. None of the participants reported any adverse events during the study. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Amlapitta Mishran Suspension treatment for 14 days effectively and safely reduced the clinical symptoms of Amlapitta (symptomatic gastritis) assessed by Amlapitta Symptom Rating Scale, Postprandial Distress Syndrome and Epigastric Pain Syndrome scores.&lt;/p&gt;

The extract is known to contain active compounds such as flavonoids, phenolics, and triterpenoids, which contribute to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents were 70.31 mg GAE/g and 13.49 mg QE/g, respectively, with very strong antioxidant activity (IC&lt;sub&gt;₅₀&lt;/sub&gt; = 48.45 ppm). Evaluation through ultrasonography and histopathology revealed structural improvement in the liver of treated groups, particularly at doses of 200 and 300 mg/ kgBW, marked by reduced abnormal echogenicity and improved liver parenchyma, along with a decrease in histopathological score from 2 to 1. The administration of the extract also significantly reduced proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 (P≤0.05), as well as CRP levels, indicating strong anti-inflammatory potential. In addition, liver function showed meaningful recovery, with the highest albumin level recorded at 200 mg/kgBW (3.00 ± 0.52 g/dL), and a significant reduction in bilirubin level at 300 mg/kgBW to 0.102 ± 0.040 mg/dL. Significant decreases were also observed in SGOT and SGPT enzyme levels in the treatment groups, especially at 300 mg/kgBW, indicating protection of hepatocyte integrity. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that Centella asiatica extract possesses hepatoprotective effects through antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and liver function-restorative mechanisms. These findings support the potential development of pegagan as a phytopharmaceutical agent for adjunct therapy in liver disorders and highlight the need for further studies on its active compounds and long-term safety.&lt;/p&gt;

Clinical and biochemical parameters, including fasting blood sugar (FBS), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), adiponectin, leptin, TNF-alpha, and IL-6, were measured. Descriptive statistics and correlation analysis were performed to determine associations between inflammatory markers and metabolic dysregulation.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The mean age of participants was &lt;strong&gt;42.63 ± 6.38 &lt;/strong&gt;years, and the average BMI was &lt;strong&gt;28.38 ± 2.25 kg/m²&lt;/strong&gt;. FBS and HbA1C levels were &lt;strong&gt;175.72 ± 61.61 mg/dL&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;7.26 ± 0.94%,&lt;/strong&gt; respectively. The mean adiponectin and leptin levels were &lt;strong&gt;4.71 ± 1.75 μg/mL&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;20.58 ± 5.19 ng/mL&lt;/strong&gt;, respectively. TNF-alpha and IL-6 levels averaged &lt;strong&gt;132.00 ± 9.45 pg/mL&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;33.52 ± 14.55 pg/mL&lt;/strong&gt;, respectively. Correlation analysis indicated an inverse relationship between adiponectin and BMI, while leptin was positively correlated with BMI and insulin levels. Elevated TNFalpha and IL-6 levels were associated with increased HbA1C and fasting blood glucose. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study highlights the significant role of inflammatory markers in metabolic dysregulation among T2DM patients. Elevated TNF-alpha and IL-6 levels reinforce the link between chronic inflammation and impaired glucose metabolism. These findings underscore the need for anti-inflammatory strategies in diabetes management.&lt;/p&gt;

Tinospora cordifolia (TC) and &lt;em&gt;Azadirachta indica&lt;/em&gt; (AI) are traditional medicinal plants that has been used for diabetes since ancient times, but their combined potential as a formulation has not been evaluated for the management of diabetes. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; This study aimed to profile the phytochemical composition of 70% hydroethanolic extracts of TC and AI, assess their antioxidant and antidiabetic activity individually and in combination, and further substantiate their efficacy through in-silico molecular docking and ADMET evaluation of their key bioactive compounds, berberine and nimbolide. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Hydroethanolic extracts of TC and AI were subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening, quantification of primary and secondary metabolites, and HPTLC profiling. Five combinations of TC:AI (1:1, 1:2, 2:1, 1:3, 3:1) were prepared and evaluated for antioxidant activity using DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays, and for antidiabetic potential using α-amylase, α-glucosidase, and PTP1B inhibition assays. IC&lt;sub&gt;₅₀&lt;/sub&gt; values were calculated. &lt;em&gt;In-silico&lt;/em&gt; studies were performed for berberine and nimbolide using AutoDock 4.2.6 against PPARγ, GLUT4, and IRS1. Drug-likeness and ADMET properties were predicted using SwissADME and pkCSM. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytochemical profiling confirmed the presence of alkaloids, polyphenols, flavonoids, and tannins. TC demonstrated stronger inherent antioxidant and antidiabetic activity than AI. Among combinations, 1:1 and 3:1 formulations showed the highest potency with IC₅₀ values comparable to standards. Molecular docking revealed strong binding affinities of berberine and nimbolide toward PPARγ, GLUT4, and IRS1, while ADMET prediction indicated acceptable pharmacokinetic behaviour and good drug-likeness. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The TC:AI 1:1 formulation exhibited synergistic antioxidant and antidiabetic effects, supported by favorable &lt;em&gt;in-silico&lt;/em&gt; interactions and pharmacokinetic profiles, highlighting its potential as a natural therapeutic option for T2DM management.&lt;/p&gt;

Cinnamon extract is known to contain bioactive compounds such as flavonoids and polyphenols, which play significant roles in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms. Phytochemical analysis revealed that the extract contained total phenolic content of 71.55 mg GAE/g and flavonoid content of 0.41 mg QE/g, with a potent antioxidant activity indicated by an IC&lt;sub&gt;₅₀&lt;/sub&gt; value of 18.19 ppm. Administration of the extract for 28 days at a dose of 300 mg/kg body weight resulted in a significant reduction (P&amp;lt;0.05) in pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, and CRP levels compared to the negative control group. The 300 mg/kg dose showed the highest efficacy, with TNF-α levels approaching those of the normal group. Furthermore, liver function parameters improved, as evidenced by significant reductions in SGOT and SGPT enzyme levels, an increase in serum albumin (2.96 ± 0.52 g/dL), and a decrease in serum bilirubin to 0.102 ± 0.040 mg/dL. Ultrasonographic examination showed improved liver parenchymal homogeneity and a reduction in the number of nodules. Histopathological findings revealed a decrease in liver tissue damage score from moderate to mild. These findings suggest that &lt;em&gt;Cinnamomum burmannii&lt;/em&gt; extract has potential hepatoprotective effects through antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and hepatocellular recovery mechanisms. Therefore, this extract holds promise as a phytopharmaceutical candidate for complementary therapy in liver function disorders; however, further studies are required to isolate the active compounds and evaluate long-term toxicity.&lt;/p&gt;

Behavioral assays in mice were used to evaluate the antidepressant and anxiolytic effects. In addition, the antioxidant capacity was performed through DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays. The GC-MS analysis revealed that linalool (29.16%), bicyclogermacrene (13.32%), nerolidol (12.38%), and β-caryophyllene (10.76%) were the principal components. The results demonstrated significant antidepressant and anxiolytic effects comparable to fluoxetine and diazepam, with statistical differences between all groups (p&amp;lt;0.005). The IC50 values for the DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays were 5.9±0.08, 0.20±0.06, and 109.5±1.3, respectively. Consequently, &lt;em&gt;Piper aduncum&lt;/em&gt; essential oil exhibits antidepressant and anxiolytic-like effects and modest antioxidant properties compared to the controls.&lt;/p&gt;

Furthermore, a study was conducted where 128 participants were divided into two groups: a control group and an experimental group treated with essential oils. Stress, anxiety, and sleep quality were evaluated using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS–10), the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Inventory (PSQI). In addition, cortisol was measured.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Chemical analysis showed thatα-Bisabolol oxide A exhibited the highest concentration at 30.42%, followed by α -Bisabolol (10.94%), α-Bisabolone oxide A (9.82%), and spathulenol (8.83%). Stress, anxiety, sleep quality, and cortisol scores decreased in the post-test study phase compared to the pre-test in the experimental group (p&amp;lt;0.05). Important effect size was found in the case of anxiety (d = 1.203; Δ = 1.246), while medium effects were observed for stress (d = 0.701; Δ = 0.633) and sleep quality (d = 0.888; Δ = 0.732), while cortisol showed small changes (d=0.374; Δ=0.357). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The study showed the potential of Chamomile essential oils to reduce stress and anxiety levels and improve sleep quality.&lt;/p&gt;

Oxidative stress in hyperglycemia increases the inflammatory response in GDM by stimulating pro-inflammatory genes. IL-12 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that is generally involved in inflammatory responses . This research aims to determine the effect of ciplukan fruit extract against IL-12, and Oxidative Stress in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus mice . The method used in this research is RAL (Completely Randomized Design). Analysis of cytokine levels using the ELISA reading method was followed by data analysis using the ANOVA test . The results showed that the treatment given gradually increased the highest cytokine levels in the P4 group showing the highest increase with IL-12 levels of 0.246 pg/mL, SOD of 0.160 U/mg protein, and MDA of 0.070 μmol/L. In this study it can be concluded that the P4 group showed the strongest effect in all parameters, indicating the potential of the agent or intervention as an immunomodulator and antioxidant, although it requires good management of oxidative stress.&lt;/p&gt;

Dexamethasone, while generally effective as an anti-inflammatory post-surgery medication, can increase IOP and blood sugar levels. Research on asiatic acid suggests its potential as an anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic agent. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Superior rectus recession was conducted on 20 rabbits, which were divided into five groups based on the subconjunctival injection substance: aquadest, dexamethasone, asiatic acid at a concentration of 0.4 mg/0.5 mL, 0.8 mg/0.5 mL, and 1.6 mg/0.5 mL. After three days, exenteration was performed, and an immunohistochemical examination was performed to assess interleukin-4 expression. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was performed to assess eosinophile cell count. SPSS 26.0 facilitated the data analysis using the Kruskal-Wallis and Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney tests. P&amp;lt;0.05 was considered significant statistically. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; This study showed that interleukin-4 expression in the asiatic acid 0.4 mg/0.5 mL group was significantly decreased compared to the aquadest group (P = 0.029) and dexamethasone group (P = 0.029). Higher-dose groups did not exhibit a significant decrease. Dexamethasone also did not exhibit a significant decrease compare to aquadest. There was no significant reduction of eosinophile cell count among all groups.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; This study highlighted the potential of asiatic acid, particularly at the concentration of 0.4 mg/0.5 mL, in reducing the inflammatory response, specifically interleukin-4 expression, after strabismus surgery in New Zealand rabbits.&lt;/p&gt;

Addressing stunting is not solely the responsibility of the health sector (specific); it also requires collaboration from non-health sectors (sensitive). Several sectors involved are Central Government, Provincial Government, Local Government Agencies, Private sector, Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), mass media, academics and society. However, previous different individual studies in regard to cross-sector collaboration produced diverse outcomes. Some reported optimal, while others reported suboptimal. Therefore, this current work aimed to determine supportive factors and barriers to cross-sector collaboration in addressing stunting. All research conducted in the last 5 years is encompassed within this topic. It explores various processes within cross -sector collaboration that can be utilized to address stunting issues. Through cross-sector collaboration, it is expected that the government and stakeholders share a common perception in addressing stunting issues, enabling joint problem-solving. The research findings emphasize that collaboration strategies within the government should not solely focus on outcomes but also consider models that encompass both processes and results. The model identified in this study aims to be an effective solution for governing cross-sector collaboration in addressing stunting.&lt;/p&gt;

The rats were randomly divided into normal control, hydrocephalus, and CSF drainage-treated groups. Hydrocephalus was obtained by injecting 0,05 cc of 20% kaolin suspension into the cisterna magna. The CSF drainage-treated group had ventricular tapping seven days after kaolin induction. The rats were sacrificed 7, 14, or 21 days after kaolin induction. The brain was removed and prepared for immunohistochemistry analysis to detect IL-1&lt;em&gt;β&lt;/em&gt;, IL-6, TNF-&lt;em&gt;α&lt;/em&gt;, and IL-10 cytokines expression. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Immunohistochemistry analysis revealed that the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines was significantly increased in hydrocephalus groups than in the control group. In contrast, the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine was significantly decreased. CSF drainage had a neuroprotective effect by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine expression and increasing anti-inflammatory cytokine expression. In the hydrocephalus group, the ratios of IL-1&lt;em&gt;β&lt;/em&gt;/IL-10, IL-6/IL-10, and TNF-&lt;em&gt;α&lt;/em&gt;/IL-10 increased toward a pro-inflammatory status. After CSF drainage, the ratios of IL-1&lt;em&gt;β&lt;/em&gt;/IL-10, IL-6/IL-10, and TNF-&lt;em&gt;α&lt;/em&gt;/IL-10 shifted toward an anti-inflammatory status. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;CSF drainage protects the brain from excessive neuroinflammatory processes in kaolin-induced hydrocephalic rats. Additional investigation is warranted to ascertain the use of inflammatory cytokines expression as a valuable biomarker for hydrocephalus. Furthermore, research on anti-inflammatory drug administration in clinical settings is required.&lt;/p&gt;

This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Vernonia amygdalina extract (VAE) in ameliorating hyperglycemia using a streptozotocin (STZ) and high-fat diet (HFD)-induced rat model of diabetes. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Sixty male Wistar rats were divided into six groups: normal control, diabetic control, and four treatment groups receiving different doses of VAE (100, 300, and 500 mg/kg body weight) orally for eight weeks. Diabetes was induced in rats by a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (55 mg/kg) after four weeks of Nicotinamid feeding. Body weight, fasting blood glucose levels, HbA1c, serum insulin levels, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Treatment with VAE significantly reduced fasting blood glucose levels in a dose-dependent manner compared to the diabetic control group (p &amp;lt; 0.05). VAE administration also led to a significant decrease in HbA1c levels and an increase in serum insulin levels in a dosedependent manner (p &amp;lt; 0.05). Furthermore, VAE supplementation restored SOD activity and reduced MDA levels, indicating improved antioxidant status in the treated groups (p &amp;lt; 0.05). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study demonstrates the therapeutic potential of Vernonia amygdalina as an antidiabetic agent in the STZ and HFD-induced rat model of diabetes. VAE supplementation effectively reduced fasting blood glucose levels, improved glycemic control as indicated by reduced HbA1c levels, and enhanced insulin secretion. Moreover, VAE exhibited antioxidant activity by restoring SOD activity and reducing MDA levels. These findings suggest that Vernonia amygdalina could be a promising natural remedy for the management of diabetes. Further investigations are warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and evaluate its long-term safety and efficacy in humans.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtejustify&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Context:&lt;/strong&gt; Polygenic urolithiasis has a complicated etiology and even more varied therapeutic outcomes. &lt;em&gt;Spermacoce articularis&lt;/em&gt; L.f. has been used historically for stone treatments in several traditional medical systems. &lt;strong&gt;Aim:&lt;/strong&gt; The current study aimed to investigate the &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; and in vivo anti-urolithiatic potential of &lt;em&gt;Spermacoce articularis&lt;/em&gt; Stem Extract (SASE). &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;In vitro&lt;/em&gt; antiurolithiatic potential on the CaOx crystallization was evaluated using nucleation and aggregation assays. In vivo, activity was assessed on renal calculi-induced Wistar rats by polyethylene glycol (0.75%) in drinking water for 14 days. SASE and cystone with two experimental doses (250 and 500 mg/kg, p.o.) were dispensed for ten days. Various biochemical parameters were assessed in the kidneys' serum, urine, and histological sections. In addition, SASE inhibited CaOx crystallization by reducing the density of crystals, triggering the breakdown of CaOx crystals, and hindering their growth. Cystone demonstrated comparable outcomes. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Upon treatment with SASE, urinary, serum, kidney homogenates, and antioxidants were significantly improved (p&amp;lt;0.05) to normal levels. The histopathology of the kidney section showed no damaged cells of SASE treated and Cystone treated compared with that of control animals. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This research validates the traditional idea and suggests that SASE is advantageous in preventing the growth of urinary stones.&lt;/p&gt;

Changes in body weight were determined during the 14-day treatment period, and on the last day of treatment, blood was drawn, and euthanasia was performed, removing organs for histological analysis. Biochemical parameters were measured. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The body weight of the research specimens not show statistically significant variation. In the liver, mild lymphocytic portal inflammation and moderate hepatic steatosis occurred at doses of 2000 mg/kg/day. The kidneys exhibited a mild infiltration around the renal tubules and glomeruli at the same dose. The brain showed a slight increase in the count of astrocytes with focal glial reaction at the highest dose. The stomach and heart also showed mild inflammatory processes at the dose of 2000 mg/kg/day. In biochemical parameters, statistically significant differences were observed between the dose of 2000 mg/Kg/day and the control group. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The ethanolic extract of the rhizome of Z. officinale in rats revealed histopathological changes in the liver, kidneys, brain, stomach, and heart, besides changes in biochemical parameters at doses of 2000 mg/Kg/day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtejustify&quot;&gt;This study aims to explore the relationship between 4-Hydroxycinnamic Acid, a compound found in broccoli fruit (&lt;em&gt;Brassica oleracea &lt;/em&gt;var. &lt;em&gt;italica&lt;/em&gt;), and Estrogen Receptor Beta Protein through &lt;em&gt;in silico&lt;/em&gt; analysis. The research was conducted using Pymol, MOE 2015, Discovery Studio 2016, and Lepinski Rule software. These tools were employed to model the structure of both the compound and protein, as well as to evaluate their interaction. The results revealed a significant interaction with a Binding Affinity of -6.4182. Moreover, the Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) measurements yielded a value of 3.8907, indicating the degree of agreement between the compound and protein structures. Analysis using the Lepinski Rule disclosed the characteristics of the compound 4-Hydroxycinnamic Acid, including a mass of 164, two hydrogen bond donors, three hydrogen bond acceptors, a log P value of 1.490, and a molar reactivity of 44.776. These findings provide valuable insights into the potential of 4-Hydroxycinnamic Acid in interacting with Estrogen Receptor Beta Protein, which could serve as a foundation for further research on the health benefits and therapeutic applications of this compound, contributing to the goal of good health and well-being.&lt;/p&gt;

Therefore, there is always a demand for innovative natural medicines. Medicinal plants have long been a significant source in search of novel, effective alternatives for human therapy. Chamomile is one of the most widely used medicinal plants, which may help hyperglycemic patients by lowering blood sugar levels. Objectives: To determine how chamomile extract affects the kidneys when albino male rats with chronic diabetes are induced by streptozotocin (STZ). &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The study was conducted in the Al-Azhar Faculty of Medicine (Assiut) pharmacology department animal laboratory. For this investigation, a local strain of fifty adult male albino rats was used as the animal model and weighed 120 to 150 g. In this study, rats were divided into five groups, body weight, and systolic blood pressure was measured, and blood samples were collected for measuring blood glucose and insulin level, HbA1c, Na, K, and renal function tests, and histopathological examination was done. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; After the study, mean glucose levels, HbA1c, urea, creatinine, K, and systolic blood pressure were significantly decreased in group IV &amp;amp; group V compared to group III. In contrast, body weight serum insulin level and Na increased dramatically in group IV &amp;amp; group V compared to group III.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The serum levels of urea and creatinine in diabetic patients may be positively affected by chamomile. Additionally, short-term chamomile uses benefits diabetic individuals by decreasing loss of body weight, lowering HbA1c, and increasing insulin levels.&lt;/p&gt;

Green plants generally contain phytochemical compounds, such as vegetables and plants that add aroma to dishes, one of which is curry leaves (Murraya Koenigii). This research aims to identify the phytochemical compounds contained in curry leaves. This research was carried out from August 2023 to October 2023. The curry leaves that were obtained were converted into extract form and then the extract was tested for the content of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, phenolics and tannins. The research results showed that curry leaf extract contained 23.73% alkaloids, 1.24% flavonoids, 8.74% saponins, 4.4% phenolics, and 5.2% tannins. Alkaloids in plants have a role as a defense against biotic and abiotic disorders. The benefits of flavonoids in plants include anti-mutagenic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-carcinogenic. Saponins have various benefits in the health sector, including being able to reduce cholesterol concentrations in the blood. Polyphenols have good antioxidant power because this group can provide electrons to neutralize free radical electrons formed in the body. Tannins also consist of polyphenolic compounds which have antibacterial, antioxidant and astringent activities. The results of the analysis regarding the content of secondary metabolite compounds in curry leaf extract play an important role in the development of future medicines and need to be carried out to provide knowledge to the public. This study can be a basis for bioactive content for further research to expand the use of medicinal plants in the future, especially curry plants.&lt;/p&gt;

Growth is an increase in physical size and body structure while development is an increase in body structure and function in terms of movement, speech, language, socialization, and independence. The first five years of a child's life are a time of building learning, social, and emotional skills.1Children who receive stimulation provide good benefits for growth in body weight and mental development.2However, the growth and development of toddlers can experience disorders. The role of parents in monitoring the growth and development of toddlers is very important because it will influence the child's behavior as an adult. Applying parenting knowledge to children as early as possible is beneficial for the development of children's cognition and socio-emotional behavior.3Parenting is the overall interaction of parents with children that affect children's psychological and social.4Parenting groups are effective for increasing children's development, especially physical growth. The application of parenting techniques can be a method or way to help parents take better care of their children. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;This study aimed to know the methods and implementers that can monitor the growth and development of toddlers. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;This systematic review refers to the 2020 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The databases used to search for articles are Pubmed and Google Scholar. The studies used were assessed using eight criteria from Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE). A total of 10 of 45,388 articles met the inclusion criteria for review. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The programs for monitoring the growth and development of toddlers using an application is considered more effective for training family independence in preventing disease. Monitoring the growth and development of toddlers can be carried out by health workers, child development agents, researchers, and parents.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Parents can be effective implementers of monitoring because they are the closest people and the first for education place to their children. The use of the application is considered very effective for monitoring the growth and development of toddlers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;rtejustify&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Introduction:&lt;/strong&gt; In the context of the increasing prevalence of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, the search for natural compounds with potential impact on glycemic regulation has become a crucial area of research. Among the numerous options available, &lt;em&gt;Vaccinium corymbosum&lt;/em&gt; extract, commonly known as &quot;blueberry&quot;, has emerged as a promising candidate due to its rich composition of phytochemicals with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and hypoglycemic properties. The aim of this study was to determine the total phenolic content (TPC) and the activity of &lt;em&gt;Vaccinium corymbosum&lt;/em&gt; (&quot;blueberry&quot;) fruit extract on glycemia in healthy mice. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The Folin-Ciocalteau method was applied in order to quantify the phenolic compounds and the BE was administered to 25 mice distributed in six groups: control, negative control, experimental-D1- D2-D3, which were administered the BE in doses of 40, 80 and 120 mg/kg b.w. respectively; and insulin group; which were subjected to the glucose tolerance test (GTT) taking blood samples after 30, 60, 120 and 180 minutes. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The total phenolic content (TPC) amount found in the berries was 3.79±0.06 GAE/dry weight (mg/g) and 18.96±0.28 GAE/solution (mg/L). Statistically significant differences were observed between the three doses of BE and the negative control during GTT as well as induced a significant reduction in area under the curve (AUC) compared to the negative control. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; the three doses of the BE decreased glucose levels being the dose of 40 mg/kg b.w. the one that produced a statistically significant decrease with respect to the doses of 80 and 120 mg/kg b.w. during GTT.&lt;/p&gt;

Group I (Control) received no treatment, Group II (0.1% Origanum vulgare cream), Group III (0.5% Origanum vulgare cream), and Group IV (1% Origanum vulgare cream) received treatment for eight days. Skin lesions were measured on days 4 and 7. At the end of treatment, they were euthanized using sodium pentobarbital 60 m/kg v.ip. Skin samples were obtained and preserved in 10% formalin for histopathological analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;When measuring the size of the skin lesions induced in the study groups, it was observed that in the control group, the decrease in the length of the lesions occurred on the fifth day; in group II, III, and IV, the lesions length decrease occurs on the second day. At the end of the experience, the measurements of the lesions were much smaller for the III and IV groups (0.33 and 0.41, respectively) compared to the control group (0.40 cm). On day seven, statistically significant difference was found on skin lesion measure between Group IV and the Control, with a significance level of p&amp;lt;0.05. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It is concluded that the 1% Origanum vulgare essential oil-based cream has a healing effect on dermal lesions induced in Mus musculus Balb/c.&lt;/p&gt;

However, few studies have assessed its toxicity. Therefore, this study aimed to determine acute and sub-toxicity levels of&lt;em&gt; C. edulis &lt;/em&gt;methanol extract. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In the acute toxicity probe, a limit test was conducted whereby the extract was given as a solo dose by gavage. The rats were observed for two weeks. The observations included mortality and changes in the general appearance and behavior of the experimental animals. The body weights of the rats were taken weekly. For the sub-acute toxicity probe, the rats received the extract daily at dosages 300, 520, and 900 mg/kg by gavage for 28 days. Body weights were also taken weekly. On day twenty-nine, the weights of the rats were taken, the rats were sacrificed, and blood was collected for biochemical and hematological analysis. Body organs were harvested, and their weights were taken. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The results of the acute toxicity probe showed that the extract didn’t cause mortality or toxicity signs throughout the study duration. The LD50 of the extract was therefore deemed to be above 2,000 mg/kg. The sub-acute toxicity probe results demonstrated that the extract, at all the tested dosages, didn’t cause mortality or affect the rats’ organ weights, body weights, or hematological and biochemical parameters throughout the study duration. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions&lt;/strong&gt;: In conclusion, the methanol extract of &lt;em&gt;C. edulis&lt;/em&gt; is not toxic since it didn’t cause mortality or toxicity signs in both acute and sub-acute toxicity probes.&lt;/p&gt;

In this sense, the aim of this work was to evaluate the anticancer and neuroprotective effects of the triterpene glycosides from sea cucumber &lt;em&gt;Holothuria imitans&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Triterpene glycosides were separated and purified by Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Their structures were deduced by spectral analysis and chemical evidence. Cytotoxic activity was evaluated using normal African green monkey kidney epithelial cell line (VERO) and three cancer cell lines: cancer gastric (MKN-28), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) and lung carcinoma (A-549). Besides, the neuroprotective effect was studied using the Cath.a-differentiated (CAD) cell line and human glial (Oligodendrocytic) hybrid cell line (MO3.13). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Two triterpene glycosides (Fuscocineroside C and Scabraside D) were isolated, which showed low cytotoxic activity against VERO cell line, and high cytotoxic activity against lines MKN-28, MCF-7 and A-549 cells, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;between the ranges of 0.92 μmol/L to 2.61 μmol/L. The isolated triterpene glycosides showed the ability to regain mitochondrial viability in CAD and MO3.13 cells treated with neurotoxin (C2-ceramide) with statistically significant results (p&amp;lt;0.05).&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The triterpene glycosides Fuscocineroside C and Scabraside D isolated from sea cucumber Holothuria imitans show anticancer and neuroprotective potential and may be considered promising active principles for anticancer and neuroprotective drugs.&lt;/p&gt;

Despite tremendous advances in the treatments of diseases, several concerns remain. Those with inflammatory components are alternatively treated or completed in Burkina Faso with medicinal plants. The present study was designed to identify and evaluate the anti-inflammatory potential of glycoside flavonoids from &lt;em&gt;Pterocarpus Erinaceus &lt;/em&gt;leaves. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The ﬂavonoids contained in &lt;em&gt;Pterocarpus Erinaceus&lt;/em&gt; aerial parts were extracted, identified, and characterized. Sequential soxhlet extraction was subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening, and characterization of isolated ﬂavonoid was done by U.V., I.R., 1H &amp;amp; 13C N.M.R. and MS. Subsequently, isolates were tested&lt;em&gt; in vitro&lt;/em&gt; for their antiinflammatory potential as well as their antioxidant capacities. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Five compounds were determined as corresponding to 3’,4’,5,7-tetrahydroxy flavone (luteolin); quercetin-3-O- sophoroside; quercetin- 3-0-β-glucose (isoquercitrin); Kaempferol-3-O-sophoroside and 3,3’,4’,5,7-pentahydroxyflavone-3- rhamnoglucoside (rutin). Concentrations of quercetin-3-O- sophoroside and quercetin-3-0-β-glucose that inhibit 50% of pro-inflammatory enzymes’ activities were expressed in μg/mL. They were respectively 18.07 ± 0.78 and 32.27 ± 2.02 for xanthine oxidase, 1.12 ± 0.018 and 11.53 ± 0.52 for lipoxygenase, 26.91 ± 0.34 and 19.54 ± 0.25 for acetylcholinesterase. Prevention of the degradation of deoxyribose test gave respectively 19.32 ± 1.08 μg/mL and 26.21 ± 2.25 μg/mL for quercetin-3-O- sophoroside and quercetin-3-O- β-glucose while the anti-DPPH free radical potential was 3.41 ± 0.82 and 2.90 ± 0.18 μg/ mL. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;These results may justify the traditional uses of P. erinaceus in treating diseases with an inflammatory component.&lt;/p&gt;

The methodology included an observational design, with in and out surveys being conducted during the study. The first survey sought to discover the level of approach of post-COVID-19 patients with the use of comics, while the second examined the effectiveness and usefulness after being exposed to a brochure of four comics (Figure 1) that combined humor and information related to the recovery procedures for COVID-19. The research showed that the usefulness of comics as an informative and therapeutic resource in post-COVID-19 patients in the city of Ayacucho is very significant. This was confirmed by 96% of those surveyed, since they pointed out that the comics contributed to virus infection recovery and prevention.&lt;/p&gt;

The research methods include molecular modeling with Pymol and Pyrex, determination of compound structure and interactions with Protein Plus, and examination of physicochemical properties using the Lipinski Rule. The results show that the Binding Affinity of salicylate with Carbonic Anhydrase I ranges from -7.3 to -6.5, with RMSD values of 0, 2.102, and 2.212, indicating good modeling quality. The interaction between salicylate and Carbonic Anhydrase I is also supported by the findings from Protein Plus. Furthermore, the salicylate compound complies with the Lipinski Rule, with a molecular weight of 137, 1 hydrogen bond donor, 3 hydrogen bond acceptors, a log P value of 0.34, and a molar reactivity of 34.16. This study highlights the prospect of salicylate as a potential modulator of Carbonic Anhydrase I.&lt;/p&gt;

Flavonoids have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can accelerate wound healing and can stimulate the formation of osteoblasts. Analyzing the differences in the number of osteoblasts in the negative control group, positive control given aloe vera gel 15% and ramania leaf extract gel 15% on day 5, 7 and 14. This study used true experimental design with posttest-only control design, using 27 rats divide into 3 groups. The experimental animals were sacrificed on days 5, 7 and 14 for histopathological observations. Two-Way ANOVA test results obtained p value = 0.013 &amp;lt;0.05, which indicates that there is a significant difference between the use of 15% ramania leaf extract gel 15% and the number of osteoblasts on days 5, 7 and 14. Bonferroni's Post Hoc test showed a difference. The number of osteoblasts was significant among the negative control group with ramania leaf extract gel 15%. Ramania leaf extract gel 15% was proven to be able to increase the number of osteoblasts and has the potential as an alternative medicine for socket healing after tooth extraction.&lt;/p&gt;

Furthermore, a quasi-experimental study was conducted, where 81 participants were divided into two groups, comprising a waiting list control group and an experimental group treated with essential oils. Anxiety and depression indexes were evaluated using the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), and sleep quality was measured with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Inventory (PSQI). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Chemical analysis showed that 1,8 cineole (37.6%), α-pinene (19.9%), and linalool (15.8%) were the main components. Anxiety, depression, and sleep quality scores showed a decrease in the post-test study phase compared to the pre-test in the experimental group (p&amp;lt;0.05). A large size effect was found in the case of anxiety (d = 1.491; g= 1.490) with 1-β=0.996, while medium size effects were observed for depression (d = 0.581; g= 0.582) with 1-β=0.585; and sleep quality (d = 0.586; g = 0.588) with 1-β=0.638. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Essential oils extracted from &lt;em&gt;Rosmarinus officinalis&lt;/em&gt; are more effective in calming anxiety and show moderate changes in depression and sleep quality.&lt;/p&gt;

High mangosteen production affects the amount of mangosteen peel waste. On the other hand, mangosteen peel has been identified as a rich source in health benefits and has proven to be antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and anti-carcinogenic. Traditionally, one of the conventional medicines used in wound dressings or infection medicine. It can be a possibility for patch wound healing development, especially for diabetic ulcers with an open wound, wetness, chronic infections, and high inflammation. This research aims to innovate wound dressings (patch) that contain active compounds from mangosteen peel as herbs with many active compounds to enhance the wound healing process with low toxic side effects. The patch developed from organic material from bacterial cellulose. The research was carried out with the initial process of making patches from bacterial cellulose (BC), then adding mangosteen peel extract as patch dressing with different concentrations (0%, 1%, 2%, 5%, and 10% v/v). Furthermore, the patch was applied to the injured Wistar rat, for 15 days. The wound area was measured using Image-J. The results of measuring the wound area showed significant wound improvement every day at each dose of the mangosteen patch compared with the control group. The optimum dose that appears to be different from the control is 10% v/v mangosteen peel extract which has been able to leave 3% of the wound area on the 15th day.&lt;/p&gt;

In particular, it is of great practical significance to clarify the use of the plant from ancient medical books and scriptures and to determine which of the six main diseases were used in traditional medicine. &lt;strong&gt;Purpose&lt;/strong&gt;: To compare the information of the ancient medical books written by Mongolian doctors and scientists, who wrote about Paeonia anomala L. and to clarify the taste, potency, strength, and quality. &lt;strong&gt;Research materials and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Research materials: Sumbe khamba Ishbaljir. “gso dpyad bdud rtsi 'i chu rgyun gyi cha lag gi nang tshan gyi sman so so'i mngon brjod dang ngos 'dzin shel dkar me long”. Wooden printing block with Tibetan script. Toin Jambaldorj. “gso byed bdud rtsi'i 'khrul med ngos 'dzin bzo rig me long du rnam par shar ba mdzes mtshar mig rgyan zhes bya ba bzhugs so”. Wooden printing block with Tibetan script. Research methods: Methods of textual analysis for ancient medical books and checklists were used in the study.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: The use of Paeonia anomala has been enriched with indications for use in traditional Mongolian medicine, Mongolian folk medicine, Russian folk medicine, and Chinese, Japanese, and Korean traditional medicine. In his book &quot;ngos 'dzin shel dkar me long&quot;, the ancient medical scientist Sumbe khamba Ishbaljir wrote the name of the Paeonia anomala plant in Sanskrit as shogandha and in Tibetan as baspru. On the other hand, Toin Jambaldorj noted in his book &quot;mtshar mig rgyan&quot; wrote Paeonia anomala has a warm and equable quality, thus it can create potency. Therefore, it is appropriate to note that this plant in traditional Mongolian medicine is mainly used to treat back pain caused by cold conditions, chronic kidney disease, arthritis, uterine benign tumors, and bladder stones.&lt;/p&gt;

However, there are still fewer studied medicinal plants of practical importance growing in Mongolia. Therefore, there is a need to register and study the ancient medicinal books written by ancient Mongolian doctors about the relatively little-studied&lt;em&gt; Veronica Incana&lt;/em&gt; plant. In addition, taking into account that scientific research on &lt;em&gt;Veronica Incana,&lt;/em&gt; which grows in Mongolia, has not been done in the field of medicine. Therefore, the topic was selected for research in this field.&lt;strong&gt; Purpose:&lt;/strong&gt; Comparing the information of the ancient medical books written by Mongolian doctors and scientists, who wrote about&lt;em&gt; Veronica Incana,&lt;/em&gt; to clarify the taste, power, and quality. Research materials and methods: 1. &lt;strong&gt;Research materials:&lt;/strong&gt; Sumbe khamba Ishbaljir. gso dpyad bdud rtsi 'i chu rgyun gyi cha lag gi nang tshan gyi sman so so'i mngon brjod dang ngos 'dzin shel dkar me long. &lt;em&gt;Wooden printing block&lt;/em&gt; with&lt;em&gt; Tibetan&lt;/em&gt; script.

Research methods: Methods of textual analysis for ancient books and checklist methods were used in the study. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Gandhabhatra plant is used in traditional Mongolian medicinal practices from ancient times, the plant is called &lt;em&gt;Veronica Incana&lt;/em&gt; in Latin. Also called Buural gandbadraa in Mongolian. On the other hand, the traditional medical doctors of China's Inner Mongolia and Tibet use Gandbadraa, the Latin name Gnaphalium affine D. Don. The appearance, shape, and color of the flowers of these two plants are different. According to the research of the source, the main instruction and usage of the plants are the same: to destroy benign tumors, to remove poison, to treat colds, and to stop cough.&lt;/p&gt;

However, this rich traditional knowledge on plant utilization was not well documented, and most of the indigenous knowledge acquired by the local people was verbally passed from generation to generation. The people of Konso in South Ethiopia use and maintain traditional medicinal plant species, according to their specific ethnobotanical pharmacopeia. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A total of 80 informants aged 25 to 87 years old were chosen (10 individuals of which 5 healers and 5 clients) from the 24 key informants were identified representing 6 from each kebele. The present study explores the unique indigenous knowledge that enables the community to identify medicinal plants, prepare medications, and then apply the cures used to treat a variety of human diseases as dangers to their long-term use. This study was carried out from September 2018 to July 2019. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: Some medicinal plant species are more popular than others &lt;em&gt;Lepidium sativum, Hagenia abyssinica&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Allium sativum &lt;/em&gt;were cited by all the 80 informants for their medicinal value. Powdered form was directly used from 40.0% of the medicinal plant species, while 51.4% are chewed, extracted with water, and / or with butter (17.1% each) and 8.6% are extracted with local beer. Of the herbal remedies used in the study area, 68.6% were applied orally and 31.4% were applied externally. Roots are the parts mostly used (35.7%), followed by leaves (32.9%), combination of parts (18.6%), root bark (5.7%), fruit (2.9%), in that order, respectively. It was known that highest source of the medicinal plants was the forest (45.3%). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions&lt;/strong&gt;: Home gardens and agro forests together contribute 41.86% of the medicinal plants. This study was undertaken to bring awareness towards community-based in-situ and ex-situ conservation actions, attracting younger generations to grab the indigenous knowledge from the parents and ancestors and strengthening home gardens and other agro-forestry systems be used as repositories of medicinal plant species and alternative conservation sites to preserve the traditional medicinal plant species of the study area.&lt;/p&gt;

Though studies have been published citing the analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity of &lt;em&gt;Oroxyulum indicum&lt;/em&gt; and chrysin and Baicalein, there has been no comparative study comparing their activittes and confirming them with molecular docking results. Molecular docking study of two phytochemicals Chrysin (PubChem CID 5281607) and Baicalein (PubChem CID 5281605) into the active sites of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Evaluation and validation of Anti-inflammatory and Analgesic effects of a methanolic extract of the stem bark of Oroxylum indicum and its two constituents Chrysin and Baicalein in Charles foster rats with analysis of the phytoconstituent of &lt;em&gt;Oroxyulum indicum &lt;/em&gt;through HRMS analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Methodology: &lt;/strong&gt;UHPLC-HRMS/MS analyses were performed on a Dionex Ultimate 3000 RS Series UHPLC system combined with a Q Exactive Plus High-Resolution Accurate Mass Spectrometry System. Hot plate and Tal flick model are used for screening of analgesic activity. TNF-alpha and IL-6 inflammatory markers were examined. Carrageenan model is used for antiinflammatory analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Result: &lt;/strong&gt;Interesting results has been obtained in the docking studies of Chrysin and Baicalein with COX-1 (PDB ID: 1EQG). The hydrogen bond interaction established between the Chrysin and Baicalein with the important amino acid, includes Arg 120, Tyr 355, Ser 530, Met 522 (Figure 1). The binding free energy of the Chrysin and Baicalein with target COX-1 was found to be -7.88 and -7.26 Kcal/mol. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; There is marked reduction in the TNF Alpha expression in the OIE group which is followed by Baicalein and Chrysine. The Baicalein group shows the most marked cumulative increase in reaction time for tail flick among all the groups of the intervention group followed by Chrysine and OIE.&lt;/p&gt;

Computational approaches were employed to predict the molecular interactions between Rosmarinic Acid and Tyrosine FYN. The research methodology involved the use of software such as Pymol, Pyrex, Protein Plus, and the Lepinski Rule. Docking analysis was conducted using Pymol to obtain information about the binding energy between Rosmarinic Acid and Tyrosine FYN. The results of the analysis showed that Rosmarinic Acid exhibited a Binding Affinity of -8.3, -8, and -7.9, indicating a strong affinity towards the target protein. Additionally, Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) values of 0, 15.905, and 17.014 were used to assess the stability of the formed protein-ligand complex. Analysis using Protein Plus revealed interactions between Rosmarinic Acid and Tyrosine FYN. Furthermore, analysis using the Lepinski Rule to examine the physicochemical properties of Rosmarinic Acid indicated that the molecule had a mass of 360, 5 hydrogen bond donors, 8 hydrogen bond acceptors, a log P value of 1.76, and a molar reactivity of 89.8. These findings highlight the potential of Rosmarinic Acid as an inhibitor of Hepatitis E through its interaction with the Tyrosine FYN protein, providing a basis for the development of potential new therapies in the treatment of this disease.&lt;/p&gt;

Choisy holds Convolvulaceae family the leafy parts underwent a Soxhlet extraction with ethanol which was then subjected to a phytochemical investigation that shows the presence of alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, terpenoids, tannins, glycosides saponins, sterols, and carbohydrates. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Firstly, the ethanolic leaf extract is treated with petroleum ether to remove excess lipids, sterols, and impurities. TLC was performed by toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid and the same solvent system was used for column chromatography. The bands getting separated into the column were collected separately in a test tube. Once the solvent toluene ends, the next solvent system with 18 ml of toluene and 2 ml of ethyl acetate, is introduced into the column, and continues the separation procedure. Collect separated bands and perform TLC of each separate band by using the same solvent system in a concentration of 5:4:1. A single component on a TLC plate with a solvent system of 12 ml toluene and 8 ml ethyl acetate was obtained whose characterization was done by IR, NMR, and mass. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The RF value of Rutin is 0.17 which correlates with the Retention factor of ethanolic leaf extracts of RH by HPTLC comparative studies and a compound was isolated by column chromatography. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;These studies have concluded that a compound is separated by means of HPTLC and spectroscopic interpretation and identified as Rutin.&lt;/p&gt;

This study utilizes methods such as Swiss Target Prediction, Pymol, Pyrex, Protein Plus, and Lipinski's Rule to predict the biological activity and pharmacokinetic characteristics of sitogluside. From the docking simulation results, sitogluside exhibited strong interactions with interleukin-2 with RMSD values of 0, 1.637, and 2.299, and Binding Affinities of -5.7, -5.5, and -5.5, indicating its potential effectiveness as an inhibitor. In addition, sitogluside fulfills Lipinski's rule with a molecular mass of 520, 4 hydrogen bond donors and acceptors, a log P value of 2.3, and a molar reactivity of 133, indicating a high potential for good bioavailability in biological systems. These results suggest that sitogluside from the clove plant holds potential as a new therapy in inhibiting B and T cell proliferation, however further research is needed to validate these findings and explore its potential in clinical treatments.&lt;/p&gt;

The research method involved an&lt;em&gt; in-silico &lt;/em&gt;approach using software such as Pymol, PyRx, Protein Plus, and the Lepinski Rule. The results of the study showed that cynaroside has a significant interaction with TNF Alpha, as indicated by high Binding Affinity values of -9.6, -9.3, and -9.2. Analysis using Protein Plus confirmed the interaction between cynaroside and TNF Alpha. Additionally, evaluation using the Lepinski Rule of Five revealed that cynaroside has physicochemical characteristics suitable as a potential drug compound, with a mass of 448, hydrogen bond donors of 7, hydrogen bond acceptors of 11, log p -0.401, and molar reactivity of 105.2. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the potential of cynaroside in regulating the immune response to malaria and asthma through its interaction with TNF Alpha. These results can serve as an important basis for further research in the development of more targeted and effective therapies for both of these diseases&lt;/p&gt;

Efforts to deal with anemia are making food in the form of Moringa biscuits and sori fish which are rich in nutrients. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of giving Moringa mixed sori biscuits on blood hemoglobin levels in adolescents. The type of research is a quasi-experimental conducted in June- September 2021 at Coastal Region Public Middle Schools throughout Kendari City in 2021, namely at SMPN 4 Kendari, SMPN 5 Kendari, SMPN 10 Kendari, SMPN 15 Kendari and SMPN 16 Kendari. The sample is anemic adolescent girls in the coastal area of Kendari City. The intervention sample was anemic adolescent girls who were given moringa biscuits mixed with sori fish flour as many as 36 people and the control sample was anemic adolescent girls who were not given moringa biscuits mixed with sori fish flour as many as 36 people. The case sampling technique used cluster random sampling and the control sample used matching. Data collection of blood hemoglobin levels using a portable device brand Easy Touch Meter. Data were analyzed using independent t-test test. The results of the study found blood hemoglobin levels before and after Moringa biscuits were given, namely in the case group before the intervention the average Hb level reached 10.51 mg/dl and after the intervention it reached 12.45 mg/ dl, while in the control group before the intervention it was 12.79 mg/dl and after intervention 13.49 mg/ dl. The results of the independent t-test obtained p value 0.000. The conclusion is that there is an effect of giving Moringa fish biscuits mixed with Sori fish flour on hemoglobin levels. Suggestions for young women are expected to increase the intake of protein sources of nutrients such as fish, eggs, tofu and tempeh and iron (Fe) which can be obtained from green vegetables such as Moringa to prevent and treat anemia.&lt;/p&gt;

However, this local knowledge has not been recorded until today. The quantitative approach of ethnomedicinal documented show the usefulness of plant. More application medicinal plant, more pharmacological reported, more drug discovery potential development. This study aims to understanding the utilization of plants for medicinal treatment by the people of Banceuy tribe, Subang village, Indonesia. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;We conducted semi-structured interviews with a total of 35 informants that representative 10% of the total family units in Banceuy. The data has been analysed within species use value (SUV), family use value (FUV), plant part use (PPU), and the relative frequency of citation that was calculated based on fidelity level (FL). &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; We found 91 identified species and 3 unidentified species belonging of 41 group of families to treat 26 types of diseases. Among the recorded, Zingiberaceae and Piperaceae were the most abundant. The plant specieses with the highest SUV were &lt;em&gt;Abelmoschus manihot&lt;/em&gt; (L.) Medik. (0.74) and &lt;em&gt;Ageratum conyzoides&lt;/em&gt; L. (0.71). The leaves were found as the most used plant part and decoction was the dominant plants in medicinal administration. There were several unique traditional medicine treatments in Banceuy, such as tuak for cough ailment and post-partum treatment by mixed leaves concoction. Finally, all the data documented would be importance for new drug discovery, dried herbal market, as well as improving the society local income.&lt;/p&gt;

The research method involves the use of software such as Pymol, Pyrex, Protein Plus, and Lepinski Rule. Firstly, the protein structure of the target Protein Kinase PIM1 was obtained from a protein database and prepared using Pymol. Next, the molecular structure of Emodin was imported into Pyrex and subjected to geometry optimization. Docking analysis using Pymol was performed to predict the molecular interactions between Emodin and Protein Kinase PIM1. Additionally, RMSD analysis was conducted to evaluate the stability of the protein-ligand complex formed. The docking analysis results showed that Emodin exhibited significant Binding Affinity, with values of -8.4, -8.3, and -8.2, indicating a strong affinity between Emodin and Protein Kinase PIM1. The RMSD analysis indicated the stability of the protein-ligand complex, with RMSD values of 0, 1.101, and 1.122. Furthermore, analysis using Protein Plus revealed the presence of interactions between Emodin and Protein Kinase PIM1 through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic contacts. The results of the Lepinski Rule analysis demonstrated that Emodin fulfilled several important criteria in drug design, including a molecular weight of 270, 3 hydrogen bond donors, 5 hydrogen bond acceptors, a log p value of 1.887220, and a molar reactivity of 64.480385. These findings indicate the potential of Emodin as a stimulator of Protein Kinase PIM1 in the central nervous system and provide an important foundation for the development of potential therapies for central nervous system-related disorders.&lt;/p&gt;

The &lt;em&gt;in-silico &lt;/em&gt;approach was employed using software tools such as Pymol, PyRx, Protein Plus, and Lepinski Rule. The results of molecular docking analysis using PyRx demonstrated significant interactions between sinensetin and ABCG2, with Binding Affinity values of -6.8, -6.6, and -6.6, and RMSD values of 0, 0.785, and 1.379. The analysis using Protein Plus confirmed the interaction between sinensetin and ABCG2, supporting the previous docking findings. Furthermore, the evaluation of pharmacokinetic parameters using the Lepinski Rule of Five revealed that sinensetin meets the criteria as a potential drug compound, with a molecular weight of 372, no hydrogen bond donors, seven hydrogen bond acceptors, a log P value of 3.345, and a molar reactivity of 98.5. This research provides new insights into the development of uric acid therapy through an &lt;em&gt;in-silico &lt;/em&gt;approach, and these findings can serve as a basis for further research involving in vitro and in vivo validation.&lt;/p&gt;

Jamblang (&lt;em&gt;Syzygium cumini&lt;/em&gt;) leaves are rich in phenolic compounds that can inhibit free radicals causing premature aging. Therefore, this study aims to determine the potential of &lt;em&gt;S. cumin&lt;/em&gt;i serum extract as sun protection. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract was prepared and included in the serum base. The formulations were evaluated for rheological, pH, dispersion coefficient, and stability examinations. Furthermore, Sun Protection Factor was tested using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The test of phytochemical compounds showed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, tannins, saponins, quinones, monoterpenoids, sesquiterpenoids, triterpenoids, and steroids. The result also showed that all serum formulations met the predetermined requirements. Furthermore, the extract has protective activity against ultraviolet rays, which was indicated by the SPF value. The higher the dose of &lt;em&gt;S. cumini&lt;/em&gt; extracts in the serum formulation, the higher the value obtained. Formulations 1, 2, and 3 have SPF of 9.35±0.11, 13.26±0.16, and 26.05±0.31, respectively. This indicates that they all met the Indonesian National Standard, that a sun protection preparation must have a minimum protection factor of 4. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;S. cumini&lt;/em&gt; extract serum has the potential to be developed as a new sun protection agent against ultraviolet radiation. However, further studies are still needed to determine the mechanism of its constituent active compounds.&lt;/p&gt;

B. Rob.) Merr.) has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine due to its nutritional and bioactive contents. &lt;strong&gt;Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: An acute oral toxicity test was conducted following the OECD 425 guidelines to investigate the toxic effects of freeze-dried lipote fruit extract (LFE) in male and female ICR mice at doses of 55, 175, 550, 2000, and 5000 mg/kg BW.&lt;strong&gt; Results&lt;/strong&gt;: At the end of the 14-day experimentation period, no physical, behavioral, neurologic, or cardiorespiratory signs of toxicity nor mortalities were recorded in LFE-treated mice. Also, physiologic parameters such as body weight, and feed and water intake registered normal throughout the study. Hematologic values such as total RBC, total WBC, and differential WBC for both sexes remained normal, apart from the male mouse administered with 2000 mg/kg LFE dose which presented erythrocytopenia, leukocytopenia, and lymphocytopenia after the end of the experimentation period, most likely due to extraneous factors unrelated to treatment. Meanwhile, the blood creatinine and blood urea nitrogen values remained within their respective normal reference ranges.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: It can be inferred from results of this acute oral toxicity study that LFE is relatively non-toxic, has an LD50 above 5000 mg/kg, and like other closely related&lt;em&gt; Syzygium &lt;/em&gt;berries, does not elicit any adverse effects on the physiologic, hematologic, and blood chemical levels of kidney-filtered substances in mice. Sub-chronic and chronic toxicity studies must be conducted to determine the safety of continuous oral ingestion of lipote fruit.&lt;/p&gt;

The purpose of the study was to identify the potential of bioactive compounds in purslane (&lt;em&gt;Portulaca oleracea&lt;/em&gt; L.) and star anise (&lt;em&gt;Illicium verum&lt;/em&gt; Hook) via a dual inhibitor mechanism against SARS-CoV-2 proteases with an&lt;em&gt; in silico &lt;/em&gt;approach. The samples were obtained from PubChem and RSCB PDB. Antivirus probability prediction was performed on PASS Online. Virtual screening was performed with PyRx via molecular docking. Visualization was used by PyMol and Discovery Studio. Compounds with the best antiviral potential are indicated by the low binding affinity value to the target proteins, namely SARS-CoV-2 TMPRSS2 and PLpro. The results showed that purslane luteolin has the best antiviral potential. However, further studies are required to validate this computational prediction.&lt;/p&gt;

More than 100 countries in the world located in tropical and subtropical areas, there are at least 100 to 400 million people infected with the dengue virus which causes dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Soluble Non Structural Protein (sNS1) DENV is a soluble NS1 protein that is secreted and found in the serum of patients during acute infection. Because of its presence early in infection, sNS1 is used as a diagnostic indicator of acute dengue infection. NS1 can directly activate platelets through TLR4 and can further increase platelet aggregation, endothelial cell adhesion, and phagocytosis by macrophages that can cause thrombocytopenia so that high sNS1 levels are associated with disease severity. From the results of the study showed p &amp;lt;0.05. This indicates that there is a correlation between the presence of NS1 and the severity of dengue infection.&lt;/p&gt;

Furthermore, hyperlipidemia has a risk factor for cardiovascular complications through atherosclerosis that triggers coronary heart disease (CHD). &lt;em&gt;Spatholobus littoralis&lt;/em&gt; Hassk known as Bajakah tea is a plant with high antioxidant content and acts as an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor to suppress lipid metabolism disorders, increase HDL levels, and reduce triglycerides and total cholesterol. Experimental and posttest control group design methods were used to obtain 24 male Wistar rats. Furthermore, the experimental animals were randomly divided into 4 groups, namely K1 (normal rats), K2 (hyperlipidemia rats), K3 (hyperlipidemic rats + pirated tea extract dose 9 mg/200gramBW/day), and K4 (hyperlipidemic rats + simvastatin dose 0.18 mg/200 gBW/day). The study was conducted at the Center for Food and Nutrition Studies Laboratory, Gajah Mada University, Yogyakarta. Data levels of HDL, triglycerides, and total cholesterol were analyzed using the One Way Anova test and LSD post hoc to determine between groups. The results showed that an increase in triglyceride and total cholesterol and a decrease in HDL levels in the K2 group compared to the K1. Triglyceride and total cholesterol decreased in groups K3 and K4 compared to K2, and HDL levels increased in groups K3 and K4 compared to K2. Meanwhile, the results of the analysis obtained p value &amp;lt;0.05. This study concluded that the administration of Bajakah tea extract at a dose of 9 mg/200gram BW/day for 14 days increase HDL, reduce triglyceride and total cholesterol levels (p&amp;lt;0,05).&lt;/p&gt;

Furthermore, a quasi-experimental study was conducted, where 61 participants were divided in two groups, comprising an experimental with essential oils and a control group with no treatment. Main psychological symptoms were assessed with the used of Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) as well as total score of premenstrual syndrome was evaluated with Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS).&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; chemical analysis showed that linalool (17.6%) was the main component. All variables showed a decrease in posttest study phase in comparison with pretest in experimental group (p&amp;lt;0.05). A large size effect was observed for anxiety (d = 1.25; Δ = 1.35). Besides, moderate changes were found for depression (d = 0.79; Δ= 0.81) and premenstrual syndrome total score (d = 0.62; Δ = 0.56)&lt;strong&gt;. Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The essential oil of&lt;em&gt; Satureja brevicalyx &lt;/em&gt;exerts a potencial use, especially for the treatment of psychological symptoms of premenstrual syndrome.&lt;/p&gt;

The use of enteral rute is limited because of high variability of bioavailability. Intravenous paracetamol commonly used as accessible analgetic in adult. There are limited data about efficacy and tolerability intravenous paracetamol compares to oral paracetamol as antipiretic in children. The aim of the study is to analyse efficacy and tolerability intravenous paracetamol compared to oral paracetamol for treating fever in children. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A randomized, controlled, and open labelled clinical trial was conducted at pediatric ward Soetomo hospital Surabaya. Eligible patients received either intravenous paracetamol or oral paracetamol 10 mg/kgBW and were examined for temperature at 15, 30, 45, 60, 120, 180 and 240 minutes. Tolerability evaluations included adverse event (AE), physical exam and laboratory assessments. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Of 104 patients, 52 received intravenous paracetamol intravena and 52 received oral paracetamol. Mean temperature intravenous group were lower than oral groups, with higher degree of decrease. The difference were achieved at 30, 45, and 60 minutes with p=0.005, 0.002, and 0.006 respectively. Maximum decrease from baseline were achieved at 120-minute for intravenous grup and 180-minute for oral groups. Normal temperature achievement were higher in intravenous group than oral. The adverse event were comparable between the intravenous and oral groups. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Intravenous paracetamol is more effective and as safe as oral paracetamol in reducing fever in children.&lt;/p&gt;

Administration of &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea&lt;/em&gt; has been reported to reduce hyperglycemia, oxidative stress and increase insulin secretion in diabetic rats and humans. However, the poor bioavailability and intestinal absorption of &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea &lt;/em&gt;impede its therapeutic effectiveness at a lower dosage, thus integrating &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea&lt;/em&gt; into brown rice will provide additional advantages. This study aimed to examine the phyto-physicochemical profile, antioxidant properties, consumer acceptance, and safety of beverages formulated from fine powder mixtures of &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea&lt;/em&gt; leaves and brown rice. &lt;strong&gt;Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: The new beverage formulations were prepared by mixing the fine powders of &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea l&lt;/em&gt;eaves with brown rice at ratios of 1:6 and 1:13, respectively. Physicochemical, phytochemical, and antioxidant analyses were performed to characterize the prepared beverages. Consumer acceptance was assessed utilising a 9-point hedonic scale and an acute toxicity study was employed to determine the safety of &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea-&lt;/em&gt;added formulations. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;em&gt; F. deltoidea&lt;/em&gt; decreased the pH and increased the moisture content, ash, and viscosity of a brown rice beverage. The total phenolic, flavonoid, and tannin content as well as antioxidant activities increased significantly in both&lt;em&gt; F. deltoidea-&lt;/em&gt;added formulations. The oral LD&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;of the&lt;em&gt; F. deltoidea&lt;/em&gt;-added formulation was higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; These results suggest that adding &lt;em&gt;F. deltoidea&lt;/em&gt; leaves to brown rice beverages is safe to consume and improves the phyto-physicochemical profile, antioxidant activities, and consumers’ acceptance of the formulation.&lt;/p&gt;

Bhandari (Guggul) is native to semi-arid to arid zones. Its oleoresin gum is used for both medicinal and non-medicinal applications. Reportedly, the species faces high degree conservation threats. A network of Four Medicinal Plants Conservation Areas (MPCA) was carved out in Kachchh region- under financial support from National Medicinal Plants Board. The species also occurs in sanctuary and protected by default. It is considered important to assess genetic diversity of these conserved populations. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A total of 38 accessions of Guggul leaves were collected from five study sites and the whole genomic DNA was extracted for each sample. Genetic study was carried out using ISSR technique. Scorable bands were obtained for 14 out of 40 primers tested. A total of 49 bands were obtained of which 20 were polymorphic in nature. UPGMA dendrograms were constructed for individual sites and also a collective dendrogram for all the study sites.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All the 8 accessions of Tharawada MPCA were observed to share a high similarity coefficient. Among rest of three sites, genetic diversity was seen to be narrow. The accessions obtained from NSWS displayed good diversity. These accessions were also noted to be distant to the populations captured in the MPCA sites. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions&lt;/strong&gt;: Established MPCA sites capture the available gene pool of &lt;em&gt;Commiphora wightii&lt;/em&gt; of Kachchh region. Since NSWS populations are distant to rest of the region, it is suggested to create another site for this purpose. It is desirable to assess the genetic diversity in rest of the MPCA sites.&lt;/p&gt;

The purpose of this study was to determine the potential of mangosteen (&lt;em&gt;Garcinia mangostana &lt;/em&gt;L.) as an inhibitor of RBD spike, helicase, Mpro, and RdRp activity of SARS-CoV-2 with an&lt;em&gt; in silico &lt;/em&gt;approach. The samples were obtained from PubChem and RCSB PDB. Analysis of the similarity of the drug was carried out with the Swiss ADME on the basis of Lipinski rule of five. Prediction of antivirus probabilities was carried out using PASS Online. Molecular screening was performed using PyRx through molecular docking. Discovery Studio was used for visualization. The bioactive compounds with the highest antiviral potential were indicated with the lowest binding affinity to the targeted proteins RBD spike, helicase, Mpro, and RdRp of SARS-CoV-2. The results indicated that mangiferin has the greatest potential as a potential antiviral. However, more research is required to validate the results of these computational predictions.&lt;/p&gt;

The result shows that&lt;em&gt; M. oleifera &lt;/em&gt;was a potential antiviral candidate for SARS-CoV-2 with an entry inhibitor mechanism through a compound, especially quercetin. The RFMS value of both interactions between M&lt;sup&gt;pro &lt;/sup&gt;and quercetion and RdRp with quercetin were not higher than 1.05. This result still needed further research to prove this prediction.&lt;/p&gt;

Most human cancer cells are formed as a result of over-expression of anti-apoptotic proteins. Thus, the activation of these proteins can inhibit pro-apoptotic proteins, then apoptosis will be inhibited so that other apoptotic pathways need to be activated to prevent cancer cells from developing. Current cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy using synthetic compounds, have various side effects, so research on natural based therapies can be used as an alternative in cancer treatment. &lt;em&gt;Curcuma sumatrana&lt;/em&gt; is one of the plants of the Zingiberaceae family which is an endemic plant from Sumatra which is found along the Bukit Barisan. The research was carried out in silico by analyzing the potential bioactivity of the compounds, testing the bioavailability, toxicity, and molecular docking of the bioactive compounds from the ethanol extract of the rhizome of&lt;em&gt; C. sumatrana&lt;/em&gt; which had been previously identified through gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GCMS) analysis. The results obtained that the compound 9-Acetyl-S-octahydrophenanthrene and 3-Oxoandrosta- 1,4-dien-17.beta.-spiro-2'-3'-oxo-oxetanecontained in &lt;em&gt;C. sumatrana &lt;/em&gt;has the potential to be developed as an anticancer where the compound has good bioavailability value and is not toxic and potentially can trigger apoptosis. However, the results of this study need to be analyzed further with an in vitro or in vivo approach.&lt;/p&gt;

Aberrantly phosphorylated or overexpressed EGFR is associated with cellular proliferation, prevention of apoptosis, activation of invasion and metastasis, and stimulation of tumor-induced neovascularization. EGFR’s hyperactivity has been observed in ovarian cancer. Although conventional chemotherapy and surgery for advanced ovarian cancer have improved over the years, still there is a critical need for the development of molecular targeted therapies. The major challenge for this approach is the complete understanding of the protein structure of this mega receptor. In this study, we explored this receptor using &lt;em&gt;in silico&lt;/em&gt; tools. The protein structure of the EGFR kinase domain (PDB ID: 1M17) and co-crystal containing EGFR and PTP1B kinase domain fragment (PDB ID: 3I7Z) were obtained from the RCSB Protein Data Bank. We performed protein-protein docking using BioLuminate. It was found in this study that the DADEYL segment of EGFR (position 988-993) which includes autophosphorylated tyrosine at position 992, is the segment that is responsible for the overexpression of this receptor in ovarian cancer. There are currently two main classes of clinically-approved drugs which downregulate EGFR activity; tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and monoclonal antibodies (Mabs). However, treatment with both type of therapies has been met with shortcomings. Therefore, there is a need for further studies to explore the suitable ligands that can downregulate its activity.&lt;/p&gt;

A phytochemical analysis was carried out to confirm the chemical groups. In the pharmacological study, hyperglycemia was induced with alloxan at doses of 170 mg/kg in male albino mice, animals with blood sugar levels above 250 mg/dL were included in the protocol. Mice were randomized into five groups (I: Alloxan 170 mg/Kg; II, III and IV (&lt;em&gt;Geranium ruizii &lt;/em&gt;extract: 50; 150 and 300 mg/Kg body weight); and V: glibenclamide, 5mg/Kg B.W. Results: Phytochemical analysis confirmed the presence of tannins, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenes, saponins and phenolic compounds. It is observed that at doses of 50, 150 and 300 mg/kg reduced blood glucose at 14 days of treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The hypoglycemic effect of the hydroalcoholic extract of &lt;em&gt;Geranium ruizii&lt;/em&gt;, administered orally in mice with alloxan-induced hyperglycemia was effective with 150 mg/Kg body weight.&lt;/p&gt;

(Lam.) known as &quot;sweet potato&quot; is a plant species of great importance in the human diet due to the contribution of nutrients and also for its bioactive compounds that have various medicinal properties. Its anticancer activity is one of the properties that attract the attention of researchers in the study of plant species. This review aims to make a critical compilation of current information on research that evaluated the antitumor and antiproliferative activity of &lt;em&gt;Ipomoea batatas. &lt;/em&gt;The studies included in this review show a diversity of bioactive compounds present in&lt;em&gt; Ipomoea batatas&lt;/em&gt; such as phenolic compounds, anthocyanins, flavonoids, coumarins and sterols; also isolated compounds such as pectin, peptides and glycoproteins that can be related to their biological activity. It is concluded that there are positive results about &lt;em&gt;Ipomoea batatas&lt;/em&gt; and its anticancer activity evaluated through in vitro and &lt;em&gt;in vivo &lt;/em&gt;tests. In humans, safety and efficacy trials are still lacking to support its future use and allow drug development. Further research evaluating the safety and efficacy of reported bioactive compounds in &lt;em&gt;Ipomoea batatas &lt;/em&gt;is important for the development of this promising area.&lt;/p&gt;

There is no scientific study carried out on its toxicological effects so far. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To understand the ayurvedic preparation method for KT and assessment of the toxicological effects of the KT and VCO on SH-SY5Y cell lines and&lt;em&gt; Drosophila melanogaster&lt;/em&gt; embryos. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The SH-SY5Y cell lines treated with different concentrations of KT and VCO range from 6.25 μg/ml to 100 μg/ml and&lt;em&gt; Drosophila melanogaster &lt;/em&gt;embryos fed with food containing different concentrations of KT and VCO, ranging from 0.005 % to 10 %. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: KT and VCO did not show any significant cytotoxicity effect on SH-SY5Y cell lines up to a dose concentration of 25 μg. But, at 50 μg and 100 μg concentrations, KT has shown a cytotoxic effect and it was higher than the VCO. The toxicological analysis in &lt;em&gt;Drosophila&lt;/em&gt; has shown that the survival rate of the KT treated group at concentration ranges from 0.005 % to 10 % is significantly decreased from 78.8 % to 27.7 %, compared to the control group, whereas in VCO treated group, at 0.005 % to 10 %, the survival rate has decreased from 76.2 % to 66 %, which is marginally higher than the KT treated group. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Our findings revealed that as the concentration of Rasayana in the medium increases, there is a noticeable adverse effect on the percentage viability in SH-SY5Y cell lines and in the number of offspring in &lt;em&gt;Drosophila. &lt;/em&gt;The effect of vehicle, VCO, at the same concentration has shown a protective effect on cell lines and flies. It can be concluded that the toxic effect has been observed only at higher concentrations of KT and at the lower concentration, the toxic effect has been minimal.&lt;/p&gt;

The antioxidant activity of methanol extract and fractionated was performed using the 1-diphenyl-2-Pycrilhydrazil (DPPH) method. The antioxidant activity test of methanol extract and fractionated n-hexane, ethyl acetate and residue yielded IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 6.87, 169.99, 31.55 and 44.75 ppm. The ethyl acetate fraction extract with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;31.55 ppm was performed by column chromatography using silica gel G60 as the stationary phase and n-hexane: ethyl acetate as the mobile phase. The results of column chromatography obtained 181 fractions and were combined based on the stain pattern into 4 subfractions. Antioxidant test of each subfraction showed that the ASE 3 subfraction had the strongest antioxidant activity. Furthermore, the subfraction was analyzed using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). According, GC-MS data analysis showed that the third subfraction contained 19 phytochemical compounds, where 3 compounds having the highest concentration, namely 4,4'-((p-Phenylene)diisopropylidene) diphenol, dodecanoic acid, methyl ester and phthalic acid, isobutyl 2-methylpent-3-yl ester.&lt;/p&gt;

The extracts were obtained through maceration with 96° ethanol (SeR96), 70° ethanol (SeR70), 50° ethanol (SeR50) and through infused water (SeRAc). Secondary metabolites were identified through colorimetric reactions and precipitation. In each extract, we could determine the capacity to eliminate 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH), the reduction of ferric ion and the total polyphenol content. In addition, the activity on the plasma membrane redox system (PMRS) was evaluated in each extract. The protection against oxidative stress in erythrocytes was evaluated by determining the content of reduced glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA). &lt;strong&gt;Results.&lt;/strong&gt; Alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, sesquiterpene lactones and sugars were identified in all the extracts. The total polyphenols content showed a correlation with the reduction of ferric ion (r=0.885) and with DPPH radicals elimination (r = -0.899), where the one with the highest antioxidant capacity was SeR50. Thus, the SeR50 (all concentrations) and SeR70 (100 μg/mL concentration) significantly increased the PMRS activity compared to the control group. After inducing oxidative stress in erythrocytes, all the extracts maintained the GSH level and inhibited MDA formation significantly compared to the H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; group. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion.&lt;/strong&gt; The antioxidant capacity of hydroalcoholic extracts (96°, 70°, 50°) and aqueous infusion of &lt;em&gt;Senecio rhizomatus &lt;/em&gt;Rusby is related to the content of polyphenols. They increase the plasma membrane redox system activity in rat erythrocytes and protect them from oxidative stress induced with H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, showing an increase in the concentration of reduced glutathione and a decrease in malondialdehyde.&lt;/p&gt;

Finding a potent medicinal plants that can prevent pigment disorder. Objective: This study was to investigate the potential of leaf extract from&lt;em&gt; Azadirachta indica&lt;/em&gt; var &lt;em&gt;siamensis valeton&lt;/em&gt; to inhibit melanin formation or melanogenesis. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;A.indica&lt;/em&gt; leaf extract was tested for phenolic and flavonoid content assay. Tests using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay were administered to determine the toxicity of &lt;em&gt;A.indica &lt;/em&gt;leaf extract in B16F10 melanoma cells. Melanin content and tyrosinase activity assays were used to determine the potential for the inhibition of melanogenesis. Data was analyzed using SPSS. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;It was found that &lt;em&gt;A.indica &lt;/em&gt;leaf extract per gram has a total phenolic content of 28.73 ± 0.30 mg gallic acid equivalents and flavonoid of 12.48 ± 0.00 mg rutin equivalent. In addition, we found that these herbal extracts decreased the melanin content and intracellular tyrosinase activity in B16F10 melanoma cells without any toxicity. This study suggested that the melanin content and intracellular tyrosinase activity in B16F10 melanoma cells were decreased without any cytotoxicity by the &lt;em&gt;A.indica&lt;/em&gt; leaf water extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The findings demonstrated that &lt;em&gt;A.indica&lt;/em&gt; leaf water extract inhibits melanin production through reducing tyrosinase activity. These results could be useful as a therapeutic treatment for skin hyperpigmentation disorders as well as an effective ingredient in whitening cosmetics.&lt;/p&gt;

About 98% of Xylene is extracted from the petrochemical and petrol refining factories. It is one of the major genotoxicant part in petroleum, which may initiate various diseases but malignancy is questionable. Taking into consideration, we intend to identify the urinary methyl hippuric acid level which is metabolic product of xylene among petroleum station employees as well as in healthy persons. &lt;strong&gt;Aims and Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; To identify the occupational exposure of xylene in petrol station employees by assessing urinary methyl hippuric acid level. To determine and compare the level of urinary methyl hippuric acid among healthy individuals and petrol station employees. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Urine samples were collected from 30 healthy individual (control) and 30 petroleum employees (case) working in petroleum station who are above 18 years of age. The urinary methyl hippuric acid (MHA) level was analysed by using Shimadzu UV-Visible Spectrophotometer method.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The urinary Methyl hippuric acid level was significantly higher in petroleum station employees than in healthy individuals (p&amp;lt;0.001). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The urinary MHA level is a helpful tool to identify the occupational exposure of people who work in petrol and petroleum product. Subsequently, our investigation accentuates that proper precautionary measure and efficiently bio-observing should be taken among petrol station employees which will assist with reducing their likely degrees of risk related with the occupation. It might start the cancer-causing disease through the cellular DNA changes and induce genotoxic effects.&lt;/p&gt;

However, this valuable traditional knowledge on utilization of plants was not much documented and hence, most of the indigenous knowledge acquired by the local people has been passed on from generation to generation by the word of mouth. Ethnobotanical study is of the use and maintenance of traditional medicinal plant species by the people of Aleta Chuko woreda, South Ethiopia. The study made an attempt to assess the indigenous knowledge that equips the community to identify the medicinal plants, formulate the medicines and subsequently administer the curatives used to treat various human and livestock diseases as the threats that could affect their sustainable use. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 100 informants (85 males and 15 females) were selected to collect information on medicinal plant use from five selected kebeles by using non-probability sampling method. Relevant ethnobotanical information was collected through semi-structured interview, field observation and group discussion. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear correlation coefficient. The study was carried out from September, 2017 to July, 2018. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; A total of 53 medicinal plant species representing 49 genera and 30 plant families used in the treatment of 92 (81 human and 11 livestock) different ailments. The plant families Lamiaceae, Rutaceae, and Asteraceae were the most dominant groups. Out of the total recorded medicinal plant species, 79%, 11 % and 10%, were used for treating human, livestock and both humans and livestock health problems respectively. Stomachache and cough were the most common health problems of the study area affecting both humans and animals. 60% of the medicinal plant species were collected from the wild/forest and the remaining 40%were collected from the Homegardens. Herbs were the dominant medicinal plant habit, followed by shrubs and trees. Leaves are the dominant plant part used in formulating curative preparations. The most dominant methods of preparation were crushing and pounding and 70.5% is the dominant route of oral administration. &lt;em&gt;Fagaropsis angolensis&lt;/em&gt; was the most effective curatives species against stomach ache, the most common human disease in the study area, followed by &lt;em&gt;Leonotis nepetifolia,&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Ajuga integrifolia,&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Ocimum lamiifolium&lt;/em&gt; was the most preferred medicinal plant to treat headache followed by Echinops kebericho and&lt;em&gt; Salvia nilotica. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The Coffee-Enset based home gardens which characterize the study area make a substantial contribution to the conservation of medicinal plants species. In order to conserve the traditional medicinal plant species of the study area, community-based &lt;em&gt;in-situ&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; ex-situ&lt;/em&gt; conservation actions, awareness creation in the younger members, and strengthening home gardens and other components of the agro-forestry systems to be used as repositories of medicinal plant species and alternative conservation sites are recommended.&lt;/p&gt;

However, biosafety evaluations on these mushrooms are rarely conducted. Thus, we sought to evaluate the concentration or presence of Heavy metals in P. ostreatus mushrooms cultivated on agro-bio-waste products. Furthermore, the effect of adding agro wastes on wheat bran (WB) cultivated mushrooms was evaluated. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Mushrooms grown in sugar cane tops and bagasse were supplemented with varying levels of WB. Atomic absorption spectrophotometer was applied to evaluate the concentration of heavy metals in the substrates and within mushrooms. Furthermore, DPPH free radical scavenging activity was used to determine antioxidant activity of mushroom extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The transfer factor analysis (TF) showed that mushrooms have an affinity to absorb Zn, Cd, Cu and Cr from all tested substrates during cultivation (TF&amp;gt;1). The addition of WB supplement into substrates resulted into significant increase in mushroom yield. However, the increased addition of WB, inversely affected the DPPH scavenging activity of the&lt;em&gt; P.ostreatus&lt;/em&gt; methanolic extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The bioabsorption of heavy metals by &lt;em&gt;P. ostreatus&lt;/em&gt; is depended on the metal type. Based on these findings, mushrooms grown on these agro-waste appear to be safe and potent scavenging ability against free radicals.&lt;/p&gt;

Anticonvulsant activity was determined using three chemoconvulsants: kainic acid (KA), strychnine, or pentylenetetrazole (PTZ). Anxiolytic-like effects were determined using the elevated plus maze test on mice. GABA release evoked by GC-PS2 or Gsp-PS2 content was determined by HPLC. Neuroprotective effects of Gsp-PS2 or Gc-PS2 were determined by glial activation, histopathological changes, and immunohistochemistry. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Gc-PS2 or Gsp-PS2 showed neuroprotective activity by diminishing neuronal death, reducing glial activation and Neu-N expression levels. Gsp-PS2 or Gc-PS2 inhibited convulsions in the KA model. An anxiolytic-like, but not a sedative effect was reported in mice treated with Gc-PS2 or Gsp-PS2. Polysaccharides Gc-PS2 or Gsp-PS2 evoked endogenous GABA release and increased its concentration within the incubation medium. Pretreatment with Gsp-PS2 or Gc-PS2 showed a reduction of the LPSinduced NO production. Gc-PS2 or Gsp-PS2 did not produce toxic effects. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ganoderma &lt;/em&gt;sp. or &lt;em&gt;Ganoderma curtisii &lt;/em&gt;polysaccharides showed neuroprotective and anticonvulsant activities in animal models. The anticonvulsant activity may involve the GABAergic neurotransmision.&lt;/p&gt;

This study undertook to evaluate the anti-proliferative activity on cancer cells and its cytotoxic effect on normal cells. Here we are reporting for the first time the metabolomic profiling of &lt;em&gt;G. cowa&lt;/em&gt; leaf. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Anti-proliferative potential of ethyl acetate and methanol extract of &lt;em&gt;Garcinia cowa&lt;/em&gt; leaf assessed by MTT assay. Metabolomic profiling obtained by GC/ MS analysis. Nuclear morphology visualized by DAPI staining. Caspase activation analysed through spectrophotometric assay.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study reveals, that the methanolic extract is more potential in inducing anti-proliferative activity than ethyl acetate extract. Robust antiproliferative activity of the methanolic extract evidenced in lung cancer cell line, A549 followed by MCF–7, HepG2, MOLT – 4, MDA-MB-468 cells. The anti-proliferative effect was negligible in normal PBMC. Further, a dose-dependent increase of nuclear fragmentation visualized in A549 cells treated with the methanolic extract. Post methanolic extract treatment upregulation of caspase-3 and caspase-9 also evidenced in A549 cells. GC/MS analysis revealed the presence of phytoconstituents of different phytochemical groups comprising of 3.45% diterpenoid, 5.45% triterpenoid, 11.24% steroid, 2.03% phytosterol, etc. in methanol extract, as well as 4.53% diterpenoid, 2.88% triterpenoid, 1.09% steroid, 2.11% phytosterol, etc. in ethyl acetate extract with considerable biological importance. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This is the maiden report of the metabolomic profiling of leaf extracts of&lt;em&gt; Garcinia cowa&lt;/em&gt; which possess a good repository of potentially bioactive molecules that holds a great promise as a future therapeutic agent in combating lung cancer.&lt;/p&gt;

Based on the results of &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;evaluation, the extracts selected were subjected to &lt;em&gt;in vivo &lt;/em&gt;evaluation on the Wistar albino rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus. Initially, acute toxicity of the extracts was evaluated and the effective dose (ED&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) was fixed. Standard drug Glibenclamide was used for the comparative evaluation. Two doses of test extracts, low dose and high dose were administered to the test animals and their antidiabetic activity was evaluated by means of monitoring the changes in the blood glucose level, hematological and biochemical parameters and histopathology of liver and pancreas of test animals. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Based on the results of &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;evaluation, the ethyl acetate and methanol extracts were selected for the in vivo evaluation. ED50 of the test extracts were fixed as 200mg.kg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt;. Two doses, 200mg.kg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; and 400mg.kg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; of the test extracts were subjected to evaluation. Both the tested extracts possessed the activity, but the methanol, extracts showed significant activity in all aspects. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Results of the present study strongly support the antidiabetic activity of tested extracts. Further studies on toxicity, identification isolation of the potential compounds may give useful results for the development of clinically useful chemotherapeutic agents in the future.&lt;/p&gt;

Here small plants as well as trees and shrubs are met. &lt;em&gt;Cotinus coggygria &lt;/em&gt;of Armenian flora is used in folk medicine. The aim of this investigation was to determine the chemical composition of Armenian flora’s smoke trees leaves’ essential oil and antiradical activity of ethanol extract of leaves and branches of smoke tree. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The aerial parts were extracted by hydrodistillation method, and the composition was analyzed by gas chromatograph interfaced to a mass spectrometer. Antiradical activity of essential oil from leaves and branches was determined by using appropriate methods. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The total amount of flavonoids has been determined in the leaves of the smoke tree by miricetin. This analysis revealed that the flavonoid amount in ethanol extract of&lt;em&gt; C. coggygria&lt;/em&gt;, growing in Armenia, was 0,94%. In volatile oil of Smoke tree leaves 22 compounds were determined. The results demonstrated that in the essential oil of leaves of Cotinus from Armenian flora predominated Germacrene D, Linalool, formate, ά –Terpineol sesquiterpenes and diterpene alcohol Thunbergol. Ethanol extracts of leaves and branches of Smoke tree showed antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;From the results, it is evident that &lt;em&gt;C. coggygria&lt;/em&gt; from Armenia flora contains various bioactive compounds and the extracts of leaves pronounced higher antioxidant activity and recommended as a plant of phytopharmaceutical importance.&lt;/p&gt;

The neurophysiological bases of pain have been analyzed and the potential mechanisms of action have been proposed, it has also been determined that the main experimental models used for the evaluation of the analgesic potential are: acetic acid-induced writhing test, formalin test, hot-plate test, capsaicin-induced nociception, cinnamaldehyde-induced nociception, glutamate-induced nociception, tail–flick test and tail immersion test. There are countless medicinal plants with potential analgesic activity, in some of them main responsible compounds for the activity are flavonoids (vitexin, quercetin, naringenin, astragalin, eupatilin), alkaloids (scotanamine B, bullatine A, S-(+)- dicentrine, stephalagine, lappaconitine), terpenoids (p-cymene, thymol, menthol, citronellol, myrcene, carvacrol, linalool) and saponins (siolmatroside I, cayaponoside D, cayaponoside B4, cayaponoside A1); however, all studies have only been carried out up to pre-clinical stages. Therefore, it is recommended to carry out kinetic studies of the most remarkable natural compounds, evaluate mixtures of active compounds for diminishing doses to avoide possible side effects, and continue with clinical studies of medicinal plants whose safety has already been reported.&lt;/p&gt;

The mechanism of ethionamide-induced hypothyroidism is potentially caused by the structure of ethionamide compounds chemically similar to thioamide, such as propylthiouracil (C7H8N2S), which inhibits thyroid hormone synthesis. However, hypothyroidism is caused not only by a lack of production but also by signaling alteration. Thyroid hormone action is mediated by thyroid hormone receptors (TRs), members of the nuclear receptor superfamily that regulate their target genes. Unfortunately, there are limited studies on the potential interaction of ethionamide with TRs. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;In the present study, we want to elaborate on the potential interaction of ethionamide with TRs which might alter the thyroid hormone genomic regulation. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Molecular docking studies were used to evaluate the potential interaction between ethionamide with TRα and TRβ. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The molecular docking results on TRα showed more than one hydrogen bond–steric interaction formed from the ethionamide–amino acid residue interaction. Ethionamide–TRβ interaction showed more than one steric interaction, but the hydrogen bonds are not visualized. The docking score between ethionamide and TRα is −7.373 kcal/ mol and higher than its interaction with TRβ. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;These findings indicate that ethionamide can interact with TRα and TRβ. However, the ethionamide–TRα interaction is stronger than ethionamide–TRβ interaction. Our study reports a novel mechanism of action of ethionamide-induced hypothyroidism.&lt;/p&gt;

Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and irreversible neurological disorder that occurs gradually, a sickness that is increasingly common, and multiple scientific articles suggest that essential oils improve memory and learning and are useful in the treatment of various neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. This review aims to conduct a critical collection of current information on research into both memory and learning impairment, as well as essential oils that are able to avoid this neurodegenerative disease. Currently, different animal models have been useful for the study of neurodegenerative problems that alter memory and learning, experimental pharmacological, genetic and toxicological models that can simulate specific cognitive deficit syndromes. In addition, research in this review show several essential oil compounds that present positive results in animal studies, but still lack human clinical trials. Therefore, the assessment of the safety and efficacy of these phytochemical compounds in diseases that cause memory impairment and learning, remain a promising area for future research.&lt;/p&gt;

Colchicine, codeine, piperine, papaverine, ergometrine, theophylline, theobromine and caffeine are recognized safe alkaloids and used for many human disfunctions. The chemical structures of alkaloids have flexible chemical moieties with various electronic and chemical characters. COVID-19 is a horrible disease as result from that the discovering of potent drugs from previously FDA approved drugs is the main objective of this study. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; docking studies were used for discovering the interactions of alkaloids with protease proteins. The nature of selected alkaloids structures was utilized for advance insights studies to predict new medical applications. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Docking studies for alkaloids were completed and the obtained outcomes, displayed that all tried alkaloids have great attraction with the five protease proteins, the energy docking score ranged from -2.9516 (for colchicine with 5R82) to -24.7449 (for ergotamine with 5R80) kcal/mol with 1-5 variable interactions bond. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Among the tested drugs, papaverine and ergometrine revealed high docking scores for all five proteins (score ranged from, -14.1058 to 23.1619 for papaverine and, -4.7900 to 24.7449 for ergometrine) and number of interactions with all tested proteins are two to three for papaverine but for ergometrine are two to five.&lt;/p&gt;

Therefore, it would be favorable to find promising agents with antioxidant and antimicrobial activity combined in one molecule. &lt;strong&gt;Key findings:&lt;/strong&gt; Pyrimido[4,5-b] quinolines are biologically active compounds that are known to rely primarily on the functional group’s existence and location. Quinolinbenzo-[ 1,3]oxazin-4-one &lt;strong&gt;(3)&lt;/strong&gt; was prepared and played as electrophilic interface/mediator for the synthesis of many compounds, such as pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline, quinoline-carboxamide and oxoquinazolin-acetamide by reacting with nucleophilic reagent. &lt;strong&gt;Summary: &lt;/strong&gt;Results revealed that pyrimido[4,5-b] quinoline derivatives (&lt;strong&gt;17b, 9d&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;9c&lt;/strong&gt;) are the most potent compounds that displayed significant antimicrobial activity along with compounds 17a, 29b, 5, 19, 23b, and 25b that appeared to be more promising as antioxidant agents than ascorbic acid.&lt;/p&gt;

The extracts were subjected to MTT assay for their anticancer potential against HeLa (cervical cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer) and HCT116 (colon cancer) cell lines, and based on the results, NHTS was subjected to flow cytometry for TNF-Alpha expression in HCT-116 cells. The antitubercular activity for the extracts was performed against &lt;em&gt;Mycobacterium tuberculosis&lt;/em&gt; H&lt;sub&gt;37&lt;/sub&gt;Rv (Mtb) by luciferase reporter phage (LPS) assay method.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The result of anticancer screening revealed that n-hexane extracts showed the significant inhibition (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05) on HCT-116 cells with the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 177.4 μg/ml, whereas EATS and ELTS were equally active on HeLa with the respective IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 236 and 277 μg/ml. The NHTS was significantly effective on decreasing (&lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05) TNF-Alpha expression (31.27 MFU) in HCT-116 cells and is closely active with standard simvastatin (26.7 MFU) against the control (7.06 MFU). The antitubercular activity results revealed the equi-potency of both NHTS and EATS on Mtb with growth inhibition of 84 % at 100μg/ml. The GC-MS analyses of NHTS confirmed the presence of Berberine, palmatine, tembertarine, magniflorine, choline and tinosporin. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Overall, we scientifically support the traditional use&lt;em&gt; Tinospora sinensis&lt;/em&gt; stem in the treatment of cancer and immune diseases.&lt;/p&gt;

Studies have determined that this plant contains a great diversity of bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential like charantin, α-momorcharin and MAP30, and highlighting its properties as antidiabetic, antiulcer, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anthelmintic, antihyperglycemic and anticancer. Review shows the complete botanical description of the plant (fruits, leaves, stem, etc.), the bioactive chemical compounds reported in the plant species, the antimicrobial activity of the extracts or fractions of &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt;, emphasizing the antibacterial and antifungal activities, with respective values of MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) reported according to the methodology used in each study. The review seeks to update the phytochemical and pharmacological knowledge of &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt;, which would be useful for researchers in their search for new chemical compounds of the plant, studies of its safety and efficacy, as well as the evaluation of its possible synergistic action in combination with other antimicrobials, in order to find new therapeutic alternatives against bacterial resistance.&lt;/p&gt;

The hepatoprotective potential of the two plants was evaluated for the first time in male rats with thioacetamide induced liver injury. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;A total of 32 secondary metabolites were identified in the ethyl acetate fractions of the aerial parts of both species. Ellagitannins such as tetragalloyl hexoside, ellagic acid, gallic acid, and flavonoids such as kaempferol-3-O-β-(6''-galloyl-Oglucopyranoside), quercetin glycosides (glucoside and arabinoside) were found to be the major components in &lt;em&gt;Ep &lt;/em&gt;whereas flavonoid glycosides including quercetin rutinoside, quercetin glycosides (glucoside, arabinoside and rhamnoside) and kaempeferol glycoside derivatives were highly abundant in &lt;em&gt;Eg. &lt;/em&gt;Administration of thioacetamide resulted in marked elevation in liver enzymes, elevation of lipid profile and alteration in oxidative stress parameters. While pretreatment of rats with &lt;em&gt;Ep&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; Eg&lt;/em&gt; ethyl acetate fractions significantly attenuated the hepatic toxicity through reduction of liver biomarkers, improving the redox status of the tissue and so brought down the serum biochemical parameters and lipid profile nearly toward the normal levels. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The studied fractions show hepatoprotective potential with promising value as hepatoprotective drugs of natural origin in comparison with silymarin as the standard hepatoprotective drug.&lt;/p&gt;

(Family Brassicaceae) is known to possess different pharmacological properties. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;The genoprotective role of flavonoids of &lt;em&gt;L. sativum &lt;/em&gt;methanolic seed extract (LSF) against cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced DNA damage, in somatic and germ cells of mice, as well as characterization of the flavonoidal content were carried out in this study. Chromosomal aberration analysis in somatic and germ cells were also included. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Six mice groups were used for this study. Group 1 served as a negative control. Group 2 received oral LSF (100 mg/kg b.wt.) for 5 consecutive days. Group 3 served as a positive control by receiving a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) CP dose (20 mg/kg b.wt.). The three other groups were orally administered 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg b.wt. LSF, respectively, for 5 consecutive days. On the last day of treatment, the three groups received i.p. injection of CP (20 mg/kg b.wt.). Flavonoids were identified using spectral analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;LSF inhibited DNA aberrations in mice caused by cyclophosphamide dose dependently in the three groups with significant difference in the two groups that received doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg b.wt. The chromosomal aberrations inhibitory indices were calculated as 18 and 31 in mice somatic cells and 27 and 48 in germ cells, respectively. LSF was found to contain the flavonoids kaempferol, quercetin, kaempferol-3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside, kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, and quercetin-3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;LSF inhibited the DNA damage induced by CP in somatic and germ cells of mice dose-dependently. The antioxidant properties associated with flavonoids might account for the genoprotective activity.&lt;/p&gt;

It has various medicinal properties such as antimicrobial, pain relief, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, antioxidants, anticancer etc. It is commonly used for treating diabetes, arthritis, limbs stiffness, rheumatism, lumbago, earache, fever. Type of solvent and polarity intensively affects the antioxidant activity of the extracts due to the solubility of the phytocompounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids in various solvents.&lt;strong&gt; Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;In this study, different solvents like, ethanol, methanol, chloroform and petroleum ether were used for the extraction of &lt;em&gt;C. halicacabum&lt;/em&gt;. Cold maceration method was followed for extraction. The crude extracts were screened preliminary and then confirmed using Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy analysis. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to determine the chemical composition of each extract. The DPPH (2,2-diphenyl- 1-picrylhydrazyl) method was used for the evaluation of the antioxidant activity of different crude extracts of &lt;em&gt;C. halicacabum.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results showed that there is significant influence of solvent type in preserving various phytocompounds of the &lt;em&gt;C. halicacabum&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract. The evaluation of the antioxidant capacity of different crude extracts was in the order of ethanol &amp;gt; methanol &amp;gt; petroleum ether &amp;gt; chloroform extract.&lt;/p&gt;

However, the therapeutic active principles of this plant remained unknown. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The main objective of the study was to characterize antienterobacterial dichloromethane fraction of the volatile oils of it by GC-MS. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In the present study, dichloromethane (DCM) fraction (MP-DCMf) of Mandukaparni was collected by phase separation of the methanol extract and tested for anti-enterobacterial potentiality against human pathogenic gastrointestinal and food poisoning bacteria by agar well diffusion assay, viability assay and LDH assay and SEM studies. Characterization of the active MP-DCMf fraction was performed by TLC and GC-MS analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The MP-DCMf possessed bio-active compounds that have antibacterial potentiality against both the Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria. The MIC and MBC values were in the range from 1.56 mg/ml to 0.78 mg/ml and 6.25 to 1.56 mg/ml, respectively. The time kill assay showed that at a dose of 3.12 mg/ml of MP-DCMf was lethal to the &lt;em&gt;E. coli&lt;/em&gt; MTCC 723 at the 18th hr of treatment. LDH release had moderate positive correlation with the activity index and time of treatment whereas strong negative correlation with CFU count. It caused highest cell disruption in &lt;em&gt;S. mutans.&lt;/em&gt; The principal compounds were D-carvon (30.949%);1H-Isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione; 2-(2-chlorophenyl) (28.483%);Cyclohexanone; 2-methyl-5-(1-methylethen) trans (10.04%); D-Limnone (9.256%);2,6-Octadien-1-ol, 3,7-dimethyl- acetate (6.684%); p-Cresol (0.551%), and Thymol (0.118%). Pub-chem database search also supports that these compounds have very strong bactericidal activity by membrane damage as evidenced by LDH and SEM studies. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; MP-DCMf contains many potential antibacterial compounds that can be used to combat the gastrointestinal and food poising bacterial pathogens.&lt;/p&gt;

Biochemical blood parameters like aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), urea and creatinine, and histopathologic changes of liver and kidney were studied and evaluated. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;A. absinthium &lt;/em&gt;reduced the elevated blood levels of ALT, AST, ALP, urea and creatinine with the methanol extract to 200 mg/kg/day being more effective. The histopathologic evaluation suggested that &lt;em&gt;A. absinthium &lt;/em&gt;decreased hepatic and renal necrosis induced by diclofenac. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;Hepatoprotective and nephroprotective activities of methanol and ethyl acetate extract of &lt;em&gt;A. absinthium&lt;/em&gt; were demonstrated, being methanol extract to 200 mg/kg/day the most effective. This provides scientific support for the use of medicinal plants such as&lt;em&gt; A. absinthium &lt;/em&gt;in the treatment of liver and kidney disorders.&lt;/p&gt;

On day 30, all the animals were sacrificed. Plasma levels of TGF-β, IL-4, and IFN-y were measured using the ELISA method, and the expression of α-SMA in myofibroblast cells was examined with the help of immunohistochemistry assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Induction with bleomycin significantly elevated the expressions of TGF-β, IL-4, and IFN-y in comparison to the control group. Following the administration of kefir (3.5 and 4.5 mL/200 g BW), the concentration of TGF-β was significantly decreased (p&amp;lt;0.05); whereas, the concentration of IFN-y increased slightly (p&amp;lt;0.05) only in the group that received the 4.5 mL/200 g BW dose of kefir. In contrast, IL-4 exhibited increasing levels with higher doses of kefir (p&amp;lt;0.05). The expression of α-SMA in myofibroblasts showed a tendency to decline following the administration of kefir, although this decline was not statistically significant.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Goat kefir caused a reduction in the TGF-β levels in fibrosis conditions; however, the kefir elicited an immunosuppressive effect during the progression of the pulmonary fibrosis.&lt;/p&gt;

Lamour. species is well studied; they have found applications in the food, cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical industries. The main groups of biologically active compounds are polysaccharides (alginic acid, laminarin, mannitol, fucoidan, and others) and minerals (iodine compounds, magnesium, potassium, calcium, iron) that are determined according to pharmacopoeial and All-Union State Standards requirements.&lt;strong&gt; Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;For data obtaining various types of search tools and engines such as Google, Google scholar, scientific literature (including Russian sources), normative documentation of Russian Federation (State Pharmacopoeia of Russian Federation IV edition, All-Union State Standards, and others) electronic databases such as e-Library, Scopus, Web of Science, Pubmed were used. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In the course of this review study, a modern characteristic of the kelp thallus as a pharmaceutical, cosmeceutical, food substance of plant origin is presented. The data on the chemical composition, harvesting, and processing of raw materials are summarized. The standardization and safety issues of kelp thallus are considered taking into account modern pharmacopoeial and food international requirements. The approaches to the qualitative and quantitative analysis of biologically active compounds (polysaccharides, iodine) and the determination of safety indicators are studied. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The regulatory documentation that is used in the quality control of kelp needs to be finalized and updated. For pharmacopoeial analysis, all possible physicochemical methods (gravimetric, titrimetric, spectrophotometric) should be presented in the newly approved monograph. In this case, modern procedures should be developed, including HPLC with various types of detection (determination of the carbohydrates profile and polysaccharides, including methods with acid and enzyme hydrolysis). This will ensure the required level of quality, the safety of kelp (Laminaria) raw materials.&lt;/p&gt;

It is therefore necessary to prove the biological activities of the selected plants scientifically using modern technology. The current study focuses on the use of &lt;em&gt;Cardiospermum halicacabum &lt;/em&gt;in their wound healing applications. &lt;em&gt;Cardiospermum halicacabum&lt;/em&gt; is a well-known plant that has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic properties and it is also used to treat joint pains, muscle tears, back pain, etc. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this study methanolic extracts of the active compounds from &lt;em&gt;Cardiospermum halicacabum &lt;/em&gt;were tested for its phytochemical attributes by qualitative method, GC-MS, and the antioxidant properties were also assessed. The bactericidal activity and Minimal Inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the plant extract has been evaluated in both Gram +ve and Gram -ve microorganisms using the disc diffusion method. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results obtained showed the presence of significant antibacterial and antioxidant activity. The plant extract was found to be more active against Gram positive microbes compared to Gram negative microbes. The extract has the radical scavenging activity of about 77%. And the GCMS results showed the presence of different phytocompounds which are greatly known for their pharmacognistic activities.&lt;/p&gt;

The sample consists of 36 individuals selected randomly from each locality. The major chemical groups were determined by conventional methods using specific general reagents. The determination of total polyphenols and total flavonoids, the 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazyl (DPPH.) radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing of antioxidant power (FRAP) were evaluated by spectrophotometry. &lt;strong&gt;Results and Discussion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results of the photochemical screening revealed the presence of saponins, alkaloids, sterols and triterpenes, flavonoids and polyphenols in both parts of the fruit (pulp and seeds). Assays carried out on extracts of pulp and seed powders reveals higher levels of total polyphenols and flavonoids in the pulp. The study of antioxidant activity has shown that hydro-ethanol extracts of pulp and seeds have a very interesting reducing activity, particularly in the pulp. However, we can see a weak antiradical activity of these extracts. The origin effect has a weak influence on the antiradical and reducing activity of the pulp and seed extracts.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;The biological activity of the harvested &lt;em&gt;Boscia senegalensis&lt;/em&gt; extracts highlighted in this study could justify the traditional uses of this plant in the treatment of several pathologies. This fruit should be consumed in order to prevent few dietary imbalances or valorized in order to develop new bioactive compounds.&lt;/p&gt;

It serves as a cofactor for several enzymes involved in energy metabolism. The laboratory test against thiamine deficiency can be done by measuring thiamine levels in the blood. The aim of this study was to identify the stability and the binding activity characters of TBP. The equilibrium dialysis technique was used to see the factors affecting the bond between TBP and thiamine. The MBTBP concentration of post-chromatographic affinity resulted from dilution of lyophilisate was stable for 30 days at -20°C and 3 days at 4°C. The optimal pH for binding MBTBP to thiamine was 7.5. Alkylation with iodoacetic acid decreased the binding capacity of TBP which suggested the presence of a–SH or imidazol group in its active site. The importance of disulfide bridge was proven by decreasing of Thiamine binding capacity of TBP after β-mercaptoethanol treatment. This binding activity was also affected by oxidizing agents, but it was less affected by calcium ions and heavy metals.&lt;/p&gt;

Its mainstay treatment is chemotherapy although they are largely toxic, causing severe adverse reactions including cardiotoxicity, nephrotoxicity and genotoxicity. Cardiotoxicity is unique to certain chemotherapeutic agents and occur via several mechanisms. It has been hypothesized that co-administration of natural products which may be cardioprotectant, together with chemotherapy can alleviate cardiotoxicity-induced by chemotherapy. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; This review aimed to provide a brief information about the protective effect of natural products against chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; To complete this review, relevant literatures were searched from several scientific databases including Google, Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science and Pubmed. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;In this paper, we have reviewed ten natural products (curcumin, mangiferin, naringenin, quercetin, 6-gingerol, lycopene, resveratrol, apigenin, proanthocyanidins and indole-3-carbinol), which have major influences in attenuating chemotherapy-drug induced cardiotoxicity. Apart from the cardioprotective effects, they tend to confer some synergistic effects with chemotherapeutic agents and therefore have the potential to be used as an adjunct. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Though a panel of natural products demonstrate protective effects against cardiotoxicity in cells and animal models, their therapeutic potentials for clinical needs further investigation.&lt;/p&gt;

In particular, algae have been considered as a potential source of new bioactive compounds. The antioxidant data of our previous study with six different algal methanolic extract reveals the presence of high antioxidant, total phenol content and total flavonoid content in &lt;em&gt;Spirogyra triplicata. &lt;/em&gt;Thus, we further focused on screening the anti-proliferative activity of six different green algae on five different cancer cell lines like MCF7, A549, HEPG2, REH, MOLT4.&lt;strong&gt; Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; To fulfill our aim we performed MTT assay for testing anti-proliferative activity and DAPI staining for observing nuclear morphology. We also looked into the metabolomic profiling of &lt;em&gt;Spirogyra triplicata&lt;/em&gt; by GC-MS chemometric study. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The result indicates that after 24 hours of treatment with methanolic extract of&lt;em&gt; Spirogyra triplicata &lt;/em&gt;A549 was the most sensitive cell line with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;value of 24.07 ± 1.09 μg/ml. Followed by&lt;em&gt; Rhizoclonium fontinale&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Hydrodictyon reticulatum&lt;/em&gt; with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;value of 25.97 ± 1.94 μg/ml and 32.50 ± 1.97 μg/ml respectively. The HEPG2 cell line was the second most sensitive cell line against&lt;em&gt; S. triplicata &lt;/em&gt;with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of 30.20 ± 1.45 μg/ml. The MOLT4 cell line was detected as most resistant cell line against the green algal extract in this study. Though the methanolic extracts of six green algae showed maximum to moderate anti-proliferative activity on different cancer cell line but no significantly affect on normal PBMC was observed. Nuclear fragmentation was observed in a dose dependent fashion by DAPI staining on A549 cells treated with methanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;Spirogyra triplicata. &lt;/em&gt;We further looked into the chemo profiling of&lt;em&gt; Spirogyra triplicata &lt;/em&gt;by GCMS analysis. The result of GC-MS clearly indicates presence of nineteen major components and twenty-three minor components which have more or less bioactivity and would help in therapeutics in future. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; In brief this study indicates for the first time that green algae&lt;em&gt; Spirogyra triplicata &lt;/em&gt;induces anti-proliferative activity specifically against A549 cell but not in normal PBMC. It can be concluded that&lt;em&gt; Spirogyra triplicata&lt;/em&gt; holds a great promise as a good repository of anti cancer compounds which may be used in future drug discovery.&lt;/p&gt;

The folkloric use of this plant as hypoglycemics is still un-revealed scientifically. So, the present study includes the &lt;em&gt;in-vivo &lt;/em&gt;evaluation of hypoglycemic activity with HPTLC fingerprinting, qualitative and quantitative phytochemical screening of the extracts of the plant. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Ethanolic extract of the plant (SOE) was subjected for phytochemical screening and HPTLC finger printing (using CAMAG LINOMAT 5 instrument). For the evaluation of hypoglycemic activity Streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats were treated with glibenclamide (0.5mg/kg body weight) and ethanolic extract (100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg body weight) of the plant. Acute and chronic studies were performed for the evaluation of blood glucose levels.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The presence of alkaloids, tannins, phenolics and flavonoids were confirmed in the preliminary phytochemical screening. Quantitative screening of total tannins (6.15±4.20), total flavonoids (25.13±3.21) and total phenolic compounds (48.09±2.58) were reported. HPTLC fingerprinting analysis of SOE affirmed the presence of quercetin. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The positive outcome was observed in the results of hypoglycemic activity, as all the treatments significantly decreased blood glucose level. During the study, SOE and glibenclamide maintained the body weight of the rats while diabetic control reduced the body weight by 11.33%. In support of its traditional use &lt;em&gt;Schleichera oleosa&lt;/em&gt; (Lour) Oken. was proved to be a potent antidiabetic herbal plant.&lt;/p&gt;

Liver contributes significantly by altering levels of hepatic glucose release, through controlling gluconeogenesis. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;To assess effect of Diallyldisulphide on hepatic gluconeogenesis by assessing gluconeogenic substrates and activity of regulatory enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase and to compare the Diallyldisulphide effect on gluconeogenesis with Metformin. &lt;strong&gt;Methodology:&lt;/strong&gt; Wistar albino rats were categorized into four groups; group Inormal control. Group II, III and IV rats were administered single intraperitoneal injection of alloxan monohydrate 150 mg/kg body weight. Rats were maintained on rat diet and water adlibitum for 30 days. On 31&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; day rats were sacrificed and procured liver tissues. Each liver tissue cut into small slices and group-III and group-IV liver tissues were separately incubated with Diallyldisulphide 4 mg/g liver tissues and Metformin 4 mg/g liver tissues for 60 minutes at 37&lt;sup&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:10.8333px&quot;&gt;o&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;C. The total amino acids and total keto acids levels were estimated after exposure. And post exposure effect on activity of glucose -6-phoshatase and transaminases were also estimated. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Alloxan induced diabetes resulted significant raise in total amino acids, total ketoacids, glucose -6-phosphatase and transaminases activities. Whereas incubation of liver tissues with diallyldisulphide significantly reduced total amino acids, total ketoacids, glucose-6-phosphatase, transaminases activities and ratio of total amino acids and ketoacids as compared to diabetic control rat liver tissues. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Study suggested that diallyldisulphide suppressed gluconeogenesis as liver glucose-6-phosphatase activity is significantly decreased and precursors for gluconeogenesis were significantly reduced. Suggesting Diallyldisulphide has role in gluconeogenesis and can hold potentials for glucose homeostasis.&lt;/p&gt;

Black soybean (BSB) is rich in antioxidant mainly from isoflavones, whereas the antioxidant of purple sweet potato (PSP) comes from high anthocyanin. The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of BSB, PSP, and its combination on malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) concentrations, insulin and insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) expression in T2DM rats. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;T2DM induced by high-calorie diet for five weeks and then injected with a low dose of streptozotocin (30 mg/kg BW) intraperitoneally. The DM rats then treated with black soybean (DM + BSB), purple sweet potato (DM + PSP) and the combination of BSB and PSP 1:3, 2:2, 3:1 respectively (DM + C1- 3). Treatments were given for thirty days. The effect of BSB, PSP and its combination evaluated by measuring SOD and MDA, necrosis in pancreas evaluated through hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and insulin and IRS-1 expression in pancreas through immunohistochemistry-fluorescence (IHC-F). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Our result indicated that there were no significant differences of BSB and the combination in decreasing MDA concentrations. The ratio of BSB and PSP combination of 2:2 increase SOD towards near normal, decrease necrosis, and improve insulin and IRS-1. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The combination of BSB and PSP had the potential to improve insulin sensitivity through the increase of SOD, reduce necrosis, and improve insulin and IRS-1 expression.&lt;/p&gt;

Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods including&lt;sup&gt; 1&lt;/sup&gt;HNMR, &lt;sup&gt;13&lt;/sup&gt;CNMR, EI/MS spectrometry and by comparing their data with those reported in the literature. The cytotoxicity was evaluated using MTT assay. The mode of action of the extract was predicted by using Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay Kit for Tubulin beta (TUBb). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Eight compounds for the first time from this plant were identified as Palmitic acid (1), Phytol (major) (2), Stigmast-4-en- 3-one (3), mixture of α-amyrin (4) and β–amyrin (5), 1,6,10,14,18,22-Tetracosahexaen-3- ol,2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyl (all-E) (6) and mixture of α– amyrin acetate (7) and β-amyrin acetate (8). The extract showed potent cytotoxic activity on MCF-7 breast carcinoma cell line as well as HCT-116 colon carcinoma cell line at different concentrations (100-6.25 ug/ml) with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; (21.8 ± 0.9) and (40.9 ± 1.3) respectively. Phytol showed potent cytotoxic activity on MCF-7 cell line at different concentrations (100-12.5 ug/ml) with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; (60 ± 2.4), while it had no cytotoxic effect on HCT-116 cell line. The extract showed significant TUBb polymerization inhibition activity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The extract of aerial parts of &lt;em&gt;Jacquemontia pentantha &lt;/em&gt;(Jacq.) and also phytol compound has cytotoxic activity due to the presence of phytochemicals such as sterols and terpenes.&lt;/p&gt;

Despite its wide usage, there is still need to continue scientifically evaluating its medicinal properties in order to avoid any adverse effects. Elucidating the detailed chemical composition of this plant is a significant step towards this evaluation.&lt;strong&gt; Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The aim of this study was to conduct LC MS analysis on the ethanolic extracts of fruits and leaves of &lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt; for detection of novel metabolites. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Leaves and fruits of &lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt; were collected from Eastern Uganda during the month January 2018. Extraction was conducted using the tissue homogenization method and the extracts were analyzed on an LC/SQ MS detection system. The results were obtained by analyzing the MS spectra using the retentions time and fragmentation patterns on the NIST Library.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study revealed that the fruits extracts contain 1,3-Dimethylthiourea and (4-chlorophenyl)-[4-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-[(Z)-3-(dimethylamino) prop-1-enyl]quinolin-6-yl]-(3-methylimidazol-4-yl)methanol, which are reported antioxidant and antineoplastic agents. The leaves contained 2,4,6-Tribromoaniline another antioxidant and antineoplastic agent, while compound (dichlorozirconium(2+);dimethyl-bis(2-methyl-4- phenylinden-1-id-1-yl)silane was found in both extracts of fruits and leaves. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The current study suggests that ethanolic extracts of fruits and leaves of&lt;em&gt; Annona muricata &lt;/em&gt;contain compounds which are potent antioxidant, antineoplastic and therapeutic agents for various conditions and paves the way for the development of several treatment regimens from these plant parts. Finally, the compounds reported in this study have been identified for the first time as being found in &lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The putative antioxidant activity of these extracts was then assessed by measuring &lt;em&gt;in-vitro &lt;/em&gt;radical-scavenging activity, ion-chelating potential and reducing potency. Potential cytotoxicity of the extract on Human lenticular epithelial B3 (HLE-B3) cells was also sought. Finally, possible prevention of cataract formation by the methanolic extract was gauged in selenite-exposed lenses obtained from Wistar rats. There were 3 groups (8 Lenses in each): Group I (Lenses incubated in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium [DMEM] alone); Group II (Lenses incubated in DMEM with sodium selenite [100 &lt;em&gt;μ&lt;/em&gt;M/ml]); Group III (Lenses incubated in DMEM with selenite [100 &lt;em&gt;μ&lt;/em&gt;M/ml] and the &lt;em&gt;O. basilicum&lt;/em&gt; methanolic extract (200 &lt;em&gt;μ&lt;/em&gt;g/ml DMEM). Gross lenticular morphology was assessed. Levels of lenticular malondialdehyde (MDA) and reduced glutathione (GSH) were also measured. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; A higher intensity of antioxidative activity was noted in the methanolic extract than in the aqueous extract. The methanolic extract exhibited negligible cytotoxicity. On morphological examination, marked opacification was seen in all 8 Group II lenses whereas there was no opacification in 7 of 8 Group III lenses. Near normal mean levels of reduced glutathione and malondialdehyde, were noted within Group III lenses. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The methanolic extract of the &lt;em&gt;O. basilicum&lt;/em&gt; leaf appears to prevent selenite-induced cataract formation&lt;em&gt; in-vitro.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The plant is included in the Official List of Brazilian Medicinal Plants of interest to the Brazilian Unified Health System. The study aimed to perfom microbiological studies with extracts of &lt;em&gt;Momordica charanthia&lt;/em&gt; L. including chemical characterization of the active extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The antimicrobial activity was evaluated with the hydroalcoholic and acetone extracts of&lt;em&gt; M. charantia&lt;/em&gt; leaves, fruits and seeds from northeastern Brazil using microdilution broth technique on the selected clinical bacterial and fungal strains. Extracts that presented antimicrobial were subjected to ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QToF-ESI-MS). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;antimicrobial assays demonstrated that the leaves extracts presented good antibacterial effect against four &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus &lt;/em&gt;strains, and a weak antifungal activity agaist &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans&lt;/em&gt;. Fourteen compounds were identified in the hydroalcoholic extract, while 12 were found in the acetone extract. The most important compounds were kaempferol, quercertin and triterpenoids like cucurbitacins. &lt;strong&gt;Conclussion: &lt;/strong&gt;The present study demonstrated the potential antibacterial activity of &lt;em&gt;M. charantia&lt;/em&gt; L. from northeastern part of Brazil, in addition to important phytochemical metabolites known to possess antibacterial activities, particularly against microrganisms of clinical importance. The UPLC phytochemical profile of the Brazilian variety is reported here for the first time. The phytochemical profile of the LHE and FAE demonstrated the presence of biologically and pharmacologically active compounds. There is lack of biological and pharmacological studies to support the medicinal uses of this important plant. The Brazilian variety of &lt;em&gt;M. Charantia &lt;/em&gt;could be a potential therapeutic agent in the treatment of infections.&lt;/p&gt;

The present study shows a detailed analysis of pharmacognostic evaluation of leaf powder and root that will be used for the purpose of identification, authentication, and consequent standardization. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Both the leaf and root were evaluated for their macroscopic and microscopic features. The physicochemical parameters of the leaf powder and its phytochemical screening were done based on its total phenols and flavonoïd content. Artemisinin content was also performed using weigh method after extraction. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Physicochemical evaluation yielded water, alcohol, acetone, methanol, chloroform, and petroleum ether soluble extractive values which are 2.25%, 1.25%, 4.22%, 8.12% and 3.77% (w/w), respectively. Fluorescence analysis imparted characteristic colors to the leaf powder when observed under visible, UV light 254 and 365 nm. Phytochemical screening of leaf powder showed the presence of alkaloïds, flavonoïd, and anthracene derivatives. Total phenols and flavonoïd content were 32.5 ± 0.67 mEq Gallic Acid/100 mg and 11.3 ± 1.52. mgEq Quercetin/100 mg, respectively. Artemisinin content value was 0.009% (w/w). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Various pharmacognostic parameters which were evaluated assisted in identification and standardization of &lt;em&gt;A. annua &lt;/em&gt;leaf in powder and crude form.&lt;/p&gt;

Studies have shown that leaves have a low antihyperglycemic effect. This study aims to improve the effect of leaves. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The hydroalcoholic extract of the leaves underwent a fractionation (separation in cold alcohol) and an OGTT (Oral Glucose tolerance test) on healthy mice, a phytochemical screening and antioxidant tests (&lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt;: DPPH and &lt;em&gt;ex vivo&lt;/em&gt;: AAPH) were performed on the extract and its fractions. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytochemical screening of the extract showed the presence of phenols, flavonoids and condensed tannins as well as the absence of condensed tannins, alkaloids, saponosides and anthracene derivatives. The extract also showed antioxidant activity. The supernatant fraction showed antihyperglycemic activity at 100 mg / kg in the 30th and 60th after glucose administration. Phytochemical screening of the supernatant revealed the presence of phenols, flavonoids and condensed tannins. The supernatant also showed more pronounced antioxidant activity than the total extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; In view of these results, the most active fraction obtained by the separation technique in cold alcohol is the supernatant.&lt;/p&gt;

Individually these three seeds are reported to contain rich nutrients along with antioxidants, probiotic soluble fibres and thus the mixture of three increased this potential. Individual seed and the mixture was evaluated by &lt;em&gt;In- vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;In-vivo&lt;/em&gt; methods for Nutraceutical Potential. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Proximate analysis of the mixture showed rich nutrient content and provided good combination of nutrients. Individual seed powder as well as mixture was tested for prebiotic potential using lactobacilli culture, which showed positive results. Each seed powder as well as mixture was tested for antioxidant potential using DPPH free radical scavenging assay, with promising results. It’s &lt;em&gt;in- vivo&lt;/em&gt; effect was studied using Wistar albino rat as animal model. This study involved haemogram and lipid profile determination which showed certain promising results. The powder mixture was developed into two products namely capsule and health drink powder formula.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The nutraceutical powder mixture of seeds of Cucumis melo, &lt;em&gt;Punica granatum&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Linum usitatissimum&lt;/em&gt; could be a promising product with antioxidant, prebiotic and nutraceutical potential for diabetic and cardiac patients where oxidative stress is a major underlying cause.&lt;/p&gt;

The present study standardization of Triphala Churna majorly focused on that area under WHO guidelines. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; This polyherbal Churna used treat the constipation and other gastric disorders. In this study a prepared Thriphala Churna was comparatively standardized with the reference obtained from market. For the standardization of the above formulations were done by evaluating the macroscopical, microscopical, powder flow properties, extractive values, Physicochemical characters, heavy metal content detection, qualitavte and quantitive determination of tannins and alkaloids, TLC finger print,&lt;em&gt; in-vitro a&lt;/em&gt;nti-oxidant activity and cytotoxic activity to assess the quality and safety and therapeutic activity of formulation. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The above parameters for the both formulation complies with the strands. The flow properties are poor. From the preliminary phytochemical test revealed the presence of various bioactive constituents. Majorly the concentration of tannins and flavonoids are high in water extract and also the water extract having the good anti-oxidant and &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; cytotoxic activity. Hence the Triphala extracts may be used for various Ayurvedic preparations to chronic diseases like cancer.&lt;/p&gt;

Mangosteen rind extract is known to have high contents of xanthone compounds which have antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities. This study was aiming to determine the contents of xanthone derivatives using Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and antioxidant activity of six different maturity levels of mangosteen rind extract using electron spin resonance (ESR). &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Mangosteen was classified based on the maturity level by its visual characteristic and divided into six criteria of maturity. The mangosteen rinds were extracted through maceration and freeze drying method. Qualitative analysis of xanthone was obtained using LC-MS/MS. Antioxidant activity was determined using ESR spectrometer. To evaluate antioxidant activity, using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was used as free radical scavenger method. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The LC-MS/MS analysis showed that the highest concentrations are filled by mangosteen rind with maturity level 6. Moreover, each maturity levels of mangosteen rind extract has different g value compared to DPPH free radical. Different g value indicated the different type of free radical and decreasing g value indicated the declining intensity of free radical. The higher decreasing of g value was mangosteen rind with maturity level 4, 5 and 6. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Mangosteen rind extract contains xanthone and its derivatives and ESR analysis showed that different maturity levels on mangosteen rind has different antioxidant activity as indicated by declining free radical intensity.&lt;/p&gt;

It has been traditionally used to treat infections and other Physiological disorders for several hundreds. We investigated the anti-leukemic potential of Andrographolide (AGP) isolated from the leaves of this plant against an array of cancer cells to investigate its most efficacies in a particular cancer type. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; AGP was isolated from &lt;em&gt;Andrographis paniculata&lt;/em&gt; leaves by using column chromatography. The structure was further determined by LC-MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. AGP was initially tested against four different cancer cell lines, namely NALM-6 (pre B-ALL), K562 (CML), A549 (lung carcinoma) and MCF-7 (breast carcinoma) using MTT assay at different time points and different concentrations. The effect of the isolated biomolecule was also investigated in inducing apoptosis through the study of cell cycle progression using flow cytometry by PI staining and nuclear fragmentation pattern by DAPI staining and fluorescence microscopy.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; the spectral analysis of the isolated bio-molecule assured that the compound was AGP. MTT assay data indicated that AGP was most potent to induce cytotoxicity in NALM-6 cells.

This study examines the anti-proliferative activity of &lt;em&gt;T. sericea&lt;/em&gt; leaf extracts against Caco2 and HeLa carcinoma cell proliferation. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Solvent extracts were prepared from &lt;em&gt;T. sericea&lt;/em&gt; leaves and their antioxidant capacities were determined by the DPPH free radical scavenging assay. Anti-proliferative activities against Caco2 and HeLa cancer cells were determined by an MTS based cell proliferation assay. Toxicity was determined using the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; nauplii bioassay. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The methanolic and aqueous &lt;em&gt;T. sericea&lt;/em&gt; leaf extracts displayed high antioxidant capacities (equivalent to 150 and 340 mg of ascorbic acid per gram of plant material extracted respectively). In contrast, the ethyl acetate, chloroform and hexane extracts had relatively low antioxidant contents (&amp;le;5 mg of ascorbic acid equivalents per gram of plant material extracted). The antioxidant contents of the &lt;em&gt;T. sericea&lt;/em&gt; leaf extracts correlated with the ability of the extracts to inhibit proliferation of Caco2 and HeLa cancer cell lines. The high antioxidant methanolic and aqueous extracts were potent inhibitors of cell proliferation, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values 120-1400 &amp;mu;g/mL. The aqueous &lt;em&gt;T. sericea&lt;/em&gt; leaf extract was particularly effective, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 528 and 120 &amp;mu;g/mL against Caco2 and HeLa cells respectively. The methanolic extract also displayed good, albeit substantially less potent, antiproliferative activity against HeLa cells, with an IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 1358 &amp;mu;g/mL. In contrast, the lower antioxidant content extracts generally did not inhibit cancer cell proliferation. Cell imaging studies detected morphological features consistent with apoptosis in Caco2 cells exposed to sub-lethal concentrations of the methanolic and aqueous T. sericea leaf extracts, indicating that these extracts are functioning by cytotoxic mechanisms. The aqueous &lt;em&gt;T. sericea&lt;/em&gt; leaf extract displayed low to moderate toxicity in the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay, with an LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of 737 &amp;mu;g/mL. All other extracts were nontoxic. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The antiproliferative activity and low toxicity of the &lt;em&gt;T. sericea &lt;/em&gt;methanolic and aqueous leaf extracts extracts against HeLa and Caco2 cancer cell lines indicates their potential in the treatment and prevention of some cancers.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">408</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BiYun Gu&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;, Joseph Shalom&lt;sup&gt;1,3&lt;/sup&gt;, Ian E.

Among the microorganisms presents in the oral microbiota, &lt;em&gt;Streptococcus mutans&lt;/em&gt; can form biofilm on the tooth surface in the presence of dietary carbohydrates. This study aimed to evaluate the bactericidal kinetics and antibiofilm efficacy of ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (compound 1) and ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-3&amp;beta;-ol (compound 2) obtained from &lt;em&gt;Viguiera arenaria &lt;/em&gt;against oral pathogens; this study also aimed to determine the effect of these compounds on the morphology and architecture of the &lt;em&gt;S. mutans&lt;/em&gt; biofilm by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The bactericidal kinetics revealed different results depending on the tested bacteria. Compound 1 eliminated the viable bacteria within 24 hs of incubation. In the antibiofilm assay, compound 1 displayed promising results against S. mitis (ATCC 49456 and clinical isolate) and &lt;em&gt;L. casei&lt;/em&gt; (clinical isolate), whereas compound 2 was not active at the evaluated concentrations. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Compound 1 is an important metabolite in the search for new antibacterial agents against cariogenic bacteria both in the sessile and planktonic modes.

However, data pertaining to its effects at CNS level is limited. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To analyze the anti-anxiety potential of ethanolic extracts of &lt;em&gt;Bombax ceiba&lt;/em&gt; leaves on rats using the elevated plus maze protocol. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Five groups containing six rats each were treated with respective drugs.Control rats were treated with 0.5ml of 10% ethanol i.p. (negative control). Single treatments of diazepam (2mg/kg i.p) were used as a positive control and varied levels of ethanolic extracts of &lt;em&gt;Bombax ceiba&lt;/em&gt; leaves (150 mg/kg, 250 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg, i.p.) were applied to other groups. The index of anxiety was measured by observing the entry and time duration in the open arm of the EPM. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Extract at 400 mg/kg significantly increased the time duration and number of entries into the open arm which was statistically significant (p value &amp;lt;0.05) when compared to the control group (ethanol). Diazepam showed the most significant results when compared to other groups (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.0005). Extracts at 150 mg/kg and 250 mg/kg demonstrated negligible results that were statistically insignificant. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results indicate the anti-anxiety potential of &lt;em&gt;Bombax ceiba&lt;/em&gt; leaves at higher concentration.

Seven (7) bacterial colonies were randomly chosen at the 10&lt;sup&gt;-6&lt;/sup&gt; dilution factor. Antibiotic sensitivity test using agar well method revealed that only one isolate out of 7 selected colonies can inhibit the growth of the test organisms. Specifically, the isolate (namely T4) supernatant inhibited &lt;em&gt;E. coli &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;B. subtilis&lt;/em&gt; but not &lt;em&gt;S. aureus&lt;/em&gt;. T4&amp;rsquo;s ability to inhibit &lt;em&gt;E. coli&lt;/em&gt; was comparable with that of Tetracycline (positive control). Surprisingly, its inhibition of &lt;em&gt;B. subtilis&lt;/em&gt; is significantly higher than that of Tetracycline. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis using NCBI Basic Local Alignment Search Tool revealed 99% similarity of the isolate (T4) with &lt;em&gt;Exiguobacterium acetylicum&lt;/em&gt;, a gram-positive, antibiotic-producing bacterium previously isolated from an apple orchard rhizosphere.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">198</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ashok Kumar Ranganathan&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Renato A Dela Pena Jr&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Marilyn T Malison&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Oscar V Punzalan Jr&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Christian R Pangilinan&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; and Daniel E Gracilla&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

After administration of the carcinogen, quercetin was administered. The whole stomach and a part of duodenum were sampled, cut open and tumors were recorded. The specimens were histopathologically investigated and the expression of surviving was examined with immunohistochemical analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results and Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The treatment with quercetin significantly increases body weight in the rats after N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine administration. Survivin expression in glandular stomachs of normal rats, of rats in adenocarcinomas and quercetin at dose dependent manner treated rats were 0%, 90%, 75%, 33.3-25%, respectively. Compared with the survivin expression in negative rats, the differences were significant. Compared with the survivin expression in normal rats, the differences were significant. Histological observations of stomach tissues too correlated with the biochemical observations. These findings indicated that the Quercetin treatment could stimulate immunity activity in rats with N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine induced gastric carcinoma and have pronounced effect on survivin which is an attractive target for gastric cancer therapy.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">215</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lubna Azmi &lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;, Ila Shukla&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Shyam Sundar Gupta&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Aniruddh Chaudhary&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Padam Kant&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Narayan Prasad Yadav&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Chandana Venkateswara Rao&lt;sup&gt;1* &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The calibration curves were linear in the range of 100-600 ng per spot for caffeic acid and quercetin. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; During the analysis methanolic fraction of &lt;em&gt;Bauhinia tomentosa&lt;/em&gt; L. floral buds showed the pres&amp;not;ence of caffeic acid (0.02%) and quercetin (0.018%). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The proposed method is simple, precise, specific, accurate, less time consuming and cost effective. The statistical analysis of data obtained proves that the method is reproducible and selective and can be used for routine analysis of reported phenolic compounds in crude drug and extracts. The simultaneous quan&amp;not;tification of these compounds has not yet been reported in floral buds of &lt;em&gt;Bauhinia tomentosa&lt;/em&gt; which may be utilized for the proper standardization of the plant.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">773</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Abhishek Gupta&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;, Harinath Dwivedi&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, AKS Rawat&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1*&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The highly valued part of the plant is the leaves which possess various biological activities. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study aimed to investigate the antidiabetic effect of &lt;em&gt;Murraya koenigii&lt;/em&gt; (MK) leaf extracts, of two different solvent ratios. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; 70% hydroalcoholic and alkaloidal extracts of MK leaves were prepared by cold maceration method. Preliminary phytochemical analysis was carried out for both the extracts. &lt;em&gt;In vitro&lt;/em&gt; anti diabetic activity was screened by inhibitory action on &amp;alpha; &amp;ndash; amylase, &amp;alpha; &amp;ndash; glucosidase enzymes. Further, the 70% hydroalcoholic and alkaloidal extracts were assessed for glucose uptake potential, anti - adipogenic property, as well as inhibitory activity on diabetes associated complications. HPTLC quantification of major phytoconstituent was carried out. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study showed presence of various phytoconstituents such as, polyphenols, alkaloids, tannins, reducing sugars etc. The 70% hydroalcoholic and alkaloidal extracts of MK leaves exhibited &amp;gt;90% inhibition against carbohydrate metabolising enzymes compared to aqueous and absolute alcohol extracts. Both the extracts showed enhanced glucose uptake in L6 myotubes attenuating the effect of Palmitate induced insulin resistance. Significant inhibition on adipogenesis was exerted by both 70% hydroalcoholic and alkaloidal extracts of MK leaves. Besides, marked inhibition of advanced glycation end products was exhibited by the extracts. HPTLC quantification analysis of the aforementioned extracts showed the presence of major phytoconstituent, Mahanine, in it. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results of the present study showed that MK possesses significant antidiabetic property and also exhibited considerable effect in preventing diabetes associated complications. The potent antidiabetic activity of MK could be attributed to the presence of Mahanine, the major active constituent, which is a carbazole alkaloid.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">633</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Parameswari Royapuram Parthasarathy&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Janani Murthy&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Dinesh Murugan Girija&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Srivani Telapolu&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt;, Chamundeeswari Duraipandian&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Thyagarajan Sadras Panchatcharam&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;* &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The objective of present study was to investigate the GC-MS analysis and antibacterial activity of &lt;em&gt;L. inermis&lt;/em&gt; leaves extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Crude methanol extract and its fractions were tested for the presence of active phytochemicals and GC-MS analysis of hexane; ethyl acetate and aqueous methanol fractions was performed. Antimicrobial activity against six bacterial strain&amp;rsquo;s &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtelis, Salmonella typhi, Klebsiella&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Pseudomonas aeruginosa&lt;/em&gt; was also tested. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytochemical screening of extract confirmed the presence of carbohydrates, glycosides, quinones, steroids and phenol. In GC-MS chromatograms, 56, 108 and 19 peaks were obtained and out of these, 13, 17 and 7 compounds were identified in hexane, ethyl acetate and aqueous methanol fractions, respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; For best of our knowledge in &lt;em&gt;L.&amp;nbsp;inermis&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract, Celidoniol and Vitamin E has not been reported earlier in hexane fractions. While 2, 3 dihydrobenzo furan, 1-H indole -1, 3 (2H)-dione, 1 (3H)-Isobenzofuranone, 1H Isoindole-1, 3 (2H) Dione, Napthelene, 2 ethoxy, 2 (4H) Benzofuranone, Vitamin E, Benzene, 1 isocyano 4 methyl are also identified for the first time in ethyl acetate fraction. Also, in aq. Methanol fraction 1(3H)-isobenzofuranone, Squalene and Vit E were not previously identified. Highest antibacterial activity was confirmed in crude methanol extract which might be due to all the antibacterial compounds present in its fractions. The present study helped in identifying phytoconstituents present in the extract and its fractions which are responsible for various biological and antibacterial activities.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">xx1101</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ritesh Kumar Sharma&lt;sup&gt;1,&lt;/sup&gt;*, Anjana Goel&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The effect of the bioactive metabolite produced (zone of inhibition) against the responses were found to be 17 mm for&lt;em&gt; S. flexneri,&lt;/em&gt; 17 mm for &lt;em&gt;S. marcescens&lt;/em&gt;, 16 mm for P. vulgaris, 17 mm for P. aeruginosa and 18 mm for E coli. The data obtained from experimental values are in close agreement with the predicted values of RSM. Model adequacy was evaluated using ANOVA variance where the quadratic effect of&lt;em&gt; p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.0001 which imply the significance of the model.

To overcome the resistance and other drawbacks of the current antimicrobial drugs and to obtain more efficacious drugs, an antimicrobial drug having a novel mode of action should be developed. The flavonoid compounds have demonstrated for their therapeutic potential as antimicrobial agents previously. &lt;strong&gt;Aim:&lt;/strong&gt; To evaluate the antifungal efficacy of plant derived compounds such as hesperetin (HSP) and silibinin (SBN) compounds &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this study, we evaluated the antifungal effect of two plant derived flavonoid compounds &lt;em&gt;i.e&lt;/em&gt;., SBN and HSP against &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Malassezia furfur, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium oxalicum&lt;/em&gt;. The disk diffusion test was performed to test the antifungal effect of HSP and SBN with three different concentrations &lt;em&gt;i.e.&lt;/em&gt;, 15, 20, 25 mg/ml of HSP and SBN. The antifungal efficacy was studied for 72 h. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Our results indicate that SBN has significant antifungal effect than that of HSP. The high sensitivity of these compounds was found against &lt;em&gt;C. albicans, C. tropicalis&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These drugs could be good candidate to combine with regular antimicrobial agents.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">789</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ramar Gowtham&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Fysal Yousuf MA&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Devaraj Ezhilarasan&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;*, Shanmugam Sambantham&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Balakrishnan Anandan&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The percentage activity was calculated with respect to solvent control. &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; 7 days of exposure to lutein showed a maximum inhibition of 89.27&amp;plusmn;0.24 % at 140&amp;mu;g/ml and Amino guanidine exhibited 90% of inhibition. The IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of Lutein for AGE inhibition was found to be 77.78&amp;mu;g/ml and for AG, 72.66&amp;mu;g/ml.&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The non-enzymatic adduct formation between the keto group of sugar and amino group of proteins is one of the molecular basis of diabetic complications in hyperglycaemic state. Inhibition of this process will be useful in the management of diabetic complications. Lutein showed dose dependent inhibitory effect on the protein glycation.Hence, it may be used for the management of diabetic complication.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">734</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Karan Rajpurohit Gayathri, Roy Anitha&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Thangavelu Lakshmi &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The concept of immunomodulation has been gaining much significance worldwide as people started realizing the indispensible role of the immune system in maintaining a disease-free state. Natural products have been considered a plentiful source in the search for new chemical entities that modulate the immune system with reduced adverse effects. Pharmacological evaluation of the crude ethanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;Boerhavia diffusa &lt;/em&gt;roots has shown to possess anti proliferative and immunomodulatory properties but not reported from &lt;em&gt;Boerhavia erecta&lt;/em&gt;.

Solms. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Antibacterial assay was done by agar well diffusion method. Pharmacognostic studies like morpho-anatomical and physicochemical analyses were carried out for organoleptic, microscopic and macroscopic evaluations of living aerial parts, and powder microscopy, fluorescence, proximate and elemental analysis of the dried powder sample. Elements and heavy metals contents were determined by carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulphur / oxygen (CHNS/O) analyzer and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;M. hastata &lt;/em&gt;(L.) Solms aerial parts showed antibacterial activity against gastrointestinal and topical pathogens. It exhibited an amphistomatic and hydromorphic anatomical characters. The distinguishing features were the presence of stomata in upper and lower epidermis, broad air chambers, cuticle, collateral vascular bundles, sclereidal fibres, pitted tracheids, pitted vessels, calcium oxalate crystals and annular vessels in leaf. The powder sample contained very less amount of acid insoluble ash than water soluble ash and complete absence of foreign organic matter. Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and sulfur (CHNS) ratio was 33:6:5:1 and lead content was lesser than the recommended upper limit though the arsenic content was higher than the permissible upper limit. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Though the plant has traditionally been used as a potent Ethnomedicinal herb to cure boils, gastritis, hepatopathy and as laxative, but no such evaluation of pharmacognostic identity and quality parameters have been done so far.

Medicinal plants are now considered as an alternative treatment because of their secure choice in several diseases. Among them, &lt;em&gt;Nigella sativa&lt;/em&gt; is a promising traditional herb having rich medical background. The aim of the study is to perform phytochemical analysis of &lt;em&gt;Nigella sativa&lt;/em&gt; L. Utilizing Gas chromatographic&amp;ndash;mass spectrometric (GC/MS) exploring its antioxidant and antibacterial activity against multidrug resistant (MDR) gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Total phenolic, tannin, and flavonoid content of &lt;em&gt;N. sativa&lt;/em&gt; seed extracts and its commercially available oil were determined. Their radical scavenging activity using DPPH was also tested. The antibacterial activity of &lt;em&gt;N. sativa&lt;/em&gt; seed extracts and its oil against MDR gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains was studied using disc diffusion test and the biofilm formation assay. GC-MS studies were also performed. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Among the different preparations used,&lt;em&gt; N. sativa&lt;/em&gt; oil showed the highest antioxidant and antibacterial activity against highly resistant gram-positive bacteria with the greatest suppression of biofilm formation, which was attributed to its high bioactive contents. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study indicates that &lt;em&gt;N. sativa&lt;/em&gt; extracts and its oils can be used as natural antibacterial agents to treat infections caused by multidrug resistant bacteria.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">99</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fatima A.

Experimental results reveal that 2, 4-D either alone or in combination with kinetin supplemented in MS medium showed significant initiation of callus from leaf explants than stem. Growth hormones, pH, light, and carbon source influence anthocyanin synthesis. Maximum callus induction was noticed with 2.5 mg/L N6-benzyladenine (BA) + 2 mg/L 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) (98.9%). Fresh and dry weight of the calli were i.e., 1.9 &amp;plusmn; 0.04 and 0.45 &amp;plusmn; 0. 03 g respectively. Optimal response was seen with light on MS medium contain 4% glucose + 2.5 mg/L BA and 2 mg/L 2, 4-D at pH 3.5 yielded 2.8 mg /g of anthocyanins. Suspension culture medium fortified with 2, 4-D (2.5 mg/L) + BA (2 mg/L) at pH 5.0 induced anthocyanin production at pH 4.4 &amp;ndash; 4.6. HCl-ethanol extraction for 90 min yielded the maximum anthocyanin content. Fractionation of anthocyanin using HPLC coupled with mass spectrometry revealed 07 fractions such as acylated cyanidins, two peonidins, cyanidin 3-p-coumaroyl and feruloyl diglucoside-5-glucosides. In the search of novel therapeutic drugs against cancer, cytotoxicity effect of &lt;em&gt;B.retusa&lt;/em&gt; anthocyanin extracts on human oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC4, SCC9 and SCC25) cells using cell adhesion and cell viability assay was carried. The morphological alterations in SCCs cells after treatment with &lt;em&gt;B.retusa&lt;/em&gt; anthocyanin includes nuclear condensation, fragmentation and apoptotic cells as revealed by Hoechst stain. Flow cytometry showed arresting of SCC25 cells mostly in the G0/G1 and S-G2/M stages with a concomitant up regulation of sub-G1 fraction, indicating cell death by apoptosis. Apoptosis was further substantiated by the activation of caspase-3 expression in the SCC25 cells treated with &lt;em&gt;B.retusa&lt;/em&gt; anthocyanin. Thus, it is possible to suggest that &lt;em&gt;B.retusa&lt;/em&gt; anthocyanin cause apoptosis of SCCs and warrant further investigation using animal models.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">559</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aswathy Jayasree Madanakumar&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Bosco Lawarence&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Manoj GS&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;,Murugan Kumaraswamy&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Based on it, this research aimed to determine the repairing effects of aqueous extract of KP on lupus nephritis mice and identified its active compound. The KP extract profile was determined using UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS instrument. We examined six mice groups consisting of three curative treatment groups, one standard group receiving prednisone, one preventive group receiving KP extract, and one healthy (healthy and untreated) group. At the end of the experiment, we measured the proteinuria and renal histology parameters. To recognize the active compound in the KP profile, we performed &lt;em&gt;in silico&lt;/em&gt; assays for the flavonoid compounds to bind to the glucocorticoid receptor. We played &lt;em&gt;in silico&lt;/em&gt; tests for the flavonoid compounds to identify the active compound in the KP profile. We found the repairing effect of KP was detected in the kidney, demonstrated by its low proteinuria level and its better tissue structure. In the curative group, the urine protein level and its glomerular inflammation decreased. In the preventive group, the aqueous extract of KP could prevent lupus nephritis manifestations in the kidney. Bryophyllin A is the most active compound of the KP. However, further research is needed to understand the mechanism involved. We conclude, the aqueous extract, especially its bryophyllin A, have beneficial effects in repairing the function and tissue structure of lupus manifestations in mice kidney.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">548</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Niken Indriyanti&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Afrillia Nuryanti Garmana&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Finna Setiawan&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Ursolic acid was also isolated from &lt;em&gt;Eucalyptus globulus&lt;/em&gt; leaf. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Two triterpenic acids (ursolic and oleanolic acid) were extracted using methanol and dichloromethane as the extraction solvents. Study for total triterpenoids present in &lt;em&gt;Eucalyptus globulus&lt;/em&gt; leaves was carried out which shows considerable amount of terpenoids present. Because of the similarity of chemical structure, the prechromatographic derivatization was necessary to separate these triterpenic acids. The samples were treated by 1% iodine solution in chloroform directly on the chromatographic plate and developed with the mobile phase consisting of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and acetone (7.8:2.2:0.1, v/v/v). After drying, the plates were sprayed with 10% (v/v) ethanol solution of sulfuric acid and heated to 120 &amp;deg;C for 3 min. Quantification was performed in absorbance/transmittance mode at a wavelength of 345 nm. The developed HPTLC method was validated for linearity, precision and accuracy. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Correlation coefficient (&lt;em&gt;r&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/em&gt; &amp;gt; 0.99), R.S.D. values, detection limits as well as recovery values were found to be satisfactory. Ursolic acid was isolated from &lt;em&gt;E. globulus&lt;/em&gt; leaves. The identification of isolated ursolic acid was done on the basis of Rf value (0.26) for HPTLC and peak interpretation for FT-IR. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The method has been successfully applied in the analysis of both triterpenic acids in medicinal herbs.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">179</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Arti Gupta&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;*, Pooja Maheta&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Renu Chauhan&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Sonia Pandey&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Jitendra Singh Yadav&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Shailesh Shah&lt;sup&gt;1 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

In the present work, we have assessed the effect of withaferin A on somatic and affective symptoms of ethanol withdrawal syndrome in rats. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Animals had given free access to ethanol uninterrupted for 21 days through liquid diet. Withaferin A (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg) was injected (ip) either during the development of ethanol dependence phase (days 15 &amp;ndash; 21 or 30 min before ethanol withdrawal assessment. Withdrawal signs characterized by changes in somatic signs were measured in the open field followed by evaluation of anxiety parameters, locomotion, and depressive behavior. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Withaferin A treatment 30 min before 24 h postethanol withdrawal assessment did not alter the scores of somatic behavioral signs in ethanol abstinence animals. However, withaferin A (10 and 20 mg/kg, ip) from day 15-21 prevented the ethanol withdrawal-induced elevated scores of somatic behaviors, hyperlocomotion, depressive behavior, and anxiety. Withaferin A treatment did not influence the blood ethanol levels in dependent and withdrawn animals. However, withaferin A administration attenuated the elevated plasma corticosterone and ACTH levels in ethanol-withdrawn rats, suggesting withaferin A induced anti-stress effect and stabilization of HPA axis activity could have facilitated the inhibitory effect of withaferin A on ethanol withdrawal syndrome. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The finding supports further investigation of withaferin A and other bioactive components of WS in alcohol addiction.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1190</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nandkishor Ramdas Kotagale, Ankit Kedia, Rupali Gite, Shubham Nilkanth Rahmatkar, Dinesh Yugraj Gawande, Milind Janraoji Umekar, Brijesh Gulabrao Taksande&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value was 87.60&amp;plusmn;1.67 &amp;mu;g/mL for HDF and 85.50&amp;plusmn;1.65 &amp;mu;g/mL after 24 h treatment. &lt;em&gt;In vitro&lt;/em&gt; scratch wound healing studies showed wound closure of 50.38%&amp;plusmn;1.39 and 69.81%&amp;plusmn;1.89 at a concentration of 25 &amp;mu;g/mL after 24 h and 48 h, respectively. The extract was tested for anti-inflammatory activity by determination of inhibitory activity on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 cell lines. We found that &lt;em&gt;A. bracteolata&lt;/em&gt; has a strong inhibitory effect on the production of NO and tumor necrosis factor-&amp;alpha; (TNF-&amp;alpha;). The plant extract of &lt;em&gt;A. bracteolata&lt;/em&gt; inhibited inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene expression by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). To explore the mechanism responsible for the inhibition of iNOS, gene expression was analyzed by Real- Time PCR. &lt;em&gt;A. bracteolata&lt;/em&gt; showed a decrease in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine mRNA in a concentration-dependent manner. Treatment with the plant extract resulted in enhanced expression of Collagen 1 a (I) and Collagen IV in HDFs by regulating the mRNA levels of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and Matrix metalloproteinase-2. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Thus, the present investigation scientifically validates the use of &lt;em&gt;A. bracteolata &lt;/em&gt;in wound healing.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6s</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">s129</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dinesh Murugan Girija&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Mangathayaru Kalachaveedu&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;*, Rajasekaran Subbarayan&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Preethi Jenifer&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Suresh Ranga Rao&lt;sup&gt;4 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Brenan var. cebil (Griseb) is a plant widely used for medicinal proposes in Brazilian Northeast. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study aimed to analyze the influence of rainfall indexes (RI) in antimicrobial activity and phytochemical constituents of extracts from leaves and fruits of&lt;em&gt; A. colubrina&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Samples were collected in Catimbau National Park (Bu&amp;iacute;que, Pernambuco, Brazil) at September 2010 (RI: 75 mm) and January (RI: 65 mm), April (RI: 162 mm) and June 2011 (RI: 73 mm). The extracts were prepared by Soxhlet extraction using cyclohexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanol. The antimicrobial activity was determined by MIC and MBC values. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All extracts showed antimicrobial activity, but ethyl acetate extracts (from all periods) were more active. Strong correlations were found between the RI and the average MIC of MLE (&amp;rho;: -0.99), EALE (&amp;rho;: -0.81), CHFE (&amp;rho;: -0.81), EAFE (&amp;rho;: -0.80); while moderate and weak correlations were found for other extracts. Through a HPLC analysis was possible to reveal that the samples collected from dry periods had more chemical diversity (as they presented more peaks). Gallic acid and quercetin (and derivative compounds) were identified. The levels of quercetin were enhanced in extracts from dry months. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Our results showed that the rainfall has a positive effect on the antimicrobial activity of leaves and fruits of A. &lt;em&gt;colubrina&lt;/em&gt;, however these extracts showed more chemical diversity during dry months.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">435</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Daniel Rodrigo Cavalcante de Ara&amp;uacute;jo&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Lu&amp;iacute;s Cl&amp;aacute;udio Nascimento da Silva&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Wolfgang Harand&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, J&amp;uacute;lia Morais Fernandes&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;, Thaciane da Cunha Soares&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;, Silvana Maria Zucolotto Langassner&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;, Raquel Brandt Giordani&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;, Rafael Matos Ximenes&lt;sup&gt;5&lt;/sup&gt;, Alexandre Gomes da Silva&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, M&amp;aacute;rcia Vanusa da Silva&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Maria Tereza dos Santos Correia&lt;sup&gt;1* &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Optimization was carried out one factor at a time (O-F-A-T) for the production of the L - asparaginase. RSM was pledged to optimize the L - asparaginase production by &lt;em&gt;S.labedae&lt;/em&gt; VSM-6. Central composite design was applied to study the influence of the variables and their interactive effects on the production of L - asparaginase. Unstructured Kinetic modelling for L - asparaginase production was adopted using Leudeking-Piret (LILP) and Logistic Incorporated Modified Leudeking-Piret (LIMLP) models. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Optimization using One-Factor-At-A-time registered a turnout of 8.92 IU/ml of L - asparaginase production. But results obtained from the statistical design are in agreement with the experimental results. The model followed the second order polynomial equation and the model adequacy was determined by the P value (&amp;lt;0.0001), Coefficient determination (R2) with a value of 0.9942 and the adjusted R2 = 0.9087 which determines that the model was significant. The experimental values are in compliance with the model anticipated values and catalogued an escalation in yield of L - asparaginase (10.17 IU/ml) by RSM. Unstructured Kinetic modelling for L - asparaginase production adopting Leudeking-Piret (LILP) and Logistic Incorporated Modified Leudeking-Piret (LIMLP) models showed L - asparaginase production of (10.17 IU/ml), closer to model anticipated value (10.23 IU/ml) so unstructured models provided a better approximation for L - asparaginase production by &lt;em&gt;S.labedae &lt;/em&gt;VSM-6. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; From our study we have reported for the first time the production of L - asparaginase from &lt;em&gt;S.labedae&lt;/em&gt; VSM-6 using central composite design and kinetic modelling.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">932</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ushakiranamayi Mangamuri&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Muvva Vijayalakshmi&lt;sup&gt;*1&lt;/sup&gt;, Venkat Siva Rama Krishna Ganduri&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Satish Babu Rajulapati&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Sudhakar Poda&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Infections result in exotoxin production, tissue necrosis and unless promptly treated, often result in death. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Tasmannia lanceolata&lt;/em&gt; extracts were investigated for &lt;em&gt;C. perfringens &lt;/em&gt;growth inhibitory activity by disc diffusion analysis and MIC determination. Toxicity was evaluated by Artemia nauplii bioassay and the most potent extracts were phytochemically evaluated by GC-MS headspace analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata&lt;/em&gt; berry and leaf extracts displayed potent&lt;em&gt; C. perfringens&lt;/em&gt; growth inhibition. The berry extracts were more potent growth inhibitors than the corresponding leaf extracts, although the leaf extracts were also potent growth inhibitors. The berry aqueous, methanolic and ethyl acetate extracts were particularly potent growth inhibitors, with MIC values of 654, 65 and 329 &amp;mu;g/mL respectively. &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata &lt;/em&gt;leaf also displayed good efficacy, with an MIC of 839, 1255 and 625 &amp;mu;g/mL for the aqueous, methanolic and ethyl acetate extracts respectively. All extracts were nontoxic in the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay, with LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values substantially &amp;gt; 1000 &amp;mu;g/mL. Non-biased GC-MS analysis of the aqueous, methanolic and ethyl acetate berry extracts revealed the presence of high relative levels of a diversity of terpenoids. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The lack of toxicity of the T. lanceolata extracts and their potent growth inhibitory bioactivity against &lt;em&gt;C. perfringens&lt;/em&gt; indicates their potential as medicinal agents in the treatment and prevention of clostridial myonecrosis and enteritis necroticans. GC-MS metabolomic profiling studies indicate that these extracts contained a diversity of terpenoids, with monoterpenoids being particularly abundant.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">626</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mitchell Henry Wright,&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt; Cameron Jay Lee,&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; Megan Sarah Jean Arnold,&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; Joseph Shalom,&lt;sup&gt;2,4&lt;/sup&gt; Alan White,&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; Anthony Carlson Greene,&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; Ian Edwin Cock &lt;sup&gt;2,4 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The fruit has long been used by the first Australians as a nutritional food and as a medicine and recent studies have reported its potent growth inhibitory activity against a broad panel of bacteria. Despite this, &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana&lt;/em&gt; extracts are yet to be tested for the ability to inhibit the growth of &lt;em&gt;Bacillus anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Solvent extracts were prepared using both the fruit and leaf of Kakadu plum. The ability to inhibit the growth of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt; was investigated using a disc diffusion assay. Their MIC values were determined to quantify and compare their efficacies. Toxicity was determined using the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; nauplii bioassay. The most potent extracts were investigated using non-targeted GC-MS head space analysis (with screening against a compound database) for the identification and characterisation of individual components in the crude plant extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Solvent extractions of &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana&lt;/em&gt; fruit and leaf displayed good growth inhibitory activity in the disc diffusion assay against &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. Fruit ethyl acetate and methanolic leaf extracts were particularly potent growth inhibitors, with MIC values of 451 and 377&amp;mu;g/mL respectively. The fruit methanolic and chloroform extracts, as well as the aqueous leaf extracts also were good inhibitors of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt; growth, albeit with lower efficacy (MIC values of 1800 and 1414 &amp;mu;g/mL respectively).The aqueous fruit extract and leaf chloroform extracts had only low inhibitory activity. All other extracts were completely devoid of growth inhibitory activity. Furthermore, all of the extracts with growth inhibitory activity were nontoxic in the &lt;em&gt;Artemia fransiscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay, with LC50 values &amp;gt;1000 &amp;mu;g/mL. Non-biased GC-MS phytochemical analysis of the most active extracts (fruit ethyl acetate and methanolic leaf) putatively identified and highlighted several compounds that may contribute to the ability of these extracts to inhibit the growth of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;The low toxicity of the &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana&lt;/em&gt; fruit ethyl acetate and methanolic leaf extracts, as well as their potent growth inhibitory bioactivity against &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;, indicates their potential as medicinal agents in the treatment and prevention of anthrax.&lt;/p&gt;

More recently &lt;em&gt;Nigella sativa&lt;/em&gt; is also been used as anti cancer drug and protective agent against gamma radiation induced adverse effects in cell lines. &lt;em&gt;Azadirachta indica&lt;/em&gt; commonly called as neem, is a tree belonging to mahogany family meliaceae. &lt;em&gt;Azadirachta indica&lt;/em&gt; is also a traditional medicinal plant that used from a very long time in Indian ayurvedic and it is also been reported to have many beneficial effects including but not limited to anti-cancer and anti-diabetic effects. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; Find the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of &lt;em&gt;Nigella sativa&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Azadirachta indica&lt;/em&gt; ethanolic extracts in MDA-MB-231, HCT 116 and SHSY5Y cell lines. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this study we selected two cancerous cell lines (MDA-MB-231, HCT 116) and one neuronal cell line (SHSY5Y) and studied the effect of the two plant extracts namely &lt;em&gt;Nigella sativa&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Azadirachta indica&lt;/em&gt; on the cell metabolic activity. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; This study revealed that cancerous cell lines are more prone to the plant extracts than the neuronal cell lines. These results suggest positive clues on how such medicinal plant extracts act against cancerous cells alone while affecting the normal cells to a limited extent. However, further studies are required to find if this effect is due to cytotoxicity, cytostaticity, or anti-adhesive property.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">192</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sayani Banerjee&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Shefali Pandey&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Purbasha Mukherjee&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Afia Sayeed&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Apoorva Vasant Pandurangi&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Shinomol George&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Sahabudeen Sheik Mohideen&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;* &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Over the generations, this cosmopolitan macrofungus has become an integral part of tribal cuisines particularly for its taste. Besides, it has equal importance in folk medicine being widely used for treatment of pyretic diseases, coughs, gastric cancer and rheumatism. Thus, the species is considered as a natural reservoir of both nourishment as well as drug therapy and consequently it has become increasingly popular in scientific world. Nutritional sciences recently have witnessed it as a sustainable food supply to growing population due to enrichment of carbohydrate (trehalose&amp;gt; mannitol&amp;gt; fructose), protein (histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, threonine), minerals (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, iron, zinc, manganese, copper), vitamins (B, D, E), polyunsaturated fatty acids (linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid) and fibre. Conversely, the mushroom has also been regarded as an abundant source of chemical compounds including phenolics, triterpenes, polysaccharides with wide range of biological activities such as antiinflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antihyperglycemic, antitumor and immunomodulation effects. Therefore, a complete summary of the research progress on this fungus is necessary for further studies and commercial exploitation. In this context, the present review attempts to congregate current knowledge on nutritional value, myco-chemistry and therapeutic potential of this culturally important species.

Traditional medicines offer potent pharmacological activity with minimal side effects compared to synthetic drugs to treat such chronic disorders. There is no renowned remedy for arrest or rescuing infection or inflammation-induced brain damage. The present study was aimed to evaluate the neuroprotective effect of ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;Pedalium murex&lt;/em&gt; Linn. (EEPM) leaves against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Neurodegeneration was induced in rats with a single intraperitoneal injection of LPS (1 mg/kg). The induced endotoxemia constantly linked with battery of behavioural tests viz., choice reaction time task (CRT), 8-arm radial maze (RAM) and water maze test (WMT). At the end of the study, rats were sacrificed, brain hippocampal region was removed and biochemical parameters were measured. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In WMT swimming length (cm) was increased in LPS-treated rats when compared to control animals, the swimming length (EEPM; 400 mg/kg) was found to be significant; in RAM, different doses of EEPM at 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg decreased the number of errors in entry 4.00&amp;plusmn;0.36, 4.16&amp;plusmn;0.16and 3.33&amp;plusmn;2.79 respectively when compared with control animals (2.66&amp;plusmn; 0.21). EEPM at 400 mg/kg showed significant activity, in CRT apparatus increased incorrect lever pressing was observed in LPS-treated rats when compared to control animals. Incorrect lever pressing was minimized by EEPM at 400 mg/kg (43.5&amp;plusmn;2.40). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Our results showed that EEPM is a hopeful aspirant for hindrance of infection and inflammation induced brain damage by LPS.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">957</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Swaminathan Gomathi&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Rajagopal Shanmuga Sundaram&lt;sup&gt;2*&lt;/sup&gt;, Vellaichamy Muthupandi Annapandian&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Manickam Vijayabaskaran&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Ionic liquid based microwave assisted extraction (IL-MAE) has the potential to yield maximum analytes from the crude drugs in shorter time period with less solvent consumption and greater efficiency. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study aimed to develop new protocol of Ionic Liquids based Microwave-assisted Extraction (ILs-MAE) of glycyrrhetinic acid from licorice; optimization of the protocol through RSM and comparison of IL-MAE with conventional extraction techniques like maceration and soxhlation by HPTLC. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A novel ionic liquid-based microwave assisted extraction (IL-MAE) method was carried out for glycyrrhitinic acid from &lt;em&gt;Glycyrrhiza glabra &lt;/em&gt;using ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium chloride ([bmim]Cl) and optimized by response surface methodology. The variable microwaveassisted extraction parameters selected were concentration of [bmim]Cl, extraction time and microwave power while solid-liquid ratio and extraction temperature were kept constant. Response surface methodology was applied for developing, improving and optimizing the whole process and comparison of IL-MAE with maceration and soxhlation by HPTLC. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The yield of glycyrrhitinic acid was found to be 0.48 % w/w in maceration in 7 days, 0.76 % in soxhlation in 3 h and 2.54 % w/w in IL-MAE in 4 min. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; IL- MAE of glycyrrhitinic acid from &lt;em&gt;Glycyrrhiza glabra&lt;/em&gt; was proved to be better in respect of extraction efficiency, time and quantity of solvent used.

Flavonoid is a phenolic compound which is widely distributed in the plants and responsible for many biological activities. Preliminary phytochemical analysis gives a broad idea to the researchers for their further research. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this present study, we did a preliminary phytochemical screening, quantitative estimation of total flavonoids and fingerprinting profile of flavonoids compounds using five different solvent extracts obtained from leaves of &lt;em&gt;L. aspera.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Preliminary phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of flavonoid compounds in &lt;em&gt;L. aspera&lt;/em&gt;. Higher concentration of total flavonoid compounds was noted in ethanol extract compared to petroleum ether, chloroform, isopropyl alcohol and ethyl acetate extracts. A densitometric high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) study showed more number of flavonoid compounds are present in ethanol extract compared to other solvents. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Results of this study revealed, &lt;em&gt;L. aspera&lt;/em&gt; leaf is a rich source of flavonoid content and it can be used to alleviate many chronic illness and various diseases. This study results warrants for further isolation, identification and characterization of active principle which is responsible for the biological activity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">942</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vellaichamy Muthupandi Annapandian&lt;sup&gt;1,2*&lt;/sup&gt;, Rajagopal Shanmuga Sundaram&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Swaminathan Gomathi&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

This study aims to scrutinize the ethanol concentration in traditional herbal cough syrups available over-the-counter (OTC) in Malaysia. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Enzymatic analysis was adopted to estimate the alcohol contents of five selected syrups. The principle reaction involved ethanol oxidation by nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD) in the presence of the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), forming acetaldehyde, reduced NAD (NADH) and a proton. The ethanol concentration of each syrup was quantitatively determined by detecting NADH using UV spectrophotometry at detection wavelength of 340 nm. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The ethanol percentage by volume (% v/v) in the tested syrups ranges from 0.102% to 2.576%. All five syrups studied comply with the FDA requirement for drugs for adults and children &amp;gt;6 years since they do not contain more than 5% ethanol. However, three syrups do not fulfil the requirement for use in children &amp;lt;6 years as they contain higher than 0.5% ethanol, yet they are inappropriately indicated on their packaging for use in children &amp;gt;3 years. In terms of safety, all studied syrups fulfil European Medicine Agency&amp;rsquo;s (EMA) recommendation as they will not induce a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) higher than 0.125g/L after a single dose. Nevertheless, none of these syrups comply with Malaysian Drug Registration Guidance on labelling requirements as they do not disclose their alcohol contents on the packaging. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; More rigorous regulation on alcohol content in herbal preparations, and disclosure of alcohol content in product packagings should be enforced.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">821</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ming Shin Neo&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Shraddha Manish Gupta&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;,&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Tahir Mehmood Khan&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Manish Gupta&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Plant belongs to genus &lt;em&gt;Cordia&lt;/em&gt; and family Boraginaceae. Commonly it is known as Clammy Cherry and in Hindi Lasora. Earlier very few researches were carried out to explore its medicinal importance as compared with other &lt;em&gt;Cordia&lt;/em&gt; species. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To determine maximum safe dose and explore analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activities of &lt;em&gt;Cordia&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;obliqua&lt;/em&gt; leaf methanol extract. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; As per our previous study report, the leaf methanol extract is rich in phyto-constituents and has good antioxidant effect; so only methanol extract was studied here. The maximum safe dose of methanol extract was found by acute oral toxicity study according to OECD guidelines 423. For analgesic effect, hot plate and tail flick method, for anti-inflammatory, Carageenan induced rat paw edema and for antipyretic study, yeast induced pyrexia method were used. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract dose up to 2000mg/Kg was found safe with no any side effects. Three dose levels were tested for all activities. The medium (250 mg/Kg) and high (500 mg/Kg) dose of methanol extract was found effective in all activities when compared with standard. The result for antipyretic activity was found better than other activities. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It can be concluded that &lt;em&gt;Cordia obliqua&lt;/em&gt; leaf is safe and effective drug for relief of pain, fever and inflammation.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">856</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Richa Gupta&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Ghanshyam Das Gupta&lt;sup&gt;2*&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Paw volume was measured using a digital plethysmometer. Vehicle or test drugs were given to rats 30 min before carrageenan administration. Baseline paw volume reading (V&lt;sub&gt;0&lt;/sub&gt;) was noted just prior to administration of 0.1 ml of 1% carrageenan to right hind paw of the rat. Test paw volume readings (V&lt;sub&gt;t&lt;/sub&gt;) were measured at 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 and 360 min, after carrageenan injection. Oedema expressed as increased paw volume (v&lt;sub&gt;t&lt;/sub&gt;-v&lt;sub&gt;0&lt;/sub&gt;) was noted and percentage inhibition of oedema was calculated for all treatment groups. &lt;strong&gt;Statistical analysis&lt;/strong&gt;: Difference between groups were analyzed with ANOVA followed by Tukey test. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All treatment groups demonstrated significant (p&amp;lt;0.05) anti-inflammatory activity (oedema suppression) compared to normal control&lt;strong&gt;. &lt;/strong&gt;Anti-inflammatory activity of BCM 95 treated groups were comparable to standard control group except at certain time points, whereas the same activity at all-time points with Curcuminoid 95% treated groups were significantly less than standard control group. Percentage inhibition of paw oedema was maximum with standard control group followed by BCM 95 treated groups followed by Curcuminoid 95% treated groups. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; BCM 95 treated groups showed significant anti-inflammatory activity compared to Curcuminoid 95% treated groups.&lt;/p&gt;

Hook. f. ex Benth. A cost effective and eco friendly technique for green synthesis of SNPs from 1mM AgNO&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt; solution through the root extract was carried out. The biosynthesized SNPs were characterized using UV spectrophotometry, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), X-ray Diffraction analysis (XRD), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectrometry. DPPH assay was done to determine the antioxidant activity and for &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; hypoglycemic activity glucose uptake by yeast cells, alpha amylase inhibition assay, adsorption capacity and glucose diffusion assay was performed. The SNPs of ethanolic root extract were found to be spherical in shape and up to 32.75 nm average in size. They showed alpha amylase inhibitory activity of 83.60% at 500 &lt;em&gt;&amp;mu;&lt;/em&gt;g/ml. The glucose uptake by yeast cells was found to increase with an increase in concentration. The maximum glucose uptake was found to be 69.51% at 10mM concentration. The molar concentration of glucose was directly proportional to the glucose binding capacity of extracts.The rate of glucose diffusion across the membrane was found to increase from 30 to 180 minutes. The DPPH scavenging activity was found to be potent (74.07%) at 500 &lt;em&gt;&amp;mu;&lt;/em&gt;g/ml. The hypoglycemic effect exhibited by the SNPs was revealed by simple in vitro model of yeast cells, mediated by glucose adsorption, increasing glucose diffusion and glucose transport across the cell membrane.&lt;/p&gt;

Backer ex K.Heyne was compared.&lt;strong&gt; Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;To explore total phenolic, flavonoid and tannin content of both leaf and flower extracts of &lt;em&gt;Peltophorum pterocarpum &lt;/em&gt;(DC) K Heyne. &lt;strong&gt;Method: &lt;/strong&gt;Initially, collected fresh leaves and flower samples were shade dried and extracted with various solvents such as aqueous methanol (1:1), ethyl acetate, ethanol and aqueous. Qualitative analysis was performed for various phytochemical. Then the total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and total tannin content was estimated. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In preliminary phyto-chemical examination of various solvent extracts of both leaf and flowers of &lt;em&gt;P. pterocarpum&lt;/em&gt; revealed that the presence of various phytochemicals such as phlobatannins, terpenoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannin, reducing sugars, phenols and steroids. In phtyochemical evaluation, when compare with all other solvents, Ethanolic extracts shows maximum extractive value. In case of ethyl acetate, it shows very low extractive value in all three phyto-chemicals. In phytochemical evaluation studies, total phenolic content of leaves shows highest in ethanolic extract (33.17 &amp;plusmn; 4.72 mg/g) and lowest in ethyl acetate extract from flower (4.71 &amp;plusmn; 0.07 mg/g), Similarly, flavonoid content of leaves shows highest in ethanolic extract (1.43 &amp;plusmn; 0.01 mg/g) and lowest in aqueous extract of flower (0.23 &amp;plusmn; 0.09 mg/g) but in case of tannin content, flower extracts shows higher tannin content in ethanolic extract (844.59 &amp;plusmn; 10.38 mg/g) whereas lowest tannin content in leaf ethyl acetate extract (9.54 &amp;plusmn; 6.98 mg/g).&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This is first report of comparative studies on total phenolic, flavonoid and tannin content of various solvent extracts both leaves and flowers from &lt;em&gt;Peltophorum pterocarpum&lt;/em&gt; (DC) K Heyne.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">140</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

If untreated, it often results in mortality. Many &lt;em&gt;Terminalia &lt;/em&gt;spp. have documented therapeutic properties as general antiseptics, inhibiting the growth of a wide variety of bacterial species. This study examines the ability of selected Australian &lt;em&gt;Terminalia&lt;/em&gt; spp. extracts to inhibit &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis &lt;/em&gt;growth. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Solvent extracts were prepared from &lt;em&gt;Terminalia carpentariae&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Terminalia grandiflora &lt;/em&gt;plant material and investigated by disc diffusion assay for the ability to inhibit the growth of an environmental strain of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. Their MIC values were determined to quantify and compare their efficacies. Toxicity was determined using the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; nauplii bioassay. The most potent extracts were analysed by GC-MS headspace analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;T. carpentariae&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; T. grandiflora &lt;/em&gt;leaf, fruit and nut solvent extractions displayed good growth inhibitory activity against &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. Methanolic &lt;em&gt;T. Carpentariae &lt;/em&gt;leaf and &lt;em&gt;T. grandiflora&lt;/em&gt; nut extracts were particularly potent growth inhibitors, with MIC values of 74 and 155 &amp;micro;g/mL respectively. The &lt;em&gt;T. carpentariae&lt;/em&gt; leaf ethyl acetate extract was also a good inhibitor of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt; growth (MIC 340 &amp;micro;g/mL). All other extracts were substantially less potent growth inhibitors. Interestingly, the&lt;em&gt; T. Carpentariae &lt;/em&gt;leaf extracts with growth inhibitory activity were nontoxic in the &lt;em&gt;Artemia fransiscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay, with LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values &amp;gt;1000 &amp;micro;g/mL. In contrast, the LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value 740 &amp;micro;g/mL reported for the methanolic &lt;em&gt;T. grandiflora &lt;/em&gt;nut extract indicates low-moderate toxicity. Non-biased GC-MS phytochemical analysis of the most active extracts (methanolic &lt;em&gt;T. carpentariae&lt;/em&gt; leaf and &lt;em&gt;T. grandiflora&lt;/em&gt; nut) putatively identified and highlighted several compounds that may contribute to the ability of these extracts to inhibit the growth of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;The growth inhibitory activity of the methanolic &lt;em&gt;T. Carpentariae &lt;/em&gt;leaf and &lt;em&gt;T. grandiflora &lt;/em&gt;nutextracts against &lt;em&gt;B&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;anthracis&lt;/em&gt; indicates their potential for the treatment and prevention of anthrax. Furthermore, thelack toxicity of the &lt;em&gt;T. Carpentariae &lt;/em&gt;leaf and the low-moderate toxicity of the &lt;em&gt;T. grandiflora &lt;/em&gt;nut extract, indicates that their use may extend to all forms of the disease (cutaneous, inhalation or gastrointestinal).&lt;/p&gt;

The immunomodulatory potential of&lt;em&gt; D.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;stramonium&lt;/em&gt; active fraction was assessed by i) MTT microcytotoxicity assay using A549 (lung carcinomas) and MCF-7 (breast cancer) cell lines and ii) analyzing the production of IL-2 and IFN-&amp;gamma; by human PBMC in the presence of active fraction. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Chromatographic fractionation guided by PBMC proliferation assay of &lt;em&gt;D. stramonium&lt;/em&gt; extract resulted in bioactive fraction (fraction-10) exhibiting significant immunostimulatory activity [EC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;=19.1&amp;plusmn;1.5 (&amp;mu;g/ml)] on human blood lymphocytes. Fraction-10 pretreated PBMC displayed enhanced cytotoxicity towards A549 and MCF-7 (59%&amp;plusmn;2.1% and 62%&amp;plusmn;2.3% at 1:20 effector:target ratio respectively). Moreover, fraction-10 also enhanced the secretion of IL-2 (8 fold) and IFN-&amp;gamma; (10 fold) by human PBMC. The preliminary phytochemical analysis of fraction-10 from&lt;em&gt; D. stramonium&lt;/em&gt; showed the presence of terpenoids and steroids. LC-MS analysis depicted presence of four major phytoconstituents in fraction-10 as daturaolone, daturadiol, stigmasterol and sitosterol with corresponding mass spectrum (m/z) of 440, 442, 412 and 414 respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The present report concluded that active fraction-10 of&lt;em&gt; D. stramonium&lt;/em&gt; possesses potential immunostimulators that are capable of enhancing anticancer responses of human blood lymphocytes.&lt;/p&gt;

Although &lt;em&gt;Cakile maritima&lt;/em&gt; has a high antioxidant capacity, it is yet to be tested for the ability to inhibit the growth of the bacterial triggers of autoimmune inflammatory diseases. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; solvent extracts were analysed for antioxidant capacity by the DPPH free radical scavenging assay. Growth inhibitory activities against bacterial species associated with initiating rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and multiple sclerosis were determined by disc diffusion assay and quantified by MIC determination. Toxicity was determined by &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All &lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; solvent extracts displayed good DPPH radical scavenging activity, although the ethyl acetate extract was particularly potent with an IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 3.4 &amp;mu;g/mL. The other extracts also had significant radical scavenging activity, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; between 4.7 and 13.6 &amp;mu;g/mL. The bacterial growth inhibitory activity of the extracts correlated with their free radical scavenging activity. The ethyl acetate extract displayed the most potent growth inhibitory activity against most bacterial species. This extract was particularly potent against&lt;em&gt; Proteus mirabilis&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Proteus vulgaris&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Pseudomonas aeruginosa&lt;/em&gt; (MIC values of 431, 559 and 777 &amp;mu;g/mL, respectively). The hexane extract was also a potent inhibitor of the &lt;em&gt;Proteus&lt;/em&gt; spp., (MIC of approximately 500-800 &amp;mu;g/mL). The ethyl acetate extract also inhibited &lt;em&gt;Klebsiella pneumoniae&lt;/em&gt; growth, albeit with higher MIC&amp;rsquo;s (approximately 1500 &amp;mu;g/mL). All other &lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; extract-bacteria combinations generally resulted in mid-low potency inhibition. All of the extracts were determined to be nontoxicin with the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana &lt;/em&gt;bioassay, with LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values substantially &amp;gt;1000 &amp;mu;g/mL. A total of 97 unique mass signals were detected in the &lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; ethyl acetate extract by nonbiased GC-MS headspace analysis. A number of terpenoids which may contribute to the therapeutic bioactivities of the extract were putatively identified.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The lack of toxicity and the inhibitory activity against microbial triggers of rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and multiple sclerosis by the &lt;em&gt;C. maritima &lt;/em&gt;ethyl acetate extract indicates its potential in the treatment and prevention of these diseases.&lt;/p&gt;

The authentic samples are cleaned, powdered and passed through sieve No. 80. A few mg of powder was stained with saffranin, Toluidine blue and Iodine and photographed under different magnifications with the help of NICKON Labphot -2. HPTLC studies were followed by Sethi and Wagner &lt;em&gt;et al&lt;/em&gt; method. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The colour, taste, cork cells, fibres, sclereids, starch grains, calcium oxalate crystals, number of spots and Rf values of HPTLC are found to be differentiating diagnostic characters in powdered form of &lt;em&gt;S. racemosa&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;S. crataegoides&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The findings of the present study is believed to be helpful in standardization of Ayurvedic formulation containing stem bark of &lt;em&gt;S. racemosa&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;S. crataegoides&lt;/em&gt; as ingredients in powder form. The study sets the specific microscopic protocol and HPTLC finger print of the two drugs and may lead to global acceptance and reputation of the Ayurvedic system.&lt;/p&gt;

In present time many synthetic antioxidants are commonly used but due to their toxic and carcinogenic effects, their use has been restricted. So the search for natural antioxidants is important. Studies on natural compounds is of interest due to their satisfactory health benefits with low toxicity. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The antioxidant activity of ethanol and aqueous extract of shoot, seed and leaf of an important medicinal tree &lt;em&gt;Nyctanthes arbor-trist&lt;/em&gt; is (Harsingar) were evaluated by DPPH scavenging antioxidant assays. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Different concentrations 25, 50, 75, 100% of the aqueous and ethanol extracts were prepared with standard solutions (ascorbic acid 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.09, 0.1 mg/ml). To 1.5 ml solution of DPPH (0.1 mM), 0.5 ml of various concentrations of the extract and standard were added. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: In the present study a comparative evaluation of antioxidant activity of seed, shoot and leaf of &lt;em&gt;Nyctanthes arbor-tristis&lt;/em&gt; Linn was performed for their aqueous and ethanol extracts. Ethanol and aqueous extracts of shoot revealed more antioxidant activity then seed and leaf.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; All aerial parts of &lt;em&gt;Nyctanthes arbor-tristis&lt;/em&gt; Linn possess antioxidant activity. The plant may be functioned out for its anticancerous properties in future.&lt;/p&gt;

Acute toxicity test were performed to find any abnormalities in mice. Wound healing activities were performed on Wistar rats using excision, incision, dead space and burn wound model. The percentage of wound closure and period of epithelization were recorded for excision and thermal burn wound model, whereas the breaking strength was recorded in incision wound model. In dead space wound model, hydroxyproline content and granulation tissue antioxidant enzymes like SOD and CAT were estimated. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The phytochemical investigation showed the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, lipids and triterpenoids. There were no abnormalities observed in the acute toxicity test. The results of wound healing activity revealed that EEAAS treated group showed an enhanced wound contraction and epithelization period in both excision and burn wound models, whereas in incision wound model the wound breaking strength was significantly increased in extract treated group compared to control. The histology of the skin of healed excised wound showed restoration to almost the normal architecture of the skin in extract treated group compared to the control. In dead space wound model, enhanced antioxidant enzymes and connective tissue markers were observed in the extract treated group. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Thus the results conclude that EEAAS possesses potent wound healing properties with a reasonable safety profile.&lt;/p&gt;

When tested&lt;em&gt; in-vitro&lt;/em&gt;, the extract exhibited the most potent radical-scavenging activity at a maximum concentration of 10 mg/ml, scavenging effects of 64%, 67% and 69% and corresponding half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) values of 6.7 mg/ml, 6.8 mg/ml and 6.2 mg/ml on hydroxyl, superoxide and DPPH radicals, respectively. Ascorbic acid used as a standard (10 mg/ml) showed scavenging effects of 73%, 73% and 75% and corresponding IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;values of 5.3 mg/ml, 5.8 mg/ml and 5.2 mg/ml, respectively, on hydroxyl, superoxide and DPPH radicals. At 10 mg/ml, the extract and an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid standard exhibited 68% and 78%, respectively, chelation of ferrous ions; at the same concentration, the reducing power of the extract and that of a butylated hydroxytoluene standard was found to be 3.855 and 4.308, respectively.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These observations strongly suggest that the ethanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;T. divaricata&lt;/em&gt; leaves has potent&lt;em&gt; in-vitro&lt;/em&gt; antioxidant activity and thereby could act as a possible therapeutic agent for oxidative stressinduced pathological states.&lt;/p&gt;

A cost effective and eco-friendly technique for the green synthesis of SNPs from 1mM AgNO&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt; solution through the leaf extract was carried out. The biosynthesized SNPs were characterized using UV spectro photometry, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), X-ray Diffraction analysis (XRD), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectrometry. DPPH assay was done to determine the antioxidant activity and for &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; hypoglycemic activity glucose uptake by yeast cells, alpha-amylase inhibition assay, adsorption capacity and glucose diffusion assay was carried out. The SNPs of ethanol leaf extract were found to be spherical in shape and up to 60.67 nm average in size. They showed alpha-amylase inhibitory activity of 80.32% at 500 &lt;em&gt;&amp;mu;&lt;/em&gt;g/ml and IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 100 &lt;em&gt;&amp;mu;&lt;/em&gt;g/ml. The glucose uptake by yeast cells was found to increase with an increase in concentration. The maximum glucose uptake was found to be 68.29% at 10mM concentration. The molar concentration of glucose was directly proportional to the glucose binding capacity of extracts. The rate of glucose diffusion across the membrane was found to increase from 30 to 180 minutes. The DPPH scavenging activity was found to be potent (71.60%) at 500 &lt;em&gt;&amp;mu;&lt;/em&gt;g/ml. The hypoglycemic effect exhibited by the SNPs was revealed by simple &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;model of yeast cells, mediated by glucose absorption, increasing glucose diffusion and glucose transport across the cell membrane.&lt;/p&gt;

Infections result in exotoxin production, tissue necrosis and unless promptly treated, may result in death. &lt;em&gt;Terminalia ferdinandiana&lt;/em&gt; (Kakadu plum) fruit has documented therapeutic properties as a general antiseptic agent. Fruit extracts have been reported to inhibit the growth of an extensive panel of pathogenic bacteria. Leaf extracts have also been shown to block the growth of several bacterial species associated with autoimmune inflammatory diseases. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana&lt;/em&gt; fruit and leaf solvent extracts were investigated for growth inhibitory activity by disc diffusion assay against a clinical strain of &lt;em&gt;Clostridium perfringens&lt;/em&gt;. Their MIC values were determined to quantify and compare their efficacies. Toxicity was determined using the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; nauplii bioassay. Active extracts were analysed by non-targeted HPLC-QTOF mass spectroscopy (with screening against 3 compound databases) for the identification and characterisation of individual components in the crude plant extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Methanolic and aqueous &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana&lt;/em&gt; fruit and leaf extracts, as well as the leaf ethyl acetate extract, displayed growth inhibitory activity in the disc diffusion assay against &lt;em&gt;C. perfringens&lt;/em&gt;. The leaf extracts were generally more potent growth inhibitors than the corresponding fruit extracts, although the aqueous fruit extract had substantially greater efficacy than the aqueous leaf extract. The methanolic and ethyl acetate leaf extracts were particularly potent growth inhibitors, with MIC values of 206 and 117 &amp;mu;g/ml respectively. The fruit methanolic extract also displayed good efficacy, with an MIC of 716 &amp;mu;g/ml. In contrast, the chloroform and hexane extracts of both fruit and leaf were completely devoid of growth inhibitory activity. All &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana &lt;/em&gt;extracts were either nontoxic or of low toxicity in the Artemia fransiscana bioassay. Non-biased phytochemical analysis of the methanolic and ethyl acetate leaf extracts revealed the presence of high relative levels of a diversity of galloand ellagi- tannins.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The low toxicity of the &lt;em&gt;T. ferdinandiana &lt;/em&gt;extracts and the potent growth inhibitory bioactivity of the leaf methanolic and ethyl acetate extracts against &lt;em&gt;C. perfringens&lt;/em&gt; indicates their potential as medicinal agents in the treatment and prevention of clostridial myonecrosis and enteritis necroticans. Metabolomic profiling studies indicate that these extracts contained a diversity of tannins.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">144</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mitchell Henry Wright,&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; Joseph Sirdaarta,&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt; Ben &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Matthews,&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Anthony Carlson Greene,&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; Ian Edwin Cock,&lt;sup&gt;1,2*&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

This is a large, tall, evergreen tree occurring in the Himalayan region from Kashmir to Assam in India. It comes under the Family: Pinaceae. The present study was designed for isolation of flavonoid from ethyl acetate extract of &lt;em&gt;A. webbiana&lt;/em&gt; leaves and assessed their toxic effect on liver and kidney. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The isolation of flavonoid using different chromatographic methods (thin layer and column chromatography). The isolated flavonoid was identified; Structures and chemical bonds were analyzed by using MP, FTIR, 1-H NMR and MS spectral analysis. Effect of flavonoid on liver and kidney was assessed by inducing (0.1 ml/kg) CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; (i.p.) and (6 mg/kg) Cisplatin (i.p.) respectively measured by biochemical marker of liver and kidney. &lt;strong&gt;Results and Discussion: &lt;/strong&gt;It was identified that isolated compound was as 4&amp;rsquo;-hydroxy quercetin on the basis of FTIR, 1-H NMR and MS spectral analysis. Isolated flavonoid reduced the increased biochemical marker (BM) of liver and kidney. The BM was increased by inducing CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; and Cisplatin respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Isolated compound was 4&amp;rsquo;-methoxy quercetin and significantly protect the liver and kidney.&lt;/p&gt;

It is used as paste on the body of cattle and birds for curing skin diseases. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; To characterize the pharmacochemical features and to study the acaricidal effect of ethanolic extract of &lt;em&gt;C. curviflora&lt;/em&gt; on engorged female ticks of &lt;em&gt;R. (B.) annutatus. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The pharmaco-chemical features such as physico-chemical, proximate, phytochemical, fluorescence, and HPTLC profiling were carried out using standard techniques. The pulverized leaves were subjected to soxhlet extraction using ethanol. The ethanolic extract at different concentrations (10% to 1.25%) was tested against ticks using adult immersion test (AIT). &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; The preliminary phytochemical investigation showed high contents of saponins, alkaloids and flavonoids. The HPTLC profiling of ethanolic extract showed the presence of 14 polyvalent components. Based on AIT, the extract at 10% revealed 43.76% of inhibition of fecundity (IF) and 29.16% of adult tick mortality. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results revealed that the extract has some active compounds that may influence in the reproductive system of female ticks.&lt;/p&gt;

Aug&lt;em&gt;. &lt;/em&gt;DC., commonly known as Parpata in South India. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Pharmacognostical, physicochemical, nutritional evaluation along with the TLC profiling and preliminary phytochemical screening was carried out. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Histological study of different parts of the plant revealed the presence of different cellular structures viz. stem showed the presence of multi cellular to unicellular trichomes, collateral vascular bundles, starch grains etc. Mesophyll of the leaves was embedded with starch grains with clustered calcium oxalate and prism shaped crystals. Anomocytic stomata were present on both the epidermis of the leaf. Powder microscopy exhibited multi cellular trichomes, clustered calcium oxalate, fibres etc. Physicochemical and histochemical studies revealed the presence of various secondary metabolites and different minerals within the acceptable limits. Thin layer chromatographic profiling showed different spots suggesting the presence of specific phytoconstituents in different extracts. The plant also revealed good nutritional value with calorific value of about 245 kcal/100g; Vitamin C 112 mg/100 g and higher amount of calcium etc. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results are beneficial to establish the quality control parameters of the plant species and may be served as future reference for the identification and authentication of the genuine crude drug and also provide sufficient data to recognize the use of the plant as dietary suppliment.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shantha Thirumalai Ramaseshan&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Patchaimal Pitchaiah&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Prathapa Reddy Maramreddy&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Vandana Bharti&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Kishore Kumar Ramakrishna&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Venkateshwarlu Gaddam&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Devesh Tewari&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Chinmay Rath&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Anupam Mangal&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Padhi Madan Mohan&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; and Dhiman Kartar Singh&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Beauv.) Bignoniaceae &lt;/em&gt;extract&amp;nbsp;(SCE) is one of many herbal medicines&amp;nbsp;used widely in Ugandan traditional&amp;nbsp;medicine for various ailments. Generally most of these herbal&amp;nbsp;medicines&amp;nbsp;are yet to be standardized or have their phytochemical content characterized.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Method: &lt;/strong&gt;This study identified the secondary metabolites in the stem bark&amp;nbsp;methanolic extract and quantified them. The same extract was subjected&amp;nbsp;to serial solvent fractionation, TLC characterization and antidiabetic testing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The secondary metabolites were found to comprise of 7.5% alkaloids,&amp;nbsp;10% flavonoids, 13% tannins and 17% saponins per gram of plant material.&amp;nbsp;The TLC characteristics of the fractions (hexane (HX), ethylacetate (EA)&amp;nbsp;and methanol (ME)) viewed under UV light revealed spots with the following&amp;nbsp;Rf values; the hexane partition gave HX7EA3 (0.96 and 0.68) HX9EA1&amp;nbsp;(0.68 and 0.3), EA1ME9 (0.86 and 0.58), EA3ME7 (0.87), EA7ME3 (0.85)&amp;nbsp;and EA9ME1 (0.85). The ethylacetate partition gave the following HX1EA9 (0.53, 0.34 and 0.18), HX3EA7 (0.59, 0.40 and 0.26). &lt;strong&gt;Discussion: &lt;/strong&gt;All the&amp;nbsp;fractions produced nominal reduction of hyperglycemia. Except hexane&amp;nbsp;fraction at 50 mg/kg and ethylacetate fraction at 200 mg/kg all the fractions&amp;nbsp;had percentage reductions of glucose greater than that of the control at&amp;nbsp;the experimental doses. Although the values of percentage reductions of&amp;nbsp;hyperglycemia by the hexane fraction were apparently dose-dependent,&amp;nbsp;the greatest margin of reduction of hyperglycemia was observed in the&amp;nbsp;residual aqueous fraction. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;It was found that SCE contains&amp;nbsp;valuable phytochemicals in appreciable quantities which are antidiabetic.&amp;nbsp;The residual aqueous fraction is the most potent antihyperglycemic of the&amp;nbsp;solvent fractions.&lt;/p&gt;

Nanoparticles are formally synthesized by chemical methods in which the toxic and flammable chemicals are used. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;This article reports about an effective, rapid and eco-friendly technique for the fabrication of gold nanoparticles from gold chloride solution using &lt;em&gt;Azima tetracantha&lt;/em&gt; Lam. leaves extract. The effects of the leaves extract of &lt;em&gt;Azima tetracantha&lt;/em&gt;, the concentration of Gold chloride solution, the time of the reaction and the effect of tem&amp;not;perature on the rate of the reaction were investigated. The synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were characterized by using various techniques such as Dynamic Light Spectroscopy (DLS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis spectra gave surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at 540 nm, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). This revealed the reduction of gold ions (Au&lt;sup&gt;+&lt;/sup&gt;) to gold metal (Au&lt;sup&gt;0&lt;/sup&gt;) which indicated the formation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The antimicrobial action of biosynthesized AuNPs indicated effective activity against bacterial pathogens &lt;em&gt;Aeromonas liquefaciens&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Enterococcus fecalis&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Micrococcus luteus&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Salmonella typhimurium&lt;/em&gt; and fungal pathogens &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Cryptococcus sp, Microsporum canis, Trichophyton rubrum&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This revealed that gold nanoparticles could provide a safer alternative to conventional antimicrobial agents.&lt;/p&gt;

This present study aims to assess its toxicity. &lt;strong&gt;Aims:&lt;/strong&gt; This study was designed to study the toxicity of dichloromethaneethanol extract of Morinda morindoides. &lt;strong&gt;Settings and Design:&lt;/strong&gt; Toxicological activity in vivo. &lt;strong&gt;Methods and Material:&lt;/strong&gt; Alkaloids were characterized from reagents of Bouchardat, flavonoids by reacting the cyanidrine, tannins by the reagent Stiasny, polyphenols by reacting ferric chloride, quinones by the reagent Bornstra&amp;euml;gen, sterols and polyterpenes by the reaction of Libermann and saponins by observing the foam after agitation of the extract. Acute and subacute toxicity were studied using respectively 423 and 407 OECD guidelines for testing of chemicals. Statistical analysis used: The graphical representation of the data was performed using the Graph Pad Prism 5.0. The mean value is accompanied by the standard error of the mean (Mean &amp;plusmn; SEM). The difference between the two values is considered significant when P&amp;lt;0.001. Statistical analysis of results was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The phytochemical screening showed the presence in the ETDE of polyphenols, alkaloids, flavonoids, sterols and polyterpenes. The toxicological study shows that ETDE has a LD50 between 2000 and 5000 mg/kg bw therefore classified in the hazard category 5. The administration of ETDE at repeated dose for 28 days did not significantly affect the weight gain, hematological and biochemical parameters of rats. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; ETDE toxicity is relatively low with LD50 between 2000 and 5000 mg/kg bw. It does not cause damage to the heart, liver and kidney. ETDE can be used without risk of intoxication.&lt;/p&gt;

The aqueous extract was taken as a decoction. The methanolic extract was further fractionated by taking solvents of increasing polarity viz, hexane, chloroform, n-butanol and water. The extract as well as the fractions were analysed qualitatively for various phytochemical constituents. Fresh nematodes (Setaria digitata) were recovered manually from the peritoneum of infested buffalo, were washed and transferred to the extract containing petriplates (concentrations of 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125 and 1.56 mg/ml) immediately and the motility/death of Setaria digitata was noted. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The presence of flavonoids and tannins were detected in all the extracts where was phenolics as absent in the hexane fraction. The methanolic extract of Tulsi and Kamla produced death of nematodes in concentrations of 3.125 mg/ml and the extract of tulsi was found to be more potent. Similar results were also observed in the case of hydro alcoholic extract whereas the aqueous extract showed no effect. The chloroform fraction of Ocimum sanctum and n-butanol and chloroform fractions of Mallotus were equally potent in inhibiting the motility and producing death of the worms. The control drug, albendazole produced death in 30 minutes in both the concentrations. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It could be concluded that higher doses of the extract are as potent as albendazole.&lt;/p&gt;

Research states that a diet rich in polyphenols renders many health benefits by scavenging such harmful reactive species. &lt;em&gt;Celosia argentea&lt;/em&gt; (Amaranthaceae), a common weed in India has been reported as a potential source of cheap, natural antioxidants due to its phenolic abundance. In this research work efforts were made to identify and screen the phenolic rich fractions of &lt;em&gt;Celosia argentea&lt;/em&gt; for their antioxidant and anticancer potential. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Various solvent fractions with increasing polarity were subjected to total phenolic content, followed by antioxidant assays-DPPH, ABTS and anti proliferative assays- Brine shrimp Bioassay, Antimitotic and MTT assays. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of methanolic fraction for DPPH assay was statistically significant (26.25; &lt;sup&gt;***&lt;/sup&gt;P&amp;lt;0.001) when compared with ascorbic acid (12.50; &lt;sup&gt;***&lt;/sup&gt;P&amp;lt;0.001). Also TEAC values for methanolic fraction and BHT (standard) for ABTS assay were similar (2.1; &lt;sup&gt;***&lt;/sup&gt;P&amp;lt;0.001) Methanolicfraction at 400 &amp;mu;g/ml exhibited strong cytotoxicity (9.0 &amp;plusmn; 0.81; &lt;sup&gt;***&lt;/sup&gt;P&amp;lt;0.001) against brine shrimps comparable to Methotrexate at 50 &amp;mu;g/ml(10; &lt;sup&gt;***&lt;/sup&gt;P&amp;lt;0.001) and significantly reduced mitotic index from 96.8 to 38.0 (&lt;sup&gt;***&lt;/sup&gt;P&amp;lt;0.001) which was further confirmed by MTT assay where IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of methanolic fraction for SiHa and MCF-7 cells was found to be 28 &amp;mu;g/ml with no cytotoxicity to normal cells proving its anticancer potential. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This research proves antioxidant and anticancer potential of phenolic rich fraction of Celosia argentea and suggests it to be useful in cancer management as antifroliferative, chemo preventive and in cancer chemotherapy induced immune suppression and oxidative stress.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">191</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rukhsana Abdul Rub&lt;sup&gt;*1&lt;/sup&gt;, Manohar Janardhan Patil&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Areej Abdul Siddiqui&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Priyanka Rambhau Ghorpade&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, and Alpana Subhod Moghe&lt;sup&gt;3 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Research states that a diet rich in polyphenols renders many health benefits by scavenging such harmful reactive species. &lt;em&gt;Celosia argentea&lt;/em&gt; (Amaranthaceae), a common weed in India has been reported as a potential source of cheap, natural antioxidants due to its phenolic abundance. In this research work efforts were made to identify and screen the phenolic rich fractions of &lt;em&gt;Celosia argentea&lt;/em&gt; for their antioxidant and anticancer potential. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Various solvent fractions with increasing polarity were subjected to total phenolic content, followed by antioxidant assays- DPPH, ABTS and anti proliferative assays- Brine shrimp Bioassay, Antimitotic and MTT assays. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of methanolic fraction for DPPH assay was statistically significant (26.25; ***P&amp;lt;0.001) when compared with ascorbic acid (12.50; ***P&amp;lt;0.001). Also TEAC values for methanolic fraction and BHT (standard) for ABTS assay were similar (2.1; ***P&amp;lt;0.001) Methanolicfraction at 400 &amp;mu;g/ml exhibited strong cytotoxicity (9.0 &amp;plusmn; 0.81; ***P&amp;lt;0.001) against brine shrimps comparable to Methotrexate at 50 &amp;mu;g/ml(10; ***P&amp;lt;0.001) and significantly reduced mitotic index from 96.8 to 38.0 (***P&amp;lt;0.001) which was further confirmed by MTT assay where IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of methanolic fraction for SiHa and MCF-7 cells was found to be 28 &amp;mu;g/ml with no cytotoxicity to normal cells proving its anticancer potential. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This research proves antioxidant and anticancer potential of phenolic rich fraction of Celosia argentea and suggests it to be useful in cancer management as antifroliferative, chemo preventive and in cancer chemotherapy induced immune suppression and oxidative stress.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt; Antioxidant, Brine shrimp, Mitotic index, MTT, Phenolics.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">191</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rukhsana Abdul Rub&lt;sup&gt;*1&lt;/sup&gt;, Manohar Janardhan Patil&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Areej Abdul Siddiqui&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Priyanka Rambhau Ghorpade&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, and Alpana Subhod Moghe&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1,*&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Pharmacognosy, M.C.E.

However, the absence of scientific evaluation of medicinal plants may cause serious adverse effects. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To analyze the phytochemical composition of the ethanolic extracts of leaves of &lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt; using gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods: &lt;/strong&gt;GC-MS Analysis was used. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The GC-MS Analysis revealed 25 constituents of which 12 of the compounds were identified. The major constituents were two unidentified compounds with percentage peak areas of 23.51% and 16.8%. Of the identified compounds, the outstanding in composition were 7-Tetradecenal, (Z) (peak area 9.39%), n-Hexadecanoic acid (peak area 7.12%), Oleyl Alcohol (peak area 6.15%), Phytol (peak area 5.61%), cis, cis, cis-7,10,13-Hexadecatrienal (peak area 4.26%), 2-Pentadecanol (peak area 3.93%), 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid, ethyl ester (peak area 3.21%), 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, butyl octyl ester (peak area 2.67%), and 1,E- 11,Z-13-Octadecatriene (peak area 2.15%), while the rest had less than 2% composition by peak area. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The current study suggests that ethanolic extracts of leaves of &lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt; are a potent therapeutic agent and paves the way for the development of several treatment regimens based on compounds from this extract.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">300</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yahaya Gavamukulya&lt;sup&gt;1,2*&lt;/sup&gt;, Faten Abou-Elella&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Fred Wamunyokoli&lt;sup&gt;1,4 &lt;/sup&gt;and Hany A El-Shemy&lt;sup&gt;1,3,5&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It is often fatal if left untreated. Many Australian plants have documented therapeutic properties as general antiseptics, inhibiting the growth of a wide variety of bacterial species. This study examines the ability of selected Australian plant extracts to inhibit &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt; growth. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Solvent extracts were prepared using plants with documented ethnobotanical usage to treat bacterial infections, or published antibacterial activity. The extracts were investigated by disc diffusion assay for the ability to inhibit the growth of an environmental strain of &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. Their MIC values were determined to quantify and compare their efficacies. Toxicity was determined using the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; nauplii bioassay.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Methanolic and aqueous extracts of &lt;em&gt;Eucalyptus baileyana&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Eucalyptus major&lt;/em&gt; displayed potent antibacterial activity in the disc diffusion assay against &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt;. The methanolic extracts were particularly potent with MIC values as low as 290 &amp;mu;g/mL (&lt;em&gt;E. major &lt;/em&gt;methanolic extract). &lt;em&gt;Tasmannia insipidia&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; Tasmannia stipitata&lt;/em&gt; extracts also inhibited &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis &lt;/em&gt;growth, albeit with low efficacy. The &lt;em&gt;E. baileyana&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;E. major&lt;/em&gt; methanolic leaf extracts as well as the &lt;em&gt;E. baileyana&lt;/em&gt; aqueous leaf extract induced significant mortality in the &lt;em&gt;Artemia fransiscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay, with LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values substantially &amp;lt;1000 &amp;mu;g/mL, indicating the toxicity of these extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The potent inhibitory bioactivity of the &lt;em&gt;E. baileyana&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;E. major&lt;/em&gt; extracts against &lt;em&gt;B. anthracis&lt;/em&gt; demonstrate their potential as medicinal agents in the treatment and prevention of anthrax. However, their toxicity indicates that their use may be limited to the treatment of the cutaneous form of the disease, or for sterilisation of infected sites.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">389</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mitchell Henry Wright&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Anthony Carlson Greene&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; and Ian Edwin Cock&lt;sup&gt;1,2* &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The proteolytic activity of AqSEJ was confirmed by spectrophotometer and zymography experiments. Fibrinogen, fibrin and plasma protein hydrolyzing activities of AqSEJ were analyzed on SDS-PAGE under reduced conditions. Plasminogen activation and indirect hemolytic activities was analyzed using spectrophotometer. The non-toxic property of AqSEJ was tested by edema, hemorrhage in experimental mice. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; AqSEJ exhibited proteolytic activity and the specific activity was found to be 1.04 units/mg/min. Furthermore, AqSEJ non-specifically hydrolyzed A&amp;alpha;, followed by B&amp;beta; and &amp;gamma; chains of human fibrinogen and specifically hydrolyzed &amp;alpha; polymer and &amp;alpha; chain of partially cross linked human fibrin clot without affecting &amp;beta; chain and &amp;gamma;-&amp;gamma; dimer even up to the tested dose of 30 &amp;micro;g for the incubation period of 8 hours. Importantly, AqSEJ did not hydrolyze other plasma proteins and devoid of plasminogen activation property. The proteolytic activity of AqSEJ was completely neutralized by PMSF and IAA, while EDTA, EGTA, 1,10-Phenanthroline did not, suggesting the presence of serine and cysteine family proteases. Moreover, AqSEJ did not cause edema and hemorrhage in experimental mice up to the tested dose of 200 &amp;micro;g and non-toxic to RBC cells. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; AqSEJ hydrolyzes fibrinogen and fibrin clot and non-toxic in nature. Hence, this work showcases the potential applications of Jack fruit seed proteases in the treatment of thrombotic disorders.&lt;/p&gt;

In recent years, Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton is used as a functional food for treating various diseases without authentication. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The current work was investigated to perform the morphoanatomical and physicochemical of Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton fruit. &lt;strong&gt;Method: &lt;/strong&gt;Pharmacognostic studies were carried out for different parameters include organoleptic, macroscopic, microscopic, fluorescence and physicochemical analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The fruit was shining burgundy purple in colour having smooth lustrous surface, globular to ellipsoidal in shape with 10-15 mm in length and diameter was 9 mm. The main microscopic characteristic of fruit showed ovules, compact angular parenchyma cells, developed sclerenchymatous outer sheath, central xylem and phloem strands. Fruit powder showed oil bodies, spherical parenchyma cells in large thick masses and walls of the epicarp demonstrated cellulose content. Further, physicochemical examination of fruit powder showed loss on drying, total ash, insoluble ash as 9.23, 7.8, and 9.16% w/w respectively. The water and alcohol soluble extractives values of the fruit were 24.74 and 76.88% respectively. Anthocyanins and flavonids were also confirmed by phytochemical screening.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; A variety of pharmacognostic features was found in fruitful way which may help in identification and standardization of Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton fruit in a crude form.&lt;/p&gt;

Blood samples were analyzed for glucose levels at 0, 30&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, 60&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, and 120&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; min after respective treatments and the peak blood glucose (PBG) levels and area under the curves (AUC) were determined. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Results demonstrated that 500 mg, 1000 mg/kg of HMESM reduced and prolonged the PBG and decreased AUC simultaneously after starch and sucrose loading in normal and diabetic rats. Similarly acarbose also reduce the sucrose and starch induced blood glucose excursion, whereas it had no peak blood glucose suppressive effect after exogenous glucose load in both normal and diabetic rats. On the other hand, phytochemical study of the said extract revealed that it is rich in phenolic compounds (46.25 mg of gallic acid equivalent/g of extract) and flavonoids (231.72 mg of quercetin equivalent/g of the extract), which may may responsible for pharmacological activities. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The HMESM may have PBG suppressive effect in post-carbohydrate challenged state as evidenced by reduced PBG and AUC. This suggest that HMESM may be used effectively as a safer alternative to control postprandial hyperglycemia especially in pre-diabetic and diabetic patients.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt; Streptozotocin,∝-glucosidase, Postprandial hyperglycemia, Total flavono.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tushar Kanti Bera,&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt; Kausik Chatterjee&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; and Debidas Ghosh&lt;sup&gt;1,*&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Bio-Medical Laboratory Science and Management, Vidyasagar University, Midnapur-721 102, West Bengal, India&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Pharmaceutical Division, Southern Health Improvement Samity (SHIS), South 24 Paraganas, Bhangar-743 502, West Bengal, India.&lt;/p&gt;</style></auth-address></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mehmet Y Gunal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aylin O Heper,</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nezahat Zaloglu</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Effects of Topical Carvacrol Application on Wound Healing Process in Male Rats</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pharmacognosy journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carvacrol; wound healing; TNF-α; IL-1β; TGF-β1; aromatic herbs.</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8th April 2014</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10-13</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Carvacrol containing products such as Origanum onites have been used as phytotherapeutic agents in the treatment of serious skin injury. It has been suggested that carvacrol is the active component of these herbs because of its anti-microbial property. With the anti-microbial activity and as an ingredient of these herbs, carvacrol is a promising molecule for the treatment of skin injury. In the present study, we have evaluated the efficacy of carvacrol on healing progress after excisional skin injury. Here, Wistar-Albino rats were divided into two groups and treated with carvacrol and vehicle. Carvacrol was administrated topically at a concentration of %12.5 for the 5 consecutive days after excisional skin injury. Tissue samples were harvested on days 3&lt;sup&gt;rd&lt;/sup&gt;, 8&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; and 12&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; after injury. Significant beneficial effect of carvacrol was observed at the end of the experiment. In the acute phase of the injury, carvacrol treatment increased tissue granulation and decreased wound depth moderately. These effect of carvacrol was associated with increased TNF-&amp;alpha;. However, at the second half of the experiment the elevated level of TGF-B&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt; was observed as compared with control animals. The level of IL-1&lt;sub&gt;&amp;beta;&lt;/sub&gt; was increased in carvacrol treated animals only on day 8. Here, we provide evidence that carvacrol improves wound healing by regulating pro- inflammatory molecules TNF-&amp;alpha;, IL-1&lt;sub&gt;&amp;beta;&lt;/sub&gt; and TGF-&amp;beta;&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt; carvacrol, wound healing, TNF-&amp;alpha;, IL-1&lt;sub&gt;&amp;beta;&lt;/sub&gt;, TGF-&amp;beta;1, aromatic herbs.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mehmet Y.

Don. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The pharmacognostic studies were carried out in terms of macroscopic, microscopic, physicochemical, fluorescence and phytochemical analysis. Physicochemical parameters such as total ash, moisture content, extractive values are determined as per WHO guidelines. The microscopical features of root components are observed with Nikon labphoto 2 microscopic unit. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The morphologically, root are pale brown colored, cylindrical with slightly bitter in taste and agreeable odour. Distinguishingly roots showed root scares, rootlet and fibrous fracture. Microscopy of root consists of thick epidermis, periderm, and cortex with sclerenchyma cells. Vascular cylinder includes thin phloem and thick, solid and dense xylem cylinder. The prismatic calcium oxalates were observed. Powder microscopy of root revealed that fibres were fairly wide and densely packed with starch grains. The fluorescence and physicochemical standards for root were established. Phytochemically root showed the presence of carbohydrate, glycoside, saponin, flavonoid, phytosterols and phenolic compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; There is no pharmacognostic and phytochemical reports on &lt;em&gt;C. albidum&lt;/em&gt; to authenticate and differentiate them from similar species.

Megaloblastic anemia arises due to curtailed formation of erythrocytes, which leads to formation of a large number of underdeveloped erythrocytes. Proper nutritional supplementation may be useful in such condition. &lt;em&gt;Beta vulgaris&lt;/em&gt; or beetroot is one of the important vegetables consumed worldwide. The aim of the present work was to evaluate anti-anemic potential of beetroot. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Beetroot was extracted with ethanol. Phytochemical and phytoanalytical studies were performed on extract. Anemia was induced by phenyl-hydrazine. Animals were treated with extract throughout the study for 24 days. The red blood cell (RBC) number and hemoglobin concentration were determined every 3 days for 24 days. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Extract was found to be rich in folic acid, ascorbic acid, and iron. Following the induction of anemia, the number of erythrocytes and the hemoglobin concentration decreased by 62.51% and 69.64%, respectively. Administration of standard hematinic preparation and extract (200 mg/kg) resulted in signifi cant increase (&lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt; 0.001; &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt; 0.01) in the number of RBCs as well as hemoglobin concentration when compared to the untreated phenyl hydrazine-induced anemic rats. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Extract effectively raised the level of hemoglobin and erythrocyte count at dose 200 mg/kg. Vitamin and minerals found in beetroot are most likely active ingredients responsible for its hematinic effects. Still, methodical studies are obligatory to derive its effects on humans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Beta vulgaris&lt;/em&gt;, erythrocytes, hemoglobin, phenyl hydrazine.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Anupam Jaiswal&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Aditya Ganeshpurkar&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Ankita Awasthi&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Divya Bansal&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Nazneen Dubey&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Pharmacology, Drug Discovery Laboratory, Shri Ram Institute of Technology-Pharmacy, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Pharmacology, Pharmaceutics Research Laboratory, Shri Ram Institute of Technology-Pharmacy, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India.&lt;/p&gt;</style></auth-address></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meriem GHALEM</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salima MERGHACHE</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meriem BELARBI</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Study on the antioxidant activities of root extracts of Zizyphus lotus from the western region of Algeria</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pharmacognosy Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">b-Carotene Bleaching assay</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DPPH radical scavenging activity assay</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power assay</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polyphenol contents</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Total Antioxidant Capacity test</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ziziphus lotus</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">26th May 2014</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">32-42</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To find a new natural source of antioxidant, the phenolic contents and antioxidant activities of some secondary metabolites extracted from roots of &lt;em&gt;Ziziphus lotus&lt;/em&gt; were evaluated. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The total polyphenol contents were determined spectrophotometrically. Pyrrocatechol, catechin and cyanidin equivalents were used for these parameters. The antioxidant activities of the extracts were determined by several &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; systems of assays, namely DPPH radical scavenging activity method, b-Carotene Bleaching assay (BCB), Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power assay (FRA P) and Total Antioxidant capacity test (TAC).&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The quantitative estimation showed that the roots of &lt;em&gt;Z. lotus&lt;/em&gt; were rich in polyphenols ( 20.09 mg PE/g DW) and proanthocyannidins (1.56%) and they contained a small amount of flavonoids (0.02 mg CE/g DW). The most fractions exhibited high antioxidant activities, and some even showed higher potency than the standard synthetic antioxidants in some instances. In DPPH assay, all extracts had shown significant inhibition (58.535 &amp;ndash; 94.730% at 1 mg/mL). In addition, the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values ranged from 0.211 to 0.816 mg/mL, compared to 0.110, 0.214, 0.214 and 0.413 mg/mL for gallic acid, tannic acid, butylated-hydroxyanisol and ascorbic acid respectively. In (BCB) assay, the extracts showed strong inhibition (55.55 &amp;ndash; 100.00% at 1 mg/mL) and the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values ranging from 0.123 to 0.850 mg/mL compared to 0.433 mg/mL for gallic acid. A dose dependant curve was obtained for all extracts in the FRAP assay. However, the antioxidant potencies of ascorbic acid and extracts were comparable at low concentrations. The majority of extracts showed the highest value of antioxidant activity, based on TAC test (0.073 &amp;ndash; 0.398 mg ascorbic acid / mg extract). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results indicate that &lt;em&gt;Z. lotus&lt;/em&gt; roots could be an important sources of natural antioxidants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ziziphus lotus&lt;/em&gt;, Polyphenol contents, DPPH radical scavenging activity assay, b-Carotene Bleaching assay, Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power assay, Total Antioxidant Capacity test.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Research Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Meriem GHALEM&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Salima MERGHACHE&lt;sup&gt;2*&lt;/sup&gt; and Meriem BELARBI&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;Laboratory of Natural Products, Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences of the Nature and the Life, University of Tlemcen, P.O.

The contents of major active insecticidal components, didehydrostemofoline and stemofoline alkaloids, were analyzed by HPLC. Anti-AChE activity was evaluated using Ellman&amp;rsquo;s colorimetric method and TLC-bioautography. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The contents of didehydrostemofoline and stemofoline alkaloids in the hexane, dichloromethane, and methanol extracts were 3.59 and 0.18, 40.78 and 0.74, and 1.43 and 0.09% w/w, respectively. TLC fingerprints of each extract showed major spots of didehydrostemofoline and stemofoline of which TLC bioassays indicated active AChE inhibitory activity. IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values on anti-AChE activities of hexane, dichloromethane and methanol extracts were 126.72, 73.78, and &amp;gt;1000 mg/ml, respectively while those of didehydrostemofoline, stemofoline, and standard galanthamine were 131.3, 102.1, and 1.30 mM, respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The AChE inhibitory activity of hexane, dichloromethane and methanol extracts from &lt;em&gt;S. collinsiae&lt;/em&gt; roots and their major alkaloids, didehydrostemofoline and stemofoline, were determined. The data support the traditional utilization of this plant as a natural insecticide.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt; Acetylcholinesterase inhibition, Didehydrostemofoline, Stemofoline, &lt;em&gt;Stemona collinsiae&lt;/em&gt;, Stemonaceae.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify; &quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sumet Kongkiatpaiboon&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;, Piyanuch Rojsanga&lt;sup&gt;b&lt;/sup&gt;, Virote Pattarajinda&lt;sup&gt;c&lt;/sup&gt;, Wandee Gritsanapan&lt;sup&gt;a,*&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify; &quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahidol University, 447 Sri-Ayutthaya Rd, Ratchathewi, Bangkok 10400, Thailand&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify; &quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;b&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahidol University, Bangkok 10400, Thailand&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify; &quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;c&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Animal Science, Faculty of Agriculture, Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen 40002, Thailand&lt;/p&gt;</style></auth-address></record></records></xml>
