Antidiabetic medicine has been widely marketed with various mechanisms of action. However, there are side effects from these drugs. Therefore, most diabetic patients consume herbal as complementary. Plants that have been shown to have potential as an antidiabetic are &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia Sappan, Andrographis Paniculata&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Syzygium Cumini&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;. Objective&lt;/strong&gt;: This study aims to examine the in vitro antidiabetic activity of single and combined ethanol extract of those three plants by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase and DPP-IV (Dipeptidyl peptidase IV) enzymes. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity was determined using the paranitrofenil alfa-D-glukopiranosida (pNPG) reaction at a wavelength of 405 nm. Acarbose was used as the positive control. The DPP-IV inhibitory activity using H-Gly-Pro-AMC substrate and detected by fluorescence at λex = 365 nm and λem=415-445 nm. Sitagliptin was used as the positive control. LC-MS analysis was performed to identify the compounds contained in the combined extract. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan &lt;/em&gt;showed better activity to inhibit alpha-glucosidase enzyme than acarbose at IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;of 9,29 μg/mL. The combined extract obtained higher inhibition as DPP-IV inhibitor than single extract at 63, 69%. The highest compound in the combined extract were 5,7-Dihydroxy-3-(4'-hydroxybenzyl) chromone, Protosappanin E-1, Saurufuran B and candidate mass C&lt;sub&gt;36&lt;/sub&gt;H&lt;sub&gt;38&lt;/sub&gt;N4O&lt;sub&gt;5&lt;/sub&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These results indicate that single extract or combined extract potential as antidiabetic.&lt;/p&gt;

Many recent studies have demonstrated that glycyrrhizin (GL) and &lt;em&gt;C. sappan&lt;/em&gt; extract (CSE) exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer and antioxidant action but no study has demonstrated the effect on the oral mucosal ulcer.&lt;strong&gt; Objectives: &lt;/strong&gt;To evaluate the effect of GL and CSE in experimentally chemically induced oral mucosal ulcers using rats. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Male Sprague- Dawley rats were randomly distributed into seven groups: the control group, the comparison group of 0.1% triamcinolone acetonide (TCA), a single treatment group of 3% GL and 3% CSE, combination groups of 3% GL + CSE (1:1, 1:2, 2:1). The oral ulcer model was induced by 15 μL of 50% acetic acid. The clinical healing was evaluated by measuring the ulcer size and body weight from day 0–14 and evaluate the leukocyte number on days 0, 4, 9 and 14. Histological examination was conducted at the end of the treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The group of 0.1% TCA and GL:CSE (2:1) showed greater ulcer closure (&amp;gt;80%) and decreased leukocyte number since day 4 (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05). Body weight loss was observed after ulcer initiation and started to increase after day 4 of treatment. While the histological examination showed similar tissue regeneration profile only from the GL:CSE (2:1) group with the healthy oral mucosa. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Combination treatment of GL:CSE (2:1) enhanced the closure of oral mucosal ulcer and demonstrate complete tissue regeneration.&lt;/p&gt;

Objectives: To determine the levels of andrographolide in A. paniculata herb extract (APE), myricetin in S. cumini leaf extract (SCE), and brazilin in &lt;em&gt;C. sappan&lt;/em&gt; wood extract (CSE) as marker compounds for extract quality control using the HPLC method. Methods: The separation was carried out on a reverse-phase C18 column (150 x 4.6 mm; 5 μm). The isocratic was prepared from methanol - water (50:50 v/v); 0.1% orthophosphoric acid - methanol (60:40 v/v); and 0,3% acetic acid - acetonitrile (85.5: 14.5 v/v) as mobile phase with flow rate 1 mL/min for andrographolide, myricetin, and brazilin determination, respectively and detection using UV detector at a wavelength of 254 nm, 369 nm, and 280 nm, respectively. Results: The linear regression for andrographolide was y = 14113x + 5948.8 (r2= 0.9994); myricetin was y = 87766x – 138895 (r2=0.9996); and brazilin was y = 18520x – 42668 (r2=0.9992). The andrographolide content in APE was found to be 14.4686 %. The myricetin content in SCE was found to be 0.3190 %. The brazilin content in CSE was found to be 2.1280 %. Conclusion: The described HPLC method was successfully used for the analysis of the APE, SCE, and CSE. This method can be used for the identification and quantification of andrographolide, myricetin, and brazilin in herbal raw materials or herbal products containing these three extracts.&lt;/p&gt;

Plants contain a mixture of phytochemical and exhibit a lot of functional food and medicinal properties. This project aims to investigate the potential of selected Thai medicinal plants according to the properties of their antioxidant and antibacterial activities. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The eighteen plants were extracted using maceration method with 95% ethanol. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH and FRAP assay. The total phenolic content was evaluated by Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent. The antibacterial activity was evaluated by agar disc diffusion method. The extract which exhibited high antioxidant and antibacterial activity was selected to observe morphological changes by the scanning electron microscope (SEM). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract of &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan&lt;/em&gt; showed the highest activities on both antioxidant assayed by FRAP method and total phenolic contents, however, exhibited high antioxidant assayed by DPPH compared to &lt;em&gt;Bauhinia strychnifolia&lt;/em&gt; extract. Moreover, the extract of &lt;em&gt;C. sappan&lt;/em&gt; showed the excellent antibacterial activities against six pathogenic bacteria in Gastro-intestinal tract. The morphological change by SEM was selected for further investigation antibacterial activities of &lt;em&gt;C. sappan&lt;/em&gt; extract. The results showed that the inhibitory effect to those bacterial strains could be caused by the disruption of the cell membrane and decrease biofilm formation after treatment with the extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;C. sappan&lt;/em&gt; exhibited strong antioxidant and antibacterial activities against the six pathogenic bacteria.

Although conventional medicine is available, it is usually accompanied by serious side effects such as gastrointestinal problem. Thus, the search for alternative medicine from natural sources is of primary importance. &lt;strong&gt;Context:&lt;/strong&gt; The study is concerned with &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan L.&lt;/em&gt; found in the vicinity of Baybay City, Leyte Philippines. Furthermore, it deals with ethanolic and aqueous extracts of the bark only. It was conducted to determine the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity of C. sappan to provide evidence to support its efficacy as a folkloric medicinal plant. &lt;strong&gt;Aims:&lt;/strong&gt; This work aimed to evaluate the alpha-glucosidase inhibitory activity of aqueous and ethanolic bark extracts of Sibucao (&lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan L.&lt;/em&gt;) and to partially fractionate its bioactive compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Settings and Design:&lt;/strong&gt; Extracts were prepared in increasing concentration to get IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values. Samples were analysed in triplicate both for extracts and fractions collected from chromatography. &lt;strong&gt;Methods and Material:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan L.&lt;/em&gt; bark samples were collected from the vicinity of Visayas State University. Plant materials were dried, weighed and stored. Aqueous and ethanolic bark extracts were prepared using water and 20% ethanol. The total phenolic content of the extracts were determined and the &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of crude bark and aqueous extracts were measured using the method of Kim &lt;em&gt;et al&lt;/em&gt;., 2011. Partial fractionation of bioactive compounds was done successively using gradient elution. The &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of fractions were then determined and Rf values of active compounds were measured using thin layer chromatography (TLC). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Results revealed that aqueous extract (2000 ppm) and ethanolic extract (2000 ppm) show high &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of 100% and 59% respectively. IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of aqueous and ethanolic extract were found to be 300.52 &amp;plusmn; 1.467 ppm and 1560.81 &amp;plusmn; 2.582 ppm, respectively. TLC of fractions show 7 peaks for aqueous extract and 6 peaks for ethanolic extract in which compound with Rf value 0.70 had the highest inhibitory activity of 65%. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Taken together, the high &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory activity of aqueous extracts support the effectiveness of C. sappan L. bark decoctions. In addition, results from bioassay-guided fractionation can be used as an effective tool for further isolation and characterization of &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitors from Caesalpinia sappan L. in the Philippines.&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%">356</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ea Kristine Clarisse B.
