The study aims at preparing &lt;em&gt;Brassica oleracea&lt;/em&gt; extracts using a range of polar and non-polar solvents and to evaluate its phytochemical, antioxidant and cytotoxicity properties. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Brassica oleracea&lt;/em&gt; was extracted using hexane, ethyl acetate and ethanol. All the extracts were subjected to phytochemical analysis and antioxidant activity was performed using DPPH method. The antiproliferative activity was perfomed on THP-1 cells by MTT assay. The extract showing maximum activity was then characterized using FTIR and GCMS. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The extract study infers positive results for major secondary metabolites (alkaloids, glycosides, proteins, phenols, tannins, steroids, flavonoids, terpenoids and diterpenes) and negative for quinones and coumarins. DPPH radical scavenging assay showed high antioxidant activity for ethanol extracts 45-91% at 5μg/mL followed by ethyl acetate (37%-80%) and hexane extract (23%-73%). The anti-proliferative activity in THP-1 cells, revealed that the ethanolic extract significantly decreases cell viability relative to hexane and ethyl acetate extracts, indicating its potential as a natural anticancer drug. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Cytotoxicity studies further demonstrated a concentration dependent effect on cell viability, indicating its potential bioactivity. The structural analysis performed with FTIR and GC-MS revealed important functional groups and bioactive compounds that could play a role in these effects&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;

This provokes oxidative damage to the cellular membranes of organs that accumulate excess iron. Several researchers studied the oxidative stress in patients with thalassemia during chelation therapy and repeated blood transfusion periods, and they found that β-thalassemia patients are under oxidative stress, but they did not focus on before the chelating therapy period. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;To evaluate the total antioxidant capacity (TAOC) and oxidative stress (OS) in newly diagnosed patients with β-thalassemia before chelating therapy. &lt;strong&gt;Methodology:&lt;/strong&gt; In the present case-control study, twenty patients newly diagnosed with β-thalassemia before receiving chelating agents, and another 30 healthy individuals, sex-matched with patients, considered as a control, were included in the study. Total antioxidant capacity (TAOC) and Malondialdehyde (MDA) were assessed in the studied groups.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The TAOC values of the thalassemic group (35±0.11 u/ml ) were significantly (p&amp;lt;0.001) lower than that of the control group (79±7.2 u/ml). MDA values of the thalassemic group (7.9 ±2.35nmol/l) were significantly (p&amp;lt;0.001) more than that of the control group (0.57±0.25 nmol/l). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study demonstrated that patients with β thalassemia have decreased values of TAOC, and increased values of MDA when compared with the control group.&lt;/p&gt;

Using methanol/dichloromethane and aqueous solvents, the extracts were produced. The antioxidant activity of the extracts was assessed by the 2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl assay, and their phenol content by the gallic acid method. The extracts were found to be inactive or weak against the HeLa (cervix), human cancer cell lines TK-10 (renal), and PC3 (prostate). It is suggested that these three human cell lines be tested against extracts of water and methanol/ dichloromethane at higher concentrations. The plant's leaf extract would also be the best substance to test against the human cell lines TK-10, PC-3, and HeLa. The IC50 values for two to three cell lines show that &lt;em&gt;T. violacea &lt;/em&gt;plant extracts (&amp;gt;100 g/ml) have no effect on cells. &lt;em&gt;T. violacea&lt;/em&gt; extract has greater antioxidant activity than the control. A thorough phenolic analysis showed that water leaf extract had the highest quantity of phenolics whereas bulb methanol/dichloromethane extract had the lowest. Both the methanol/dichloromethane and the aqueous extracts have the same characteristics for antioxidant activity. In order to enhance food's nutritional content and quality while also supporting excellent health, it has been found that phenolic compounds alter the color, flavor, and other sensory characteristics of the meal. Additionally, they help plants defend themselves against harm from ROS, molecular damage, microbial invasion, insects, and herbivores.&lt;/p&gt;

The objective of this study is to analyze the antioxidant activities, total phenolics and flavonoids of the &lt;em&gt;P. americana &lt;/em&gt;seed extract.&lt;em&gt; P. americana&lt;/em&gt; seed extraction was obtained through maceration and reflux using a 70% ethanol solvent. The results obtained were compared in terms of yield productivity, with yields of 43.07 (%) and 39.58 (%) respectively. Phytochemical compounds extracted from &lt;em&gt;P. americana&lt;/em&gt; seeds were tested using the phytochemical screening method, the antioxidant activity assay, the total phenolic analysis, and the total flavonoid analysis. The phytochemical screening showed that &lt;em&gt;P. americana&lt;/em&gt; seeds contain flavonoids, saponins, phenols, tannins, alkaloids, and quinones. The antioxidant activity of the 70% ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;P. americana &lt;/em&gt;seeds obtained by maceration and reflux method was 77.298 g/mL and 98.626 g/mL, respectively, meanwhile the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of vitamin C were 12.883 g/mL. The 70% ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;P. americana &lt;/em&gt;seeds obtained by maceration and reflux method had total phenolic content of 276.96 mgGAE/g and 294.96 mgGAE/g, and total flavonoid content of 1.73 mgQE/g and 12.70 mgQE/g respectively. This simply implies that the 70% ethanolic extracts from &lt;em&gt;P. americana&lt;/em&gt; seeds obtained through maceration and reflux have strong antioxidant activity.&lt;/p&gt;

These plants can manufacture a wide variety of natural chemicals. The present study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity and antioxidant capacity of ethanolic extract of four plant species (&lt;em&gt;Zizyphus lotus, Lavandula dentata, Ruta graveolens, and Dodonaea viscosa&lt;/em&gt;). Using disc diffusion and serial dilution procedures, the antibacterial abilities of these EtPEs were evaluated. The antioxidant properties were evaluated by the FRAP method and the Folin-Ciocalteu technique was used to measure the total phenolic content. Different plant extracts showed different inhibitory effects on the tested bacteria in a dose-dependent manner. Among the tested plant extracts, &lt;em&gt;D. viscose &lt;/em&gt;exhibited the highest antibacterial activity against&lt;em&gt; P. vulgaris &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; S. aureus,&lt;/em&gt; with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 0.5 mg/ml. On the other hand, R. graveolens displayed the highest quantity of phenolic compounds and demonstrated the highest antioxidant activity. Notably, there was a positive correlation observed between the antioxidant activity of the plant extracts and their total phenolic content. In conclusion, the findings of this study suggest that the tested plant extracts hold potential as promising sources of natural antibacterial and antioxidant agents.&lt;/p&gt;

This study was aimed at investigating the antioxidant and antihypertensive effects of this plant. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Antioxidant capacity was determined by radical scavenging assays and ferric reducing antioxidant power. Antihypertensive effects after once off treatment with the leaf/root extracts (500 mg/kg) were evaluated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The effect of the extracts on established hypertension was determined in Wistar rats treated with Nω-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (40 mg/kg/day) for 4 weeks followed by co-treatment with L-NAME and extracts (200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg) or amlodipine (5 mg/kg) or normal saline for 4 more weeks. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The concentration at which there was 50 % inhibition (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) of DPPH radical by the extracts was lower for the leaf extract (0.79 mg/mL) compared to the root extract (1.15 mg/mL). The leaf extract significantly (p&amp;lt;0.01) decreased systolic and diastolic blood pressures in both rat models. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The extracts of &lt;em&gt;Omsteospermum imbricatu&lt;/em&gt; have moderate antioxidants and antihypertensive properties.&lt;/p&gt;

Blood glucose levels and histological changes of liver, kidney and pancreas were analyzed after 14 days treatment. At separate experiment, FeD female Wistar rats were treated with CSA and Chln. The treatment was performed orally at the 1&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; - 20&lt;sup&gt;th &lt;/sup&gt;day of pregnancy. Levels of Hb, Fe and ferritin blood serum, number and body weight of the offspring were analyzed on 21st day (post-partum). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Treatment of CSA for 14 days to diabetic animals demonstrated the hypoglycemic effect, however the histological analysis suggested that the scores of liver, kidney and pancreas were higher than that in the normal group. Moreover, CSA exerted a significant restorative effect by returning the levels of hemoglobin, serum iron, and serum ferritin. A fetus analysis suggested that the fetus body weight of in the CSA and Chln groups was similar to that in the normal group. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;CSA treatment are potential as a new herbal supplement to cure DM and IDA. However, the safety dose should be considered to prevent the toxicity.&lt;/p&gt;

Thus, the current study, aimed to investigate the cytotoxic and antioxidant activities of selected South African medicinal plants. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Scavenging activity of the extracts were evaluated on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), superoxide anion (O&lt;sub&gt;2 &lt;/sub&gt;-) nitric oxide (NO-), hydroxyl anion (-OH) radicals and lipid peroxide (LP) values at varying concentration (20 - 100 μg/mL). Cytotoxic evaluation using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) was conducted on HEK293 cells. Reducing power and metal chelating ability of the extracts were assessed. In the same vein, protective index of DNA plasmid (pET151/D TOPO plasmid) induced free radical by incubating with Fenton’s reagents were tested, &lt;em&gt;in vitro.&lt;/em&gt; Reducing and metal chelating ability of the extracts were evaluated in this study. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The crude extracts displayed radical scavenging activity and limit peroxidation process. The extracts showed potent ferric reducing power and chelating effects. Cytotoxic effects of the extracts analyzed using the MTT assay displayed low toxicity levels. Furthermore, the extracts were able to protect pET151/D-TOPO plasmid DNA nicking induced by hydroxyl radicals in a Fenton’s reaction mixture. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;It is evident in this study that the plant extracts are potential antioxidant therapeutics and justify inclusion of indigenous herbs as a complementary agents in the treatment regimen.&lt;/p&gt;

Antioxidant activities were assessed by DPPH and FRAP assays. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Zingiber officinale &lt;/em&gt;was the richest source of bioactive compounds, followed by&lt;em&gt; Z. officinale&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Alpinia zerumbet&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; Alpinia conchigera&lt;/em&gt;. Total phenolic content and total flavonoid contents ranged widely across these species (17 to 200 mg GAE/100 g DW and 17 to 66 mg RE/100 g DW). All the species studied possessed strong antiglycation properties, ranging from 82 to 98%, with strong positive correlations of total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. The contents of curcumin, 6-gingerol, eugenol and vitamin C were in the range of 1 to 26, 1 to 140 μg/ g DW, 5 to 1600 and 4 to 21 mg/100 g DW, respectively. Seven essential amino acids identified by using LCMS/MS were found in most samples studied ranging from 2 to 6752 μg/100 g DW. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Z. officinale&lt;/em&gt; is an abundant source of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity in all these samples. These plants are fresh sources for developing novel functional ingredients in either food or cosmetics.&lt;/p&gt;

Leaves harvested at three maturity stages were evaluated for TPC and TFC. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Significant difference in TPC and TFC was observed between the three maturity stages. Midmature leaves had the highest TPC and TFC followed by mature and immature leaves. When TPC and TFC for all maturity stages were averaged, a marked difference in TPC and TFC was observed in beet leaf grown under the two passive solar greenhouses. Higher TPC and TFC were observed in the greenhouse with higher photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and UV-transmittance. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Beet leaf should be harvested at the midmaturity stage for consumer to benefit from elevated levels of phenolics and flavonoids.&lt;/p&gt;

The data were subjected to one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and significance differences between mean values were determined by Tukey’s multiple comparison tests (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &amp;lt; 0.05). Pearson correlation coefficient was determined between the antioxidant activities and total phenolic contents using SPSS version 21. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results revealed that antioxidant activities were different statistically significant in each group (&lt;em&gt;p &lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt; 0.05). Carrot peel was the most potent in DPPH radical scavenging activity (61.80 ± 6.14%) and reducing power (0.75 ± 0.25 mM Fe&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;/sup&gt;/g extract) and potato flesh could inhibit DPPH radical (35.60 ± 0.63 %) and had the highest FRAP value (0.61 ± 0.78 mM Fe&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;/sup&gt;/g extract). Pumpkin peel and Chinese radish flesh had the most total phenolic contents as 110.45 ± 22.49 and 142.15 ± 3.53 mg GAE/g extract, respectively. Although no correlations was between antioxidant activities and total phenolic contents in extracts but were significant correlations between DPPH and FRAP assay in vegetable peels and fleshes as 0.931 and 0.819, respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study substantiates the potential of vegetable peels to be used as functional foods and natural free radical scavengers.&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;

Senegal’s&lt;/em&gt; leaves. Methods: Methanol and acetone crude extracts of leaves of &lt;em&gt;A. senegal &lt;/em&gt;were prepared by maceration using organic solvents, methanol and acetone respectively. Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical analysis of the crude extracts were evaluated using Association of Agricultural and Chemist (AOAC) protocols. Antioxidant activities of the crude extracts were determined using 2, 2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The crude extracts (acetone and methanol) showed vary quality of phytochemical constituent including flavonoid, alkaloids, carbohydrate, saponins, tannin, steroids, and terpenoids. Acetone crude possessed significant (&lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt; &amp;lt; 0.05) higher total flavonoid and proanthocyanidin content in comparison with methanol extracts. Whereas, methanol crude extract possessed significant higher total phenol content compared with acetone crude extract. The crude extracts showed antioxidant activities as evidence in scavenging ABTS and DPPH radicals. However, acetone crude with lower IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 0.09 mg/mL possessed significant higher ABTS scavenging ability compared to methanol (0.07 mg/mL) and ascorbic acid (0.07 mg/mL). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The crude extracts could serve as a promising natural antioxidant agent in management of oxidative stress diseases. For further studies, bioactive compounds need to be ascertained.&lt;/p&gt;

It has been used as galactogogue and nerve tonic in folk medicine. The recent research on &lt;em&gt;A. racemosus&lt;/em&gt; has revealed its disease fighting properties such as anti-bacterial, immunomodulatory, cardio protective, anti-stress, etc. Phytochemicals present in the plants are associated with their therapeutic capabilities. Hence, phytochemical screening of a therapeutic plant is essential. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A preliminary qualitative screening of phytoconstituents present in the ethanol and aqueous extract of the plant was done. high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) was used to create a phytochemical fingerprint of the plant extract. Further, a series of antioxidant assays, i.e., 2,2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl (DDPH) radical, Nitric oxide (NO) radical, Superoxide (SO) radical and 2,2'-azinobis( 3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging assays were done.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The phytochemical screening and the HPTLC fingerprint showed the presence of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, glycosides, triterpenoids, saponins etc. They also showed free radical scavenging property and hence can be used as potential primary antioxidant. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;A preliminary screening created a phytochemical profile of &lt;em&gt;A. racemosus &lt;/em&gt;extracts. These phytoconstituents may be linked to the various known therapeutic applications of the plant. This may aid in further extensive studies for identifying and isolating compounds with potential therapeutic value in&lt;em&gt; A. racemosus&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

This plant is commonly used in folk medicine as a remedy of a wide range of illness including gastrointestinal disorders, inflammation, diabetes and microbial infection. The different categories of the secondary metabolites identified from Artemisia species are recognized for their biological activities as antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study aims to isolate new flavonoids from &lt;em&gt;A. monosperma&lt;/em&gt; that might have potential biological activities thus be translated into pharmaceutical uses. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Air-dried &lt;em&gt;A. monosperma&lt;/em&gt; extraction was done using different organic solvents. The methanolic extract was selected for isolation of flavonoids using column chromatography and thin layer chromatography. The chemical structures of the isolated flavones determined based on spectroscopic analysis of ultraviolet, mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Nine flavone aglycones were isolated and identified from the methanolic extract; four of which are reported for the first time from &lt;em&gt;A. monosperma&lt;/em&gt;. These include: 5-Hydroxy-3',4', 6,7-tetramethoxyflavone; 3',5-dihydroxy-4',6,7-trimethoxyflavone (eupatorin); 5,6-dihydroxy-4',7-dimethoxyflavone(ladanein); and 2',4',5-trihydroxy-5',6,7&amp;ndash; trimethoxyflavone (arcapillin). The remaining five flavones were previously identified from this plant as : 4',5-Dihydroxy-3',6,7-tri-methoxyflavone(cirsilineol);5,7-dihydroxy-3',4',6-trimethoxyflavone (eupatilin);4',5,7-trihydroxy-3',6-dimethoxyflavone(jaceosidin);4',5-dihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy- flavone (circimaritin) and 4',5,7-trihydroxy-6-methoxyflavone (hispidulin). In addition, two acetophenone derivatives were isolated from fractions yielded selected flavones and these were identified as 4-hydroxyacetophenone and 3-(2-hydroxymethyl-2-buten-4-yl)-4-hydroxyaceto- phenone. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This successful isolation of these natural flavonoids from &lt;em&gt;A. monosperma&lt;/em&gt; can contribute further to the evaluation of bioactive compounds against disorders including but not limited to inflammatory associated disorders and microbial infections.&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%">1018</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lubna Abu-Niaaj* Ibrahim Katampe&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Phytochemical constituents were investigated both qualitatively and quantitatively. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The leaf extracts of &lt;em&gt;Cerbera odollam Gaertn&lt;/em&gt; were prepared by drying and extracted using Soxhlet apparatus into methanol and aqueous media, which were subjected to phytochemical screening. Total phenols, tannins, flavanols, alkaloids and its antioxidant activity were determined using spectroscopic techniques. Antimicrobial activity were determined using well diffusion method. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Aqueous extract exhibits higher content of phenols, tannins, flavanols and alkaloids, whereas methanol extract exhibits higher content of anthocyanin and cardiac glycoside respectively. Aqueous extract exhibits higher inhibitory concentration (IC %) value for DPPH (2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; radical scavenging assay and reducing power (RP) assay. The methanol extracts exhibited higher inhibitory concentration (IC %) value in SO and NO radical scavenging assay, exhibiting antioxidant properties in five antioxidant models that were investigated. The methanol extract showed some antibacterial activity against&lt;em&gt; Bacillus subtilis,&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli &lt;/em&gt;with inhibitory zone ranging from 2 mm to 3 mm, whereas the aqueous extract showed no activity. High antifungal activity was found against &lt;em&gt;Saccharomyces cerevisiae&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans&lt;/em&gt; for methanol extract and moderate for aqueous extract with inhibitory zone ranging from 9mm to 26 mm. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The finding of our study have suggested that the extracts of &lt;em&gt;Cerbera odollam Gaertn&lt;/em&gt;, possesses a significant amount of phytochemicals and exhibits antioxidant and antifungal activities.&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%">285</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Abinash Sahoo, Thankamani Marar* &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Ashwagandha (&lt;em&gt;Withania somnifera L&lt;/em&gt;.) is a traditional medicinal herb used in the treatment of various ailments. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; In current study we have evaluated the acetylcholine esterase (AChE) inhibitory and antioxidant potential of Ashwagandha root extract (ARE) in in-vitro and &lt;em&gt;ex-vivo&lt;/em&gt; models to give a scientific base to its use in herbal medicine. &lt;strong&gt;Methodology:&lt;/strong&gt; Simplest extraction e.g. maceration method was performed for preparation of extracts using methanol as solvent. Both &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; experimental trial were executed to evaluate the efficacy of root extract. &lt;strong&gt;Result and Discussion:&lt;/strong&gt; ARE substantially scavenged free radicals and effectively prevented protein degradation as well as modification as studied by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Pre-treatment with ARE protected rat lymphocytes against H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;-induced oxidative damage. H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; treatment resulted in DNA fragmentation and significantly decreased the activities of key antioxidant enzymes namely superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase while decreased and increased the content of glutathione and malondialdehyde, respectively. ARE pre-treatment almost reversed these changes indicating its efficiency to suppress hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The study provides the scientific basis of pleiotropic functions of Ashwagandha.&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%">302</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ajay Pal&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Kandikattu Hemanth Kumar&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Bharat Bhushan&lt;sup&gt;*1&lt;/sup&gt; and Vinod Saharan&lt;sup&gt;3 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
