However, its use in a diagnosis is limited due to the unclear definition and description. This study aimed to compare knowledge of &lt;em&gt;Phit-Samdaeng&lt;/em&gt; symptoms and treatments in Northeastern folk medicine, Thai Traditional Medicine, and medicinal plants in the Yang Sisurat District of Thailand. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Semistructured interviews and participatory observations were used to collect data from 12 folk healers. Questions were designed to obtain local knowledge of &lt;em&gt;Phit-Samdaeng&lt;/em&gt; and medicinal plants. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, comparison and interpretation. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Some symptoms of &lt;em&gt;Phit-Samdaeng&lt;/em&gt; in the nine scriptures of Thai Traditional Medicine, &lt;em&gt;Tumraya Silajaruek Watprachethupon&lt;/em&gt;, and of &lt;em&gt;Kin-Phit&lt;/em&gt; and&lt;em&gt; Phit-Kaboon&lt;/em&gt;, in &lt;em&gt;Tamraya Boran Isan&lt;/em&gt;, were similar in &lt;em&gt;Yang Sisurat.&lt;/em&gt; However, the names were different. There were also differences in species and the recipes of herbal remedies among folk healers and in the textbooks. The most used plants to treat &lt;em&gt;Phit-Samdaeng &lt;/em&gt;by folk healers were&lt;em&gt; Clerodendrum paniculatum &lt;/em&gt;L. and C&lt;em&gt;lausena wallichii Oliv.&lt;/em&gt; var. &lt;em&gt;guillauminii &lt;/em&gt;(Tanaka) Molino. Only nine species had pharmacological effects relating to &lt;em&gt;Phit-Samdaeng&lt;/em&gt; treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;The knowledge of &lt;em&gt;Phit-Samdaeng &lt;/em&gt;symptoms in &lt;em&gt;Yang Sisurat&lt;/em&gt; District were consistent with the Northeast folk medicine and Thai Traditional Medicine. The most commonly used species were native plants of Thailand. However, information on the medicinal taste and property from scriptures and pharmacological evidence is lacking. Therefore, the pharmacological activity and toxicity of herbal remedies should be further investigated for efficacy and safety.&lt;/p&gt;

Type 2 is the common form. The herbal remedies for diabetes treatment is an area of research with a huge potential for the progress in the growth of inexpensive alternative medicine with low or no side effects. In this paper, reviews mainly focused on traditionally used medicinal herb, &lt;em&gt;Gymnema sylvestre&lt;/em&gt; and its bioactive components and their mode of actions. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Relevant information was collected from scientific journals, research papers, books and various medicinal reviews. &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; This review provides a comprehensive report on &lt;em&gt;Gymnema sylvestre&lt;/em&gt; having antidiabetic and antioxidant activity due to its bioactive compounds like oleanines (gymnemic acid, gymnema saponins), dammarenes (gymnemasides), anthraquinones, flavones, hentriacontane, pentatriacontane, phytin, resin, tartaric acid, formic acid, butyric acid, lupeol, β-amyrene related glycosides and anthraquinones, alkaloid like gymnamine, flavonoids, cinnamic acid, folic acid, ascorbic acid etc. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Considering the presence of bioactive compounds present in &lt;em&gt;Gymnema sylvestre&lt;/em&gt;, this review is aimed to summarize the information of the chemical constituents and their antidiabetic activities and specially to detect the relation between antioxidants and antidiabetic compounds regarding blood sugar reduction in diabetes.&lt;/p&gt;

Worldwide effects are ongoing to identify new anticancer compounds from plants. With the current decline in the number of new molecular entities from the pharmaceutical industry, novel anticancer agents are being sought from traditional medicines. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; In the present study we investigated the efficacy of methanol extracts of &lt;em&gt;Pavonia odorata, &lt;/em&gt;for its clonogenic inhibition on Human Breast cancer (MD-MB-231), Prostate cancer (PC-3) and Lung cancer (Calu-6) cell lines. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The cytotoxic effect was evaluated by MTT assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The methanol extract of &lt;em&gt;P. odorata &lt;/em&gt;showed significant cytotoxicity against MD-MB-231 and Calu-6, when compared to PC-3cells&lt;em&gt;. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The methanol extracts of &lt;em&gt;P. odorata, &lt;/em&gt;showed effective cytotoxic activities in a dose dependent manner. Future work will be interesting to know the chemical composition and also better understanding the mechanism of action will help in developing it as drug for therapeutic application.&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%">28</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Girish H V&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Vinod A B&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Dhananjaya B L&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Satish Kumar D&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; and Senthil Duraisamy&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
