The extracts were prepared using 95% ethanol, and their antioxidant activities were assessed in terms of IC50 and Trolox equivalents. The DPPH assay yielded IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 187.91±28.09 μg/ml, 85.93±10.91 μg/ml, and 71.31±11.29 μg/ml for the leaf, stem, and root extracts, respectively. Similarly, the ABTS assay showed IC50 values of 181.78±22.96 μg/ml for the leaf extract, 70.07±6.40 μg/ml for the stem extract, and 48.09±8.77 μg/ml for the root extract. In both assays, the root and stem extracts exhibited comparable antioxidant activity, whereas the leaf extract showed significantly lower activity (p &amp;lt; 0.05). The FRAP assay revealed no significant differences among the extracts, with Trolox equivalent values ranging from 190 to 211 mg TE/g extract. These findings suggest that the root and stem extracts possess strong antioxidant activity and may be used interchangeably in applications requiring such properties, whereas the leaf extract has comparatively lower potential. Further studies are recommended to explore the therapeutic properties and potential health benefits of these extracts.&lt;/p&gt;

Binding affinities, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions were analyzed to determine ligand– receptor interactions. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Niacin and oxalic acid exhibited stronger binding affinities (–5.90 and –6.00 kcal/mol, respectively) compared to Nutlin-3 (–5.64 kcal/mol). Niacin formed stable hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with key residues within the p53 active site, suggesting a capacity to modulate p53 activity. Oxalic acid demonstrated the highest binding affinity but lacked hydrogen bonding, indicating potential instability despite strong interaction. These findings support previous studies highlighting &lt;em&gt;M. oleifera's &lt;/em&gt;role in ROS suppression and p53 modulation, pointing to its therapeutic relevance in mitigating cellular aging. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Niacin and oxalic acid from &lt;em&gt;M. oleifera&lt;/em&gt; exhibit promising binding characteristics as modulators of the p53 pathway. Their anti-senescence potential warrants further validation through molecular dynamics simulations and biological assays. This study supports the development of natural compound-based therapeutics for age-related cardiac degeneration.&lt;/p&gt;

Antioxidant, anti-cancer, and DNA cleavage activities were based on standard&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;bioassay methods. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The UV-vis absorption peak at 430 nm suggests the formation of silver-based NPs. The FESEM imaging showed spherical-to-cubical shaped MY-Ag NPs with an average size of 45.35 nm. The EDX analysis showed the presence of elemental Ag (89.40%) and N (10.22%), suggesting a successful synthesis. The XRD analysis revealed various peaks at 38.37⁰, 43.56⁰, 63.76⁰, and 77.77⁰, which suggest metallic silver reflections, further establishing the crystallinity of NPs. The MY-Ag NPs inhibited O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; -, OH-, H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, and NO free radicals in a dose-dependent manner. At 50 and 80 μg/mL, it demonstrated a better inhibitory effect on OH- radical than &lt;em&gt;L&lt;/em&gt;-ascorbic acid. The cytotoxicity (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) against human cancer cell lines of the kidney (ACHN) and the liver (HepG2) were 54.21 ± 0.06 μg/mL and 33.36 ± 2.25 μg/mL respectively at 48 h post-treatment. Lastly, at 20 mg/mL for 120 minutes, MY-Ag NPs cleaved DNA, acting as chemical nucleases. This may suggest its capacity to impede cancer cells by cleaving the genome. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Therefore, this study has shown that Myricitrinbased Ag NPs possess notable antioxidant and cytotoxicity that can be further exploited in the search for newer anticancer agents.&lt;/p&gt;

Objective: This study, therefore, utilized a flavonoid glycoside, Myricitrin (MY), isolated from &lt;em&gt;Eugenia uniflora &lt;/em&gt;as a biogenic substance for the synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) and evaluated the antioxidant, anti-hyperglycaemic, and anti-inflammatory potentials. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Flavonoid glycoside was isolated from the leaf of &lt;em&gt;E. uniflora&lt;/em&gt; following standard phytochemical techniques for extraction, solvent-partitioning, column chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography. The phytocompound was characterized by NMR and HRESI-MS methods. Zinc oxide NPs were green synthesized using the isolated flavonoid glycoside. The biogenic ZnONPs were characterized using UV-Vis, FESEM, EDX, and XRD techniques. The biological potential of the MY-ZnONPs was based on in vitro analysis. Nitric oxide (NO), H2O2, OH, and O2 - antioxidant methods were used. The anti-hyperglycaemic effect was based on α-amylase and α-glucosidase enzyme inhibition, while the egg albumin denaturation (EAD) method was used to determine the antiinflammatory effect. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Flavonoid glycoside was isolated and characterized as myricitrin from &lt;em&gt;E. uniflora&lt;/em&gt;. The MY-ZnONPs were green synthesized as a greyish powder. The UV-Vis absorption peaks at 387 and 415 nm match the characteristic peaks for ZnONPs. The FESEM revealed petal-, irregular-, and spindle-shaped NPs of 30-80 nm size, which tend to agglomerate in clusters and bundles. The EDX analysis showed the elemental weight percentage of Zn and O to be 79.83% and 18.51%, respectively, indicating the successful formation of ZnO nanoparticles. The X-ray diffractogram showed the crystallinity of the NPs at 29.23⁰, 36.25⁰, 51.50⁰, 63.67⁰, 72.06⁰, and 78.90⁰. At 100 μg/mL, the NPs demonstrated a comparable 68% inhibition of O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; - to Quercetin, the standard antioxidant. They inhibited EAD in a dose-de pendent manner, having ≥75% inhibition at 200 μg/mL. Finally, they exhibited notable anti-hyperglycaemic properties against α-amylase and α-glucosidase with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 89.24±0.63 and 105.95±0.05 μg/mL, respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study has shown MY-ZnONPs as a flavonoid glycoside-based metal oxide nanoparticle with notable antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities.&lt;/p&gt;

Then, the &lt;em&gt;C. trifolia&lt;/em&gt; leaf extracts were assessed for antioxidant activity by the DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging and FRAP assay. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were determined by the Folin- Ciocalteu and aluminum chloride colorimetric methods, respectively. Antidiabetic activity was evaluated by determination of α-glucosidase inhibitory effect. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Preliminary phytochemical analysis of ethanol and 50% ethanol extracts of &lt;em&gt;C. trifolia&lt;/em&gt; leaves showed positive results for alkaloids, coumarin, tannins, saponins, cardiac glycosides, terpenoids, and steroids. The 50% ethanol extract had the best antioxidant activities of the three antioxidant assays (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &amp;lt; 0.05). The results revealed higher phenolic and flavonoid contents in 50% ethanol extract than in the other extracts (p &amp;lt; 0.05). Moreover, the 50% ethanol extract exhibited the best potential as α-glucosidase inhibitors of all the extracts and acarbose (&lt;em&gt;p &lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt; 0.05). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The results conclude that the &lt;em&gt;C. trifolia&lt;/em&gt; leaves with 50% ethanol as the solvent possessed the potential to extract the highest levels of phytochemical content and have potential antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities for diabetic therapy.&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;

While these species are well-known for their ecological roles in stabilizing soils and providing habitat for wildlife, they also possess significant medicinal value, particularly in traditional African medicine. Searsia plants are rich in bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, phenolic acids, and tannins, which exhibit potent anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. This has drawn scientific interest, especially regarding their potential in cancer treatment. Notably, &lt;em&gt;Searsia chirindensis&lt;/em&gt; and other species have demonstrated cytotoxic effects against various cancer cell lines, attributed to compounds like gallic acid and other polyphenolics. This review delves into the phytochemical profiles of selected &lt;em&gt;Searsia species&lt;/em&gt;, exploring their medicinal properties with a particular focus on their anticancer activities. The anti-inflammatory properties of these plants, coupled with their antioxidant activities, suggest a promising role in cancer prevention and treatment, although further research is necessary to confirm these benefits in clinical settings.&lt;/p&gt;

Nigella sativa L. (black Cumin) seed infusions are useful in Asian and African ethnomedicines in remedying stress and inflammatory-related ailments. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;On this premise, black Cumin-based silver nanoparticles (BC-Ag NP) were developed and evaluated for their biological potential. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were green synthesized using the seed aqueous extract of black cumin (BC). The BC-AgNPs were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), highresolution transmission electron microscopy analysis (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The biological potential of the NPs was based on NO, H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, •OH, and O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; •– radical scavenging antioxidant, egg albumin denaturation (anti-inflammatory), and DNA cleavage assay methods.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The SEM and FESEM revealed spherical-to-cubical-shaped ultrafine BC-Ag NPs with a size of less than 100 nm. The HR-TEM micrograph confirmed each NP to be spherical in shape and within the 10-50 nm range. The X-ray diffractogram showed the crystallinity of the NPs with a sharp peak at 38.12° [reflection index (111)] at an average size of 47 nm. The transformation of metallic silver into elemental silver was validated by EDX analysis, with 97.58% elemental Ag at ~3 keV acute curve. The BC-Ag NPs showed dose-dependent antioxidant activity, with IC50 of 87.56 ± 1.54 and 110.5 ± 2.27 μg/mL against H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; and O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; ._ free radicals, respectively. The anti-inflammatory activity of the NPs was one-third the potency of Diclofenac sodium (standard drug) at IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 103.44 ± 5.35 μg/mL. Finally, the BC-Ag NPs acted as chemical nucleases to cleave DNA at a 20 mg/mL concentration for 120 minutes.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study has shown that AgNPs biosynthesized with black Cumin seed extract possess notable antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and DNA cleavage properties and, thus, may be a useful nanomaterial for efficient pharmaceutical delivery.&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;

The essential oils were obtained through hydro-distillation using a modified Clevenger-type apparatus. The chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to assess the chemical composition. 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;

The immense wealth concealed in marine sources was less known in the past because of a lack of technology. The most recent technological advancements have made gathering and researching marine sources simple. Highly bioactive secondary metabolites that may aid in the development of novel pharmacological drugs are found in marine creatures. The two primary categories of marine algae are macroalgae and microalgae. While macroalgae, also referred to as seaweed, are classified into green, brown, and red algae, microalgae comprise blue-green algae, bacillariophyte, and dinoflagellates. &lt;strong&gt;Material and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Spongomorpha indica, a green macroalga, has been chosen for this study, and its physicochemical parameters, phytochemical analysis, GC-MS analysis, and antioxidant activity have all been examined. The purpose of this study was to determine whether more research on this seaweed's potential benefits for medical purposes is necessary. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The phytochemical tests indicated the presence of potent active constituents like alkaloids, steroids, tannins, and flavonoids; as a result, the study was further extended to GCMS analysis, where seven components were identified, the highest peak and molecular weight of which are all in accordance with WHO guidelines. The physicochemical parameter results were also in line with WHO guidelines. Ultimately, antioxidant activity was assessed using four distinct models, and all results demonstrated a significant amount of antioxidant activity, with superoxide scavenging activity demonstrating the best results.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on the results, it was determined that Spongomorpha indica contains potent active ingredients with significant antioxidant effects. As a result, the study is now being conducted to examine target-related activity to determine the most efficient way to cure a specific condition.&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;

These formulations can be optimized to have stronger therapeutic effects with lower toxicity. The aim of this study was to review research on the antimicrobial, antiinflammatory, antioxidant and toxicological properties of polyherbal formulations around the world, with a view to promoting their use and identifying areas where further research is needed. The author analyzed 99 articles published between 2010 and 2022, using scientific search engines such as Elsevier, BioMed Central, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Scopus, to assess the use of polyherbal formulations in different countries. This article enlists some commercial and non-commercial polyherbal formulations all around the world with India leading in the number of publications on polyherbal formulations, followed by Nigeria, and Pakistan. The various pharmacological studies conducted have shown that polyherbal medicines possess antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and toxicological properties, hence, validating their traditional use. However, further clinical work is required to fully understand the therapeutic potential of polyherbal formulations. The growing interest in the therapeutic use of non-toxic conventional medicinal plants as low-cost alternatives for disease prevention and treatment has made natural products valuable tools for creating new lead compounds and scaffolds. Plants will continue to play a pivotal role in the discovery of drugs for human diseases, and the development of potent cures derived from plants would represent significant progress in the treatment of diseases.&lt;/p&gt;

Garlic is known to act as an antioxidant, antitumor, antibacterial, and antifungal. The antioxidant compound in singlebulb garlic is considered to be better than the antioxidant content in other species of garlic. This research aimed to study the effect of hematological profile in oral administration of single-bulb garlic extract in e-cigarette-induced male &lt;em&gt;Sprague Dawley&lt;/em&gt; rats. The method used in this study was randomized post-test only control group design. Twenty-four rats were randomly distributed into six groups. The group consisted of C (-) as normal rats’ control; C (+) only exposed to e-cigarette smoke; T1 exposed to e-cigarette smoke and treated with vitamin C; T2 exposed to e-cigarette and treated with single-bulb garlic extract 75 mg/kg BW; T3 exposed to e-cigarette and treated with single-bulb garlic extract 100 mg/kg BW; and T4 exposed to e-cigarette and treated with single-bulb garlic extract 125 mg/kg BW. Exposure to e-cigarette smoke is conducted by evaporating the liquid into a gas chamber with a nicotine dose of 3.6 mg/ml. All treatments were given for 14 days. On the 15th day, the rats were sacrificed. Blood samples were collected by the cardiac puncture method and were examined using a hematology analyzer. Data obtained were white blood count (WBC), platelets, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and erythrocytes that were analyzed with one-way ANOVA. The result of this study is that garlic extract may boost immunity in the body. However, higher doses can be toxic to erythrocytes.&lt;/p&gt;

In the traditional medicine from Peru, L chequen is used as aromatic plant, anti-inflammatory and hypocholesterolemic. Objective: To determine the phytochemical profile, evaluate the antioxidant and the antibacterial activity of &lt;em&gt;L. chequen&lt;/em&gt; essential oil. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: In the analysis of the volatile components a Gas Chromatography coupled to Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to identify the content of terpenes and sesquiterpenes. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was the method used to determine the antioxidant activity and obtain the half inhibitory concentration (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;). For the antibacterial activity, a colorimetric macrodilution method was carried out to evaluate the effect of the essential oil of &lt;em&gt;L. chequen&lt;/em&gt; against &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus&lt;/em&gt; ATCC 25923 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The analysis by GC-MS showed two major components alpha-pinene (62.89%) followed by 1,8-cineole (11.94%), and propanoic acid, 2-methyl-, 2-methylpropyl ester with 8.67%. In the antioxidant activity against DPPH radical, the essential oil of &lt;em&gt;L. chequen&lt;/em&gt; showed an IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; equivalent to124.60 ± 2.0 μg/mL. In the antibacterial activity, &lt;em&gt;L. chequen&lt;/em&gt; had an MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) for &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus &lt;/em&gt;ATCC 25923 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 of 4.35 ± 0 μg/mL and 8.71 ± 0 μg/mL respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;em&gt;L. chequen &lt;/em&gt;presented monoterpene compounds as main phytoconstituents as well as antioxidant and antibacterial activity in vitro. The essential oil might be used as antimicrobial agent in the future overall against S. aureus.&lt;/p&gt;

One of them is&lt;em&gt; Gnetum gnemon&lt;/em&gt; L (melinjo). This study aims determined&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;antioxidant activity and the cytotoxic effects of polar, semipolar and non polar melinjo seed fractions againts HeLa cell line. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The melinjo seed were extracted with ethanol as a solvent. Then, the fractionation was done using liquidliquid extraction method with three different polarity solvent. Cytotoxic activity was carried out using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) colorimetric assay in HeLa cell lines at concentrations ranging from 25 to 400 μg/mL. Antioxidant activity was determined by the diphenyl picryl hidrazil (DPPH) radical scavenging method. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Phytochemical screening indicated the presence of phyto-constituents like flavonoids, terpenoid and tanin. The DPPH scavenging activity by the melinjo seed aqueous, ethyl acetate and N-hexane fraction was 733,12 ± 18,95 μg/mL; 68,40 ± 1,9 μg/mL and 2035,70 ± 65,59 μg/mL, respectively. The cytotoxic activity of the melinjo seed fractions showed that the ethyl acetate was the most active fraction against HeLa cell line with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value 45,27 μg/mL.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; In this study, we have observed that the melinjo seed fractions exhibited antioxidant and cytotoxic activity against HeLa cell lines. This is presumably due to the content of phytochemicals and stilbenoids such as resveratrol and gnetin C. Melinjo seeds are more potent as anticancer Compared with other plants that also contain RSV such as grape extract (&lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; L.) against lung cancer cells (A549). From the three fractions, the ethyl acetate fraction had the highest antioxidant and cytotoxic effect compared to the water and n-hexane fractions. &lt;em&gt;Gnetum gnemon&lt;/em&gt; L. can be considered as a potential source of anticancer agents. However, more research is needed to determine the mechanism of action.&lt;/p&gt;

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of &lt;em&gt;Crataegus aronia&lt;/em&gt; extract on the liver enzyme markers, blood glucose levels, lipid profiles, and kidney function biomarkers as well as hematological parameters in induced diabetic rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into seven groups: normal Control; Diabetic; and Diabetic animals treated with two doses of &lt;em&gt;Crataegus aronia&lt;/em&gt; extract (5 and 10mg/kg) (DM + extract), Control treated with the extract ( 5 and 10mg/ kg) and induced diabetic treated with insulin. Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats (50 mg/kg, ip)and normal were orally administrated with &lt;em&gt;Crataegus aronia&lt;/em&gt; extract once a day for 4 weeks. At the end of the experiment, the biochemical and hematological parameters were measured in all groups. Also, the phytochemicals and antioxidant activity of the &lt;em&gt;Crataegus aronia&lt;/em&gt; extract were evaluated. According to findings, the total phenols, total flavonoid, and flavonol contents were 538.3 mg Galic acid equivalent /g extract, 149.3 mg Rutin equivalent / g extract, and 79.3 mg Rutin equivalent / g extract), respectively.

Determination of antioxidant activity with DPPH and CUPRAC, TPC and TFC were performed by UV-visible spectrophotometer. The correlation between TPC, TFC and antioxidant activity of DPPH and CUPRAC as well as the correlation between two methods were conducted by Pearson’s method. The level of flavonoid compounds was performed by HPLC. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Mangosteen leaves, branches and rinds extracts had antioxidant activity of DPPH in the range of 39.920 – 489.708 mg AAE/g and antioxidant activity of CUPRAC in the range of 116.360 – 570.400 mg AAE/g. The highest TPC was given by the ethanol leaves extract (49.525 ± 4.263 g GAE/100 g) and the highest TFC was given by the n-hexane rinds extract (13.859 ± 1.451 g QE/100 g). The ethanol rinds extract contained rutin 0.0327% and kaempferol 0.0049%. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; TPC and TFC correlated positive and significant with the value of antioxidant activity, except for the n-hexane leaves extract using the DPPH method. The DPPH and CUPRAC methods gave linear results in determining the antioxidant activity of mangosteen extracts.&lt;/p&gt;

This study aimed to isolate and identify the bioactive constituents from &lt;em&gt;H. acutatum.&lt;/em&gt; In addition, the crude extracts and isolated compounds were tested for their antioxidant, antibacterial and cytotoxic activities. The phytochemical investigation afforded the known compounds stigmasterol, stigmasterol glucoside, and caffeic acid. The antioxidant activity of the ethyl acetate extract showed higher activity compared to other extracts, ascorbic acid and butylated hydroxytoluene. Antibacterial profiling of all the extracts showed no activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial strains. The cytotoxic activity of the crude extracts was assayed&lt;em&gt; in vitro&lt;/em&gt; against two human cancer cell lines, liver hepatoblastoma (HepG2) and colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco-2). The human embryonic kidney cell line (Hek-293) was used as the non-transformed control. The plant extracts showed insufficient antiproliferative or cytotoxic activity to the tumour and regular cell lines tested, which signifies suitable for human consumption. Overall, this plant has better antioxidant activity than other plants in the genus, which needs further exploration.&lt;/p&gt;

Natural antioxidants obtained from medicinal plant extracts have recently gained popularity as protective ingredients in sunscreen formulations due to their safety, wide range of biological effects on skin, and environmental sustainability in absorbing Ultraviolet (UV) radiation and preventing skin damage. Prolonged exposure to UV rays may cause skin damages like sunburn, photoaging, erythema, edema, wrinkle, and skin cancer. Natural sunscreen products are becoming more popular among consumers who are becoming more aware of the risks of excessive UV and chemicals in beauty and personal care products. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;This review aimed to provide brief information about ten commonly available medicinal plants in Malaysia with potential sun protection factor and antioxidant properties. Methods: In the present review, the relevant literatures were an extensive search from various scientific database including Pubmed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect and Scopus. Ten commonly available medicinal plants in Malaysia such as &lt;em&gt;Graptophyllum pictum, Moringa oleifera, Mangifera indica, Zanthoxylum rhetsa, Andrographis paniculata, Sonneratia caseolaris, Camellia sinensis, Morinda citrifolia, Nephelium lappaceum &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;Murraya koenigii &lt;/em&gt;were included based on its potential sun protection factor (SPF) and antioxidant properties. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: All the ten medicinal plants reported in this review found to have potential antioxidant activities due to the presence of phenolic and flavonoid content in the extracts. All of these findings well correlated to their potential SPF. The M. indica extracts had the highest SPF value among the ten plant extracts reported in this review, with a value of ≥30. This is considered high sun protection action. Extracts of &lt;em&gt;A. paniculata, M. citrifolia, C. sinensis, and G. pictum &lt;/em&gt;have a moderate photoprotective effect (SPF value of ≥15). Sun protection activity was low in M. oleifera and S. caseolaris (SPF value ≤ 2). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The identification of natural antioxidant and photoprotective ingredients from medicinal plants has demonstrated as a potential natural sunscreen product in protecting UV radiation against damaging UV rays, and therefore recommended to utilize them to replace synthetic chemicals in cosmetics development in the future.&lt;/p&gt;

Diabetes mellitus therapy with inhibit activity of alpha glucosidase enzyme could delay absorption of monosaccharides after a meal and interrupt glucose transport into the circulation. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;This research purpose is to investigate in vitro antioxidant activity and alpha glucosidase enzyme inhibitor leaves and stem extract of &lt;em&gt;M. peltata.&lt;/em&gt; Method: The Stem and leaves of &lt;em&gt;M. peltata &lt;/em&gt;were extracted sequentially using the UAE method using hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol as mobile phase/solvent. The &lt;em&gt;M. peltata &lt;/em&gt;extracts were subjected to the antioxidant activity assay by the DPPH radical scavenging and FRAP method. Antidiabetic activity was determined by an enzymatic alpha glucosidase inhibitor. &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract which had best performance in antioxidant activity was stem ME with value of IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;in DPPH 47.41 μg/mL and total antioxidant power 340.04 μmol/g. This study showed that leaves and stem extract of M .peltata have potential alpha glucosidase inhibitors for diabetic therapy. Stem ME had the best activity with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;value 47.44 μg/mL, almost two times better than acarbose as a positive control (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; = 98.38 μg/mL). Leaves ME, leaves EA, and stem EA also give better activity of alpha glucosidase inhibitors than acarbose with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;value 67.24 μg/mL, 69.38 μg/mL, and 72.85 μg/mL, respectively.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;M. peltata &lt;/em&gt;has potential antioxidant and alpha glucosidase inhibitor activity for diabetic therapy.&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;

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;

The main medicinal part of QI plant exists in its edible nutritious gall. This study aimed to determine the effects of extraction solvents on the overall phytochemical content, recovery of tannin and antioxidant activity of the QI galls. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Two solvents of different polarity namely water and methanol, were used to extract bioactive compounds from the QI galls using soxhlet extraction technique. Phytochemical, TLC and HPLC assays were performed to detect and quantify the extracted compounds. DPPH assay was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant potential of the extracted compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; After 6 hours of extraction at respective solvent boiling points, methanol solvent successfully generated 1.8-fold higher crude yield (34.0%) compared to water solvent (18.9%). Phytochemical analysis revealed that both solvent extracts contained different secondary metabolites. The methanol extract was found richer in flavonoid, while the aqueous extract was found richer in phenol, tannin, gallotannin, triterpene and cardiac glycosides. Interestingly, we found that the major type of tannin presence in QI galls was gallotannin (hydrolysable tannin) instead of phlobatannin (non-hydrolysable tannin). The quantification results demonstrated that QI aqueous extract contained significantly higher gallotannin (75.0 μg/mL) compared to QI methanol extract (46.8 μg/mL). Furthermore, the aqueous extract also exhibited significant higher antioxidant activity compared to the methanol extract at concentration of 2 μg/mL. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; This study strongly support the utilization of water solvent for optimum gallotannin extraction from QI galls.&lt;/p&gt;

Br. ex Schult for health beneficial effect by exploring its biological properties and phytochemical profile. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; By using sequential extraction method, &lt;em&gt;H. indicus &lt;/em&gt;roots were extracted with various solvents based on low to high polarity. Subsequently, quantitative phytochemical profiling, antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities were tested by using standard protocols. The MTT assay was carried out in SHSY-5Y cell lines to evaluate anti-inflammatory effect. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Methanol extract displayed highest phytochemical content with high concentration of terpenoid (59.82±0.97 mg LE/g of extract) and saponin (15.03±0.45 mg DE/g of extract). All the extracts exhibited concentration dependent pharmacological activities. In comparison, methanol extract produced highest activities with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;of 15.21±0.31 and 11.36±0.39 μg/ml against NO and DPPH radical scavenging assays respectively. Also, methanol extract showed maximum inhibition against acetylcholinesterase (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;=17.46±0.49 μg/ml) and butyrylcholinesterase (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;=31.05±0.39 μg/ml), however, aqueous extract displayed highest potency against monoamine oxidase-B inhibition (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;=24.60±0.45 μg/ml). At 12.5-100 μg/mL concentrations, methanol and aqueous extracts did not show any cytotoxic effect on SH-SY5Y cells and dose dependently suppressed TNF-α and IL-6 production.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Collectively,&lt;em&gt; H. indicus&lt;/em&gt; could act as a disease modifying therapeutic in pharmaceutical industries by utilizing it as alternative therapy for the management of oxidative stress and its related disorders.&lt;/p&gt;

(Thymelaeaceae) has been used in the Mediterranean basin to treat skin diseases, rheumatism and toothache.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;the aim of this study was to evaluate the biological activities of butanol extract from the &lt;em&gt;D. gnidium&lt;/em&gt; leaves. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;A quantitative analysis by high‐performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector (HPLC‐DAD) was performed. The antioxidant activities were evaluated by using three different assays: 2,2-diphenyl-l-picrylhydrazyl assay (DPPH assay), deoxyribose degradation assay and Cellular Antioxidant Activity (CAA) assay. The butanol extract was investigated for anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities in animal models. In addition, its effect on the production of NO and lysosomal activity &lt;em&gt;in vivo &lt;/em&gt;was assessed. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The HPLC-DAD analysis showed the presence of daphnetin. The butanol extract had a remarkable antioxidant activity in the different systems tested. Furthermore, it has an anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting the xyleneinduced ear edema and reduced the number of abdominal constrictions in mice indicating analgesic effect. It also was found to inhibit (NO) production and lysosomal activity &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These findings support the daphne use in traditional medicine for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. Further investigations to elucidate its mechanism of action are required.&lt;/p&gt;

Free radicals play an important role in the initiation and development of various diseases, one of which is uric acid. Hhis study aims to obtain ethanolic extract from the ripe fruit of &lt;em&gt;Musa balbisiana&lt;/em&gt; Colla using the UAE method and obtain information about secondary metabolites and their bioactivity as antioxidants and anti-gout. The results showed that antioxidant activity test using the DPPH and FRAP methods gave IC&lt;sub&gt;&lt;sup&gt;50&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/sub&gt; values of 150.24 ± 0.0348 mg/L and 227.80 ± 0.0986 mg / L, respectively. The total phenolic content value of 625.64 ± 0.36 mg GAE/g ethanolic extract is thought to have a role in high antioxidant activity. In addition, ethanol extract with a concentration of 50 mg / L has activity in reducing uric acid levels by around 9%. It can be concluded that the ethanolic extract produced by UAE has potential as a source of anti-oxidants and anti-gout.&lt;/p&gt;

The number of cases in many countries has been increasing year by year. In Malaysia, the statistics show that the number of diabetic case in 2019 was 3.6 million and expected to increase in 2025 by 7 million. This disease can develop as a result of oxidative stress production in the body. &lt;em&gt;Nephelium lappaceum &lt;/em&gt;was claimed traditionally being used to treat diabetes mellitus. This research is conducted to review the available literature regarding the antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of &lt;em&gt;Nephelium lappaceum&lt;/em&gt; extracts and constituent that contributes to this activity. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The studies included in this review have been selected using several databases including Google Scholar, Wiley Online Library, Science Direct and Pubmed. The keywords used in database search were “&lt;em&gt;Nephelium lappaceum&lt;/em&gt;”, “antioxidant” and “antidiabetic” and covered the period from 2007 onwards. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; This review revealed that &lt;em&gt;Nephelium lappaceum&lt;/em&gt; extracts have good antioxidant and antidiabetic activities when tested using various methods. These activities are due to the presence of several phytoconstituents in the extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; In conclusion, &lt;em&gt;Nephelium lappaceum &lt;/em&gt;possess antioxidant and antidiabetic activities. It has the potential to be developed as an antidiabetic and antioxidant agent which can be used to treat various oxidative stress-related diseases, including diabetes mellitus.&lt;/p&gt;

Essential oil was isolated by hydro-distillation, analysed using GC-MS, UV-Visible Spectrophotometer and other established biochemical assays were used for the study. The GC-MS analysis of the aerial essential oil of&lt;em&gt; L. crispata&lt;/em&gt; showed the presence of 35 medicinal organic compounds making up 84.4% of the oil. The most abundant component was a phenolic compound called 2-tert-Butyl&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt;,4-dimethoxybenzene (54.5%). The other major terpenoids present in the oil were α-humulene (6.9%) and (+)-sabinene (5.9%). The TPC, TFC, TAA and TAC values of the aerial essential oil of &lt;em&gt;L. crispata &lt;/em&gt;were 172.75±0.00 μgmg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; GAE, 48.69±0.00 μgmg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; QE, 61.85±0.00 μgmg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; AAE and 726.92±0.00 μgmg&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; AAE respectively. DPPH IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;and AAI values of the essential oil were 1.5 μgml&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt; and 26.7. The essential oil displayed varying inhibitory activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria with zones of inhibition ranging from 08-30 mm. The&lt;em&gt; in vitro&lt;/em&gt; pharmacological activities added scientific support to the use of &lt;em&gt;L. crispata&lt;/em&gt; in alternative and complementary medicine. The essential oil of &lt;em&gt;L. crispata&lt;/em&gt; grown in Nigeria will play beneficial roles in human and animal health and therefore a research on this plant might be of great value in drug industries.&lt;/p&gt;

I) The negative control group received physiological saline (PS). II) ChS-200 group received 200 mg/kg of ChS. III) DMBA group was induced with DMBA (20 mg/Kg) dissolved in PS and administrated orally for 15 weeks. IV) DMBA + ChS-50 group, V) DMBA + ChS-250 group, and VI) DMBA + ChS-500 group, which received the extract orally for 15 weeks after DMBA induction. All data were expressed as mean and standard deviation. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnet test was carried out to compare the mean value of different groups Histopathological analysis was evaluated by using Image J software. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Hematology showed that the triglyceride level was significantly lowered (P&amp;lt; 0.01) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level was significantly increased (P &amp;lt;0.01) in groups III, IV and V. Also, ChS extract significantly lowered the C reactive protein (CRP) level (P &amp;lt;0.01) and malondialdehyde level (P&amp;lt;0.05). There was a significant decrease in the frequency of DMBA-induced micronucleated polychromatic erythrocyte (P&amp;lt;0.01). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;Chuquiraga spinosa&lt;/em&gt; showed an ameliorative effect on DMBA-induced breast cancer in rats as well as antioxidant, antitumor and antigenotoxic properties.&lt;/p&gt;

The use of a single dose in the treatment of diabetes is often considered to lack a strong effect. Giving a combination of the compound is a solution to provide a synergistic effect in treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Rat were divided into eight groups (normal, negative control, glibenclamide as a positive control, and five dose extract group). The single dose mountain papaya extract (MPE) and bitter melon extract (BME) were given at 174 mg/kg b.w of MPE, and 380 mg/kg b.w of BME in oral administration. Combination of MPE:BME (25:75, 50:50, 75:25)% or (87:190; 44:285 and 130:95) mg/kg b.w in oral administration. Induction of diabetes used alloxan dose of 150 mg/kg b.w intraperitoneally. The treatment was performed for 21 days with a frequency of once a day. Blood sugar level was measured at pretest, 7&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, 14&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, and 21&lt;sup&gt;st &lt;/sup&gt;days. At the end of the test, measurements of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and pancreatic morphology were measured. Data were analyzed by ANOVA statistic. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The single and combination of MPE-BME showed an decrease in blood glucose levels significantly compared with the negative control (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; ≤ 0.05). The same results from measurements of levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and pancreatic morphology. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on the research, a combination of the MPE-BME had antidiabetic and antioxidant activity, but the activity was not significantly different from both single-dose extract (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;gt; 0.05).&lt;/p&gt;

Elastase inhibition activity was determined, which based on the formation of p-nitroaniline. Tyrosinase inhibition activity evaluated based on inhibition of mushroom tyrosinase by the sample with L-DOPA as substrate. The activity of antioxidant was determined using the DPPH radical scavenger method. LC-MS was used for prediction of naturally occurring phytochemicals. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The RFS extract yield was 9.03 %. The RFS extract revealed inhibition activity against elastase and tyrosinase with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 128.85 ppm, and 155.19 ppm, respectively. DPPH radical scavenging activity gave IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 63.04 ppm. Total phenolic content of the extract was 387.99+3.21 mg GAE/g extract. The LC-MS analysis showed the presence of at least 13 different organic compounds in RFS extract, which might contribute to the bioactivity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Therefore, this experiment further proved that RFS extract might be useful as a natural product ingredient of anti-photoaging skincare products because of its ability to inhibit elastase, tyrosinase, and as an antioxidant.&lt;/p&gt;

It is well known for many biological properties including antioxidant. However, there is no &lt;em&gt;in-vivo&lt;/em&gt; antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities has been carried out previously on&lt;em&gt; S. kunthianus. &lt;/em&gt;Objectives: The present study was aimed to evaluate the antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities of methanolic flower extract of &lt;em&gt;S. kunthianus&lt;/em&gt; (MFESK) against carbon tetrachloride (CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt;)-induced hepatotoxicity in experimental rats. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The Wistar rats were divided into six groups comprising six animals to each. Group I was served as normal control and group II as CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; treated. Both these groups were received sodium CMC (0.3%, 5 ml/kg). Groups III, IV and V animals were treated with MFESK at different dose levels (100, 150 and 200 mg/kg). Group VI was treated with standard silymarin (100 mg/kg). All these treatments were given orally for eight consecutive days. On the 8&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; day of treatment, except the normal group I, all the other group of animals from III to VI were received CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; in liquid paraffin (1:1, 1 ml/kg, i.p., single dose) after 1 h of the vehicle. On the 9&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; day, the animals were anesthetized and blood was collected from the abdominal artery, then the serum was separated and used for the biochemical estimations. Serum marker enzymes such as ASAT, ALAT, ALP, TGL, CR, TP, TC, TB and albumin were measured using Ecoline kits by using autoanalyzer. Further, blood serum and the supernatant solution of homogenized liver and kidney were used for the estimation of antioxidant parameters such as CAT, SOD and TBARS by spectrophotometrically. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The administration of CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; caused a significant increase (P&amp;lt;0.001) in the levels of ASAT, ALAT, ALP, TGL, TC, TB and TBARS and decrease in the levels of CR, TP, Albumin, CAT and SOD in serum. A significant (P&amp;lt;0.001 and P&amp;lt;0.01) restoration of these values towards the normal level was observed in all the three tested doses of MFESK. Similar results were observed for CAT, SOD and TBARS in both liver and kidney tissues. These results designated the strong antioxidant and hepatoprotective nature of MFESK. The histopathological investigation of liver and kidney tissues also confirmed the observed activities. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These findings afford incitement for the development of a novel hepatoprotective herbal drugs.&lt;/p&gt;

It is well known for many biological properties including antioxidant. However, there is no &lt;em&gt;in-vivo&lt;/em&gt; antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities has been carried out previously on&lt;em&gt; S. kunthianus. &lt;/em&gt;Objectives: The present study was aimed to evaluate the antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities of methanolic flower extract of &lt;em&gt;S. kunthianus&lt;/em&gt; (MFESK) against carbon tetrachloride (CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt;)-induced hepatotoxicity in experimental rats. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The Wistar rats were divided into six groups comprising six animals to each. Group I was served as normal control and group II as CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; treated. Both these groups were received sodium CMC (0.3%, 5 ml/kg). Groups III, IV and V animals were treated with MFESK at different dose levels (100, 150 and 200 mg/kg). Group VI was treated with standard silymarin (100 mg/kg). All these treatments were given orally for eight consecutive days. On the 8&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; day of treatment, except the normal group I, all the other group of animals from III to VI were received CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; in liquid paraffin (1:1, 1 ml/kg, i.p., single dose) after 1 h of the vehicle. On the 9&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; day, the animals were anesthetized and blood was collected from the abdominal artery, then the serum was separated and used for the biochemical estimations. Serum marker enzymes such as ASAT, ALAT, ALP, TGL, CR, TP, TC, TB and albumin were measured using Ecoline kits by using autoanalyzer. Further, blood serum and the supernatant solution of homogenized liver and kidney were used for the estimation of antioxidant parameters such as CAT, SOD and TBARS by spectrophotometrically. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The administration of CCl&lt;sub&gt;4&lt;/sub&gt; caused a significant increase (P&amp;lt;0.001) in the levels of ASAT, ALAT, ALP, TGL, TC, TB and TBARS and decrease in the levels of CR, TP, Albumin, CAT and SOD in serum. A significant (P&amp;lt;0.001 and P&amp;lt;0.01) restoration of these values towards the normal level was observed in all the three tested doses of MFESK. Similar results were observed for CAT, SOD and TBARS in both liver and kidney tissues. These results designated the strong antioxidant and hepatoprotective nature of MFESK. The histopathological investigation of liver and kidney tissues also confirmed the observed activities. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; These findings afford incitement for the development of a novel hepatoprotective herbal drugs.&lt;/p&gt;

Antibacterial activity of the extract was investigated against &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus &lt;/em&gt;(ATCC 25923), &lt;em&gt;Bacillus cereus&lt;/em&gt; (ATCC 10102), &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli &lt;/em&gt;(ATCC 25922) and &lt;em&gt;Pseudomonas aeruginosa&lt;/em&gt; (ATCC 27853) using the broth dilution method. The standard 2.2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2.2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) methods were used to evaluate the scavenging activities of the extract. Anti-quorum sensing activity was assessed against biosensor strain- &lt;em&gt;Chromobacterium violaceum &lt;/em&gt;(ATCC 12472). Cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells was investigated using the tetrazolium-based colorimetric (MTT) assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The extract revealed eight volatile compounds with cis-Vaccenic acid (87.06%) and 9-Octadecenoic acid, 1,2,3-propanetriyl ester (5.21%) as the major components. Antibacterial activity against all tested strains with minimum inhibitory concentration range of 1.56 - 12.5 mg/mL was observed. The DPPH and ABTS assays demonstrated scavenging activities with the median inhibitory concentration (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) values of 0.09 mg/mL and 0.003 mg/mL, respectively. The extract also displayed strong anti-quorum sensing activity with 93% inhibition of violacein production at 25 mg/mL. A half maximum inhibitory concentration (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) of 5370 μg/mL was computed in HepG2 cells. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract has potential to be used as a source of therapeutic compounds in pharmaceutical applications.&lt;/p&gt;

For this study, assays were carried out before and after precipitation of tannins by BSA and PVPP tests. Total phenol and condensed tannins of hydroethanolic extract and its fractions were performed by Folin Ciocalteu and hydrolysis methods. Antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH and CUPRAC tests. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Tannins precipitation leads a light decrease of total phenol and condensed tannins contents of samples. Total phenol content of hydroethanolic extract was 51.2 mg GAE/g vs 3.2 after BSA test and 1.7 after PVPP test whereas condensed tannins content obtained 72.2% vs 4.2% and 2.3% after precipitation. Antiradical activity was lost following the elimination of tannins with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;: 5.33 ± 0.04 mg/l vs 78.86 ± 0.92 after BSA and &amp;gt; 500 after PVPP.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This results showed the condensed tannins would be in charge of antiradical and reducing activities of plant barks and PVPP precipitated much better the tannins from those extracts than BSA.&lt;/p&gt;

Ant Nest&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; in vivo &lt;/em&gt;studies on animals have been widely reported its pharmacological activities as an antioxidant. Unfortunately, scientific proofs reported on this plant as human medicine are still lacking.&lt;strong&gt; Aim: &lt;/strong&gt;This study aimed to ensure effectiveness, and safety due to administration of Ant Nest Water Extract (ANWE) formulated in capsule. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Twelve volunteers were divided into 2 groups, 6 volunteers in each group. Group I: Ant Nest Water Extract Capsule (ANWEC) in dose of 350 mg ANWE, and group II: Placebo Capsule (PC) which contained 350 mg amylum. Each groups given the capsule once daily for 28 days. The comparison was made between group I and group II. Hematology tests include hemoglobin, leucocyte and thrombocyte. Blood chemistry tests include SGOT, SGPT, total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL, glucose, ureum (Ur) and creatinine (Cr). Malondialdehyde (MDA) level was measured at day-28 which was the last day of the intervention. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;After 28 days administration of ANWE, the SGOT, SGPT, Ur, and Cr showed in normal level as follows SGOT (U/L): 19.2 ± 3.99; SGPT (U/L): 17.2 ± 6.80; Ur (mg/dL): 19.75 ± 3.66; Cr (mg/dL): 1.06 ± 0.13. MDA (ng/mL) level in ANWEC-treated group was significantly lower (117.2±23.8) than PC (147.25±18.7). There was no intolerable complaints during the observation. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The study concluded that Water Extract of Ant Nest 350 mg has no damage to liver, kidney and hematology, so it was proven that this plant is safed to be consumed by human for its potency as antioxidant.&lt;/p&gt;

However, EPCs migration is greatly reduced in the patient with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Allicin and Vitamin C are hypothesized to improve EPCs migration due to its antioxidant properties. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To investigate the effect of Allicin and its combination with Vitamin C in EPCs migration of CAD patients. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Mononuclear cells were isolated from CAD patients and cultured on fibronectin-coated plates with colony-forming unit Hill medium. The cells were divided into untreated (control), Allicin treatment (dose 100 mcg/ml, 200 mcg/ml, 400 mcg/ ml), and each dose of Allicin combined with 250 mcg/mL of Vitamin C. EPCs migration was assessed with Transwell Migration Assay Kit and evaluated by using statistical tests. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;This research shows that EPC migration was significantly higher in the treatment. Allicin at all dose (dose 100 mcg/ml, 200 mcg/ml, 400 mcg/ml) and its combination with 250 mcg/mL of vitamin C compared to untreated group (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05). Allicin increase EPCs migration in a dosedependent manner. However, the only combination of 400 mcg/ml Allicin with 250 mcg/mL of vitamin C which has significantly higher EPCs migration compared to Allicin treatment alone. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Allicin improves EPCs migration in a dose-dependent manner. Improvement of the migration only observed on the Allicin dose 400 mcg/ml with Vitamin C.&lt;/p&gt;

However, post-transplantation survival of AMSCs is relatively low due to lethal cellular hypoxia. Hypoxic preconditioning is a sublethal hypoxia condition which may improve AMSCs survival. This research evaluates the effect of hypoxic preconditioning on the expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) of AMSCs. Isolated human AMSCs was cultured to the 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; passage and confirmed with CD45, CD90 and CD105 expression. Cells were divided into control group (normoxia with 21% O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;) and hypoxic preconditioning group (with 1% O&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;). ROS and SOD were evaluated using immunofluorescence and analyzed using SPSS 25. AMSCs was characterized by the CD105 and CD90 without expression of CD44 and CD45. ROS expression is significantly lower in hypoxia group than in controlled group (253,13 ± 67,795 vs 342,13 ± 116,447; p &amp;lt; 0.05) and SOD expression is significantly higher in hypoxia group than in controlled group (340,25 ± 96,476 vs 234,56 ± 38,238; p &amp;lt;0.05). In conclusion, hypoxic preconditioning in human AMSCs induce lower expression of intracellular ROS and higher expression of intracellular SOD.&lt;/p&gt;

Willd. was treated with 10 % hydro-alcoholic solution to obtain &lt;em&gt;Katha&lt;/em&gt; as final product. The powdered &lt;em&gt;Katha &lt;/em&gt;was standardised via pharmacognostic parameters and further subjected to soxhlet extraction using ether, ethyl acetate and ethanol to obtain different extracts/fractions. Phytochemical investigations were carried out to screen polyphenols (tannins) of interest which later were confirmed by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Photodecomposition of ethyl acetate fraction with respect to its in-vitro antioxidant potential using DPPH and nitric oxide scavenging assay was determined at 0 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h, 20 h and 24 h of 250, 500, 750 and 1000 μg/ml concentrations respectively. Ethyl acetate fraction conceded the highest amount of polyphenols. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract was found to be unstable at room temperature and displayed a quick change in colour from light orange to deep dark orange within few hours, which also abide by its decreasing antioxidant activity exponentially with time. Antioxidant potential was observed in the following order in dose dependant manner: 0 h &amp;gt; 4 h &amp;gt; 8 h &amp;gt; 12 h &amp;gt; 16 h &amp;gt; 20 h &amp;gt; 24 h. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Moreover, published literature should have not mentioned the age of extract they have used for their study, which may explain the wide differences in the observations reported with this plant.&lt;/p&gt;

This extract was dried by rotary evaporator. The microencapsulation process of &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract was conducted by solvent evaporation method (O/W: oil in water). The formula of &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract microcapsules were designed into six formulas (Eudragit E100: FA&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt;, FA&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, FA&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt; and Ethocel 10 cP: FB&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt;, FB&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, FB&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;). Microcapsules of &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea &lt;/em&gt;leaves extract were characterized for particle size, in terms of surface morphology by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and encapsulation efficiency. Antioxidant activity of the formulation have been evaluated by DPPH method. Physical characterization on microparticles were performed by conducting entrapment efficiency and SEM picture. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;In this research, the micoparticles containing &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea&lt;/em&gt; extract has been developed by using ethyl cellulose (Ethocel 10 cP ) and eudragit (Eudragit E100) as polymer matrix. The results showed that high concentration of polymer (Ethocel 10 cP and Eudragit E100) used in microencapsulation resulted in better &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract microcapsules in terms of physical characteristics. Particle size of microcapsules containing &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract were in the range of 3.564 to 5.887 μm. Encapsulation efficiency (% EE) was categorized as good because the value were ≥ 80% to which 85.978% (FA&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;) and 88.992% (FB&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;). SEM picture of FA&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt; (Eudragit E100) revealed that the surface of microcapsule were rough and porous. When Ethocel 10 cP used as polymer, a smoother surface and less visible pores of microcapsule were obtained. The antioxidant ability of &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract microcapsule showed that IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values was 64.51 ppm. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;It can be concluded that microcapsules of &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea &lt;/em&gt;leaves extract can be prepared by solvent evaporation method by using Eudragit E100 and Ethocel 10 cP as polymer matrix. &lt;em&gt;M. gigantea &lt;/em&gt;leaves has potent antioxidant activity either as extract or after formulated into microcapsules.&lt;/p&gt;

This research aims to investigate phytochemical composition, antioxidant activity and &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;cytotoxicity of marine algal &lt;em&gt;Sargassum polycystum &lt;/em&gt;on cervical HeLa cancer.&lt;strong&gt; Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sargassum polycystum&lt;/em&gt; collected from Dompu beach, Lombok, Nusa Tenggara Barat Province, Indonesia, were extracted into organic solvent of n-hexane, ethylacetate, chloroform and ethanol, respectively. Subsequently, &lt;em&gt;Sargassum polycystum&lt;/em&gt; extracts were applied for Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) analysis, phytochemistry test, total phenolic and total flavonoid contents, as well as for antioxidant activity test by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) method, and in vitro cytotoxicity evaluation on HeLa cells by MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5- diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Phytochemical analysis of&lt;em&gt; S. polycystum&lt;/em&gt; extracts are positive for metabolites of flavonoid, steroid, tannin and glycoside. TLC analysis revealed that &lt;em&gt;S. polycystum&lt;/em&gt; extracts containing four phytochemical components. Ethylacetate extract of&lt;em&gt; S. polycystum&lt;/em&gt; showed the highest total phenolic content, and exhibited greater antioxidant activity than ethanol extract. Total phenolic and total flavonoid content in ethylacetate extract are 548.61 μg/mL and 40.06 μg /mL, respectively. Ethylacetate extract of &lt;em&gt;S. polycystum&lt;/em&gt; with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of 298.3 μg/mL is assigned to have a weak antioxidant activity against DPPH free radical. The results indicate that antioxidant activity of ethylacetate extracts of &lt;em&gt;S. polycystum&lt;/em&gt; is directly correlated with its total phenolic and flavonoid content. Moreover, &lt;em&gt;S. polycystum&lt;/em&gt; extracts demonstrated a strong anticancer activity on cervical HeLa cells with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;ranging from 38.3 μg/mL to 112.8 μg/mL. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This work confirmed that S.polycystum are promising natural antioxidant and anti-cervical cancer agents.&lt;/p&gt;

Although&lt;em&gt; Zea mays&lt;/em&gt; (ZM) silks are considered as waste products, they are consumed for their medicinal properties. They are rich in bioactive components, giving them a wide range of uses as remedies. The aim of this study was to evaluate after a phytochemical screening, the effect of ZM silk aqueous extract on humoral immune response, on Neutrophil bactericidal, antioxidants and hemolytic activities. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The antioxidant activity was assessed using DPPH. Hemagglutination titer assay was used to evaluate the effect on humoral immunity. Hemolytic effect of ZM was evaluated by quantifying hemoglobin rates. The effect on Neutrophil bactericidal activity was assessed using MTT colorimetric assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The extract exhibited high quantity of saponins and flavones; a high antioxidant activity (IC50: 247,15 vs. control 0,152 mg/ml), a significant (p&amp;lt;0, 05) immunosuppressive effect in vivo on titer values of antibodies (80 times) as well as an antibacterial effect on &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Salmonella enteritidis&lt;/em&gt;. A significant suppression of Neutrophil bactericidal activity of cells treated with 0, 5 and 1g/ml of ZM extract was observed. It also exhibited a significant dose-dependent anti-hemolytic activity with the lowest hemolytic activity was found with the lowest concentrations of the extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Our results indicate that aqueous extract of ZM silk possess antioxidant, anti-hemolytic activity as well as an immunosuppressive activity by decreasing humoral immune and Neutrophil bactericidal responses.&lt;/p&gt;

Therefore, this research was sequentially extracted bioactive component from stem bark of kayu sarampa showed alpha glucosidase inhibitor. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To assess antioxidants and alpha glucosidase inhibitory activity of hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol extract from stem bark of Kayu Sarampa. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; The Stem bark was extracted with Reflux method using hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol as mobile phae/solvent. The Hexane Extract (HE), Ethyl Acetic Extract (EAE) and Methanol Extract (ME) were subjected to the antioxidant activity assay by the 2.2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging and the ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) method. Antidiabetic activity was determined by enzymatic alpha-glucosidase inhibitor. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract which had the highest activity based on the DPPH test and FRAP test was the ME compared with EAE, and HE with IC50 values of 16.51 μg/mL, 34.10 51 μg/mL, and 38.82 51 μg/mL , respectively. Ferrous equivalent antioxidant capacity (FeEAC) method, methanolic extract had a higher reduction capacity than the EH and EEA which were 148.96 μmol/gr, 48.96 μmol/gr, and 148.96 μmol/gr, respectively. The result showed that kayu sarampa stem bark exhibited antidiabetic activity due to its high inhibition compared with control (acarbose). ME showed inhibition of 53,11% followed with EAE 49,7%, HE 44,53%, and acarbose as control 29,32%.Conclusion: stem bark of kayu sarampa have bioactive component as alpha glucosidase inhibitor&lt;/p&gt;

However, sweet-type is more available than sour-type. Therefore, developing a new product from sweet-type star fruit, and evaluating its effectiveness on antioxidants and inflammation have been very challenging.&lt;strong&gt; Objectives: &lt;/strong&gt;The aims were to develop a prototype product from sweet-type star fruit and evaluate its effectiveness with or without walking exercise on participants with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The prototype product of sweet-type star fruit was prepared industrially by mixing with honey before nutrients such as L-ascorbic acid (Vit C) and total phenolic compound, and contaminants like chemicals, microbials and oxalic acid were evaluated. Effectiveness of this product on antioxidents, inflammation and physical function was evaluated in participants with stable COPD with and without walking exercise, and compared to walking exercise and control participants. Two spoons of the product (20 g) in sterile warm water (150 mL) were guided and consumed twice daily for 4 weeks, whereas the walking exercise was prescribed with moderate intensity at home for 30 min 3 days per week. Plasma Vit C, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), malondialdehyde (MDA), tumor necrotic factoralpha (TNF-∝) and 6-minutes walking distance (6MWD) were evaluated before and after the 4-week study period. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The prototype product composed of star fruit juice with honey (1:1, v:v). Main nutrients were composed of ash (0.4 g), carbohydrate (74.59 g), lipid (2.88 g), protein (0.57 g) and 326.56 kcal of total energy, whereas Vit C and total phenolic compound were equivalent to 0.25 ± 0.11 mg and 144.89 ± 2.51 μg gallic acid equivalent in a 100 gram of product. The results of chemicals and microbials showed safety under food conditions. The results of study compared the ages of stable COPD participants between those of the controls (n=10, 69.20±1.40 years), and those with star fruit juice and honey supplement (n=20, 71.25 ± 6.01 years), walking exercise (n=15, 60.60±3.38 years), and supplement with walking exercise (n=15, 64.40±1.63 years) and no statistical difference was shown in any parameters in the control group. Whereas, the plasma Vit C and TAC levels increased, and MDA and TNF-∝ levels reduced significantly, in the supplement consumption group, which was in contrast to the Vit C, MDA and TNF-∝ levels in the walking exercise group. However, the TAC level increased significantly when the walking exercise was completed. When the prototype product was applied to the walking exercise, the levels of Vit C and TAC increased, and MDA and TNF-∝ levels reduced significantly. Whereas, the supplement levels increased significantly in all of the groups, especially in the 6MWD. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study proposed that sweet-type star fruit can be prepared industrially by mixing with honey, and be developed as a new commercial product with antioxidant and inflammation activities for participants suffering with chronic lung disease.&lt;/p&gt;

Scientific study to ascertain its claimed biological activity is lacking. The objective of this work was to determine the antioxidant and anticancer activity of &lt;em&gt;Paris polyphylla&lt;/em&gt; rhizomes. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytochemical analysis were carried out by standard methods. Antioxidant activity of the methanolic extract was carried out by DPPH, ABTS, OH-radical and Fe&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;/sup&gt;chelating activity assays. Cytotoxicity of the extract was determined by MTT assay on three cancer cell lines: HeLa, HepG2 and PC3. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Of the &lt;em&gt;P. polyphylla&lt;/em&gt; from two altitudinal zones, &lt;em&gt;P. polyphylla&lt;/em&gt; from Tholung (PPT), the one from the higher altitude showed higher total phenolic contents in methanolic extracts of rhizomes as compraed to that from the lower altitude i.e., &lt;em&gt;P. polyphylla&lt;/em&gt; from Uttaray (PPU). PPT also showed a higher content of total falvonoid and total flavonols. Both types of plant were excellent scavenger of DPPH and ABTS radical and Fe&lt;sup&gt;2+&lt;/sup&gt; chelator. A trend of a relatively greater antioxidant activity of PPT was established through these assay methods. In MTT assay, both the extract showed significant dose-dependent inhibition of HeLa cell growth after 72 hrs of treatment, while the extract had a moderately positive effect on the inhibition of PC3 and HepG2 cells growth.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The study suggested a strong antioxidant activity and appreciable cytotoxic activity of&lt;em&gt; P. polyphylla &lt;/em&gt;from Sikkim Himalaya. Of the two varieties, PPT was more pronounced in both type of activities.&lt;/p&gt;

Epidemiological evidence suggests that consumption of vegetables can prevent degenerative diseases caused by oxidative stress. Considering the less data available on antioxidant activity of roots vegetables consumed in area where there is very less production of vegetables due to harsh climatic condition that prevail in the high mountain area such as Ladakh mostly root vegetables are consumed during the winter season as there used to be no vegetables outside only those vegetables having long shelf life is consumed during winter like radish, turnip, carrot, swede, cabbage, etc. Hence leaves and peel which were often discarded possessed a considerable amount of antioxidant and phenolic and can be used as an ingredient in foods.&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 proliferation of cancer cells. &lt;strong&gt;Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: Solvent extracts prepared from &lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; plant material were analysed for antioxidant capacity by the DPPH free radical scavenging assay. Anti-proliferative activities against Caco&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; and HeLa cancer cells were determined by an MTS based cell proliferation assay. Toxicity was determined by the Artemia franciscana bioassay. The most potent anti-proliferative extract (hexane) was further investigated using non-targeted GC-MS headspace analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: Good DPPH radical scavenging activity was calculated for all &lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; extracts. The methanolic and ethyl acetate extracts had particularly strong antioxidant activity (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 4.7 and 3.4 μg/mL respectively). Interestingly, the hexane extract which had the lowest DPPH radical scavenging activity (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 13.6 μg/mL), was the most potent inhibitor or Caco&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; and HeLa carcinoma cell growth, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;’s of 12 and 126 μg/mL respectively. The ethyl acetate extract was also a potent inhibitor of proliferation (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 185 and 468 μg/mL against Caco&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; and HeLa, respectively). The methanolic extract (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 2261 and 2046 μg/mL against CaCo&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; and HeLa respectively) displayed only moderate anti-proliferative activity, demonstrating that antioxidant activity did not correspond with anti-proliferative activity. All of the extracts were determined to be nontoxic in the Artemia franciscana bioassay, with LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values substantially &amp;gt;1000 μg/mL. Non-biased GC-MS headspace analysis of the &lt;em&gt;C. maritima&lt;/em&gt; hexane extract highlighted several interesting compounds that may contribute to the therapeutic bioactivities of the extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: The lack of toxicity and the anti-proliferative activity of the hexane and ethyl acetate &lt;em&gt;C. maritima &lt;/em&gt; extracts against HeLa and Caco&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; cancer cell lines indicates their potential in the treatment and prevention of some cancers.&lt;/p&gt;

The leaves of &lt;em&gt;Moringa oleifera&lt;/em&gt; and petals of &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus sabdariffa&lt;/em&gt; were extracted by cool maceration with distilled water and ethylacetate, independently for 48 hours using soxhlet extractor. The free radical scavenging activities of the extracts were determined spectrophotometrically. DPPH free radical was used to determine the free radical scavenging activities of the extracts. The reducing power efficacy of the extracts was determined by their ability to reduce Fe&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;+ to Fe&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;+ ions using FERAP. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Ethylacetate extract of &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus sabdariffa&lt;/em&gt; petals had higher free radical scavenging efficacy and more reducing power with an inhibitory concentration (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) of 1.57 mg/ml compared to the ethylacetate extract of &lt;em&gt;Moringa oleifera&lt;/em&gt; leaves which had an IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 2.60 mg/ml. Phytochemical profile revealed that the predominant compounds in both extracts were flavonoids, phenols, and amino acids. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study has established that ethylacetate extract of the Petals of &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus sabdariffa &lt;/em&gt;has more reducing power and free radical scavenging efficacy compared to ethylacetate extract of &lt;em&gt;Moringa oleifera &lt;/em&gt;leaves. These plant parts could serve as novel sources for clinically efficient antioxidants.&lt;/p&gt;

This study quantitatively estimated the total phenolic (TPC), total flavonoid (TFC) and total proautocyanidin (TPA) contents of extract and fractions of&lt;em&gt; B. pinnatum&lt;/em&gt; and correlated them with its antioxidant and anticholinesterase activities. Methanolic extract of the dried leaves was partitioned into n-hexane, ethyl acetate and aqueous fractions. Total phenolic, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins content were estimated as gallic acid or quercetin equivalents. DPPH and nitric oxide scavenging activity as well as ferric reducing power assays were used to evaluate antioxidant activity, using 2,6-di-tert-butyl- 4-methylphenol (DDM) and ascorbic acid as standards.&lt;em&gt; In vitro &lt;/em&gt;anticholinesterase activity was evaluated by Ellmann’s colorimetry assay with phsiostigmine (serine) and donepezil as positive control. The crude methanol extract had the highest phenolic, flavonoid and tannin content. The ethyl acetate fraction had the highest DPPH radical scavenging effect (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 0.004 mg/ml) while the aqueous fraction had the highest NO scavenging and ferric reducing effects with values of IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 0.012 mg/ml and 0.007 mg/ml respectively. The ethyl acetate fraction had the best cholinesterase inhibitory effect (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; 0.951 μg/ml AChE; 3.546 μg/ml BuChE). DPPH radical scavenging effect correlated strongly with total phenolic, flavonoids and proautocyanidins (r&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; 0.896, 0.651 and 0.619 respectively) while ferric reducing power showed weak correlation and NO scavenging as well as AChE inhibition had no correlation. The study shows DPPH radical scavenging could be due to the phenolic content while other class of compounds are responsible for the cholinesterase inhibition.&lt;/p&gt;

Recently, its application on phytochemical sources and its influence on antioxidant activity of various phytochemical compounds has become an interesting topic to be explored.&lt;strong&gt; Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of gamma irradiation as sterilization method on the resveratrol content and its antioxidant, HMG-CoA reductase inhibitory and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitory activities of Melinjo (&lt;em&gt;Gnetum gnemon&lt;/em&gt;) seeds. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this research, melinjo seeds were irradiated by 0.0; 2.5; 5.0; 7.5; and 10.0 kGy with gamma irradiation and then extracted with ethanol. The extracts were tested for resveratrol content with HPLC, antioxidant activities by DPPH assay, HMG-CoA inhibitory activity using HMG-CoA reductase assay kit and DPP-4 inhibitory activity using DPP-4 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit. Gamma irradiation has effect on resveratrol content, antioxidant activity, HMG-CoA reductase inhibition and DPP-4 inhibitory activity. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; From the research, the highest value of resveratrol content is 0.18±0.004 mg/g seeds powder found in 5.0 kGy gamma irradiation treatment with IC50 94.64±0.236 μg/mL, while the highest HMG-CoA reductase inhibition is shown in 2.5 kGy irradiation dose. Melinjo seeds irradiated by 2.5 kGy gamma irradiation also shown a significant increase of DPP-4 inhibition activity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study suggests that 2.5-5 kGy radiation is the effective gamma irradiation dose to improve the quality of melinjo seeds.&lt;/p&gt;

However many other plants lack scientific reports to support their medicinal use. One of such plant is &lt;em&gt;Pelargonium inquinans &lt;/em&gt;Ait that is traditionally used to treat headaches and flu by tribes in South Africa. Not much is known about its chemical composition. &lt;strong&gt;Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: The phytochemical composition of acetone, aqueous and ethanol extract of leaves of &lt;em&gt;Pelargonium inquinans&lt;/em&gt; as well as the vitamins A, C and E of its dried weight leaves and the antioxidant activities were evaluated using standard in vitro methods. The phytochemical composition and vitamins were determined spectrophotometrically, while the antioxidant activities were determined by DPPH, nitric oxide and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity and phosphomolybdenum (total) antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Statistical analysis&lt;/strong&gt;: The One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Tukey test were used to determine the differences among the means of the various samples. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: The phytochemical composition differ significantly in the various extracts. The total phenolics were higher than other phytochemicals in all the extracts used. The hydrogen peroxide and DPPH scavenging activity were very high and dose-dependent. The aqueous extract had the highest antioxidant activity at 98.4 % of control (hydrogen peroxide), while the ethanol extract had the lowest at 37.5% control (nitric oxide). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: The results supports the notion that the Geraniaceae family and &lt;em&gt;Pelargonium inquinans&lt;/em&gt; in particular is rich in polyphenolic compounds and has good antioxidant activity.&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;

Fractionations of the extract provided hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and aqueous extracts. The oil and extracts were analysed for the phytochemicals present. They were evaluated by using antibacterial susceptibility, brine-shrimp lethality and antioxidant capacity assays. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All together 49 compounds (accounting 93.66%) were identified in the litsea oil by GC-MS. Monoterpenes being dominant components, the oil constituted 15.96% of citral (geranial and neral). Other major constituents were capric acid (12.44%), β-caryophyllene oxide (7.69%), linalool (5.96%), eucalyptol (5.13%) and cis- β-terpineol (4.22%). Litsea oil, hexane extract and dichloromethane extract displayed very effective antibacterial property. Ethyl acetate extract (LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; = 21.52 μg mL‒1) and litsea oil (LC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; = 31.62 μg mL‒1) were found highly cytotoxic against brine-shrimp nauplii. Ethyl acetate (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; = 124.57 μg mL‒1) and dichloromethane (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; = 271.08 μg mL‒1) extracts displayed a modest DPPH free radical scavenging activity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytoconstituents present in the &lt;em&gt;L. cubeba&lt;/em&gt; fruits from Nepal were analysed. Litsea oil and the extracts have displayed high antibacterial and potentially anticarcinogenic activities.&lt;/p&gt;

The objective of the present study was to analyze the antioxidant capacity of black tea and to study the effect of addition of fresh milk and packed milk on the phenolics concentrations and antioxidant efficacy. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The black tea infusion (BT), black tea infusion with fresh milk (BTFM) &amp;amp; black tea infusion with packed milk (BTPM) samples were comparatively analyzed for total phenolics, flavonoids and HPLC profiling of major phenolic content. All samples were investigated for their total antioxidant capacity and glutathione level in different organs (brain, liver, kidney and heart). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results shown that BT(black tea infusion) had higher total phenolics and flavonoids followed by BTPM (black tea infusion with packed milk) and then the BTFM (black tea infusion with fresh milk). The analytical HPLC results obtained also indicated that BT contained higher amount of catechins and garlic acid derivatives than BTFM, and BTPM may be due to chelation of free phenolics with some fats and protein in the tested milk samples, which reduces the levels of free phenolics significantly. Concerning antioxidants capacity both tested milk samples reduced antioxidant capacity to more than 50% in different tested tissues. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;We conclude that black tea is a valuable source of antioxidants and that the inhibitory effect of milk on the total antioxidant capacity may be related to complex formation of the fat &amp;amp; protein content of the milk with major phenolics in the black tea.&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;

One of such plants is &lt;em&gt;Moringa oleifera. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To investigate the hepatoprotective and antioxidative properties of ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;Moringa oleifera &lt;/em&gt;(EEMO) against potassium dichromate (K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;Cr&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;7&lt;/sub&gt;) induced hepatocellular damage and oxidative stress in male Wistar rats.&lt;strong&gt; Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Thirty rats were assigned into six groups of five animals each: distilled water, 12 mg/kg bd.wt K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;Cr&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;7&lt;/sub&gt;, 3.5 mg/kg bd.wt EEMO, 7.0 mg/Kg bd.wt EEMO, 3.5 mg/Kg bd.wt EEMO+K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;Cr&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;7&lt;/sub&gt;, 7.0 mg/kg bd.wt EEMO+K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;Cr&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;7&lt;/sub&gt;. The EEMO was administered consecutively for thirty-five days, while K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;Cr&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;7&lt;/sub&gt; was injected intraperitoneally once weekly before the animals were sacrificed. Liver function and oxidative stress markers including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione -S-transferase (GST) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were monitored in the serum and liver. Histopathology of the liver was also carried out. In addition, proximate analysis of the powdered leaves and phytochemical composition of EEMO were also evaluated. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;Cr&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O&lt;sub&gt;7&lt;/sub&gt; significantly (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &amp;lt; 0.05) increased AST, ALT and MDA levels coupled with decreased SOD and GST activities as well as hepatic lesions when compared with control. However, the two doses of EEMO modified the hepatotoxicity and oxidative stress towards that of control. The EEMO is rich in phenolics and other phytochemicals including hexamethylquercetagetin and hexa-Omethylmyricitin that may account for the observed antioxidative and ameliorative effect. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Our results suggest that ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;Moringa oleifera&lt;/em&gt; modify hexavalent chromate hepatotoxicity by reducing oxidative stress.&lt;/p&gt;

The free radical scavenging assays were employed for investigation of Antioxidant potential in poly herbal formulation. The constraints studied for assessment of wound repair were percentage closing percentage of wound, tensile strength of repaired tissue, breaking strength of granulation tissue and valuation of hydroxyproline content on dried tissue. The histopathological sections of granulation tissues obtained in dead space wound model were studied for the distribution of collagen and other histopathological changes. Four groups were used in this study with six animals each. Group I and Group II acts as normal control and diabetic control whereas Group III and Group IV was used as glibenclamide treated (1mg/kg b.w.) and PHF (500 mg/kg b.w.) treated group respectively. On the other hand the various antioxidant assays like DPPH, scavenging assays, hydrogen peroxide assay etc. were investigated. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The PHF has been significantly healing the wounds in diabetic rats within 18 days, while diabetic control rats healed the wound about 86.12% in the same conditions and time. The wound breaking strength and histopathological studies of healed skin was signified the results. Significant (p&amp;lt;0.01) increase in wound breaking strength as well as epithelialization and the level of hydroxyproline was observed in PHF treated animals comparison with diabetic control group. PHF has also shown significant antioxidant potential in &lt;em&gt;in-vitro&lt;/em&gt; assays. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: All these investigation indicates the significant wound healing and antioxidant potential of PHF in the experimental animal groups in diabetic condition.&lt;/p&gt;

Diabetic neuropathy improvement was also tested as well as insulin levels and histology of the pancreas were performed. &lt;strong&gt;Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: The chromatographic standardization of &lt;em&gt;C. intybus&lt;/em&gt; extract was performed using isocratic HPLC, which indicated the presence of numerous phyto-constituents. The hexane extract was studied for its effect on blood glucose levels and painful diabetic neuropathy (DN) in diabetic mice. Hyperalgesia and mechanical-allodynia were evaluated using thermal stimuli, pain response to radiant energy experiments and a mechanical sensitivity test respectively. Subsequently, after eight weeks of being alloxinated, BGL, body weight, antioxidant activity, insulin levels and glycated hemoglobin were recorded to evaluate antidiabetic potential and the DN. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: The administration of &lt;em&gt;Cichorium intybus&lt;/em&gt; extract (50, 75 and 100 mg/kg) and a combination of &lt;em&gt;Cichorium intybus&lt;/em&gt; extract and &lt;em&gt;Camellia sinensis&lt;/em&gt; (50 + 200 mg/kg, respectively) have revealed an acute hypoglycemic effect ranging from 14.15% and 42.4%. The sub-chronic anti-diabetic effect ranged from 23.41% and 44.8%. They diminished hyperalgesia and tangible allodynia significantly (p&amp;lt;0.05), (n=7 per group). The powerful neuroprotective properties might serve as potential lead-compounds for further analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: The histological study and the potent antioxidant effect showed that they could assist in the management of diabetes mellitus and DN by amelioration of insulin levels and regeneration of pancreatic beta cells.&lt;/p&gt;

The extraction of phytochemicals was carried out by three different methods&lt;em&gt; viz&lt;/em&gt;. sonication, maceration and soxhlet in methanol to identify the best extraction method. Further, analysis of Total Flavonoid Content (TFC) and Total Polyphenolic Content (TPC) were carried out using rutin trihydrate and gallic acid as a reference standard. Antioxidant capacity was estimated using three methods viz. 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2’-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging assay and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assay. In addition to this, GC-MS analysis was also performed for the identification of volatile constituents of Methanol Extract of Stems (MES) and Methanol Extract of Roots (MER). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The MES and Dimethylsulfoxide Extract of Stems (DES) were found to have higher Chlorophyll a (Ch&lt;sub&gt;a&lt;/sub&gt;) content in comparison to Chlorophyll b (Ch&lt;sub&gt;b&lt;/sub&gt;) and Carotenoids (C&lt;sub&gt;ca&lt;/sub&gt;). Carbohydrate profile showed that stems and roots have the highest content of fructose in comparison to other sugar moieties. The soxhlet method showed the highest percentage extractive yield in the stems as well as roots. Results revealed that the MES showed higher antioxidant potential as compared to the MER. A correlation has also found to exist between the results of TPC, TFC and antioxidant assays, since TPC and TFC are key constituents responsible for the antioxidant potential. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;These results have been found to suggest the richness of MES in natural phenols, flavonoids and antioxidants. Further, study should be conducted over identification and characterization of compounds present in the extract.&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;

Aims: This study evaluated the hypoglycaemic and antioxidant activity of its aqueous stem bark extract (PSAE) over a 15-day experimental period in streptozotocin (STZ)-challenged diabetic rats.&lt;strong&gt; Methods and Materia&lt;/strong&gt;l: STZ-induced diabetic rats were administered 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight of the extract once daily and the blood glucose levels were monitored for 15 days. The bioactive constituents of PSAE were analyzed using Gas Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) technique. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: Treatment with PSAE markedly (&lt;em&gt;p&amp;lt;&lt;/em&gt; 0.05) ameliorated the concentrations of blood glucose and improved the lipid metabolism imbalance in the diabetic animals. Also, while PSAE significantly (&lt;em&gt;p&amp;lt;&lt;/em&gt;0.05) improved glycogen and glutathione (reduced) levels as well as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities, the concentrations of glucose and malondialdehyde coupled with the activity of α-amylase were significantly reduced in the liver of PSAE-administered diabetic animals when compared with those of the normal control and untreated diabetic groups. The observed improvements could be associated with the phytoconstituents of PSAE as evident from the results of the GC-MS analysis. Put together, the elicited effects compared favorably well with metformin (a standard hypoglycemic drug) and are suggestive of antidiabetic and antioxidant capabilities of the extract. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: The scope of the data presented in this study indicates that the extract ameliorated streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats and it is suggested to be mediated via antioxidant and concerted blood glucose lowering actions.&lt;/p&gt;

Sea cucumber is a marine invertebrate that contains attractive bioactive secondary metabolites and these metabolites can be used for health as well as cosmetics. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The aim of the study was to determine the activity of tyrosinase inhibitors, antioxidants, and cytotoxicity of sea cucumber methanolic extract. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Dried sea cucumber samples were taken from Boalemo waters, Tomini Bay, Indonesia. Tyrosinase inhibitor assay was carried out spectrophotometrically using tyrosinase enzymes and L-DOPA as a substrate and antioxidant tests were carried out by DPPH method. Cytotoxicity test against human breast cancer cell line (T47D) was conducted using the MTT assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study showed that &lt;em&gt;Bohadschia vitiensis&lt;/em&gt; had the best tyrosinase inhibitor activity with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of 0.28 mg/ml. The DPPH free radical scavenging testing showed that all sea cucumbers had weak antioxidant activity. On the other hand, cytotoxicity assay revealed that several sea cucumbers had good cytotoxicity against T47D cells, where &lt;em&gt;Holothuria atra&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Bohadschia marmorata &lt;/em&gt;showed strong cytotoxicities with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of 23.0 and 28.1 ug/mL, respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on the study, it can be concluded that the dried sea cucumber from the Tomini bay region, Indonesia, has the potential to be developed as a source of tyrosinase inhibitors and cytotoxic agents.&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;

Rats were divided into four groups with 8 rats in each.The Gr. I rats were administered with the single dose of normal saline intraperitoneally. Group II received Beta carotene (10 mg/kg bw) orally for 30 days. Group III received a single dose of 1 mg/kg bw cadmium chloride and Group IV received Beta carotene for 30 days prior to cadmium administration. After the desired protocol, rats were sacrificed and both the testes were removed for biochemical and histopathological evaluation. One testis was fixed in Bouvins fluid and processed or histopathological studies. The levels of lipid peroxides (LPO) and glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected in the tissue homogenates of other testis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In the present study, the level of lipid peroxidation (LPO) was significantly high and GSH and SOD (&lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.001) were low in cadmium treated rats compared to normal control.

Then, anti-inflammatory activity of Hawm Nil rice kefir was studied. &lt;strong&gt;Methodology:&lt;/strong&gt; The physiochemical properties, total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities of these rice milk kefirs were investigated. Anti-inflammatory measurements were performed to study blood chemistry, hematological values and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) level in colitis rats compared with rats treated with prednisolone (positive control) and cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; All the rice kefir formulas had lower pH values than the cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir. Moreover, they all exhibited no changing viscosity. Lactic acid concentrations increased in cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir during 24-48 h. Alcohol concentrations in all the rice formulas increased within 24-48 h, while cow&amp;rsquo;s milk only increased at 72 h. Antioxidant activity, most of the rice milk kefirs had antioxidant activity higher than cow&amp;rsquo;s milk by DPPH assay. In addition, the Hawm Nil rice milk kefir had high antioxidant activity by DPPH assay and FRAP assay. Blood chemistry, hematological values and tumor necrosis factor-&amp;alpha; (TNF-&amp;alpha;) levels in colitis rats treated with Hawm Nil rice milk kefir did not differ from those treated with prednisolone and cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir. TNF-&amp;alpha; in the serum of colitis rats treated with Hawm Nil rice milk kefir was significantly reduced when compared to the PBS buffer. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The findings indicated that color rice kefirs may offer protection against chemically induced tissue injury. Hawm Nil rice milk kefir exerted potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and was safe for human consumption. Other Thai colored rice will be used to develop Thai rice milk kefir products as new and antioxidant-rich beverages and functional foods for human health benefits in the future.&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%">154</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sirirat Deeseenthum*, Vijitra Luang-In, Supaporn Chunchom &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory and antioxidant activities of infusion and decoction of &lt;em&gt;P. serratifolia&lt;/em&gt; leaves.&lt;strong&gt; Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The leaf samples were prepared by infusion and decoction and analysed for their &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibitory and antioxidant activities, as well as total phenolic contents and LC-MS profiles. Results: The total phenolic content of the decoction was higher than the infusion. The UV spectra of both infusion and decoction showed peak at 325 nm and shoulder at 285 nm. Their LC-MS yielded one dominant component at 132 (100) m/z fragment, which was tentatively identified as caffeic acid. Both infusion and decoction extracts exhibited strong &amp;alpha;-glucosidase inhibition with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 4.27 and 0.046 &amp;mu;g GAE/ml, respectively. The IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; for DPPH scavenging activity of the infusion and decoction were similar; 6.82 and 7.28 &amp;mu;g GAE/ml, respectively.

Ethanolic extract of ChS aerial parts was administered at doses 50, 250 and 500 mg/Kg per oral. The protective effect was determined through weight controls, biochemical and hematological parameters; the antioxidant capacity by superoxide dismutase (SOD), nitric oxide (NO), malondialdehyde (MDA) and anti-inflammatory capacity by the level of C-reactive protein (CRP). The tumors were monitored by using histological examinations. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Oral administration of &lt;em&gt;Chuquiraga spinosa&lt;/em&gt; extract significantly decreased superoxide dismutase malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, C-reactive protein levels (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0,01, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0,01, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0,01 and &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0,01 respectively compared with Inductor group).

The two species &lt;em&gt;Achyranthes aspera&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Achyranthes bidentata&lt;/em&gt; are used interchangeably by people and by herbal industries due to their resemblance in appearance. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the comparative pharmacognostic and pharmacological properties of both species. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Pharmacognostic characters were evaluated as per the guidelines of Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India. A quantitative HPTLC method was developed for quantification of linoleic acid and oleanolic acid using toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid (6: 4: 0.5 v/v/v) as a mobile phase. Quantification was performed using linear regression analysis by plotting the peak area vs concentration curve with 2000-5000 ng/band (R&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.998) for oleanolic acid and 2000-5000 ng/band (R&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; = 0.994) for linoleic acid. The developed method was validated in terms of accuracy, recovery and inter and intraday study as per ICH guidelines. Antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts was estimated by five different models viz. DPPH free radical scavenging assay, total anti-oxidant capacity, reducing power assay, total flavonoid and phenol content. Anti-diabetic activity was analyzed by &amp;alpha;-amylase inhibition assay using 3, 5 di nitro salicylic acid and iodine starch model. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of oleanolic acid and linoleic acid were determined, respectively, as 0.426, 1.29 and 0.427, 1.29 &amp;mu;g mL&amp;minus;1. Inhibition of free radicals increases with concentration and IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of &lt;em&gt;A. aspera and A. bidendata&lt;/em&gt; was obtained at 1.35 &amp;plusmn; 0.173 mg/ml and 1.28 &amp;plusmn; 0.169 mg/ml respectively. In &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; antidiabetic activity, IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value shows that &lt;em&gt;A. bidentata&lt;/em&gt; exhibit better activity than &lt;em&gt;A. aspera.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study generates data for the proper establishment of quality control standards of the crude drug.&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%">309</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pushpendra Kumar Shukla, Ankita Misra, Sharad Srivastava&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;strong&gt;*&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The first group is fresh mushrooms and the second group is boiled mushroom then was dried in hot air oven at 45&amp;deg;C for 48 hr. Materials and Methods: The &lt;em&gt;S. commune&lt;/em&gt; was extracted with ethanol and then was evaluated the scavenging activity by DPPH and FRAP assay and Folin-Ciocalteau method was used to determine total phenolic contents. &lt;strong&gt;Statistical analysis used:&lt;/strong&gt; The data were recorded as means &amp;plusmn; standard deviations and analyzed by using SPSS version 21. The mean values of data were subjected to a oneway analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the significance of the difference between means was determined by the Tukey&amp;rsquo;s multiple comparison tests at 95% least significance difference (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt; &amp;lt; 0.05). Pearson correlation coefficient was used to determine the relationship between the antioxidant activity and total phenolic contents in sample extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In fresh mushroom group showed higher antioxidant activity and total phenolic contents than boiled mushroom group. When compared to a loss of antioxidant activity and total phenolic contents after boiling only the experiments with coconut water found that tender coconut water 50% of 5 ml has the lowest of loss in TEAC and total phenolic contents as 9.28% and 9.85% respectively. Mature coconut water 100% of 10 ml has the lowest of loss in FRAP as 2.77% and followed by tender coconut water 50% of 5 ml as 4.82% which were lower than control treatment but similar with synthetic hormone of 5 ml. The relationship between antioxidant activity and total phenolic contents of mushrooms was low in both groups. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; It concluded that tender coconut water 50% of 5 ml could maintain the antioxidant properties and total phenolic compounds in S. commune.&amp;nbsp;&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%">925</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chanate Wanna&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt; and Montarop Sudhadham&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

In addition, antioxidative stress (&lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt;) was performed using colitis rat models to study nitric oxide (NO), lipid peroxidation (LPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) compared with rats treated with prednisolone and cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Antioxidant activity of rice kefir powder from both assays had higher antioxidant activity than cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir powder. NO levels of colitis rats received Hawm Nil rice kefir powder (HNKP) was reduced when compared to phosphate buffered saline (PBS) group. Moreover, colitis rats received HNKP did not differ in NO levels from colitis rats that received prednisolone and non-colitis rats. The result of LPO product malondialdehyde (MDA) indicated that colitis rats treated with HNKP had reduced TBARS compared to PBS group, and did not differ in TBARS levels from rats that received prednisolone and non-colitis rats. Surprisingly, increase in SOD activity was observed in colitis rats that received HNKP compared to PBS, with similar results of increased SOD in rats that received prednisolone and cow&amp;rsquo;s milk kefir powder. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Hawm Nil rice kefir may offer a protective effect for antioxidative stress resulting from chemical induction; it has potential as a supplementary food with high antioxidant activity and is regarded as safe for consumer health.&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%">1061</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sirirat Deeseenthum&lt;sup&gt;1,2*&lt;/sup&gt;, Vijitra Luang-In&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;, Stephen Moses John&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;, Pheeraya Chottanom&lt;sup&gt;1,3&lt;/sup&gt;, Supaporn Chunchom&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It is a huge deciduous plant and widely distributed in the Central, Western and Southern regions of India. Role of&lt;em&gt; P. marsupium&lt;/em&gt; is found in Ayurveda, Homeopathic and Unani systems of medicine. It is a decent source of tannins and flavonoids hence, used as influential astringent, anodyne, cooling, regenerating agent and also used for the treatments of leprosy, leucoderma, toothache, fractures, diarrhea, passive hemorrhage, and dysentery, bruises and diabetes. It is also used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, gout, diabetic anemia, indigestion, asthma, cough, discoloration of hair, bronchitis, ophthalmic complications, elephantiasis and erysipelas. Researchers have been stated the presence of several phytoconstituents in &lt;em&gt;P. marsupium&lt;/em&gt; and also their pharmacological activities. The current review aimed to define the phytochemical and pharmacological aspects of &lt;em&gt;P. marsupium&lt;/em&gt; which will have been help in the researchers for further qualitative research.&lt;/p&gt;

The objective of this study is to investigate the potential of &lt;em&gt;Psoralea bituminosa&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;em&gt;Pbt&lt;/em&gt;.) in the management of diabetes and diabetic &amp;ndash; induced thermal hyperalgesia. Moreover, this study aimed also to investigate the volatile oil constituents of Pbt. growing in Lebanon utilizing GC-MS method. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Blood glucose level (BGL) was measured using gluco-meter while diabetic-induced thermal hyperplasia of Pbt. growing in Lebanon was measured using tail flick and hot plate methods. Antioxidant was measured using DPPH free radicals method. Volatile oil of fresh and dried aerial parts of &lt;em&gt;Pbt&lt;/em&gt;. was analyzed using GC-MS.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The result of study conducted on Lebanese &lt;em&gt;Pbt&lt;/em&gt;. revealed that acute anti-diabetic activity of &lt;em&gt;Pbt.&lt;/em&gt; in the 3 extracts subjected a decrease in BGL ranging between 34% to 38.5%. In subchronic anti-diabetic activity of Pbt. BGL dropped in range 19% to 44%. Moreover, Pbt. extract showed 1.7% to 13.6%increase in body weight at all doses with respect to 8&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; day. On the other hand, alloxan diabetic induced mice reported melioration by 63.8% to 86.3% on the 8th week alloxan after injection in diabetic &amp;ndash; induced thermal hyperalgesia hotplate latency method. Nevertheless, a marked improvement in tail flick latency on the 8&lt;em&gt;th&lt;/em&gt; week after alloxan injection by 22.7 % to 48.6 %. &lt;em&gt;Pbt.&lt;/em&gt; extract revealed DPPH radical decreases at 82.6% at concentration of 100 mg/mL, respectively. Total flavonoid content measured of Pbt. was 135.83 mg/g while total phenolic content showed 217.48 mg/g. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Psoralea &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;bituminosa&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt; showed a significant effect in the management of diabetes and neuropathic pain conditions and limiting expected side-effects, which might be used as a future antidiabetic therapy.&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%">841</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sara Al Ayoubi, Karim Raafat&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;,&amp;nbsp;Abdalla El- Lakany,&amp;nbsp;Maha Aboul-Ela &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Rotunda&lt;/em&gt; (5kg) was extracted exhaustively with ethanol. The ethanol extract was partitioned three times by n-hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate respectively. Each fraction was fractionated by vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) and then purified by column chromatography gravitation. Structural identification of all pure compounds were elucidated based on spectroscopic methods (UV, IR, and NMR).The antioxidant activity was tested by 2,2-diphenyl- 1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Antimicrobial character was screened for activities againts pathogenic bacteria i.e. &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli&lt;/em&gt; ATCC-11229, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC-25923, Staphylococcus epidermidis FNCC-0048, and Streptococcus mutans by the disk-diffusion method. The assay was done in triplicate, and chloramphenicol was used as the positive control. Results and &lt;strong&gt;Discussion:&lt;/strong&gt; From ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;B. rotunda&lt;/em&gt; three known compounds of flavanones, namely 2&amp;rsquo;,4&amp;rsquo;-dihydroxy-6-methoxychalcone (compound-1), 5-hydroxy-7- methoxyflavanone (compound-2), and 5,7-dihydroxyflavanone (compound-3) were isolated. The ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;B. rotunda&lt;/em&gt; and the three isolated compounds -1,-2, and -3 showed an antioxidant activity with the IC value of 92.64; 46.66; 62.84, and 62.66 &amp;mu;g/mL, respectively. The zone of inhibition of extract and the three isolated compounds showed moderate activity against &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli&lt;/em&gt; ATCC-11229, &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus&lt;/em&gt; ATCC-25923, &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus epidermidis&lt;/em&gt; FNCC-0048, and &lt;em&gt;Streptococcus mutans&lt;/em&gt;.The maximum zone of inhibition was 13.20&amp;plusmn;0.76 mm at the maximum concentration used (500 &amp;mu;g/mL) against &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli&lt;/em&gt; ATCC-11229, and the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) for each bacteria was found to be 0.5&amp;mu;g/mL. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The result of the study suggests that &lt;em&gt;B. rotunda&lt;/em&gt; rhizome contains potential bioactive compounds which could be suitable for antioxidant and the treatment of various infections caused by &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli&lt;/em&gt; ATCC-11229, &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus&lt;/em&gt; ATCC- 25923, &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus epidermidis&lt;/em&gt; FNCC-0048, and &lt;em&gt;Streptococcus mutans&lt;/em&gt;.&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%">513</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sri Atun&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Sri Handayani&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Anna Rakhmawati&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

However, few studies on its pharmacological effects have been documented. To elucidate whether there are more pharmacological effects of this plant, this study was therefore, carried out to determine the anti-hyperglycemic and anti-hyperlipidemic effects of 80% ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;H. cordata&lt;/em&gt; (HCE). Their antioxidant activity and acute toxicity were also conducted. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; HCE at a dose of 250 mg/kg was oral given to Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats daily for 8 weeks. DPPH assay and HCE at the doses of 1,000, 2,000 and 3,000 mg/kg were employed in antioxidant and acute toxicity studies. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; HCE lowered FBG in the diabetic, but not in the normal treated rats. HCE did not affect the body weight of all rats, but recovered TP, Alb, Glob, BUN, CREA, UA, TB, AST, ALT, ALP, and reduced the elevated CHO, TG and LDL in the diabetic rats. HCE possessed relatively low antioxidant activity with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 115.98&amp;plusmn; 0.82 &amp;mu;g/mL compared to Vitamin C (42.54+1.37 &amp;mu;g/ml), but did not produce any symptoms of acute toxicity. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; The extract of &lt;em&gt;H. cordata&lt;/em&gt; may have beneficial properties and is a new agent for diabetic treatment and improve renal and hepatic functions.&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%">382</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Patcharee Poolsil&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Wilawan Promprom, Chusri Talubmook &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It is also used in treatment of ring worm, eczema and microbial infections. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; To evaluate antimalarial activity of extract and fractions of &lt;em&gt;Borreria ocymoides&lt;/em&gt; in &lt;em&gt;Plasmodium berghei &lt;/em&gt;infected mice and to investigate their antioxidant activity using 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazile (DPPH). &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The methanol extract of aerial part of &lt;em&gt;B. ocymoides&lt;/em&gt; and the solvent fractions obtained from partition between organic solvents were assessed for antimalarial activity against chloroquine sensitive &lt;em&gt;Plasmodium berghei&lt;/em&gt; NK65 infected mice using the suppressive and curative test procedures. Chloroquine (10 mg/ml) was used as positive control. The antioxidant activity was evaluated using DPPH radical scavenging ability and determination of total phenolic content. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The crude extract (250 and 500 mg kg-1) produced a dose dependent anti-plasmodial activity in the suppressive and curative tests. The chemo suppression activity was best in the ethyl acetate fraction (87.31%) and in the order ethyl acetate &amp;gt;dichloromethane &amp;gt; hexane &amp;gt; aqueous fraction. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the extract increased with concentration. The antioxidant activity was less than ascorbic acid used as positive control. Oral administration up to 5 g/kg produced no noticeable deleterious effect 24 hours after dosing and up to 7 days afterwards. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results indicated that the extract has a potent anti-plasmodial activity against &lt;em&gt;Plasmodium berghei&lt;/em&gt; and the activity seems to reside in the mid-polar fractions. Thus, the plant is a potential source of new antimalarial 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%">534</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sunday Adeleke Adesegun&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Celestina Ifeoma Orabueze&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Herbert Alexander Babatunde Coker&lt;sup&gt;2 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The objective of the present study is to evaluate antioxidant and anti-hypercholesterolemic potential of &lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical screening of methanolic (VVME) and aqueous (VVAE) extract was carried out to identify the phytoconstituents. Antioxidant potential was evaluated by employing &lt;em&gt;in-vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; assays. The anti-hypercholesterolemic activity was evaluated by inducing hypercholesterolemia with high cholesterol diet for 21 days in experimental animals. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In VVME, total tannins, total flavonoids and total phenolic contents were found to be present in major amount. Both extract has significant &lt;em&gt;in-vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;in-vivo&lt;/em&gt; antioxidant efficacy. Different doses i.e. 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg of VVME and VVAE significantly attenuated the lipid levels. Moreover, VVME was found to be more effective as compared to VVAE and also, effectiveness was confirmed with histological results. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It can be concluded that antioxidant and anti-hypercholesterolemic efficacy of &lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; might be due to presence of antioxidant property and active phytoconstituents.&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%">807</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sushma Devi,&lt;sup&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/sup&gt;Randhir Singh&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Type 2 DM is the most common type in diabetic populations. Inhibition of alphaglucosidase can ameliorate postprandial hyperglycemia that occurs in patients with type 2 DM. Adding antioxidants to the therapy of DM is intended to reduce complications caused by oxidative stress. Some species of &lt;em&gt;Garcinia&lt;/em&gt; have been proven to inhibit alpha-glucosidase and have antioxidant activity, but there is no research on &lt;em&gt;Garcinia fruticosa&lt;/em&gt; Lauterb. Therefore, the aims of this research were to determine the activity of &lt;em&gt;Garcinia fruticosa&lt;/em&gt; Lauterb. stem bark in inhibiting alpha-glucosidase and as an antioxidant. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this research, the &lt;em&gt;Garcinia fruticosa&lt;/em&gt; Lauterb. stem bark was dried, grinded, and extracted by multistage maceration using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. Inhibition of alpha-glucosidase test has been done &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; on concentrated extracts and measured by microplate reader at 400 nm. The antioxidant test has been done using DPPH scavenging method and was measured by microplate reader at 519 nm.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Ethyl acetate extract is the most active extract for both test.

The antioxidant activity was evaluated using &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; DPPH assay. Total extract, methanol and EtOAc fractions were evaluated for their antiinflammatory activity using RAW 264.7 macrophages assay. Antidiabetic activity of the total extract was examined biochemically and histopathologically using streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; A new flavone, chrysoeriol 7-&lt;em&gt;O&lt;/em&gt;-&amp;beta;-(6‴-&lt;em&gt;O-acetyl&lt;/em&gt;-&amp;beta;-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1&amp;rarr;4) glucopyranoside (1), along with seven knowns (2-8) were isolated from &lt;em&gt;Cyperus laevigatus&lt;/em&gt; L. The structures of isolated compounds were established depending upon 1D, 2D-NMR and HR-ESI-MS. The MeOH and EtOAc fractions exhibited significant antioxidant activity while the isolated flavonoids exhibited from moderate to weak antioxidant activity. The total extract, MeOH and EtOAc fractions exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity using LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages model by decreasing of NO accumulation by 76 &amp;ndash; 66% and 84 &amp;ndash; 67%, of the original accumulation values with increasing concentrations in comparison with the reference drug, dexamethasone. The total extract exhibited antidiabetic activity in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and this effect was manifested by decreasing serum levels of glucose, glucagon and NO.

The objective of the present study is to evaluate antioxidant and anti-hypercholesterolemic potential of &lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical screening of methanolic (VVME) and aqueous (VVAE) extract was carried out to identify the phytoconstituents. Antioxidant potential was evaluated by employing &lt;em&gt;in-vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; assays. The anti-hypercholesterolemic activity was evaluated by inducing hypercholesterolemia with high cholesterol diet for 21 days in experimental animals. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; In VVME, total tannins, total flavonoids and total phenolic contents were found to be present in major amount. Both extract has significant in-vitro and in-vivo antioxidant efficacy. Different doses i.e. 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg of VVME and VVAE significantly attenuated the lipid levels. Moreover, VVME was found to be more effective as compared to VVAE and also, effectiveness was confirmed with histological results. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It can be concluded that antioxidant and anti-hypercholesterolemic efficacy of &lt;em&gt;Vitis vinifera&lt;/em&gt; might be due to presence of antioxidant property and active phytoconstituents.&lt;/p&gt;

Cytotoxic effect of MK extracts and fractions was evaluated by performing Sulphorhoda&amp;shy;mine B (SRB) assay and Flow cytometry analysis on U373MG cell lines. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Extracts and fractions of MK were found to possess significant antioxidant activity. In SRB colorimetric assay, the efficacy of MK against U373MG cell line was observed due to reduced viability of U373MG cells. Dose dependent significant increase in the percentage of dead cells was also observed. MEMK exhibited significant cytotoxicity than EEMK where&amp;shy;as EFMK and MFMK were not found to be significantly cytotoxic against U373MG cell lines. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the effective extract MEMK induces cell death in human glioblastoma cells through apoptotic mode of action. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The observed anticancer activity of &lt;em&gt;Murraya koenigii &lt;/em&gt;may be due to its antioxidant potential.&lt;/p&gt;

Rationale of pharmacological potentials of these plants are still unclear, even if few preliminary studies are available in literature for individual plants. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study was conducted for comparative assessment of antioxidant, antibacterial, and antidiabetic potential of &lt;em&gt;A. galanga &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;E. foetidum&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; The rhizome of &lt;em&gt;A. galanga &lt;/em&gt;and leaf of &lt;em&gt;E. foetidum&lt;/em&gt; were extracted in methanol, ethanol and water. Phytochemicals of each extracts of &lt;em&gt;Alpinia galanga&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Eryngium foetidum&lt;/em&gt; were analyzed. The antioxidant potential of all the extracts was assessed by measuring total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and free radical scavenging potential was assessed by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrilhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, antibacterial activity was assessed against various pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacteria &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; by Kirby-Bauer agar well diffusion method and antidiabetic activity was assessed by &amp;alpha;-amylase inhibition. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Both the plant showed presence of all the tested phytochemicals. It was observed that methanolic extracts of both the plants have higher phenolic content than ethanolic and aqueous extracts, however ethanolic extracts &lt;em&gt;E. foetidum&lt;/em&gt; shows higher flavonoid contents. Both the plant shows similar DPPH scavenging and metal chelating activity. It was also observed that the antidiabetic potential of &lt;em&gt;A. galanga &lt;/em&gt;is greater than &lt;em&gt;E. foetidum&lt;/em&gt;. The methanolic and ethanolic extracts of the plants shows quite similar and good antibacterial potential than the aqueous extracts.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The present study suggests that both &lt;em&gt;Alpinia galanga&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Eryngium foetidum&lt;/em&gt; plants of Manipur could be used as herbal remedies for the treatment of diabetes mellitus as well as managing oxidative stress and oxidative stress related disorders.&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;

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.

To test each fraction, we used the IC50 value previously obtained for the crude oils. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The phytochemical study of these essential oils showed that p-Thymol, Eucalyptol and Citronellal were respectively the major components in the three investigated EO of&lt;em&gt; O.compactum&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;R. officinal&lt;/em&gt; is and &lt;em&gt;P. asperum&lt;/em&gt;.

The presence of any therapeutic potential in HP was also determined by qualitative and quantitative estimation of phytochemicals along with free radical scavenging activity of various successive solvent extracts (based on their polarity). Thin layer chromatography (TLC) of the powdered HP was also done. The standard software SPSS (ver. 15.0) and XLSTAT 2009 (Addinsoft) and Smith&amp;rsquo;s Statistical Package were used for different statistical analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Powder microscopy of HP revealed the presence of calcium oxalate crystal, tracheids, stone cells etc. Various fluorescence colours were exhibited by HP on UV after reacting with different chemical reagents. The analysis values were also obtained in a satisfactory way. TLC and qualitative phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of some active phytoconstituents. Among all the solvent extracts, acetone, heptane, ethyl acetate and benzene extracts showed higher antioxidant potential. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results support the use of HP as a traditional medicine and further purification should be done for the identification of bioactive phytoconstituents responsible for its antioxidant 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%">348</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Arunika Subba and Palash Mandal* &lt;/strong&gt;Department of Botany, Plant Physiology and Pharmacognosy Research Laboratory, University of North Bengal, Siliguri, West Bengal, India.&lt;/p&gt;

The plant is widely used in folk medicine in Palestine; mainly in the treatment of cancer, diabetes and heart disease. Since no previous reports on bio activity of this plant in association with host plant specificity in Palestine, the current study aimed at evaluating bio activity of almond and olive variants of this plant. &lt;strong&gt;Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Methanolic extract of&lt;em&gt;viscum album&lt;/em&gt; cultivated from almond and olive host plants were tested for antioxidant, antimicrobial . Prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) were also used to assess anticoagulant activities of plant extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Result:&lt;/strong&gt; The result demonstrated that &lt;em&gt;Viscum album&lt;/em&gt; have an IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of 25.34&amp;plusmn;3.8&amp;mu;g/ml when hosted by olive while the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; was 15.37&amp;plusmn;2.2&amp;mu;g/ml when hosted by almond. Crude extracts of both &lt;em&gt;Viscum album&lt;/em&gt; plants showed strong inhibition effects on the growth of the studied Staphylococcus aureus strains (ATCC 25923 and MRSA) with a pronounced effect when extracts of almond host was used. However, the effects of both host extracts were very limited or absent when tested against Gram-negative reference and clinical strains. Plant extracts of both host showed prolonged PT and PTT compared to phosphate buffered saline control solution. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; In conclusion, variations in the bioactivity of &lt;em&gt;Viscum album&lt;/em&gt; is clearly influenced by host type and further studies required to illustrate such variations using other host plants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Viscum album&lt;/em&gt;, Antioxidant, Prothrombin time, Antimicrobial.&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%">117</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Murad Abualhasan&lt;sup&gt;*,a&lt;/sup&gt;, Nidal Jaradat&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;, Nael Abu-Hasan&lt;sup&gt;b&lt;/sup&gt;, Motasem Almasri&lt;sup&gt;b&lt;/sup&gt;, Adham Abu Taha&lt;sup&gt;c&lt;/sup&gt;, Ahmad Rabbaa&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;, Noor Natsheh&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;, Sajed Shalalfeh&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt; and Majdi Najib&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;strong&gt;d &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Department of Pharmacy, An-Najah National University, Nablus-Palestine&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;b&lt;/sup&gt;Faculty of Science, Department of Biology, An-Najah National University, Nablus-Palestine&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;c&lt;/sup&gt;Department of Bio-Medical Sciences, Division of Pharmacology and Toxicology, An-Najah National University, Nablus-Palestine&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;sup&gt;d&lt;/sup&gt;Pharmacy Directorate, MoH-Palestine.&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%">Harita Parikh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aparna Khanna</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pharmacognosy and Phytochemical Analysis of Brassica juncea Seeds</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%">Antioxidant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cytotoxicity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High performance Thin layer Chromatography</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">microscopy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenolics</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%">2nd July 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%">47-54</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;Introduction:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Brassica juncea&lt;/em&gt; is an economically important plant that has been well-known in India for centuries for its medicinal and nutritive values. The broad spectrum of beneficial effects of the seeds perceived with this plant warrants further exploration of &lt;em&gt;B. juncea&lt;/em&gt; seeds as a potential source for obtaining pharmacologically standardized phytotherapeutics, which could be potentially useful. The objective of the present study was to perform the pharmacognosy of mustards seeds inclusive of qualitative and quantitative phytochemical analysis, fingerprinting by infrared spectroscopy and high performance thin layer chromatography analysis and toxicity assessment &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Different sections of seeds were taken and stained with 0.1% phloroglucinol for microscopic examination. The seeds were extracted by 80% alcohol on a rotary shaker to perform phytochemical analysis and fingerprinting. The toxicity assessment of this extract was performed on human dermal fibroblast cells. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Microscopic examination of seeds showed characteristic features of mustard seeds. The extraction of these seeds by 20% alcohol resulted in IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; value of 103 &amp;plusmn; 3 &amp;mu;g/mL for 2,2-diphenyl-1-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) hydrazyl radical scavenging assay. The fingerprinting analysis of this extract indicated probable presence of sinigrin, quercetin, vanillin, catechin, vitamin E and sulfur-containing compounds. This extract exhibited 50% toxicity (IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt;) at 1.79 mg/mL. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The result achieved will be used to assess the therapeutic efficacy of seed extracts for future pharmacological evaluations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt; Antioxidant, cytotoxicity, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, high performance thin layer chromatography, microscopy, phenolics.&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;Harita Parikh, Aparna Khanna&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Department of Biological Sciences, School of Science, NMIMS University, Vile Parle (West), Mumbai, Maharashtra, 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%">Rukhsana A.

A diet rich in polyphenols and fibers helps in lowering cholesterol leading to less plaque formation, preventing blockage and risk of stroke. Owing to the fact that these polyphenols may reduce the elevated glucose the present research work was undertaken to extract the polphenols from &lt;em&gt;Chicory&lt;/em&gt; roots and evaluate their antioxidant and hypoglycemic potential. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Polyphenol rich fraction of root extract was subjected to estimation of total phenolic estimation and free radical scavenging activity using various antioxidant assays. The antidiabetic potential of the polyphenol rich fraction was also estimated using Alloxan Induced Diabetic Rat model. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The total phenolic content of the polyphenolic fraction was found to be 30.23&amp;mu;g/ml. The IC50 values for DPPH and ABTS assay for the polyphenolic fraction were found to be 60&amp;micro;g/ml and 4.2mg/ml respectively. The TEAC value was found to be 1.178 mm. Administration of polyphenol rich fraction (30 mg/kg, p.o.) decreased elevated SG from 122mg/dl to78.66mg/dl on 14th day (***p&amp;lt;0.001). Also a significant reduction in triglycerides (**P&amp;lt;0.01), total cholesterol (**P&amp;lt;0.01), serum LDL (**P&amp;lt;0.01) and serum alkaline phosphatase (**P&amp;lt;0.01) was observed at 30 mg/kg, p.o. However, serum HDL was found to be elevated with no change in serum insulin (*P&amp;lt;0.05).&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It can be concluded that the polyphenol rich fraction of &lt;em&gt;Chicory&lt;/em&gt; roots possess a strong hypoglycemic potential probably due to their antioxidant activity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Cichoriumintybus&lt;/em&gt;, polyphenols, antioxidant, antidiabetic, total cholesterol.&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;Rukhsana A Rub&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Areej Siddiqui, Aasmin M Ali, Asif Shaikh and Mushtaque Mukadam&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Department of Pharmacognosy, M.C.E.
