High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) Methods for Simultaneous Estimation and Quantification of Vasicine, Gallic acid, Piperine and Pterostilbene from Two Ayurvedic Formulations and Herbal Extracts
Background: High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) is an advanced analytical technique used for the identification and quantification of marker compounds in Ayurvedic formulations. Aims and Objectives: The purpose of this study is to create and validate an HPTLC method for the simultaneous estimation and q
Targeted Neurotherapeutics: A Review of Bacopa monnieri Delivery Strategies for Neurodegeneration
Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and Autism lead to Central Nervous System (CNS) degeneration, impairing both cognitive and motor functions. With the rising prevalence of these illnesses-closely linked to age and lifestyle factors-effective therapeutic strategies that can cr
Deep Eutectic Solvent as Green Alternative Solvents for Polygodial Extraction with Validated HPLC-UV Analysis and Evaluation of their Bioactivities
Introduction: Akway (Tasmannia piperita), a native Papua plant is known for its benefits as stamina enhancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant agents, which can be associated to polygodial, its marker compound. Green alternative solvents for polygodial extraction are required. Objectives: In this study, an HPLC-UV metho
Chemically Synthesized Urolithin-C Regulates Glucose Uptake in HepG2 Cells
Background: In recent years, the prevalence of diabetes has increased dramatically worldwide. Although several drugs are available for its management, their severe cytotoxic effects have created a need for safer and more effective alternatives. Urolithins (A, B, C, D, M5, M6, and M7) have gained attention due to their
GC-MS Analysis of Bioactive Phytocompounds in Polyherbal Formulation Extracted Ointment Used in the Management of Wound Healing
Background: The scientific validation of traditional as well as proprietary Ayurvedic formulations is crucial for the purpose of healing of wound in chronic non healing wounds. Polyherbal Formulation Extracted Ointment, a proprietary formulation made up of Water-soluble extracts of Nirgundi patra, Amalaki Bark and Bhri
Black Cumin (Nigella sativa) as a Natural Food Preservative: GC-MS Profiling and Antimicrobial Activity against Spoilage Microorganisms
Background: Nigella sativa, also referred as black cumin and described as the miraculous herb, exhibits many medicinal and pharmacological properties. Objectives: This research focused on the antimicrobial effectiveness of different N. sativa Seeds (NSS) extracts against spoilage microbes and phytochemical analysis of
An Amalgamated in silico Approach to Screen Lipid Lowering Herbs towards Developing Antilipidemic Polyherbal Formulation
Background: Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) is largely caused by hyperlipidemia, characterized by high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Standard treatments like statins face limitations such as intolerance and poor adherence. This study uses amalgamated in silico techniques to screen and identify pot
Modulation of KEAP1/NRF2-Regulated Anticancer Chemopreventive Signalling Pathways by Anacardic Acid in MCF7-ARE Human Breast Cancer Cells
Background: Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer worldwide, with an escalating burden over the past decades. Anacardic Acid (AA), a phenolic lipid extracted from cashew nutshell, displays diverse therapeutic properties including anti-tumor effects. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the anticancer effec
Daidzein Attenuates Allergic Asthma via NF-κB1 Downregulation and Cytokine Modulation: A Comprehensive Preclinical Evaluation
Background: Bronchial Asthma (BA) is a chronic inflammatory airway disorder strongly associated with immune system dysregulation. Daidzein, a natural isoflavone found in soy, exhibits well-documented anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities, including inhibition of dendritic cell maturation and regulation of e
Green-Synthesized Tribulus terrestris-Mediated CuO Nanoparticle-Loaded CS/PVA Hydrogels: A Multifunctional Platform for Cancer Therapy and Antidiabetic Applications
Objectives: In this work, we report on the preparation of CuO nanoparticles using extract from Tribulus terrestris as a natural reducing and stabilizing agent, followed by the loading of the nanoparticles into the Chitosan/Poly (vinyl alcohol) (CS/PVA) hydrogel in order to design a multifunctional system for treating c
