The fruit of Euterpe oleraceae, commonly known as acai, has been demonstrated to exhibit significantly high antioxidant capacity in vitro, especially for superoxide and peroxyl scavenging, and, therefore, may have possible health benefits. In this study, the capacities freeze-dried acai pulp/skin powder (OptiAcai) were evaluated by different assays with various free radical sources. It was found exceptional activity against scavenging (SOD) assay, highest any food reported date measured...
On the basis of structures known topoisomerase II catalytic inhibitors and initial molecular docking studies, bicyclic N-fused aminoimidazoles were predicted as potential inihibitors. They synthesized by multicomponent reactions evaluated against human IIα (hTopoIIα) in decatenation, relaxation, cleavage complex, DNA intercalation vitro assays. Among 31 compounds eight different scaffolds, it was found that imidazopyridine, imidazopyrazole, imidazopyrazine with suitable substituents...

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of GutGard, an extract Glycyrrhiza glabra, in patients with functional dyspepsia. The primary outcome variables were change severity symptoms and global assessment efficacy. quality life evaluated as a secondary measure. received either placebo or GutGard (75 mg twice daily) for 30 days. Efficacy terms (as measured by 7-point Likert scale), efficacy, using short-form Nepean Dyspepsia Index. In...
Abstract Background and Objectives Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a fibroinflammatory disease causing functional injury. Abdominal pain the predominant symptom negatively impacting quality of life. The Comprehensive Pain Assessment Tool (COMPAT-SF) questionnaire, designed validated to assess in CP, was previously only available English Danish. Given high prevalence CP India, translating validating COMPAT-SF into different languages becomes crucial. Methods underwent translation three Indian...
Context: Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae) species are traditionally well-known for their medicinal properties including hepatoprotective activity.Objective: The study assessed the and antioxidant activities of 11 species, P. amarus Schumach., urinaria L., debilis Klein ex Willd, tenellus Roxb., virgatus G. Forst., maderaspatensis reticulatus Poir., polyphyllus Willd., emblica indofischerii Bennet. acidus (L.) Skeels.Materials methods: dried leaves stems each plant were extracted in methanol...
Diverse high energy diets have been utilized to precipitate obesity and related metabolic disorders in rodent models, though the dietary intervention has not absolutely standardized. The present study established usage of a customized semipurified normal control diet (NCD) fat (HFD), for research studies on diet-induced albino rats. Male Wistar rats were fed with pellet (NPD) or NCDs I, II, III HFDs 12 weeks parameters, namely, body weight, visceral adiposity, serum triglycerides,...
N. nucifera is one among the important medicinal plants assessed for its antiobesity action in various preclinical models. The present study was aimed at investigating effect of methanol and successive water extracts petals by studying on adipogenesis, adipolysis, lipase, serotonin (5-<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
The present study investigated anti‐stress potential of Ocimum sanctum in chronic variable stress (CVS) paradigm. Further, the possible mechanism was explored vitro using cell and cell‐free assays. Rats were administered O. followed by CVS regimen for a period 16 days. On days 4, 8, 12, 16, body weight immobility time forced swim test measured. In addition, inhibitory effect ursolic acid on cortisol release CRHR1 receptor activity studied cell‐based assays, while effects 11β‐hydroxysteroid...
