Oxidative stress and inflammation are key components in cardiovascular diseases heart dysfunction. Herein, we evaluated the protective effects of (+)-taxifolin (TAX), a potent flavonoid with significant antioxidant anti-inflammatory actions, on myocardial oxidative tissue injury, inflammation, cell death, using mouse model isoproterenol (ISO)-induced acute injury. Mice were given TAX (25 50 mg/kg, orally) for 14 days before receiving two subsequent injections ISO (100 s.c.) at an interval 24...
Taxifolin (TA) is a natural flavonoid found in many foods and medicinal plants with well-documented antioxidant anti-inflammatory properties. Cyclophosphamide (CP) an effective antineoplastic immunosuppressive agent; however, it associated numerous adverse events, including hepatotoxicity. Herein, we aimed to investigate the potential protective effects of TA using mouse model CP-induced Mice were co-treated (25 50 mg/kg, orally) CP (30 i.p.) for 10 consecutive days sacrificed 24 hours...
Conjunctivitis is considered as a common infection of ocular surfaces. Eye drop most commonly used for treatment conjunctivitis, but has some drawback like 95% drug eliminated after administration. Administration levofloxacin to the anterior site in form chitosan coated poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (LFV-CS-PLGA-NPs) expected overcome these problem and increasing corneal contact time permeability effective bacterial conjunctivitis. The Nanoparticles were developed by single...
Herbal drugs are being used by traditional systems of medicine in liver damage. Thus, the designed objective was to evaluate hepatoprotective activity ethanolic extract Pterocarpus marsupium Roxb. leaves (EEPM) against paracetamol-induced damage (PILD) SD rats. Group-I rats were administered with 1 ml 1% CMC/kg b.wt per day for 8 days. Group-II body wt. till 7th day, then 3 g paracetamol/kg on eighth day. Groups-III, IV and V animals pretreated 200 mg EEPM/kg/day, 400 100 silymarin/kg/day...
Emerging investigations have indicated that many plant polysaccharides may be beneficial for treating metabolic diseases. To date, the therapeutic efficacy and potential toxicity of extracted from Clinacanthus nutans (C. nutans) remain unexplored. This study investigated in vivo acute subacute oral toxicological profiles highest doses C. bioactive (CNBP) leaves using conventional methods. The total 39 healthy 8–10 weeks male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 3) were randomly assigned to control (C),...
Chitosan derivatives are reported as anticoagulants in the literature. This work was undertaken to develop novel chitosan anticoagulants. The sulfonated of were formed by reaction with chlorosulfonic acid N,N-dimethylformamide. structures these established FTIR and 1H NMR spectra. prepared evaluated for their vivo anticoagulant effects tail bleeding method Wistar rats utilizing nicoumalone a standard drug. results revealed that sulfonation increases its activity. developed compounds...
Star anise (Illicium verum Hook. fil.) is commonly utilized as a culinary and medicinal fruit most famous in indigenous systems of medicine. The present research work aims to appraise validate the potential polyphenol-rich star tea (SAT) on oxidative stress, obesity related biochemical parameters high-fat-sugar-diet (HFSD)-induced model rats. SAT was prepared using traditional method warm water. Reverse Phase High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) analysis performed for simultaneous...
In the present research study, we formulate bilosomes (BMs) of diclofenac (DC) for oral delivery enhancement therapeutic efficacy (anti-inflammatory disease). The BMS were prepared by thin film hydration method and optimized Box−Behnken design (BBD) using cholesterol (A), lipid (B), surfactant (C), bile salt (D) as formulation factors. Their effects evaluated on vesicle size (Y1) entrapment (Y2). DC-BMs-opt showed a 270.21 ± 3.76 nm, PDI 0.265 0.03, efficiency 79.01 2.54%. DSC study result...
Geraniol (GER) is a plant-derived acyclic isoprenoid monoterpene that has displayed anti-inflammatory effects in numerous vivo and vitro models. This study was therefore designed to evaluate the antiarthritic potential of GER complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflammatory arthritis (IA) model rats. IA induced by intraplantar injection CFA (0.1 mL), week after administration, rats were treated with various doses methotrexate (MTX; 1 mg/kg) or (25, 50, 100 mg/kg). Treatments given on...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder causing immense suffering for the patients. Dopamine D2 and 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A (5-HT1A) receptors' activation has been reported to play crucial role in managing neurological outcomes brain other health disorders. This study aimed investigate of aripiprazole, dopamine 5-HT1A selective activator, restoration memory deficit induced by streptozotocin mice. The cognitive functions animals were determined using...
Background: The research is aimed at exploring the potential of marigold petal tea (MPT), rich in polyphenol contents, against oxidative stress and obesity a rat model following high‐fat‐sugar diet (HFSD). Methods: MPT was prepared through customary method decoction subjected to analysis for its composition using reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography (RP‐HPLC). Two specific doses MPT, namely, 250 500 mg/kg body weight (BW), were chosen study—referred as MPT‐250 MPT‐500,...
