Cinnamomum tamala (Buch.-Ham.) T.Nees & Eberm., or Indian Bay Leaf, is a well-known traditional ayurvedic medicine used to treat various ailments. However, the molecular mechanism of action essential oil (CTEO) against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains elusive. The present study aims decipher targets and CTEO in treating NSCLC. GC-MS analysis detected 49 constituents; 44 successfully passed drug-likeness screening were identified as active compounds. A total 3961 4588...
The essential oil extracted from rhizome and leaf of Curcuma angustifolia Roxb. (Zingiberaceae) was characterised by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). GC-MS analysis revealed the presence 32 35 identified constituents, comprising 92.6% 92% total oil, respectively. Curzerenone (33.2%), 14-hydroxy-δ-cadinene (18.6%) γ-eudesmol acetate (7.3%) were main components in oil. In curzerenone (72.6%), camphor (3.3%) germacrone found to be major constituents. Antioxidant capacities assessed...
Inflammatory diseases contribute to more than 50 % of global deaths. Research suggests that network pharmacology can reveal the biological mechanisms underlying inflammatory and drug effects at molecular level. The aim study was clarify mechanism
Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is an economically important plant, valued all over the world. The existing variation among 16 promising cultivars as observed through differential rhizome yield (181.9 to 477.3 g) was proved have a genetic basis using different markers such karyotype, 4C nuclear DNA content and random amplified polymorphic (RAPD). karyotypic analysis revealed distribution of A, B, C, D E type chromosomes represented by karyotype formulas. A significant recorded in ginger...
The essential oils of three medicinally important Curcuma species (Curcuma alismatifolia, aromatica and xanthorrhiza) were extracted using conventional hydro-distillation (HD) solvent free microwave extraction (SFME) methods. volatile compounds from the rhizome subsequently analysed by GC-MS. isolation each was carried out following six principles green comparison made between their chemical composition, antioxidant, anti-tyrosinase anticancer activities. SFME found to be more efficient than...
Mesosphaerum suaveolens (L.) Kuntze (Syn. Hyptis Poit.) is a wild essential-oil-bearing plant having multiple uses in traditional medicine, perfumery, food, agriculture, and pharmaceutical industries. The present paper the first report on vitro anti-inflammatory effects of leaf essential oil M. (MSLEO) unravels its molecular mechanism LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. GC-MS analysis (EO) isolated from leaves by hydro-distillation led to identification 48 constituents, accounting for...
Cyperus rotundus rhizome is used in the traditional system of medicine to treat various diseases. The rhizomes this plant are traditionally as for treatments stomach pain, bowel disorders, and inflammatory pain. present study aims characterize chemical constituents C. essential oil (CREO) evaluate its possible mechanism action an anti-inflammatory agent by integrative approach gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), network pharmacology, molecular docking analysis....
Eulophia nuda Lndl., a terrestrial medicinal orchid, is well known for its ethnomedicinal applications in treating bronchitis, tuberculosis, tumors, snake bites, and arthritis. This study aimed to identify the phytoconstituents of extract (ENE) evaluate antioxidant, antityrosinase, anticancer, antimicrobial activities. UPLC‐QTOF‐MS analysis identified 33 compounds, 31 which were reported first time, with phenols, terpenoids, carboxylic acids as dominant classes. ENE exhibited strong...
Dipylidiasis is a zoonotic parasitic infestation caused by the dog tapeworm Dipylidium caninum. Human dipylidiasis has been rarely reported in English literature. Young children are mostly at risk of acquiring infection due to their close association with dogs and cats. We report rare case caninum 4 year old male child. The diagnosis was based on microscopic examination stool. Confirmation proglottid segments done histopathological examination. To best our knowledge this first human from...
Hedychium coronarium Koen. (Zingiberaceae) is traditionally used as medicine in countries such India, China, and Vietnam for treatment of various ailments including cancer. However, spite its implied significance cancer regimes, there are no reports so far involving the anticancerous attributes H, ethanol extract (HCEE) on cells a more comprehensive study mechanism still lacking.The cytotoxicity HCEE was evaluated by MTT clonogenic survival assay. Annexin V/propidium iodide (PI), Hoechst...
is an essential oil bearing plant extensively used in the traditional system of medicine several countries. Previous research has revealed
