Flavonoids are organic compounds characterized by a range of phenolic structures, which abundantly present in various natural sources such as fruits, vegetables, cereals, bark, roots, stems, flowers, tea, and wine. The health advantages these substances renowned, initiatives being taken to extract the flavonoids. Apigenin, galangin, hesperetin, kaempferol, myricetin, naringenin, quercetin seven most common belonging this class. A thorough analysis bibliographic records from reliable...
Millettia peguensis, popular for its ethnopharmacological uses, was employed to evaluate different pharmacological properties in this study. The analgesic studies of the plant have been performed by acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin-induced licking tests respectively, whereas antidiarrheal experiment done castor oil-induced diarrheal test. Besides, antioxidant, cytotoxic, antimicrobial, thrombolytic evaluations were DPPH scavenging with phenol content determination, brine shrimp...
Introduction: Colocasia affinis Schott (Family: Araceae), found in the Asian region, is a traditional root vegetable consumed by locals and well-known as Dwarf Elephant Ear. Methods: For pharmacological exploration of this vegetable, four kupchan fractions (i.e. HSF, DCMSF, EASF, AQSF) from ethanolic extract C. were employed to vitro i.e. antioxidant, cytotoxicity, antimicrobial vivo antidiarrheal analgesic assays, followed phytochemical screening GC-MS protocol. Result Discussion: In...
Background: Shirakiopsis indica (Willd)., commonly known as Sa-Mor-Ta-Lay in Thailand, is a mangrove plant belonging to the Euphorbiaceae family.As plants' medicinal potentials are less explored, this study sought qualitatively and quantitatively verify bioactive components of fruits methanolic extract (SIF-ME) at side its analgesic, antiinflammatory anti-oxidant effects followed by in-silico studies.Methods: The in-vivo assessments analgesic activity involved hot plate test, acetic...
Background: Cheilocostus speciosus (J. Koenig) C. Specht, commonly known as “Crepe‐ginger”, is a traditional plant with edible flowers utilized in folk medicine. This study employs crepe‐ginger to evaluate their role boosting liver immunity, hepatoprotective actions through oxidative stress management. Methods: flower’s methanolic extract (CSF‐ME) was subjected In‐vitro anti‐oxidant effects were evaluated using DPPH and ABTS in‐vivo by catalase (CAT) assays which ameliorated CCl4‐induced...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a condition characterized by excessive blood sugar levels, which have recently reached the level of pandemic. There are various side effects each drug to treat this condition. Molecular docking modern concept for computer-aided designing. Using technique several potential antidiabetic phytocompounds evaluated against three target receptors including GLUT-3, PPARγ and α-amylase related DM. These compounds' ADMET drug-likeliness characteristics also been assessed...
Bauhinia scandens L. (Family, Fabaceae) is a medicinal plant used for conventional and societal medication in Ayurveda. The present study has been conducted to screen the chemical, pharmacological biochemical potentiality of methanol extracts B. stems (MEBS) along with its related fractions including carbon tetrachloride (CTBS), di-chloromethane (DMBS) n-butanol (BTBS). UPLC-QTOF–MS implemented analyze chemical compounds stems. Additionally, antinociceptive anti-inflammatory effects were...
ABSTRACT Bangladesh is endowed with an abundance of excellent medicinal plant resources. A well‐known traditional Piper chaba H. from the Piperaceae family rich in bioactive phytochemicals that have antidiarrheal, antimicrobial, analgesic, antioxidant, anticancer, and cytotoxic effects. This locally known as “Chuijhal,” stem used spices. In current research program, stems P. were selected its chemical biological investigations such analgesic effects performed. Moreover, docking models...
The first appearance of COVID-19 from Wuhan, China, has now showed up with changed variants, resulting in millions fatalities, billions job losses, and remarkable economic damage by spreading across the world. It been consistently evolved into more severe categories its newfangled fast-spreading mutant variants while entering second year. Among eleven (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Delta Plus, Epsilon, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda), recently Plus variant is becoming dominant version this...
Tamarind or Tamarindus indica L. is a multipurpose plant distributed throughout the tropics including Bangladesh. The present study was conducted to establish preliminary antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and thrombolytic activities of methanol extract T. seeds along with its Kupchan fractions. To evaluate antioxidant properties, total phenolic content determined expressed in gallic acid equivalent (GAE). Alongside, DPPH free radical scavenging assay performed ensure properties...
<title>Abstract</title> Background <italic>Colocasia esculenta</italic> (L) Schott, known as the taro vegetable, possesses various beneficial effects and is traditionally used in folk medicine. This study explores ameliorative anti-oxidant hepatoprotective effect of a methanolic extract flower (ME-CEF) against oxidative damage hepatotoxicity mice. Methods The antioxidant efficacy ME-CEF was assessed using ABTS DPPH scavenging assay. investigated by an assessment liver injury indicators (ALT,...
Clitoria ternatea L. (CT) is a perennial herbaceous plant with deep blue flowers native to tropical Asia. This work explores the endometrial pain (EP) regulation of CT flower through multifaceted approach. Phytochemical screening unveiled presence alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, glycosides, and tannins in methanolic extract (ME). In vitro membrane stabilizing experiment, ME demonstrated 91.47% suppression heat-induced hemolysis. Upon carrageenan-induced paw edema assay conducted on male...
