Abstract Background Recent reports have highlighted the significance of plant bioactive components in drug development targeting neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Thus, current study assessed antioxidant activity and enzyme inhibitory aqueous extract Talinum triangulare leave (AETt) well molecular docking/simulation identified phytonutrients against human cholinesterase activities. Methods In vitro assays were carried out to assess 2,2- azinobis...
Humans in modern society are exposed to an ever-increasing number of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and some studies have demonstrated that these waves can alter brain function but the mechanism still remains unclear. Hence, this study sought investigate effect 2.5 Ghz band radio-frequency (RF-EMF) exposure on cerebral cortex acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity their mRNA expression level as well locomotor anxiety-linked behaviour male rats. Animals were divided into four groups namely;...
Plant based phytonutrients have been recommended as an alternative in the management of diabetes mellitus (DM), a metabolic disorder that has recognized threat to humans across globe. The current study therefore, sought appraise probable antioxidant and antidiabetic potentials methanolic fraction Annona muricata leaf (MetOHAm) via inhibition carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes such α-amylase α-glucosidase, well analyze for available bioactive components using GC–MS technique. quantification...
Introduction: This study appraised the antioxidant potentials, mineral compositions, and antidiabetic activities of pap water (aqua) extract (PWE) aqueous (AE) from Ocimum gratissimum. Methods: The total phenolic contents (TPC), flavonoid (TFC), ferric reducing powers (FRAP), Fe2+-chelating abilities, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging enzymes inhibition potentials PWE AE O. gratissimum were evaluated. Additionally, determined using absorptive absorbance...
This study was designed to put into consideration both the in vitro and vivo investigations on Talinum triangulare (Tt), an herbaceous perennial plant that is a native of tropical America one most important vegetables Nigeria.Total phenolic contents (mg GAE/100 g), flavonoid contents, ferric reducing antioxidant properties (FRAP), 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl free radical scavenging ability (OH-) iron chelating were carried out using standard described methods while GSH,...
This study evaluated the inhibitory effect of ethyl acetate fraction Solanum macrocarpon L. leaves on cholinergic, monoaminergic, purinergic enzyme activities and identification bioactive compounds. 2,2-azino-bis-3-ethylbenthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS), metal ion chelating radicals scavenging activity, total phenolic flavonoid contents were determined using standard methods. The effects S. specified enzymes spectroscopically. Ethyl showed a high ABTS radical activity activity. phenol...

Plant phytonutrients have been harnessed for their various curative properties both in vitro and vivo. In this study African black velvet tamarind (ABVT) fruit pulp was evaluated it antioxidant potentials using chloroform hexane fractions through different parameters. the results; total phenolic contents quantified mg GAE/dried sample extracts were; 14.57 ±5.85 9.78 ±4.61, flavonoid as; 48.58 ±0.00 27.35 while FRAP (µg AAE.g-1 dried sample) lower (298.10 ±0.00) than (1029.81 ±0.00). More...
The alarming rate of diabetes mellitus (DM) globally is bothersome and has drawn the search light researchers on naturally endowed phytonutrients being an alternative in managing menace. Therefore, current study was designed to investigate some antioxidant parameters embedded extract Dialium indium (DI) fruit pulp also, elucidate its antidiabetic potentials through inhibition two key carbohydrate-metabolizing enzymes such as α-amylase intestinal α-glucosidase. Hydro-ethanolic DI used for...
The advent of Wi-Fi connected high technology devices in executing day-to-day activities is fast evolving especially developing countries the world and hence need to assess its safety among others. present study was conducted investigate injurious effect radiofrequency emissions from installed brains young male rats. Animals were divided into four equal groups; group 1 served as control while groups 2, 3, 4 exposed 2.5 Ghz at intervals 30, 45, 60 consecutive days with free access food water...
Aluminum toxicity has become a reason for concern in recent times. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of hesperidin and gallic acid aluminum chloride (AlCl3)-induced nephrotoxicity rats. Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into six groups five animals apiece. Group one served as control received distilled water while lasted. Animals 2-4 AlCl3 (100 mg/kg/day) throughout study. 3 4 administered 100 mg/kg/day hesperidin, respectively, addition AlCl3. Groups 5 6 treated with...
