The ethanol extract of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi attenuates complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflammatory pain by suppression of P2X3 receptor.

Researchers investigated the effects of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (SGE) on inflammatory pain. SGE extracted from the herb showed anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, potentially making it useful for treating inflammation-related diseases. However, more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms.

Cytotoxic and molecular evaluation of spilanthol obtained from Acmella oleracea (L.) R. K. Jansen (jambu) in human gastric cancer cells.

A study investigated the anticancer activity of jambu, a plant found in the Brazilian Amazon. The hydroethanolic extract of jambu was obtained, and its active compound, spilanthol, was isolated. The extract and spilanthol both exhibited cytotoxicity against gastric cancer cells. Furthermore, molecular docking experiments revealed that spilanthol has inhibitory potential against JAK1 and JAK2 proteins. These findings suggest that jambu extract and spilanthol could be potential candidates for the treatment of gastric carcinoma.
