A comprehensive perspective of traditional Arabic or Islamic medicinal plants as an adjuvant therapy against COVID-19.

This study explores the potential of Traditional Arabic or Islamic medicinal plants as adjuvant therapy for COVID-19. Six medicinal plants with antiviral and immunomodulatory properties were studied, suggesting they could be used to control symptoms and possibly lead to a COVID-19 medicinal synthesis. However, further evaluation is advised before using these plants as therapy. No evidence-based medication to combat COVID-19 currently exists despite multiple vaccine strategies.

Computational Evaluation of Azadirachta indica-Derived Bioactive Compounds as Potential Inhibitors of NLRP3 in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease.

The search for alternatives to amyloid-β (Aβ) drugs for Alzheimer's disease (AD) has led to the NLRP3 inflammasome as a potential target. This inflammasome is involved in innate immunity and neuroinflammation, contributing to AD pathophysiology. Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome may offer a new avenue for AD therapy.
