Study tested if peppermint essential oil enhanced physical performance in runners until exhaustion. Results could inform use of peppermint oil as performance-enhancing aid.
Researchers used network pharmacology and docking analysis to explore the potential of Arjuna in treating congestive cardiac failure (CCF). They identified several active compounds in Arjuna that target specific genes and signaling pathways, suggesting its potential as a preventive treatment for CCF.
Study found that water extract (SNWE) can potentially kill MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cancer cells by causing mitochondrial dysfunction. Promising natural agent for cancer treatment.
Scientists studied a new plant to see if it could be used to prevent and treat neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Care because it could lead to new treatments.
The study investigated the effects of a herbal medicine, BCAE, on chondrocytes in osteoarthritis. BCAE promoted cell viability, reduced extracellular matrix degradation, and inhibited the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway, potentially protecting chondrocytes from degeneration.
This study investigated blanching temperatures on Dawrach leaves. Blanching significantly affected the plant's proximate, phytochemicals, antioxidant activity, and anti-nutrients. Blanching decreased moisture content and reduced antioxidant activities as temperature increased. Blanching also led to a reduction in oxalate and tannin levels in Dawrach leaves.
The study investigated the effects of the herbal medication L. on breast cancer cells. Results showed that L. significantly reduced cell proliferation, induced cell death, and suppressed migration and colony formation. The findings suggest that L. may be a potential treatment for breast cancer, but further research is needed.
This study focuses on the gene sequence of the RBCL gene in an underutilized perennial tree. The data provides valuable insights into the genetic diversity and evolution of the species, aiding scientists, breeders, and conservation efforts.
