Review of essential oils (EOs) for treating skin conditions. Tea tree oil shows efficacy for acne, kānuka oil and frankincense for psoriasis/eczema. More research needed for ajwain, eucalyptus, and cedarwood oils. Quality and safety of EOs inconsistent, further studies required.
Study identified plant-based compounds as potential HSP90 inhibitors in breast cancer, showing promising antiproliferative effects. Further research is needed to understand their mechanism of action for innovative therapeutic strategies.
This study explores how essential oils can regulate microglial function to potentially mitigate neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. They suggest that certain components of essential oils may target specific signaling pathways involved in inflammation, offering a potential therapeutic approach for treating neurodegenerative diseases.
Reviewed effects of oats and barley on immune, inflammatory functions, and gut microbiota. Findings may guide dietary choices for immune health and gut microbiome modulation.
They used NIR to predict flavonoid, xanthine oxidase inhibitory, and antioxidant activity in Prunus mume. The model is effective for quick quantification and can be extended to other medicinal plants.
Researchers conducted a comprehensive review of studies on Artemisia argyi Folium (AAF). They identified 136 compounds, including new terpenoids and flavonoids. AAF shows potential for anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, antioxidant, and antibacterial effects. Quality criteria and pharmacokinetics need further study for clinical use.
Study on genus Prunus in India found 19 important species with nutritional and economic value. Newly discovered species shows potential for pharmacological research due to high phenolic content and therapeutic significance. The genus exhibits antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycemic properties, making it important for further study.
82 drugs targeting astrocytes show promise for treating cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, with potential to reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, edema, and more. Traditional Chinese medicines like Salvia miltiorrhiza, Ginkgo, and Ginseng are particularly promising.
