Promising effect of Geranium robertianum L. leaves and Aloe vera gel powder on Aspirin(®)-induced gastric ulcers in Wistar rats: anxiolytic behavioural effect, antioxidant activity, and protective pathways.

The effectiveness of traditional drugs for gastric ulcers (GU) is limited, so researchers looked at natural remedies such as Aloe vera and Geranium robertianum. They assessed their ability to protect against Aspirin®-induced GU in rats. The results suggest that these herbal extracts may be promising alternatives for the treatment of GU.

Cinnamaldehyde-Rich Cinnamon Extract Induces Cell Death in Colon Cancer Cell Lines HCT 116 and HT-29.

This study found that a cinnamon extract containing cinnamaldehyde has anti-cancer effects on colorectal cancer cells by inhibiting cell viability, proliferation, migration, inducing cell cycle arrest, causing mitochondrial stress, and activating apoptotic proteins.

Pulsatilla chinensis saponins ameliorated murine depression by inhibiting intestinal inflammation mediated IDO1 overexpression and rebalancing tryptophan metabolism.

Depression may be linked with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Researchers have found that intestinal inflammation might be a contributing factor to depression, but the exact cause is unknown. This suggests that new treatments for depression targeting the gut may be necessary.
