Chinese herbal extracts show promise in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease by improving memory and reducing inflammation. These extracts have potential for early AD treatment due to their fewer adverse effects and ease of consumption.
Isabella grapes contain phenolic compounds that have beneficial effects on human health, including potential anti-breast cancer properties. A study conducted in Colombia used ultrasound-assisted extraction to obtain a crude extract with antioxidant properties and high polyphenol content. The extract induced a decrease in the viability of breast cancer cells by affecting mitochondrial function and increasing reactive oxygen species. Molecular docking simulations also suggested that the phenolic compounds could interact with proteins involved in apoptosis. These findings highlight the potential of Isabella grape phenolic compounds as adjuvant chemopreventive agents for breast cancer treatment.
Chinese medicine Sanguisorba officinalis L. extract (ESO) accelerates diabetic wound healing by reducing inflammation through blocking NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway. Promising treatment option.
Tanshinone IIA, found in Salvia miltiorrhiza, shows potential in delaying the progression of diabetes kidney disease, but further research is needed to understand how it works.
In this research, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were synthesized using leaf extract as the reducing and capping agent. The formation of Ag NPs was confirmed by UV-vis spectrophotometry, and the nanoparticles had a spherical morphology with a size range of ∼30-50 nm. The synthesized Ag NPs exhibited potential anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activity, showing cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Furthermore, the Ag NPs acted as an excellent photocatalyst, degrading environmentally polluted Basic Fuchsin dye in just 18 minutes. This research demonstrates the potential applications of green-synthesized Ag NPs in various fields.
