Curcumin, the turmeric key ingredient responsible for this function, was discovered over two centuries ago. Curcumin exerts its effects via altering a number of crucial molecular targets, including transcription factors, enzymes, cell cycle proteins and cytokines according to modern science. Curcumin is currently used to treat a variety of disorders, including psoriasis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, Crohn’s disease, arthritis, and cancer. The history of curcumin in India as well as its traditional uses have been covered in this review. An overview of the possible health advantages of curcumin is also included in this paper. Further research on curcumin is required in order to examine additional areas and its real-world therapeutic uses for...

Indian spices and medicinal herbs are well known throughout the world. Both have many different physiological and pharmacological characteristics. The current biomedical research is mostly concentrated on finding chemicals extracted from natural sources that are pharmacologically efficient and have little to no side effects for application in food production and preventative medicine. Pepper (Piper nigrum) is a common spice found in both Eastern and Western cuisine. It helps in digestion and weight loss by encouraging the breakdown of fat cells and has a remarkable antioxidant and antibacterial impact. Numerous independent researchers have conducted experiments that show pepper and its main ingredient, piperine, to have a variety of physiological effects. In-vitro studies have shown that piperine can prevent oxidative damage by suppressing or inhibiting harmful free radicals and oxygen compounds that are reactive. Apart from anti-oxidant property, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-diarrheal, antispasmodic, antidepressant, immunomodulatory, anticonvulsant, anti-thyroid, antibacterial, antifungal, hepato-protective, insecticidal, and larvicidal activities are just a few of the potential pharmacological effects of Piper nigrum L and its active component, “Piperine,”....

This systematic review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in liquid crystalline nanoparticles (LCNs) utilized for transdermal drug delivery systems. Recent literature indicates a surge in research emphasizing lipid carriers derived from glyceryl monooleate and monoolein. The inherent nanostructure of LCNs offers superior solubilization capacity for bioactive molecules and controlled release mechanisms. This study underscores the potential of the cubic phase in LCNs as an innovative avenue for sustainable Transdermal Drug Delivery Systems (TDDS). Recent studies highlight the growing interest in cubosomes and hexosomes. Critical analysis necessitates further exploration into the therapeutic efficacy of Alpha lipoic acid cubosomes for anti-wrinkle applications, and the viability of hexagonal phase nano dispersions for in vivo peptide and siRNA delivery. A bibliometric assessment points out China as the leading contributor to LCN-centric publications. To summarize, LCNs are poised as potent TDDS, warranting future exploration in live skin imaging and immunological evaluations in animal model studiesproperties thus increasing residence time of drug with better patient...
