Given their well-known lack of side effects in comparison to pharmaceuticals, natural materials with medical potential are rising in prominence in clinical research. Since the dawn of civilization, humans have relied on plants as a vital resource for healing. Medicines, health aids, pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements, cosmetics and other similar items derived from plants are becoming more popular. In this article, the chemical components and pharmacological effects of Tinospora cordifolia are described. “Guduchi,” a popular name for the plant T. cordifolia, has a long history of use in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. T. cordifolia, most often known as guduchi, is a prominent medicinal plant found across the tropics. The therapeutic benefits of this method are well recognized internationally. The advantages it has for your diet are less well-known. Native Indians and other Indians have long included guduchi [T. cordifolia (Willd.) Hook. F. Thoms] in their diets. It is also recommended for use in Ayurvedic diets. Interest in the plant has surged recently due to the identification of active components from the...

Wounds are a severe health problem. The development of pharmaceutical dosage forms to ensure patient comfort and safety and optimize treatment effectiveness is of great interest to the pharmaceutical and biomaterials industries. Tridax procumbens (T. procumbens) leaf is a medicinal herb used for treating wounds since ancient times. In this work, a biomaterial film was developed by using PVA with T. procumbens leaf extract via solvent casting method to produce effective wound healing material. According to the hemolytic investigation, films made from T. procumbens leaf extract films were biocompatible. Using L929 mouse fibroblast cells, the cytotoxicity of films was examined using the MTT assay, and the same cell line was also used for a migration assay using the scratch test. The results of the in-vitro wound healing test showed that films containing 12.5 ml T. procumbens dried leaf extract are efficient in reducing the scratch open area, provoking nearly complete closure of the scratches (94%) within 24 hr without cytotoxicity. The 12.5 ml incorporated film demonstrated better wound healing...

Male reproduction is controlled and coordinated by endocrine factors and therefore, even minute changes can able to interfere with the male fertility. Accumulation of data have shown that the humans are exposed to chemicals that can able to interfere with endocrine factors. Interestingly, published reports have shown that the continuous exposure to such chemicals occurs mainly due to their wide usage in a variety of personal care and daily products such as plastics, food, water, fertilizers, textiles, shampoos, toys and pharma drugs etc. In view of ongoing interest in exposure of humans to such agents and compromised male fertility, there is a major concern and attention towards the endocrine disrupting chemicals among the public, endocrinologists, andrologists and scientific community. These chemicals interfere with the endocrine functions via mimicking their structure, blocking the hormone receptor and/or function of genes and proteins that facilitate normal spermatogenesis and testosterone biosynthesis. The present review provides an overview of endocrine disrupting chemicals on male reproductive health with a special focus on thyroid hormone disrupting chemicals....

A wound is a breakthrough of skin; it disrupts the normal functioning of skin. So, the wound healing process is important to repair the skin. It restores the normal function and structure of the skin. There are several phases of the wound healing process: inflammation, re-epithelization, vascularization, and granulation tissue formation and maturation. The wound healing process can be studied using in-vitro and in-vivo methods. There are many in-vivo methods to study the wound healing process. In-vivo method uses laboratory animals for the study. Animals used are mice, rats, rabbits, and pigs. Recently, Zebrafish have been used as a model to study the wound healing process. Zebrafish are used because it has similar wound closure properties as mammalian embryos. The wound healing can be studied by amputating the caudal fin of fish and recording the regeneration of the fin on days 5th, 7th and 9th post-amputation. This study compares various wound healing agents with the market product (neomycin cream). The various wound healing agents used in this study are...

The most important risk factor for cardiovascular disease is high blood pressure, which accounts for around one-third of those who have it. A majority of those who have hypertension are not on antihypertensive medication. It is not a disease, but it is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Hypertension includes the intricate exchange of natural and pathophysiological factors that influence numerous frameworks, just as hereditary inclination. Investigation of patients with hypertension incorporates exact normalized blood pressure (BP) estimation, evaluating patients’ anticipated danger of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, declaration of target organ harm, location of auxiliary reasons for hypertension, and presence of comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease kidney infection. As a part of many risk factor reduction activities, combination drug therapy is as a well-established option for cardiovascular disease risk reduction. Over the past couple of years, there has been much research done on antihypertensive drugs and there have been many patents that can be beneficial for research purposes. A key element of discovering new drugs, advancing new drugs and assembling...
