The excavation for new delegates into the chemotherapeutic family and modernization of existing candidates are evergreen goals of cancer researchers. It is quite interesting to make out that the plant kingdom has gifted us with an array of anti-cancer compounds, reporting over 60% of the drugs today coming out from natural sources such as plants, marine organisms, and micro-organisms. With the evolution of modern analytical tools, the chemical composition of active principle in each of the plant parts is being elucidated, and more plants are being analyzed for their pharmacological application and nominated to the list of medicinal plants. Members of the Verbenaceae family, such as Clerodendrum infortunatum crowns in medicinal values tricked with a worthless treasure of phytochemical constituents, many of which remain mysterious. This paper reviews the different aspects of Clerodendrum infortunatum concerning its phytochemical constitution, traditional usage, and potential possibilities in the treatment and prevention of cancer. The source materials were browsed from Pubmed and Google by word search for Verbenaceae, Clerodendrum, Cancer, etc. Clerodendrum infortunatum,...

Three analytical methods were developed for the determination of selected fluoroquinolones in chicken meat by high performance liquid chromatographic technique. In each method, we took two fluoroquinolones (Danofloxacin and difloxacin; Ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin; Ofloxacin and pefloxacin) research study. Rapid, simple and sensitive sample treatment procedures were developed and used to extract the fluoroquinolones from the chicken tissues with good recoveries. Extraction recovery from chicken tissues was in the range of 86.96 to 97.49 %, depending upon the analytes. The shape of the curves for all drugs was linear in the investigation concentration range 10-1000 ng/ml, and the correlation coefficient of the linearity curves for all drugs was in the range of 0.9707- 0.9991. The detection limits for fluoroquinolones in chicken tissues were well below the Maximum Residual Limits (MRLs) for antibiotics. The limit of detection (LOD) was in the range of 9-12 µg/kg, and the limit of quantification (LOQ) was in the range of 30-40 µg/kg for all analytes in chicken tissues. The separation results and parameters of the...

This study aimed to determine for taste masking & design of Oro dispersible tablet of an anticholinesterase agent (Donepezil HCl) to achieve the patient compliance. Oral dispersible tablet prepared by compression method. The Anticholinergic activity assure by evaluation, drug dissolution, stability testing and standardize the oral dispersible tablet. On the basis of the preformulating and formulation study, the batch 10-F009 formulation would maintain stability and potency throughout the study period. Complete drug release was observed at gastric pH. Taste masking and rapid disintegration of tablets formulated in this investigation may possibly help in the administration of Donepezil HCL in a more palatable form without water. Finally, this formulation with once-daily dose is convenient for patients with the Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia with good therapeutic activity and...

In spite of huge investigations, the pathology of Alzheimer’ sdisease (AD) is uncertain. Vessels dysfunction is a critical mark of AD. Research has stated like beta-amyloid (Aβ) results augmented vascular development in brains, a pathway observed in AD patients. In AD, cerebral endothelium releases pro substances for β-amyloid plaque and neurotoxins that kill cortical neurons. Vascular vulnerable features and neural, vascular dysfunction related through hypo or hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus, smoking, oxidative stress, and iron overload have been invented to play essential parts in the pathogenesis of stroke and AD. Antiangiogenic agents and small molecule kinase blockers are being examined and approved for anticancer therapy and showed normal blood vessel growth in the affected areas. Endothelial cells (EC) are triggered by the angiogenesis of cerebral ischemia and hypoxia. Outcomes of epidemiological research show that chronic administration of NSAIDs, statins, H2 antihistamines, or calcium-channel blocker sappearstoavert AD. This is mainly due to the ability of the drugs to prevent angiogenesis. Many previous reviews on pathogenesis on AD have explained neuronal...

Rabies is a fatal viral disease which is caused by negative sense, single-stranded RNA virus belonging to Rhabdoviridae family of genus Lyssavirus, Rabies Virus (RABV). It is transmitted by the bite of a rabid animal and directly affects the CNS of the host (neurotropic). Sources of human rabies deaths are dogs (99%), cats, bats, etc. Rabies holds the seventh position in the world for causing the most severe infections that result in the death of an organism. India lies on the top in the number of affected individuals with rabies. Our aim in this study is to analyze the interactions between the RABV and its human host and to develop novel therapeutic strategies to combat this deadly disease. Further analysis of the predicted protein-protein interactions can help us design strategies against clinical manifestations of the disease in humans. An in-silico approach has been adopted because computational approaches play a vital role in providing an important tool in further investigation of host-pathogen...
