is a globally recognized staple food, rich in essential phyto-phenolic compounds such as γ-Oryzanol (OZ), Ferulic acid (FA), and Ellagic acid (EA). These phytochemicals are known for their potential to beneficially modulate molecular biochemistry. The present investigation aimed to evaluate the neuroprotective and cognitive enhancement effects of phyto-phenolics in a model of early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) induced by Aβ (1-42) in animals.

Lung cancer is one of the most prevailed cancer worldwide. Many genes get mutated in lung cancer but the involvement of EGFR, KRAS, PTEN and PIK3CA are more common. Unavailability of potent drugs and resistance to the available drugs are major concern in the treatment of lung cancer.

Sporadic Alzheimer's disease (SAD), an age-associated dementia, is described as neuronal loss and marked cognitive impairment. Ellagic acid (EA) is a phenolic phytoconstituent obtained from grains and fruits, having evident antioxidant effects and known to modulate several endogenous molecular signals in humans in a beneficial way. The current study evaluated the safety profile of EA in the SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line, performing anti-oxidative effect by DPPH assay, and evaluating anti-AchE (acetylcholinesterase) effect against AchE enzyme from Electrophorus electricus.

In recent years, naturally occurring phytochemicals with antioxidant capacity have generated surmount interest in their therapeutic usage against a wide range of pathological and toxicological conditions. The present study was designed to evaluate potential of ɣ-oryzanol (OZ), a bio-active natural antioxidant against hepatocellular carcinoma effect of the carcinogen N-nitrosodiethylamine in Balb/c mice. OZ inhibited the proliferation of Hep-3B cell line in concentration dependent manner.
