Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Inflammation is a biological process in response to injury, resulting in altered blood flow, increased vascular permeability, tissue destruction, and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammatory mediators. Zygophyllum simplex L., a medicinal plant traditionally used in the Arabian Peninsula for inflammatory disorders, has demonstrated promising in vitro anti-inflammatory activity due to its phenolic content.

Introduction: Reprogramming of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and their differentiation into specific cell types, such as induced sensory-like neurons (iSNs), are critical for disease modeling and drug testing. However, the variability of cell populations challenges reliability and reproducibility. While various protocols for iSN differentiation exist, the development of non-iSN cells in these cultures remains an issue.

The literature does not provide any "high-performance thin-layer chromatographic (HPTLC)" techniques for the determination of a novel antidiabetic medicine, ertugliflozin (ERZ). Additionally, there are not many environmentally friendly analytical methods for ERZ measurement in the literature. A rapid, sensitive, and eco-friendly reversed-phase-HPTLC (RP-HPTLC) method was designed and validated in an attempt to analyze ERZ in marketed pharmaceutical tablets more precisely, accurately, and sustainably over the traditional normal-phase HPTLC (NP-HPTLC) method.

Article Synopsis
  • This study is the first to profile the metabolites of a wild desert plant from the Amaranthaceae family using LC-QTOF-MS/MS, identifying 66 known compounds including catecholamines, phenolic acids, and a novel tyramine derivative.
  • The research addresses taxonomical challenges within the genus by providing insights into the plant's chemical fingerprint and its phylogenetic relationships with other species.
  • The methanolic extract of the plant showed antibacterial properties, with a minimum inhibitory concentration ranging from 32 to 256 μg/mL, and significantly reduced biofilm formation and violacein production, attributed to specific compounds binding to a transcriptional activator.
