Basic Science and Pathogenesis.

Background: Parkinson's disease is a hypokinetic disorder characterized by selective loss of dopaminergic in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNPc) region of mid-brain. Dopaminergic degeneration of neurons is considered to be due to oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, neurons mitochondrial dysfunction and glutamate excitotoxicity etc. Inosine a purine nucleoside has been reported to produce anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuromodulatory actions in previous studies.

Histopathological changes in various organs in electrocution deaths.

Death due to electrical injuries are a major health concern and has a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Electrocution death is defined as that occurring due to passage of electric current inside the body and is obviously a form of unnatural death. The cause includes ventricular fibrillation, paralysis of respiratory muscles and the central respiratory centre.

Flavonoids and other constituents from Jacaranda mimosifolia: In vitro analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamic simulations of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

The investigation of the methanol extract of the flowers of Jacaranda mimosifolia led to the isolation and characterisation of fourteen secondary metabolites (1-14) by the means of chromatographic and spectroscopic analysis. These compounds include eight flavonoids sorted as two flavonols (1-2), three flavones (3, 7-8), and three isoflavones (4, 9-10), two glucoiridoids (5-6), and four triterpenoids sorted as one oleanane (11), one hopane (12), and two lupane (13-14). The in vitro antioxidant potential of all the isolated compounds was evaluated using the ABTS- and FRAP- methods, which demonstrated concentration-dependent activity.

The Effect of Physical Activity on Premenstrual Syndrome: A Systematic Review.

Background: Physical, emotional, and behavioural symptoms that can significantly impact daily life are the hallmarks of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), a common illness affecting women of reproductive age. There are many different ways to manage PMS, and there is mounting evidence that physical activity may be helpful in reducing symptoms. With an emphasis on different exercise modalities such as weight training, yoga, and aerobic activity, this systematic review attempts to investigate how physical activity affects the management of PMS symptoms.

Assessment of inhibitory potentiality of natural compounds against worrisome rice blast fungus.

Rice blast, a severe fungal disease, is a substantial threat to global food security, particularly in rice-oriented areas. The fungus is increasingly resistant and fast developing in nature. However, chemical fungicides are not only detrimental to the environment but eventually also lose their efficiency.
