Article Synopsis
- - The rising global diabetic statistics indicate an urgent need for better treatment options, and this study focuses on evaluating the antidiabetic properties of Hura crepitans using multiple research methods.
- - The methanolic extract of Hura crepitans significantly lowered fasting blood sugar levels in diabetic rats and improved insulin levels while reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the brain.
- - In silico analysis highlighted effective compounds in the extract, showing great potential for drug-likeness and safety, which supports the extract's use for managing diabetes.
Objective: Anemia is a pathological condition characterized by reduced oxygen bioavailability and/or changes in hematological parameters. This study investigated the anti-anemic activities of (CP) phytoconstituents in aluminium-chloride-induced anemic rats.
Method: Twenty-seven rats were randomized into nine groups of three rats as follows; group 1 was the normal (non-induced) group, 2-9 were anemic rats administered 1 mL distilled water, standard drug (3 mg/kg body weight (bw) ferrous sulphate), 100, 300 and 500 mg/kg bw of crude methanolic extract of CP (CMECP) of the leaf and 100, 300 and 500 mg/kg bw of CMECP of the seed respectively in the first stage of the study.
Objectives: The use of medicinal plants for diabetes treatment is increasing owing to their effectiveness and safety compared to synthetic drugs. Thus, the ameliorative effects of (F. Hoffm.
