Proteomic analysis of the effects of Girdin on Jiaogulan-treated type 2 diabetes patients.

Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) is a traditional herb with potential antidiabetic properties. This study investigated the underlying mechanisms of these properties by analysing plasma protein profiles in type 2 diabetes patients. A total of 42 participants were divided into three groups, each comprising 14 individuals: healthy controls (N), untreated type 2 diabetes patients (DM), and Jiaogulan-treated type 2 diabetes patients (DMJ).

Green-synthesized silver nanoparticles from Zingiber officinale extract: antioxidant potential, biocompatibility, anti-LOX properties, and in silico analysis.

Introduction: Zingiber officinale extract has emerged as a compelling candidate for green synthesis of nanoparticles, offering diverse applications across medicine, cosmetics, and nutrition. This study delves into the investigation of in vitro toxicity and explores the biomedical utility of green-synthesized silver nanoparticles derived from ginger extract (GE-AgNPs).

Methods: We employed established protocols to evaluate in vitro aspects such as antioxidant capacity, anti-inflammatory potential, and biocompatibility of GE-AgNPs.
