Objective: This study aimed to compare the effects of β-sitosterol nanoparticles (BETNs) and β-sitosterol (BET) on cognitive impairment, oxidative stress, and inflammation in a myocardial infarction (MI) rat model using in silico and in vivo methods.

Methods: β-Sitosterol (BET) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) ligand-receptor binding affinities were evaluated using Autodock Vina for docking and Gromacs for dynamics simulations. BET nanoparticles, prepared via solvent evaporation, had their size confirmed by a nanoparticle analyzer.

Article Synopsis
  • This study is about using leaves from medicinal plants to reduce waste and find ways to treat brain diseases, focusing on a compound called andrographolide (AG) found in Asian plants.
  • Researchers discovered that AG may help with epilepsy by increasing a chemical in the brain called GABA, which helps control brain activity.
  • To improve how AG works in the body, scientists created tiny particles (nanoparticles) of AG and tested them to see how well they protect against epilepsy in lab rats.
