Decoding the role of the gut microbiome in gut-brain axis, stress-resilience, or stress-susceptibility: A review.

Increased exposure to stress is associated with stress-related disorders, including depression, anxiety, and neurodegenerative conditions. However, susceptibility to stress is not seen in every individual exposed to stress, and many of them exhibit resilience. Thus, developing resilience to stress could be a big breakthrough in stress-related disorders, with the potential to replace or act as an alternative to the available therapies.

Antioxidant, Anti-Tumour, and Anticoagulant Activities of Polysaccharide from (APK2).

The initial structural features and in vitro biological study of crude polysaccharides from (CICP) extracted by hot water followed by ethanol precipitation was investigated. High-performance gel permeation chromatography, HPLC-DAD, UV, IR and NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Congo red methods were used to determine structural features. The results revealed that CICP is a hetero-polysaccharide with a molecular weight of 9.

A new approach against Helicobacter pylori using plants and its constituents: A review study.

Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative, spiral-shaped bacillus that colonizes 50% of the world population and is considered a class 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization. This pathogen is the most common cause of infection-related cancers. Apart from cancer, it also causes several gastric and extra gastric diseases.

for Disorders Affecting Brain: Current Perspectives.

Bacopa monnieri (BM) is of immense therapeutic potential in today's world. This review is aimed to project the beneficial role of BM in disorders affecting the brain, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, epilepsy, and depression. The active constituents and metabolites responsible for the effects of BM could be bacoside A and B, bacopaside I and II, bacopasaponin C, betulinic acid, asiatic acid, loliolide, ebelin lactone, and quercetin.

Targeting a conserved pocket (n-octyl-β-D-glucoside) on the dengue virus envelope protein by small bioactive molecule inhibitors.

Dengue virus enters the cell by receptor-mediated endocytosis followed by a viral envelope (DENVE) protein-mediated membrane fusion. A small detergent molecule n-octyl-β-D-glucoside (βOG) occupies the hydrophobic pocket which is located in the hinge region plays a major role in the rearrangement. It has been reported that mutations occurred in this binding pocket lead to the alterations of pH threshold for fusion.
