Osbeckia parvifolia, an endemic edible plant of Western Ghats, was investigated in the present study for its polyphenolic compounds, including content, constituents, extraction through an ultrasonic-assisted maceration technique and therapeutic potential in biomedical applications. The methanolic extract (OPM) exhibited an IC value of 1.25 μg/mL against 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals.

Inhibition of breakdown of dietary carbohydrates, by controlling the postprandial activity of diabetic enzymes through fruit polyphenolics can help downregulate the effects of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The study focuses on deciphering the induction of hyperglycaemic control by bio-accessed anti-oxidative polyphenols of Cucumic dipsaceus fruits. Chiefly, we examined the antioxidant activity of bio-accessed polyphenols of C.

Article Synopsis
  • NIH identifies 128 cancer types with lung cancer being the top cause of death globally, highlighting the need for effective treatments.
  • This study aims to discover therapeutic targets for lung cancer by analyzing 39 microarray datasets, revealing a significant number of up-regulated (6229) and down-regulated (10324) genes, with SPP1 pinpointed as a key candidate.
  • Virtual screening of 198 compounds revealed two promising drugs, secoisolariciresinol diglucoside and Hesperidin, which showed promising binding affinity to SPP1, suggesting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.
