We investigated the anti-diabetic effects of the ethyl acetate fraction of and its isolated compounds using both and study models. tests showed that the ethyl acetate part of and its separate compounds had better activity blocking α-glucosidase, α-amylase, and α-lipase. The ethyl acetate fraction and its active constituents, barbaloin and gallic acid, significantly ( < 0.01) normalised blood glucose levels and serum biochemical parameters compared to those of STZ-induced controls. Both barbaloin and gallic acid exhibited maximum glucose-lowering effects in diabetic rats. Ethyl acetate fraction, barbaloin, and gallic acid also showed a significant increase in serum insulin and restoration of the biochemical and antioxidant status of STZ-induced diabetic rats. Therefore, the ethyl acetate fraction of , barbaloin, and gallic acid demonstrated remarkable anti-diabetic activity in STZ-induced diabetic rats.

Evaluation of the Therapeutic Potential of the Methanolic Extract and Fractions of Datura stramonium in Paracetamol-intoxicated Rabbits.
Curr Pharm Des

Department of Horticulture and Life Science, Yeungnam University, Republic of Korea.
Introduction: Datura stramonium (DS) possesses strong medicinal and therapeutic potential but has been rarely evaluated in this context.
Methods: The present study was intended to evaluate the antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective potential of the crude methanolic leaf extract and ethyl acetate, chloroform, n-hexane, and aqueous fractions of DS in paracetamol-intoxicated rabbits. Paracetamol (2 g/Kg BW) was applied to induce liver and kidney injury in rabbits while the methanolic extract and fractions of DS were applied in the dose range of 150 mg/Kg to 300 mg/Kg body weight for 21 days.
Surveillance of soil-transmitted helminths and other intestinal parasites in shelter dogs, Mississippi, USA.

In recent years, soil-transmitted helminthiases, including strongyloidiasis have become a prominent public health concern in the southeastern United States of America (USA). While there is ongoing human soil-transmitted helminths (STH) surveillance in Mississippi and Alabama, very little attention has been paid to potentially zoonotic STH from dogs in this region. We microscopically examined faecal samples collected from 252 shelter dogs in Mississippi using the formalin-ethyl acetate sedimentation method.

Background: Anti-angiogenesis or inhibition of blood vessel formation is the best way to prevent the growth and metastasis of tumors. Natural sources like plants are currently being explored for its antiangiogenic activity as they are factories of various phytochemicals. The goal of the current study is to investigate the antiangiogenic potential of () by using chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay and molecular docking.
