Polyphenols, a diverse group of naturally occurring compounds found in plants, have garnered significant attention for their potential therapeutic properties in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). The Wnt/β-catenin (WβC) signaling pathway, a crucial player in neurogenesis, neuronal survival, and synaptic plasticity, is involved in several cellular mechanisms related to NDs. Dysregulation of this pathway is a hallmark in the development of various NDs.

Article Synopsis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease affecting synovial joints, often linked to environmental factors and genetics, characterized by both joint and extra-articular symptoms.
  • The review explores the therapeutic potential of natural products in managing arthritis through three methodologies: in-silico analysis identifies molecular targets, in-vivo studies assess safety and effectiveness in reducing inflammation, and in-vitro studies examine cellular interactions and signaling pathways.
  • Overall, the study suggests that natural compounds could serve as valuable adjuncts to traditional RA treatments, highlighting their anti-inflammatory properties and the need for further research to enhance their therapeutic benefits.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on creating environmentally friendly zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using leaf extracts from Fioria vitifolia, promoting a sustainable method for nanoparticle production.
  • Characterization techniques such as UV-Vis, FTIR, XRD, TEM, and SEM confirmed the properties of ZnO NPs, revealing their shape, size (average 11 nm), and antibacterial activity against different bacteria, notably showing significant inhibition against E. coli and S. aureus.
  • The synthesized ZnO NPs also displayed antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties, with a low toxicity profile observed in zebrafish embryos, indicating their potential for biomedical applications.

The physicochemical properties of the physiological makeup and the chemical componentof the system make this challenging throughout strenuous procedure. The current review concentrated on in silico modelling of drug disposition, involving absorption process, distribution process, and excretion process and includes thorough knowledge of various database expeditions, the development of a pharmacophore model, molecular docking studies, homology modelling supported sequence similarity and quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR)/ quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) evaluation along with all information about drug movement and related computational tools for understanding potential chemical and pathophysiological changes. The primary development in ADMET modeling in current times has been the clarification of the function and effective modeling of various transporters.

Several medicinal plants have the potential to be a promising alternative pharmacological therapy for a variety of human illnesses. Many insects, including mosquitoes, are important vectors of deadly pathogens and parasites, which in the world's growing human and animal populations can cause serious epidemics and pandemics. Medicinal plants continue to provide a large library of phytochemicals, which can be used to replace chemically synthesized insecticides, and utilization of herbal product-based insecticides is one of the best and safest alternatives for mosquito control.

Efficacy assessments using a combination of baricitinib and methotrexate necessitate the development of an analytical method for the determination of both drugs in plasma with precision. A high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of baricitinib and methotrexate in rat plasma. Extraction of baricitinib, methotrexate, and tolbutamide (internal standard; IS) from 50 µL of rat plasma was carried out by protein precipitation with methanol.
