To obtain the benefits of omega-3, it is necessary to develop an efficient extraction method for patin oil (PO). This study aimed to develop the microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) method for fish oil from patin. Three independent variables with three levels were priorly evaluated using Box–Behnken design, including temperature (30, 60, 90°C), solvent composition (30, 60, 90% of ethyl acetate in methanol), and solvent to sample ratio (10:1, 15:1, 20:1). The significant variables were then optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). A second-order quadratic model of RSM suggested an extraction at 60°C with 56% ethyl acetate in methanol as an extraction solvent and a solvent-to-sample ratio of 20:1. A kinetics study under the optimum MAE conditions approved the complete recovery (38.84%) starting at 15 min of extraction time. The high precision of the MAE process was confirmed by the coefficient of variation less than 3%. Additionally, the microwave-produced fish oil was characterized by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to contain α-linolenic acid and eicosapentaenoic as omega-3. Henceforth, it has been demonstrated that microwave-assisted fish oil extraction developed in this study is efficient for high-quality PO production","PeriodicalId":19761,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Sciences Asia","volume":"104 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80511622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the molecular mechanisms driving these effects have not yet been investigated in brown adipose tissue (BAT). Thus, the present study aimed to investigate the beneficial effects of RRBE on BAT in mice with obesity induced by a high-fat diet (HFD). Six weeks after induction of obesity, the obese mice were fed continuously with HFD, with or without RRBE treatment for 6 weeks. Body weight and food intake were recorded weekly. At the end of the feeding experiment, BAT was collected for determination of expressions of genes associated with liporegulation, inflammation, and oxidative stress, as well as histological examination. Compared with untreated obese mice, RRBE-treated mice had reductions in body weight, food efficiency ratio, and white-like adipocytes in BAT, accompanied by down-regulated expression of nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group H member 3 (NR1H3). Moreover, RRBE decreased the levels of nitric oxide (NO), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in BAT, which were associated with modulated expressions of target genes for nuclear factor-kappa B and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2. RRBE produced beneficial effects against HFD-induced abnormalities in BAT by mitigating whitening, inflammation, and oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":19761,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Sciences Asia","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90059753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of metals in medicine is often associated with toxicity. Present study was conducted to explore the acute and sub-acute toxicity study of Abhrasindoora in Wistar albino rats. Information related to possible health hazards, the estimate of no-observe-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL), hematology, and biochemical and histopathology parameters were studied. For the acute toxicity study rats were divided into two groups: Group I (Test group: 300 mg/kg) and Group II (Confirmatory group: 2,000 mg/kg) as per OECD 423 guidelines and for subacute toxicity study, rats were divided into four groups as Group I (water as the vehicle), Group II (600 mg/kg), Group III (800 mg/kg) and Group IV (1,000 mg/kg) as per OECD 407 guidelines. Clinical signs (daily); body weight and feed consumption (weekly) were taken. Blood samples were collected from the retro-orbital sinus before the necropsy (29 th day). For statistical analysis, one-way ANOVA and Dunnett’s test were used. In comparison to the control group, no mortality or adverse effects were observed. No significant variations were observed in hematological and biochemical parameters. In target organs, no significant changes were observed in both acute and sub-acute toxicity studies.

A high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (VDD) and vitamin D insufficiency (VDI) has been noted in South Asian (SA) women of childbearing age despite the abundant sunshine. Therefore, this study aimed to systematically review the existing data from population-based studies in this region to summate the magnitude of the problem. Articles published and reported prevalence of VDD/VDI in eight South Asian countries during period of 2010-2020 were searched and screened from PUBMED and Google Scholar using PRISMA guidelines. The study population was healthy women of childbearing age (18-45 years) and included pregnant and non-pregnant women. Fourteen population-based studies were found from SA countries India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal. No studies were available from Afghanistan, Bhutan, and Maldives pertaining to the searched period. Participant groups were from diverse socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. The prevalence ranged from 61.5% from Pakistan to 100% from Bangladesh. This systematic review reported a significantly higher prevalence of hypo-vitaminosis D among SA women of childbearing age. Inadequate sun exposure, lack of consumption of good vitamin D food sources due to either illiteracy or economic constrains has been regarded as potential determinants of hypovitaminosis D among participants. The findings of this study would help pertinent stake holders to prepare suitable national level programs to enhance the Vitamin D status of women of childbearing age.","PeriodicalId":19761,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Sciences Asia","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79022125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ten isolates of P. aeruginosa were isolated from urine samples. Biofilm formation on polystyrene microtiter plates and Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of ofloxacin against all isolates were evaluated. The effect of sub-MICs of ofloxacin (0.5×MIC, 0.25×MIC, 0.125×MIC, and 0.06×MIX) on biofilm formation (to polystyrene) and adhesion to prepared human epithelial cells (HECs) in vitro was evaluated. The MICs of ofloxacin were lower than 64 µg/ml and all isolates produced biofilm. There was no relationship between the susceptibility of bacterial isolates to ofloxacin and biofilm formation (r:-0.11; P >0.05). It was found that all sub-MIC concentrations of ofloxacin reduced significantly the biofilm formation on polystyrene and adhesion to HECs in a concentration-dependent manner. Electron microscope images showed that the sub-MIC concentrations of ofloxacin prevent biofilm development to maturation.
