Previously, its leaves extract has been demonstrated antibacterial activity. However, there is limited information on identification of pure compounds responsible for its observed antibacterial activity. Therefore, this study was conducted to isolate and evaluate antibacterial activity of pure compounds isolated from its leaves extract. Colum chromatographic separation of its dichloromethane leaves extract afforded the isolation of two sterols namely, Cholest-7-en-3β-ol (1) and β-sitosterol (2). Their structures were deduced by using NMR data experimentally obtained and comparison with spectral data available in literatures. The sterols were evaluated for activity against four nosocomial infectious bacteria namely; Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa to determine Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) by broth microdilution method. Cholest-7-en-3β-ol (1) demonstrated strong activity against S. aureus (MIC= 0.5 mg/ml) and weak activities (MIC >2mg/ml) against other bacteria. β-sitosterol (2) exhibited weak activities (MIC >2mg/ml) against all tested bacteria. Therefore, presence of antibacterial active compound(s) such as Cholest-7-en-3β-ol (1) among others in the leaves of C. swynnertonii can justify its earlier reported antibacterial activity and further confirms the claimed traditional uses of this plant in the treatment of bacterial infections.","PeriodicalId":22851,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Phytopharmacology","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73079043","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}

Objective: In this study, we investigated the anti-secretory effect of aqueous leaf extract of H. rosea as the possible mechanism for its antiulcer activity in gastric ulcer induced rats. Methods: 40 rats were divided into 2 experimental phases of 20 rats each. They were further separated into 5 groups as follows: Group 1 (Normal control: rat chow and water only). Group 2 Ulcer control: Indomethacin-induced (40mg/kg bw). Group 3: Low dose (100mg/kg bw). Group 4: Medium dose (200mg/kg bw). Group 5: High dose (300mg/kg bw). Phase 1 involved determination of ulcer lesion index and % inhibition. Phase 2 involved estimation of gastric acid secretion using the method of continuous perfusion with 10minutes aliquots titrated against 0.01N NaOH. Results: Aqueous extract of Hypoestes rosea produced a significant (P<0.05) dose-dependent decrease in ulcer lesion score with an accompanying increase in percentage inhibition at the various doses used in the study (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg bw). Also, there was a significant decrease in basal and histamine-induced acid secretion at all doses with the greatest effect observed at the high dose (300mg/kg bw). Conclusion: Results obtained showed that aqueous extract of H. rosea decreased gastric acid secretion possibly due to inhibition of Histamine receptors and may thus be the mechanism for its anti-ulcer activity.","PeriodicalId":22851,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Phytopharmacology","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73724696","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}

Exposure to heat-stress can result in decreased yield and poor, watery consistency of milk. Here, the results of an efficacy trial of a polyherbal antistressor premix at reducing summer stress-associated milk yield losses in dairy cows are reported. 12 healthy lactating Gir cows in early to mid of first to third lactations were randomized to one of two groups. The first group was left unsupplemented while the second group received supplementation with a polyherbal anti-stressor (Stresomix™ premix, M/s Ayurvet Limited, India) for seven days. Daily milk yield was recorded over a 30 days’ period of moderate heat stress (THI = 81.9). Protein and fat content of milk and serum cortisol levels were also measured at specific intervals. The polyherbal antistressor-supplemented group T1 showed significant improvements in milk fat content, fat-corrected milk yield, and serum cortisol levels over the untreated control group T0, attesting the efficacy of the polyherbal antistressor supplement in heat-stressed dairy cows. Based on the results of the study, the polyherbal antistressor, Stresomix premix, at 1 Kg/tonne of feed for 7 days, was found efficacious for the reduction of stress and improvement of milk fat content in dairy cows under summer stress.","PeriodicalId":22851,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Phytopharmacology","volume":"93 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80533875","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 present study evaluates the ameliorative effects of its leaves extract on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced organs’ damage. This was done to provide a cost-effective and potent therapeutic option in the management of multi-organ disorders. Twenty Wistar rats were placed into five groups (I-V) of four animals each. All experimental animals, except group I were administered a single intraperitoneal dose of CCl4 (3 ml/kg b.w.). Animals in groups III and IV were treated with B. vulgaris at 200 mg/kg b.w. and 400 mg/kg b.w. respectively, group V animals received 100 mg/kg b.w. silymarin after initial exposure, while group II animals were left untreated after initial exposure to CCl4. Specific markers of liver, kidney and heart injury such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), catalase, glutathione peroxidase, urea, creatinine, bilirubin and cytokines were assayed in the serum and tissue homogenates. Results indicate that carbon tetrachloride caused a significant increase in the serum level of AST, ALP, ALT, LDH as well as bilirubin, urea and inflammatory cytokines relative to control. On the other hand, activity of glutathione peroxidase and catalase were diminished following exposure to CCl4. However, treatment with the B. vulgaris extract restored to all deranged biochemical indices to values comparable with animals treated with silymarin. Histopathological evidence lends credence to the ameliorative potential of B. vulgaris leaf extract on damaged liver, heart and kidney. Hence, B. vulgaris can be considered a viable therapeutic agent for the management/treatment of renal, cardiac and hepatic diseases.","PeriodicalId":22851,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Phytopharmacology","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88711106","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}

Neuropathologically, AD is characterized by low level of acetylcholine, loss of synapses and neurons in certain brain regions, accumulation of extracellular amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) and phosphorylation of intracellular tau protein. Patients with AD are characterized by various symptoms such as memory deficits, depression, cognitive dysfunction and difficult to perform daily activities. Currently available drugs for the treatment of AD are used to treat symptomatic relief at an early stage, however the prolonged usage of the drugs may cause adverse side effects. To overcome this, development of drugs produced from natural products is considered as one of the promising alternatives for the treatment of AD. Among that heterocyclic compound play a major role in the development of therapeutic drugs against various disorders. An organic compound which is cyclic or non-cyclic consists of one or more atoms in their ring structure are known as heterocyclic compounds. These heterocyclic compounds occur both in natural and synthetic form and play a major role in the metabolism of all living cells. Most of the organic compounds used as drugs have a heterocyclic core in their skeleton. Nitrogenous bases such as purines and pyrimidines present in DNA, chlorophyll, vitamins contain heterocycle in their structure. Other compounds containing heterocycles are proline, morphine, furan, vinblastine, cephalosporin, penicillin etc. This review summarizes the nomenclature, classification, and the role of heterocyclic compounds in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.","PeriodicalId":22851,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Phytopharmacology","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87330261","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}
