One well-known technique for identifying the main constituents that can result in the development of trustworthy therapeutic agents is the evaluation of pharmacokinetics from the plant's resources. Since ancient times, ethnomedicine has been documented as being used in India's traditional medical systems. Therefore, this thorough review aims to look into the worldwide documentation of ethnomedical uses of various plant part extracts against whooping coughs, as well as the taxonomic distribution of medicinal plant species, methods for preparing remedies, and documented reports from various Indian states. Throughout this review, a total of 89 plant species are recorded from 41 families and 70 genera. This review also documented that Saussurea sp., Solanum sp., and Cassia sp. are the superior plant species that are applied to treat whooping cough disease in different states of India. Asteraceae is also the superior family, under which most ethnomedicinal plants are applied to treat whooping cough. This document outlines the traditional treatments for colds and whooping cough in various Indian provinces. According to the review, India has the greatest amount of ethnomedical evidence supporting using plant extracts as a therapy for whooping cough. This is why it is important to assess and document these valuable plant parts as well as the processing techniques of ethnomedicine plants so that the focus can be on their preservation and sustainability.","PeriodicalId":488131,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":"68 2","pages":"131-146"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://journals.uni-lj.si/abs/article/download/19348/17949","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147889567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identification of compounds using GC-MS showed that Quercetin (28.56147%) and Caffeic acid and Kaempferol (9.275864 and 9.94034%) were the highest and lowest of phenolic compounds respectively, Moreover 1,2-dideuterio-1-deuteriooxy-N-methyl-1-phenylpropan-2-amine; hydrochloride (28.56147%) and Pseudoephedrine (10.67333%) were the highest and lowest of alkaloid compounds. Treatment of infected onion plant with cyanobacterial extract significantly reduced the increase of malondialdehyde and hydrogen peroxide. Also, severity of pathogenicity with Alternaria porri was significantly reduced to 20-50% by applying the 15 and 20 mg/ml of cyanobacteria extract.\u0000Conclusion: In conclusion, extracellular metabolites of cyanobacteria extract have potential as effective fungicides to control purple blotch disease of onion.","PeriodicalId":488131,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":" 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141676483","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}

Strategies for skin and gut microbiome modification, such as microbiome transplantation and oral or topical application of probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics, offer promising solutions for different skin disorders. Bacteriophages, viruses that target bacteria, also provide an alternative microbiome manipulation platform. However, despite the promising initial results, further investigation is essential to unravel the underlying mechanisms, assess efficacy, and ensure safety across diverse populations, as the interplay between microbial communities and skin health is very complex. In the transformative era of microbiome manipulation techniques, it is important to ensure that these are applied beyond the realms of scientific exploration and benefit the global advancement of skin health. \u0000This review aims to capture the increasing volume of research in this field that reflects a growing interest and dedication to advancing our understanding of microbiome manipulation techniques with potential applications in dermatology. It represents an overview of the possibilities of treating skin diseases via microbiome modulation, focusing on two of the most common inflammatory skin diseases of today: acne and atopic dermatitis.","PeriodicalId":488131,"journal":{"name":"Acta Biologica Slovenica","volume":"27 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140714568","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}
