Therefore, the aim of this present research study is to prepare various plant extracts and screen their antioxidant activity spectroscopically, and later on to isolate antioxidant biomarkers from the significantly highest active crude extract of the aerial parts of <em>S. aegyptiaca.</em> To attain the present objectives, different crude extracts were prepared from the aerial parts of <em>S. aegyptiaca</em> by using a maceration method. The antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of the prepared aerial crude extracts of <em>S. aegyptiaca</em> were determined by 2,2-diphenyl-1-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and brine shrimp lethality (BSL) methods, respectively. All the prepared aerial crude extracts of the particular plant at six different concentrations showed significant antioxidant activity against the DPPH. The ethyl acetate crude extract showed the highest antioxidant activity, and the lowest activity was in the butanol extract. However, all the aerial crude extracts of <em>S. aegyptiaca</em> were prepared at different concentrations did not show any activity against the BSL method. Based on the antioxidant activity results, the ethyl acetate extract was selected for the isolation of antioxidant compounds. The extract was purified using column chromatography by using different solvent ratios. A series of test tubes were collected with a volume of 3 mL and depending on the similar retention mobility (R_f) behavior, a total of twelve fractions were prepared. Similarly, the antioxidant activity of the obtained twelve fractions from column chromatography was determined by the same DPPH method. All the fractions showed significant antioxidant activity. Among the fractions from the column, fraction 6 gave the highest antioxidant activity and the lowest was fraction 1. In conclusion, all the aerial extracts showed promising activities against DPPH and the fraction with the highest antioxidant activity could be used as natural antioxidant biomarkers to prevent cell damage.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72080,"journal":{"name":"Advances in biomarker sciences and technology","volume":"6 ","pages":"Pages 1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2543106424000012/pdfft?md5=cd76366294c14dc9d8e67ff730908aea&pid=1-s2.0-S2543106424000012-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139548627","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}

HDL cholesterol was raised. Further, the liver biopsy showed increased mononuclear cells; fat globules numbered less; and the enzymes and cells that are regenerating were at lower levels. The polyherbal formulation plus exercise exhibited significant anti-obesity efficacy at 400 mg/kg p. o.; the effect was equivalent to orlistat plus exercise.

The current study was conducted to discover new mutant P53 modulators in plants used for medicinal purposes. The mutant p53 3D structure was built using homology modeling, while its active binding domain was predicted using Findsitecom2.0. Docking studies were conducted with ligands derived from bioactive components of seven different plants and mutant p53 binding sites. Autodocking programs, including Discovery Studio and PyRx, were used to obtain the docking protein and its intricate visual representation. Gemcitabine and thiotepa were the reference drugs. Acute RAT toxicity and Pharmacokinetic properties were utilized in Gusar and SWISSADME, respectively, to narrow down the hit compounds to those with the highest binding affinities. Using the density functional theory (DFT) method, the electronic properties of the bioactive constituents were determined. 15 of the 50 bioactive phytochemicals displayed superior mutant p53 binding energies compared to Gemcitabine and Thioteba (−5.4 and −3.5 binding scores, respectively). Considering acute toxicity predictions and pharmacokinetics, 10-hydroxycamptothecin, irinotecan, morusin, and rubitecan were the four major compounds with low toxicity. DFT calculations uncovered regions susceptible to nucleophilic and electrophilic assaults.
