For the past decades now, the use and misuse of antibiotics have led most clinically important pathogens to develop multiple drug resistance; thus, reducing the applications of these antibiotics. The challenges associated with multi-drug resistance require various strategies such as genomics and nanotechnology approaches, and these will require detailed studies on each antibiotic and response to identify the specific nature of the pathogens. The current SAR CoV-2 known as the COVID-19 pandemic, even if it is not related to this situation, has shown the emergence desire for strategies to fight such increasing public threats. New ways of studying innate compounds that have suitable effects to mitigate this problem have been extended. In recent times, there has been a dramatically increased interest in the production of biosurfactants for food processing, environmental bioremediation, improved oil recovery, and biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. Biosurfactants can produce different biological activities including antibacterial, anticancer, antiviral, antifungal, haemolytic effects, and fibrin clotting inhibition. They had shown the capacity to destroy plasma membranes, improve cell membrane permeability, and eliminate metabolites. Thus, this review discusses the mechanisms of action, roles, applications, and available commercial products of biosurfactants focusing majorly on therapeutic and pharmaceutical perspectives. With their diversity, potential, and cost-effectiveness in the biomedical field, biosurfactants can be sourced as alternative molecules to synthetic drugs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7613,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Traditional Medicine","volume":"24 4","pages":"985 - 997"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139447558","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}

Seeds and root bark of <i>M. griffoniana</i> underwent solvent extraction and separation using column chromatography.

Compounds 5 and 7 were chosen; identified as durmillone and isojamaicin. Both showed varying concentration-dependent cytotoxic activity, in AlamarBlue and xCELLigence assays, for both cell lines. Caspases 3 and 7 were up-regulated and both compounds up-regulated <i>BAX</i> and down-regulated <i>BCL-2 a</i>nd <i>p53</i> in both cell lines.

The search for the best wound dressings has become more vital due to the rising population and incidence of chronic wounds. Wound dressings with nanofiber coatings have gained greater attention as creative and biocompatible materials. The Edinburg University Solution of Lime (EUSOL) is used an efficacious healing agent in the management of diabetic foot ulcer. In this work, we have fabricated a hybrid electro-spun nanofibrous patch of Cellulose Acetate (CA)/Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) with the encapsulation of therapeutic agent (EUSOL) and antimicrobial agent (Curcumin) respectively, for the immediate release of curcumin and sustain release of EUSOL to give antimicrobial effect and to promote granulation of tissues. The resultant Nano-fibrous films were characterized by SEM, ATR-FTIR, water contact angle measurement, tensile strength testing and UV–VIS Spectrophotometry to examine the morphology and chemical composition, wettability, stress–strain behavior and drug release profile. The drug release kinetics was evaluated through mathematical models Higuchi’s and Korsmeyer- Peppas. The characterization analysis shows the successful fabrication of nanofiber films. The release kinetic behavior of both encapsulated agents satisfied Higuchi’s model with co-efficient of correlation r2 = 0.91 and 0.86 which indicated that drug release diffusion is controlled. Dissolution was noticed as anomalous transport as fitted using Korsmeyer-Peppas equation. Consequently, the hybrid CA-EUSOL/PVA-Curcumin nanofibrous scaffolds are hopeful candidates for the sustainable and immediate release of therapeutic and antimicrobial agents to fabricate diabetic foot ulcer wound dressing.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":7613,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Traditional Medicine","volume":"24 3","pages":"777 - 788"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139141923","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}

Based on prior pharmacological research, the Chinese herbal formula Elgucare is abundant in the nutrients required by the IVD and can improve blood circulation, accelerating the removal of metabolic waste from the IVD. This study used a 23 G needle to surgically induce IVDD in a rat model. Thirty rats were randomly assigned to five groups: one that underwent sham surgery (Sham), one with IVDD that was not fed Elgucare (EGC-0), and three with IVDD that were fed Elgucare at different concentrations for six weeks (EGC-L, EGC-M, and EGC-H). Study parameters, including total body weight, plantar sensitivity to pain, gait analysis, IVD thickness, and IVD morphology, were used to assess the effects of Elgucare on IVDs. Our results showed that administering Elgucare to rats effectively reduced plantar tingling and improved swing speed during gait analysis. Elgucare also accelerated increases in IVD thickness and increased the proportion of IVD that returned to normal cellularity.

This review aims to highlight the traditional, pharmacological, botanical, and phytochemistry aspects of medicinal plant species belonging to the Rubiaceae family. The most significant research findings from the last few decades found in books and online databases like SciFinder and Google Scholar are reported in the paper. So far, more than 100 structurally diverse compounds have been identified from the Rubiaceae family, mainly including alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, triterpenoids, phenols, and volatile components. The crude extracts and compounds from the Rubiaceae family have been reported to possess broad pharmacological effects including antimalarial, antibacterial, antihypertension, antidiabetic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects during biological screening using leads provided by traditional healers. However, there is a dearth of research on the discovery of active phytoconstituents that are in charge of the pharmacological actions indicated above.
