Abstract

Sidaguri (Sida rhombifolia) belongs to the family Malvaceae and is used in traditional medicine to treat skindiseases, diarrhea, malaria, fever, and gout. These activities are caused by the presence of bioactivemetabolites, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, tannins, and saponins. Several factors, including harvestage, could affect the metabolite composition and concentration in a plant. In this study, the TLC fingerprint ofS. rhombifolia at planting ages of 3, 4, and 5 months was determined and in vitro xanthine oxidase inhibitoryactivity was evaluated. The TLC fingerprints obtained from the three planting ages had similar patterns. Thereare 11 compound bands with different color intensities at each planting age. Principal component analysis candifferentiate S. rhombifolia by planting age using TLC fingerprint analysis, with a total PC of 99%. The resultsof xanthine oxidase inhibition showed that the S. rhombifolia ethanol extract at 3, 4, and 5 months of plantingage inhibited the enzyme activity, with percent inhibitions of 45.37%, 44.72%, and 6.87%, respectively, at aconcentration of 100 ppm. Different planting ages of sidaguri are thought to contain varying concentrationsof compounds, as indicated by TLC fingerprints, and to result in different levels of xanthine oxidase inhibition.

Abstract

Storage is one of the post-harvest treatments carried out to maintain seed quality. Cardamom seeds arerecalcitrant seeds that require high moisture content during storage. The research aims to obtain the rightstorage method for maintaining the viability and vigor of cardamom seeds (Amomum compactum Sol. ExMeton; sin. A. cardamomum Roxb.). This study used a factorial, Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD).The first factor is the storage method, which consists of 4 levels: seed storage with capsules in plasticpackaging, with capsules in paper packaging, without capsules in plastic packaging, and without capsules inpaper packaging. The second factor is the storage period consisting of 4 levels, namely seeds stored for 1, 2,3, and 4 weeks. Observations were made on seed moisture content, germination, growth rate, meangermination time, and maximum growth potential. The results showed that Cardamom seeds retained withtheir capsules experienced a faster deterioration when it was stored in plastic packaging. Seeds withcapsules in plastic packaging had a seedling percentage of 35%, significantly lower than other treatments(51-58%) at 4 weeks of storage. Cardamom seeds can be stored in paper or plastic packaging when theseeds are extracted with noting that the use of paper packaging caused a decrease in seed moisture contentfrom 27.4% to 21.5−22.2%, while the use of plastic packaging can maintain seed moisture content of26.1−26.5%.

Abstract

Acute respiratory tract infection (ARI) is an infectious condition involving the upper and lower respiratorytract, with one of the symptoms being a cough with phlegm. Conventional treatment usually involves theuse of mucolytic agents such as acetylcysteine and ambroxol. The use of these drugs is reported to havepotential side effects, so alternative herbal-based mucolytic therapy is needed. The purpose of this studywas to evaluate the mucolytic effectiveness of ethanol extract of red hanjuang (Cordyline fruticosa (L.) A.Chev.) leaves. Extraction was performed using the maceration technique with 70% ethanol as the solvent.,with the maceration process directly on pure simplicia, and also on simplicia that had undergone a defattingprocess to obtain ethanol extract of red hanjuang leaves (EEH) and ethanol extract purification of redhanjuang leaves (EEPH). Mucolytic activity was assessed by measuring the viscosity of duck egg white usinga Brookfield viscometer. Acetylcysteine was used as a positive control, while a mixture of duck egg whiteand phosphate buffer at pH 7 served as a negative control. The mucolytic activity of EEH and EEPH wastested at concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by theLSD post hoc test. The results indicated that EEH and EEPH possessed mucolytic activities comparable tothe positive control (p > 0.05). Among the tested samples, EEPH at 1% concentration exhibited the strongestmucolytic effect, significantly outperforming the positive control (p < 0.05).

Abstract

Angiogenesis is the process of new blood vessel formation that plays a crucial role in tumor growth andmetastasis by supplying oxygen and nutrients to cancer cells. Therefore, the inhibition of angiogenesis hasbecome a promising strategy in the development of natural product-based anticancer therapies. The genusHornstedtia has been reported to possess various biological activities; however, scientific informationregarding the species Hornstedtia minor (Blume) Valeton remains very limited. This study aimed to identifythe secondary metabolite constituents and evaluate the potential antiangiogenic activity of the ethyl acetateextract of H. minor (Blume) Valeton fruit. Extraction was carried out using the maceration method with ethylacetate as the solvent. Qualitative phytochemical screening was conducted to identify the classes of secondarymetabolites present in the extract. Antiangiogenic activity was evaluated using the Chorioallantoic Membrane(CAM) assay on 9-day-old chicken embryos with treatment groups consisting of a normal control, a negativecontrol, and extract concentrations of 1, 10, and 100 μg/mL. The main parameter observed was the percentageinhibition of blood vessel formation on the chorioallantoic membrane. Phytochemical screening revealed thepresence of several secondary metabolites, including alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and polyphenols. Theantiangiogenic assay demonstrated that the percentage of blood vessel inhibition increased with increasingextract concentration, with the highest inhibition activity reaching 98% at a concentration of 100 μg/mL.These findings indicate that the ethyl acetate extract of H. minor (Blume) Valeton fruit exhibits potentialantiangiogenic activity in the CAM model and may serve as a promising source of natural antiangiogeniccandidate agents, warranting further mechanistic studies and biological evaluations.

Abstract

Breast cancer remains a public health issue. In Pakistan, breast cancer cases continue to rise annually.Tamoxifen is a standard treatment for patients with luminal breast cancer (ER+); however, prolong use oftamoxifen cause side effects and may lead to drug resistance. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explorenatural compounds as safer chemopreventive agents. This study uses computational methods to investigatecompounds from Fagonia cretica and their potential interactions with molecular targets relevant to luminalbreast cancer. We combined a literature review, network pharmacology, and molecular docking to identifypromising therapeutic agents from Fagonia cretica. The plant contains various natural compounds, mainlyfound in its aerial parts. Several compounds are frequently reported, including isorhamnetin, oleanolic acid,gallic acid, kaempferol, and apigenin. These compounds meet favorable drug-like characteristics. Networkpharmacology analysis indicated that these compounds target several key cancer-related proteins andpathways, including CA12, AURKB, CDK1, PLK1, MMP9, NEK2, TOP2A, CCNB1, CCNB2, and ESR1.Kaempferol exhibited good binding affinities in molecular docking simulations for key protein targets: CDK1(-7.39 kcal/mol), ESR1 (-7.73 kcal/mol), and MMP9 (-7.29 kcal/mol). Our findings suggest that Fagoniacretica has potential as a multitarget chemopreventive agent in luminal breast cancer. Keywords: breast cancer, ethnomedicine, Fagonia cretica, targeted therapy

Abstract

The growing burden of breast cancer and the limitations of current treatment strategies underscore theneed to identify alternative therapeutic approaches. This study investigated the multitarget therapeuticpotential of Mimosa pudica (Linn.) against luminal-type breast cancer using an integrated computationalframework that combined bibliometric analysis, drug-likeness and ADMET screening, networkpharmacology, gene expression analysis, and molecular docking. Bioactive compounds reported from M.pudica were evaluated in silico to assess physicochemical characteristics, pharmacokinetic properties, andpotential molecular targets. Predicted protein targets were further analyzed using protein–proteininteraction network analysis and visualized in Cytoscape to identify key pathways associated with breastcancer progression. The analysis identified multiple candidate compounds with favorable pharmacologicalprofiles and predicted interactions with proteins involved in critical biological processes, including cellcycle regulation, DNA metabolism, growth factor signaling, angiogenesis, migration, and invasion. Networkanalysis highlighted several hub proteins associated with luminal-type breast cancer, among which AURKAand CDK1 were prioritized for molecular docking based on network topology, pathway enrichment,biological relevance, and structural suitability. Molecular docking demonstrated favorable predictedinteractions between selected flavonoids—apigenin, galangin, kaempferol, diosmetin, and chrysin—andboth target proteins, with binding energies ranging from −7.6 to −8.9 kcal/mol. These ????indings providemechanistic insight into the potential molecular actions of M. pudica-derived compounds and support theirprioritization as candidate therapeutic molecules for further experimental investigation in luminal-typebreast cancer.

Abstract

The use of medicinal plants is increasing as knowledge about bioactive compounds, such as those found in betelplants. Differences between species in the same family (Piper betle L., Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav, andPeperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth) require identification to avoid herbal medicine counterfeiting. Themetabolomic approach in this study, based on untargeted compounds, uses thin-layer chromatography todetermine the metabolite profiles of the three betel species. The TLC results were visualized using the ImageJapplication to obtain quantitative data. Data processing was continued using chemometric methods with PCAto group species and OPLS-DA to identify Rf values that might have antioxidant potential. The PCA results, withtwo main components totaling 94%, successfully grouped the three species of the family Piperaceae, indicatingdifferences in their respective metabolite profiles. The OPLS-DA results effectively separated the samples basedon antioxidant activity into two categories strong (Piper betle L.) and weak (Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav andPeperomia pellucida (L.) Kunth), with Rf values of 7, 9, and 14 as the main contributors. Rf 9 was selected forfurther analysis using FTIR because it has the best VIP and p-value. These findings support the importance ofa metabolomic approach for quality control and authentication of medicinal raw materials. Keywords: betel leaf, thin layer chromatography, antioxidant, PCA, OPLS-DA
