Colorectum including the large intestine and the rectum is the second part of the digestive system involved in the absorption of water from the small bowel contents and breaks down certain materials in the feces into substances of which some of them to be reabsorbed and reused by the body.
The colon also is known as the large bowel or large intestine, formed parts of the digestive system in our body.
The colon consists of four parts: descending colon, ascending colon, transverse colon, and sigmoid colon.
The main functions of the colon are to reabsorb fluids and process waste products from the body and prepare for its elimination.
Colorectal cancer is a medical condition caused by irregular cell growth in the tissue of the colon or rectum.
Most cases of colorectal cancer start in the cells on the surface of the inner lining in the colon and rectum, before penetrating into deeper layers to form a tumor through proliferation.
Colorectal cancer is a relatively very slow-growing cancer that progresses in a predictable way.
According to the statistics provided by the American Cancer Society, excluding skin cancers, colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer diagnosed in both men and women in the United States.
In 2019, approximately 101,420 new cases of colon cancer and 44,180 new cases of rectal cancer will be diagnosed in the US.
The 5-year survival rate of colorectal cancer diagnosed at the localized stage is 90%. Sadly, only 39% of patients are diagnosed at this early stage.
Most common types of colorectal cancer classified depending on the primary originated cells are
* Adenocarcinomas
Most bowel cancers are adenocarcinomas, originated in epithelium tissues, including the surface layer of skin, glands and their tissues that line the cavities and organs of the body.
* Squamous cell cancers
Squamous cells are the skin-like cells that make up the bowel lining together with the gland cells. Squamous cell cancers are rare with a risk of 25 per 100000 population.
On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of cancers, scientists examined the chemopreventive effect of the supercritical extracts from Angelica sinensis (SFE-AS) on induced colorectal carcinoma in mice.
Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China.
The herb has been used as a Queen herb in traditional Chinese medicine antispasmodic and vasodilatory agent, and to balance the hormones in women for a normal menstrual cycle and menstruation and strengthen heart, spleen, kidneys, and liver for both men and women, etc. In other words, it is used to treat gynecological ailments, fatigue, mild anemia, and high blood pressure. It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, etc.
According to the results of selected male colorectal carcinoma mice that were subcutaneously injected with a single dose of azoxymethane (AOM, 10 mg x kg(-1) body weight) then one week later, given 2% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in drinking water for 7 days to induce colorectal carcinoma, following by oral administration of supercritical extracts from Angelica sinensis at 15, 30, 60 mg x kg(-1) until the 17th week,* The Tumor-bearing quantity and tumor-bearing volume of the SFE-AS group were lower than that of the AOM/DSS model control group.
* The SFE-AS group also showed a significant reduction of oxidative stress in the AOM/DSS-induced mouse colorectal carcinoma model associated with inflammation.
In other words, the application of Angelica sinensis at 15, 30, 60 mg x kg(-1) and strong inhibitory activity against 2% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) induced colorectal carcinoma,
Based on the evidence, researchers said, "SFE-AS showed an intervention effect in the incidence and development of AOM/DSS-induced mouse colorectal carcinoma associated with inflammation, and could be further used in chemo-preventive studies on human colorectal carcinoma".
Taken altogether, Herbal Angelica may be considered an anti colorectal cancer herbal remedy, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Coltsfoot(Tussilago farfara), A Natural Neuro-Protective Remedy
Neuroprotection is a process to preserve the neuronal structure and/or function against the death or gradual death of neurons, including the use of medicines and herbs.
In other words, neuroprotection protects the neuronal integrity against the reduction in the rate of neuronal loss over time inducing neurological disease, including neurodegenerative disease.
Neurodegenerative disease is the class of condition associated with the progressive loss of neuron occurred mostly in older adults, including dementia. The most common dementia in the US is Alzheimer`s disease (AD).
Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible, progressive brain disorder caused by the slowly lost of neuron in the brain that affects the memory and thinking skills and, eventually, the ability to carry out the simplest tasks as the disease progress into advanced stage.
According to the statistic, dementia affects over 47.5 million people worldwide, approximately 58 percent are living within low and middle-income countries.
Believe it or not, 5.8 million Americans of all ages are living with Alzheimer's dementia in 2019 and two-thirds of people with Alzheimer's disease are women.
Conventionally, as of today, there is no cure for dementia. Treatment of dementia is focusing to improve dementia symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease.
Coltsfoot(Tussilago farfara) is a perennial herbaceous plant, genus Tussilago, belonging to the family Asteraceae, native to Europe and Asia. The herb has been used over thousands of years to treat asthma, various coughs, bronchial congestion, respiratory disorders, headaches and obstruction in the nasal passage, etc.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of the neurological disorder, researchers examined the neuroprotective effect of Tussilagone (TSL) on LPS-induced neuronal cell death.
According to the tested assays, 4 sesquiterpenoids isolated from the TSL showed a significant effect against the production of nitric oxide, prostaglandin E2 and tumor necrosis factor-α in LPS-treated BV-2 cells.
In other words, the sesquiterpenoids inhibited the production of free radicals and proinflammatory expression associated with the BV-2 cells oxidative stress induced by LPS.
More precisely, the inhibition against the initiation of oxidative stress was attributed to the sesquiterpenoids activity in blocking the activation of the proinflammatory (NF-κB) pathway
Furthermore, the sesquiterpenoids also inhibited LPS-induced neuronal cell death in the co-culture system by inhibiting the expression of NF-κB pathway and scavenging of ROS.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "sesquiterpenoids from Tussilago farfara may have beneficial therapeutic potential for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases through inhibition of microglial activation".
Taken altogether, coltsfoot may be considered a remedy for the treatment of neurological disease, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Coltsfoot(Tussilago farfara) Protects the Cells Against Cytotoxicity Induced by ROS
Oxidative stress is a condition associated with the long-term imbalanced ratio of free radicals and antioxidants in the body, leading to protein, lipid, and cell damage that causes chronic illness such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
In other words, the condition is caused either by overexpression of free radicals or depletion of antioxidant enzymes produced by the host or both.
Antioxidants are either produced by the body or injected into the body from outside sources such as the consumptions of antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables.
Free radicals are everywhere, including the air we breathe, the food we eat and the body daily functioning such as cell metabolism.
More precisely, any chemical compound which has an oxygen molecule can become free radical after entering our body.
In healthy individuals, the antioxidant produced by the host is more than enough to counter the bombards of free radicals. However, people with a weakened immune system such as elderly and immature immune system such as the baby may need the injection of antioxidants from outside sources.
Particularly, people with a suppressive immune system due to chemotherapy may require to intake large amounts from antioxidant-rich food regularly.
However, free radicals in moderate amount are needed for body functioning, including lower blood pressure, relax blood vessels to move blood, such as nitric oxide NO.
Coltsfoot(Tussilago farfara) is a perennial herbaceous plant, genus Tussilago, belonging to the family Asteraceae, native to Europe and Asia. The herb has been used over thousands of years to treat asthma, various coughs, bronchial congestion, respiratory disorders, headaches and obstruction in the nasal passage, etc.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of disease associated with oxidative stress, researchers examined the cytoprotective compound, 1-[(4S)-3,4-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-1-benzopyran-6-yl]-ethanone (1) isolated from the flower buds of Tussilago farfara L.
According to the tested analysis on (1) and other isolated compounds such as 3,4-dicaffeoyl isoquinic acid (2), trans-cinnamic acid (3), 4-hydroxyacetophenone (4), 4,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (5), 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (6), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (7), isoquercetrin (8), and ligucyperonol (9), compounds 1 and 3 showed significant cytoprotective activities against glucose oxidase-induced oxidative stress in mouse fibroblast NIH3T3 cells and human keratinocyte HaCaT cells comapred others.
Furthermore, the MTT assay and lactate dehydrogenase leakage differentiation also supported the possibility of compounds 1 and 3 as the potent cytoprotective agents against overexpression of ROS.
Taken altogether, coltsfoot may be considered a remedy for the treatment of disease associated with oxidative stress-induced cytotoxicity, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Turmeric Protects the Skin Against Radiodermatitis
Radiodermatitis is a skin condition caused by exposure to ionizing radiation, particularly in patients with radiotherapy during cancer treatment.
The most common symptoms of RD are red patches accompanied by blistering.
Radiodermatitis can be classified
* Acute radiodermatitis develops in a few hours or weeks after the first exposure to radiation. The condition is healed itself in a short period of time
* Chronic RD is a condition of radiodermatitis that develops months, years or even decades after radiation.
The persistent reaction of RD can lead to complication of telangiectasia, a condition of widened venules (tiny blood vessels) that cause threadlike red lines or patterns on the skin, leading to
reduced quality of life and cosmetic outcome.
Dr. Sophie Seité, the lead scientist in the differentiation of the prevention and treatment of acute and chronic radiodermatitis wrote, "Today, treatment of radiodermatitis reactions is in its infancy. Although there is insufficient evidence available to form recommendations that would prevent or reduce radiodermatitis, some advances have been made using low-level light therapy (LLLT) or vascular lasers to control the symptoms".
And, "Some recent preclinical and clinical research suggests that LLLT has bio stimulating properties which allow the tissues to regenerate and heal faster, reduce inflammation, and prevent fibrosis. Also, in late-onset radiodermatitis pulsed dye laser treatment has been shown to be beneficial in clearing radiation-induced telangiectasia. In the absence of evidence-based recommendations, the objective of this paper is to review how to prevent or manage the symptoms of radiodermatitis reactions".
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and for the treatment of flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
With an aim to discover a natural compound for the treatment of radiodermatitis, a condition found in occurs in 95% of patients receiving radiation therapy (RT) for cancer, researchers examined the efficacy of oral curcumin, one of the biologically active components in turmeric, at reducing radiation dermatitis severity (RDS) at the end of RT, using the RDS scale, compared to placebo.
The multisite, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial involved in 686 breast cancer patients who received either four 500-mg capsules of placebo or curcumin three times daily throughout their prescribed course of RT until 1-week post-RT.
More than 3% of the curcumin-treated group showed a reduction of radiation dermatitis severity compared to placebo.
The treatment group also report a change in pain, symptoms, and quality of life however, they were not statistically significant between arms.
In other words, oral curcumin reduced radiation dermatitis severity compared to placebo but not significantly.
In order to clarify the effect of curcumin on reducing radiation dermatitis severity (RDS) researchers assessed the ability of curcumin in 30 breast cancer patients.
The study involved 30 adult females with noninflammatory breast cancer or carcinoma in situ prescribed RT (receiving radiotherapy) without concurrent chemotherapy, received 2.0 grams of curcumin or placebo orally three times per day (i.e., 6.0 grams daily) throughout their course of RT.
According to the weekly assessments and the Standard pooled variances t-test, curcumin reduced RDS compared to placebo at end of treatment.
Furthermore, 28.6% of curcumin-treated patients had moist desquamation, compared to placebo of 87.5%, according to Fisher's exact test.
Demographics, compliance, radiation skin dose, redness, pain, or symptoms are not significant differences in both groups.
Based on the findings, researchers wrote in the final report, "oral curcumin, 6.0 g daily during radiotherapy, reduced the severity of radiation dermatitis in breast cancer patients".
Taken altogether, turmeric processed a high amount of bioactive compound curcumin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of radiodermatitis, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Green Tea and its Bioactive Polyphenols Suppress the Onset and Progression of Osteoporosis, Medline Studies Find
Green tea may have a therapeutic and positive effect in reducing the onset, progression, and treatment of osteoporosis, some scientists suggested.
Osteoporosis is a chronic condition characterized by progression in the reduction of bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue and considered a major health problem in both elderly men and women.
The diseases also affect all bone in the body, including the bones of the spine, hip, and wrist
Scientists as of today do not know the exact causes of osteoporosis. However, they do know that certain factors are associated with the onset and progression of the disease.
Osteoporosis is the common disease among the elderly, probably due to the aging effect that induces nutrition deficiency such as
* Vitamin D insufficiency and reduced calcium absorption,
* Reduced hormone production, the drop of estrogen levels after menopause, can speeds up bone loss.
* Reduced production of bone mass and increased bone reabsorption.
These results suggested that osteoporosis can make the bone more fragile and easier to break. In the elderly, osteoporosis can be dangerous, as fractures can cause prolonged immobility, and required a longer healing process.
Some researchers suggested that fractures in the older population are the most common cause of blood clots or pneumonia, both of which can have fatal consequences.
Long-term use of certain medicines, such as anti-seizure drug Glucocorticoids and medical conditions such as kidney disease, Cushing's syndrome, and an overactive thyroid or parathyroid, can also increase the risk of osteoporosis.
Dr. Stephen P Tuck, the lead author in the study Osteoporosis in men said, "The incidence of osteoporotic fractures in elderly men, just as in aged women, increases exponentially with age; the rise in men, however, is some 5–10 years later than in women. Up to 50% of male osteoporosis have no identifiable etiology; however elderly males have a much higher likelihood of having an identifiable secondary cause than younger men".
Truly, both males and females share the same conditions of the onset of osteoporosis, but the onset of the disease in men is about 10 years later, compared to a woman of the same age.
Interestingly, in the observation of hip fracture in the aging population, Dr. Eric Orwoll, a physician-researcher who studies osteoporosis at Oregon Health and Science University wrote, “A third of all hip fractures occur in men, yet the problem of osteoporosis in men is frequently downplayed or ignored.”
Green tea is a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and the Western world.
In the study to evaluate the effects of ingestion of green tea and green tea bioactive compounds in mitigating bone loss and risk of osteoporotic fractures in both elderly women and men, researchers found that the applications exert significant activities in reducing the onset of osteoporosis, through their antioxidants and initiation of the production of natural antioxidant in the body such as glutathione and enzymes (e.g., catalase and superoxide dismutase) in inhibiting the levels of ROS that facilitate the chain reaction.
Truly, the overexpression of free radicals has been associated with the change in the balance between activities of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, leading to osteoclasts in destroying the calcified tissue and inducing bone remodeling.
These results demonstrated that green tea and its bioactive components exhibit a significant decrease in the risk of fracture by improving bone mineral density and preventing free radicals in damage the bone-forming osteoblasts while suppressing osteoclastic activities.
Moreover, in the review of the effect of green tea and its bioactive components on bone health, researchers indicated that the ingestions display an impressive osteoprotective impact on bone mass and microarchitecture in various bone loss models associated with aging, sex hormone deficiency, and chronic inflammation.
The implication of reduced onset and progression of osteoporosis in the aging population due to sex hormone deficiency may be attributed to green tea and its bioactive compound in increasing the levels of osteocalcin, a bone formation marker, decreasing serum of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), a bone resorption marker and improving the body in the absorption of calcium.
In fact, the serum levels of osteocalcin (OC) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) are considered effective measurements in the rate of bone turn over in patients with osteoporosis.
Interestingly, application of green tea and its bioactive compound also is found to modulate the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in the regulation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, through inhibiting the production of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the liver in initiating inflammation and reducing levels of interleukin-1 and 6(IL-1-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), the sensitive markers of systemic inflammation.
This differentiation were supported by the study in the evaluation of the efficacy of green tea polyphenols (GTPs) at mitigating bone loss and microstructure deterioration along with related mechanisms in 40 androgen-deficient aged male rats, a model of male osteoporosis, randomly assigned to received A 2 (sham vs. orchidectomy) × 2 (no GTP and 0.5% GTP in drinking water) for 16 weeks.
At the end of the experiment, researchers found that rats treated with GTP demonstrate an increased serum osteocalcin concentrations, bone mineral density, and trabecular volume, number, and strength of femur; trabecular volume and thickness and bone formation in both the proximal tibia and periosteal tibial shaft, and decreased eroded surface in the proximal tibia and endocortical tibial shaft, and increased liver glutathione peroxidase activity.
The findings indicated a strong implication of green tea polyphenols in decreasing cortical and trabecular bone loss and increasing both bone density by stimulating the overexpression of bone formation and reducing bone resorption via antioxidant capacity.
Taken together, green tea and its bioactive polyphenols may be considered functional foods in ameliorating early-onset, progression, and combined with standard medicine for the treatment of osteoporosis.
However, intake of green tea supplements should be taken with extreme care due to recent reports of acute liver toxicity.

Osteoporosis is a chronic condition characterized by progression in the reduction of bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue and considered a major health problem in both elderly men and women.
The diseases also affect all bone in the body, including the bones of the spine, hip, and wrist
Scientists as of today do not know the exact causes of osteoporosis. However, they do know that certain factors are associated with the onset and progression of the disease.
Osteoporosis is the common disease among the elderly, probably due to the aging effect that induces nutrition deficiency such as
* Vitamin D insufficiency and reduced calcium absorption,
* Reduced hormone production, the drop of estrogen levels after menopause, can speeds up bone loss.
* Reduced production of bone mass and increased bone reabsorption.
These results suggested that osteoporosis can make the bone more fragile and easier to break. In the elderly, osteoporosis can be dangerous, as fractures can cause prolonged immobility, and required a longer healing process.

Herbal Dandelion(Taraxacum officinale) Inhibits the Diseases Associated with Dengue Virus Serotype 2
Infection is a condition that caused the invasion of stimuli and micro pathogens, including viral infection.
Similar to bacterial infection, both infections shared common characteristics by spreading through coughing and sneezing by and contact with infected people, especially through kissing and sex.
However, unlike bacteria, a virus replicates only inside the living cells of an organism. Viruses can infect all types of life forms, including humans and microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea.
Anti-viral effects are the process that certain substances are used to cause the destruction of a virus.
In the acute phase of viral infection, depending on the types of viruses, the viruses after entering the body start to attack the specific host cells. The cold and flu virus will attack the cells in the respiratory system and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which causes AIDS, will attack the white blood cells of the immune system,
The viral infection has been known to carry over some different stage, after successfully attaching to the host cell, the virus to release its mRNA into the host cell, leading to the recruit of the host cell's enzymes to accelerate the viral multiplying, then breaking free from the host cell to start the cycle all over again.
The white blood cells in the systematic immune response in the acute phase of infection stimulate the production of the proinflammatory cytokines to the site of infection with an aim to protect our body by killing off the invaders.
The battle between the immune white blood cell and viral invaders in most cases an in the flavor of the side of the immune system, the invaders are killed and the infection is healed.
However, if the immune system can not kill off the invaders with 3 - 8 weeks, it then will adapt to the change, leading to chronic inflammatory and infectious diseases.
Dengue virus (DENV) belongs to the Flavivirus genus and is transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Ae. Albopictus mosquitoes, found in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. In severe cases, dengue virus serotype 2 has been found to induce symptoms of severe plasma leakage, severe hemorrhage, and/or severe organ impairment.
Dandelion is a herbaceous perennial plant, genus Taraxacum, belongings to the family Asteraceae, native to temperate regions of the world. It has been used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat gout, eczema, acne, gall bladder, kidney, liver and urinary disorders, hypoglycemia, dyspepsia with constipation, edema, blood pressure, and heart weakness, chronic joint, skin diseases, etc.
On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, scientists examined the cytotoxic concentration and the inhibitory effect of extracts or fractions from Urtica dioica, Taraxacum officinale, Calea integrifolia and Caesalpinia pulcherrima on the dengue virus serotype 2 (DENV2 replication on the BHK-21 cell line.
According to the tested differentiation,
* The methanolic extracts at 60 °C of T. officinale and U. dioica showed the higher inhibitory effects on DENV2 replication.
* The chemical analysis suggested that the higher activity fraction is found for U. dioica and T. officinale, at the IC50 values of 165.7 ± 3.85 and 126.1 ± 2.80 μg/ml, respectively.
The compounds which exhibited the efficacy of T. officinale were luteolin and caffeoylquinic acid derivatives and quercetin diclycosides compared to the compounds in the active fraction chlorogenic acid, quercetin derivatives and flavonol glycosides (quercetin and kaempferol) in the U. dioica.
Based on the results, researchers suggest, "Two fractions from U. dioica and T. officinale methanolic extracts with anti-dengue activity were found. The compounds present in both fractions were identified, several recognized molecules have demonstrated activity against other viral species".
Taken altogether, dandelion may be considered an antioxidant remedy for the treatment of dengue virus serotype 2, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Angelica Inhibits the Acute Coronary Syndrome in Patient with Renal Deficiency
The acute coronary syndrome is a medical emergency associated with a range of conditions caused by sudden, reduced blood flow to the heart, leading to heart muscle damage and brain apoptosis depending on the affected location.
Acute coronary syndrome is associated with the severity of buildup of plaque deposits in and on the walls of the coronary arteries.
Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood.
Arteries formed a part of blood vessels and circulatory system with function to deliver oxygen and nutrients to heart muscles.
Depending on the severity of the blockage, a complete blockage is life-threatening. Symptoms of the acute coronary syndrome, chest pain or discomfort, pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the jaw, neck, back or stomach, shortness of breath, dizziness, and nausea.
If the chest pain is persistent with no sign of stopping, please call 911 immediately.
The most common treatment of acute coronary syndrome is medicine to reopen the artery. However, in severe cases, angioplasty (a inflate a small balloon) may be necessary.
Traditionally, over many decades, patients with acute coronary syndrome are likely to be treated by oxygen therapy.
Dr. Pankaj Garg in the examing the effects of oxygen therapy on patients with acute coronary syndrome wrote, " However, more recently, there have been many reports of harmful effects of high-flow oxygen in ACS patients where the patient might not be hypoxic".
Anf "High flow oxygen has been shown previously to reduce cardiac output,2 attributes to arterial vasoconstriction3–5 and also to increase systemic vascular resistance.6 More recently, two systematic reviews suggest that the routine use of high-flow oxygen in uncomplicated myocardial infarction may result in greater infarct size and possibly increase the risk of mortality".
Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China. The herb has been used as a Queen herb in traditional Chinese medicine antispasmodic and vasodilatory agent, and to balance the hormones in women for a normal menstrual cycle and menstruation and strengthen heart, spleen, kidneys, and liver for both men and women, etc. In other words, it is used to treat gynecological ailments, fatigue, mild anemia, and high blood pressure. It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, etc.
On finding a potential compound that inhibits acute coronary syndrome, researchers examined the neuroprotective effects of Chinese herbal medicines in the cardiovascular outcome among patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and renal insufficiency after the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The study included population consisted of 215 subjects in the control group who were treated with western medicine standard therapy, and 211 subjects in the treatment group who were treated with Chinese herbal medicines (Fufang Chuanxiong Capsule and Xinyue Capsule) for 6 months.
Participants are from the 5C trial with post-PCI patients suffered from ACS with mild-to-moderate renal insufficiency (30 mL•min-1•1.73 m-2 < estimated glomerular filtration rate≤89 mL•min-1•1.73 m-2).
According to the endpoints including the composite of cardiac death, nonfatal recurrent myocardial infarction, and ischemia-driven revascularization assays, after one year of following up of 2 groups
*There were 16 cases of the primary endpoint in the control group and 6 cases of the primary endpoint in the treatment group with an absolute risk reduction ARR=0.046. elative risk RR= 0.38.
* There were 15 cases of secondary endpoint in the control group and 5 cases of secondary endpoint in the treatment with ARR= 0.041 and RR=0.34
In other words, the treatment of Chinese and Western medicines showed a strong effect in reducing the risk of acute coronary syndrome in patients with renal deficiency.
However, The eGFR levels associated with the renal functioning in the treatment group were significantly higher, compared to the higher levels in the control group.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "Chinese herbal medicines plus western medicine standard therapy improved clinical outcomes in patients with ACS and mild-to-moderate renal insufficiency. Additionally, this study also demonstrated Chinese herbal medicines were useful in deferring the decline of renal function".
Taken altogether, herbal Angelica in combination with other herbal medicines that may be considered a remedy for the treatment of acute coronary syndrome, pending to larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Cranberry Inhibits the Risk and Onset of Oral Cancer
The mouth formed part of the digestive system is an oval-shaped cavity inside the skull that processes 2 main functions of eating and speaking.
Cancer is a group of chronic diseases characterized by cell growth disorderly that starts on the surface of the inner lining tissue of the mouth.
Oral cancer is any malignant cell growth in the tissue located in the oral cavity, including the tissue of the lips or the tongue, cheek lining, floor of the mouth, gums (gingiva), and the roof of the mouth (palate).
According to the statistics provided by the Canadian Cancer Society, in 2017, 4,700 Canadians were diagnosed with oral cancer, including 3,250 men and 1,450 women. In the same year, the disease also caused the death of 1,250 Canadians.
The exact causes of oral cancer are unknown. Epidemiologically, aging, smoking, excessive alcohol drinking, chewing tobacco and betel nut, long-term use of mouth wash, male ganders are some of the most prevalent factors found in patients with the disease.
Some researchers suggested that poor hygiene that leads to advanced gingivitis may be a major culprit that causes the onset of oral cancer.
Dr. Roshni Ramesh, the lead scientist wrote, "Gingival enlargements are frequently encountered in dental practice. There are different types of gingival enlargements and they vary according to the etiologic factors and pathologic processes that produce them".
And, "Oral cancers especially squamous cell carcinomas present with variations in clinical presentation and the sites affected".
Cranberry is an evergreen dwarf shrub, genus Vaccinium, belongings to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern America and Southern Asia. Because of its health benefits, cranberry has been cultivated in some parts of the world for commercial profit and used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat wounds, urinary disorders, diarrhea, diabetes, stomach ailments, and liver problems.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of cancer, researchers examined the effect of proanthocyanidins, compounds highly concentrated in dietary cranberries and grapes on oral cancer.
The oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines, CAL27 and SCC25 were used to compare the effects of cranberry and grape seed extract on phenotypic behaviors of these oral cancers.
According to the tested analysis, administration of cranberry and grape seed extracts, in a dose-dependent manner showed significant inhibition of the proliferation of both oral cancer cell lines.
Proteins associated with the promotion of cancer cell apoptosis were significantly stimulated by the injection of cranberry and grape seed extracts.
The pathways associated with cancer cell adhesion, cell morphology, and cell cycle division were also inhibited by both extracts.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "This study represents one of the first comparative investigations of cranberry and grape seed extracts and their anti-proliferative effects on oral cancers".
And, "cranberry and grape seed extract not only inhibit oral cancer proliferation but also that the mechanism of this inhibition may function by triggering key apoptotic regulators in these cell lines".
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of oral cancer, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Dandelion(Taraxacum officinale) Processes Antiproliferative Activity Against Cancer
Cell proliferation is a radical growth of cells to replace the damage or injury through the cell cycle division.
Cell proliferation is a process and a necessary step for wound healing.
All normal cells undergo cell cycle division to replace the old cells with new cells through a limited cell division.
On the other hand, cancer cells can multiply definitely.
In cancer, antiproliferation is a process in which the cancer cells are killed or limited to grow through many mechanisms, including the use of chemo drugs.
In the immune perspective, anti-proliferation can be carried out by activating the genes associated with cancer suppression, programming cell death,.... and cell cycle arrest.
A suppressive gene, such as pro-apoptotic p53 induces cancer cell death through cell cycle arrest. In other words, the gene inhibits tumor growth by interrupting the cancer cell cycle division.
In the programmed cell death gene, such as BCL-2 induce cell death by either inducing or inhibiting apoptosis. In other words, If cells are no longer needed or damaged, activating an intracellular death program will cause cell death.
In the phytochemicals perspective, anti-proliferation can also be carried out by antioxidants in which they stimulate the free radicals overexpression to induce toxicity to tumor cells without causing harm to the nearby healthy cells.
Some cancers can stimulate the production of a new blood vessel for cancer cells to grow and others can make enzymes that break down normal cells and tissues as they grow.
Dandelion is a herbaceous perennial plant, genus Taraxacum, belongings to the family Asteraceae, native to temperate regions of the world. It has been used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat gout, eczema, acne, gall bladder, kidney, liver and urinary disorders, hypoglycemia, dyspepsia with constipation, edema, blood pressure, and heart weakness, chronic joint, skin diseases, etc.
On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases, scientists compare five different common South European species of Taraxacum (T. obovatum (Willd.) DC., T. marginellum H. Lindb., T. hispanicum H. Lindb., T. lambinonii Soest and T. lacistrum Sahlin) antioxidant and anti-proliferative activity.
According to the dissimilarities between species in LC/MS patterns, T. marginellum demonstrated a strong intracellular antioxidant activity and the cytotoxicity by reducing the expression of ROS.
Compared to the other 3 species, T. marginellum showed the most efficient against the induction of free radicals overexpression in vitro.
Furthermore, in free radical theory, compared to T. marginellum, T. obovatum was the best free radical scavenger and a relevant cytotoxic effect was found in T. lacistrum extract over HeLa and HepG2 cell lines.
Taken altogether, Dandelion may be considered an antioxidant remedy that processes antioxidant and anti-proliferative activity, in a type-dependent manner, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Turmeric Blocks the Onset of Oral Mucositis Caused By the Bacterial Infection
Oral mucositis is considered a side effect in patients who undergo cancer treatment, particularly chemotherapy and radiation.
In cancer, oral mucositis is caused by the reduced function of the immune system to protect the infection of open sores in the mucosa.
However, poor oral or dental health, smoking or chewing tobacco and drinking alcohol, female gender, dehydration, and patients who had previously cancer treatment, have kidney disease are some of the most common risk factors that cause the onset of oral mucositis.
The most common symptoms of oral mucositis are red, shiny, or swollen mouth and gums, sores in the mouth or on the gums or tongue, pain in the mouth or throat, mild burning, or pain when eating food.
Some patients may also experience symptoms of difficulty swallowing or talking, soft, whitish patches or pus in the mouth or on the tongue, particularly the increase of mucus or thicker saliva in the mouth.
Some researchers suggested the onset of oral mucositis in most cases are associated with people with a weakened immune system, including the use of chemotherapy.
Dr. Francesco Chiappelli wrote, "Mucositis is observed in a variety of immunosuppressed patients, but is most often consequential to cancer therapy. It appears as early as the third day of the intervention, and is usually established by Day 7 of treatment".
And, "The precise immune components involved in the etiology of mucositis are unclear, but evidence-based research (EBR) data has shown that applications of granulocyte–macrophage-colony stimulating factor prevent the onset of the exacerbation of oropharyngeal mucositis".
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
With an aim to find a potential compound for the treatment of oral mucositis(OM), researchers evaluated the effects of turmeric and curcumin in the management of oral mucositis in cancer patients undergoing chemo and/or radiotherapy by searching the database of Cochrane Library, LILACS, LIVIVO, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science.
After a two-step selection process, four randomized and one nonrandomized clinical trials were included in the analysis in which 2 studies suggested that topical application of turmeric/curcumin as a gel or mouthwash showed a reduced grade of mucositis, pain, erythema intensity, and ulcerative area.
In other words, the topical application of turmeric or curcumin may be effective in controlling signs and symptoms of oral mucositis in tested patients.
Furthermore, according to the study of 72 golden Syrian hamsters induced mucositis (OM) by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) for 4 days randomly allocated into four groups: control, placebo, chamomilla, and a mucoadhesive formulation containing curcuminoid (MFC)
* On day 5, all groups exhibited OM
* On day 8, both MFC and chamomilla groups exhibited better-wound healing compared to other groups.
* Moreover, also on day 8, the MFC group demonstrated inhibited protein associated with stimulating new blood vessels for the OM to grow and proinflammatory cytokines to facilitate symptoms of OM, compared to placebo and control group.
Collectively, Dr. Schmidt TR, the lead scientist wrote in the final report, "these findings suggest that MFC has a therapeutic effect on OM, accelerating wound healing through re-epithelization and anti-inflammatory action as modulation of angiogenesis and TGF-β1 expression".
Taken altogether, turmeric processed abundantly bioactive compound curcumin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of OM, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Green Tea Polyphenols (GrTPs), the Anti Female Infertility Bioactive Ingredient, Scientists Find
Scientists may have found a beverage bioactive compound in improving the chance of fertility in female without inducing any side effects, some studies found,
Infertility is a condition characterized by the inability to get pregnant after 12 months of frequent and unprotected sex of a couple. Women who can carry the term of pregnancy are also considered as infertile.
According to the statistic, approximately 8 to 12 percent of couples worldwide experience fertility problems. Between 45 and 50 percent of cases of infertility are attributed to male reproductive problems.
The most common causes of infertility in the female in the US. are aging, medical condition of endometriosis, and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) which have a strong interruption of the female menstrual cycle, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and obesity.
Other prevalent risk factors including physical and medical condition, such as blocked fallopian tubes due to pelvic inflammatory disease, and physical problems with the uterus and diabetes, long-term intakes of a certain medicine, such as anti-inflammatory drug and hormone imbalance that affect the menstrual cycle
Genetic preposition such as The HOXA13 gene. The only one single gene disorder has been shown to affect uterine development in infertile females.
Age, smoking, use of illicit drugs, excessive alcohol drinking, and long-term exposure to chemicals are the common causes of female infertility.
In term of diet, researchers at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in the study "Diet and female fertility: doctor, what should I eat?" wrote, "According to existing data, women trying to achieve pregnancy are encouraged to increase consumption of whole grains, omega-3 fatty acids, fish, and soy and to reduce consumption of trans fats and red meat. In addition, a daily multivitamin that contains folic acid before and during pregnancy may not only prevent birth defects but also improve the chance of achieving and maintaining a pregnancy".
These results suggested that women who follow the diet with high in saturated and trans fat, intake of a large amount of red meat and processed food, and less in fruits, nuts, and vegetables are at a higher risk of infertility or of carrying the pregnancy to full term.
In the concerns of oxygen species (ROS), which are produced during cellular oxidation may reduce the chance of conception, researchers at the joint study led by the Uniwersytet Medyczny w Łodzi. launched an investigation to examine whether increased production of reactive oxygen species is an important factor in the etiopathogenesis of pregnancy and affects female reproduction.
Before the application of green tea s (GrTPs) researchers found that oxidative stress caused by overexpression of free radicals may damage the oocytes and may impair their fertilization capacity.
The increased ROS levels probably are the results of antioxidant enzymes produced by the tested subjects being suppressed due to some unknown mechanisms.
Oxidative stress may also lead to embryo fragmentation and formation of numerous developmental abnormalities and is regarded to be one of the important reasons for spontaneous and recurrent miscarriage
Oral administered green tea polyphenols (GrTPs) inhibits the overexpression of ROS showed to restore the embryo fragmentation and formation of numerous developmental abnormalities and increase the quality of female gametes, mostly via the capability of catechins to reduce ROS production.
Further analysis also suggested that GrTPs processed antioxidant properties that only restores the health of oocytes caused by overexpression of ROS but also improves age-related decline in female fertility rate, and gamete quality.
These unique properties of green tea catechins in improving the female reproductive health suggested green tea polyphenols (GrTPs) may be considered a functional food in protecting against the damage of the oocytes and their fertilization capacity and the integrity of embryo.
Dr, Rahman SU, the lead scientist at the final report, said, "the therapeutic effects of GrTPs against infertility, their possible mechanisms of action, and recommended supportive therapy for improving fertility in humans and in animals".
Additionally, in the concerns of the Reactive oxygen species (ROS) that may increase the risk of female infertility, researchers launched an investigation to examine whether green tea catechins protect the female gametes over the expression of ROS.
After taking into account levels of oxidative stress before and after application of green tea catechin, researchers wrote,
* Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a major bioactive compound in green tea inhibited the expression of ROS in facilitating the damage of female gametes through to its strong antioxidant activity.
* Green tea catechins potentially improves the oocyte maturation and may inhibit in-vitro maturation of the oocyte
Dr. Roychoudhury S, the lead author said, " (These results furtherly confirmed) the potential roles of green tea catechins on oxidative stress in male and female reproduction and fertility".
Taken altogether, Green tea polyphenols (GrTPs) may be considered an adjunct therapy in the protection of the female gametes and oocyte maturation against the onset of infertility.

Herbal Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, the Free Radicals Scavenger Functional Herb
Herbal Arctostaphylos uva-ursi may have a potential effect in reducing the risk and treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases, some studies suggested.
Oxidative stress is a production of the imbalance of ratio of free radicals and antioxidant in the bost body.
The imbalance of the ratio of free radicals and antioxidant in the bost body can be caused either by the overproduction of free radicals or antioxidant enzymes are suppressed by the outside sources.
However, most outside sources that suppress the levels of antioxidant enzymes also play an important role in stimulating the overexpression of free radicals, such as chemical toxins
Free radicals are unstable atoms with the unpaired electron in the outer ring. Therefore, in order for them to become stable, free radical either donates or steals an electron from stable molecules, leading to a chain of reaction that facilitates the onset of oxidative stress.
The chain once starts, it can not stop until the electron on the outer ring is paired or inhibited by antioxidant.
Free radical has been known to cause oxidative damage to the enzymes, other protein, unsaturated fatty acid, phospholipids, DNA and RNA.
Antioxidants are stable molecules found abundantly in fruits, vegetable, and herbal medicine.
If oxidative stress-related diseases are associated with the overproduction of free radicals, then long-term intake of a healthy diet high in fruits, vegetable and less in red meat and saturated and trans fat and processed foods can reduce the risk of the diseases in the healthy individuals.
Dr. Halliwell B, in the study to reaffirm the effect of healthy dietary patterns against the onset of oxidative stress said, " diet-derived antioxidants may be particularly important in protecting against these diseases" and
"The physiological relevance of these effects is uncertain, as is the optimal intake of most diet-derived antioxidants. In principle, these questions could be addressed by examining the effects of dietary composition and/or antioxidant supplementation upon parameters of oxidative damage in vivo".
Arctostaphylos uva-ursi is one of the species of Bearberry, in the genus Arctostaphylos, belonging to the family Ericaceae, native to northern North America, Asia, and Europe.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as a diuretic agent and to treat urinary problems, including bladder infections, kidney infection, kidney stone, pelvic pain, etc.
The herbal plant contains arbutin, ursolic acid, tannic acid, gallic acid, some essential oil and resin, hydroquinones tannins, phenolic glycosides, and flavonoids.
In the examining the Dr. Bol'shakova IV, the lead author at the Emanuel Institute of Biochemical Physics claim, that Arctostaphylos uva.processes a significant antioxidant property in the inhibition of free radicals generation, researchers launched an investigation to evaluate the concentration of compound that inhibited cell growth by 50% (IC(50)) of a range of phytochemicals and plant extracts.
All selected extracts were differentiated according to the antioxidant and genoprotective effects under conditions of oxidative stress in U937 cells.
Two phytochemicals-resveratrol and citroflavan-3-ol isolated from the herbal Arctostaphylos uva-ursi demonstrated the highest IC50 value of 13.7 microg/mL, compared to the lowest at 9,400 microg/mL. of Echinacea.
Extract of herbal Arctostaphylos uva-ursi displayed a significant attenuation of the oxidative stress induced by the etoposide injection by inhibiting the expression of H2O2- and tBOOH-induced DNA damage.
These result reconfirmed the findings of Dr. Bol'shakova IV team that herbal Arctostaphylos uva-ursi as a non-nutrient dietary constituent may act as significant bioactive compounds in enhancing the antioxidants activity and stimulating the production of antioxidant enzymes if the herb is administrated in an animal model.
Moreover, Dr.Matsuda H the antioxidant team leader at the Kinki University, Osaka in the finding the natural compounds or whole food with potential antioxidant effects evaluated the inhibitory effect of 50% ethanol extracts obtained from the leaves of six Arctostaphylos plants (A. patula, A. viscida, A. canescens, A. Columbiana, A. nevadensis and A. uva-ursi) (Ericaceae).
Injection of the extracts of A. patula showed potent inhibition against tyrosinase, the enzyme that cause oxidation of the skin pigment.
Also, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi not only inhibited the production of melanin from dopachrome by autoxidation and but reduced the over exhibited SOD (superoxide dismutase, free radical)-like activity.
Additionally, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi processed a moderate absorbance in the UV-B area.
The results not only reaffirm the claim of Dr. Bol'shakova IV suggestion but also introduce a new herbal whitening medicine for the skin.
Taken all together, Herbal Arctostaphylos uva-ursi may be considered a functional food for the prevention and an adjunct therapy combine with primary medicine for the treatment of oxidative-related diseases.

Herbal Cascara Sagrada's Emodin Which Inhibits Pancreatic Cancer Cells Against Spreading
Scientists may have found a functional herb bioactive compound which processes anti-pancreatic cancer activity with no side effects, some scientists suggested.
Pancreatic cancer is a medical and chronic condition characterized by irregular cell growth in the tissue of the pancreas.
In the early stage, pancreatic cancer starts on the cells of the surface of the inner lining of pancreatic tissue. At the advanced stage, cancerous cells of the pancreas can travel a distance away to invade other healthy tissue and organs.
The exact causes of the alternation of DNA of pancreatic cells are unknown. However, epidemiological studies suggested that genetic preposition and acquired gene mutations are associated with the increased incidence of cancer.
Some researchers suggested long-term use of tobacco, being overweight and obese, exposure to workplace chemicals, age, gender, and family history are some prevalent risk factors of pancreatic cancer.
According to the statistic, pancreatic cancer is the eighth most common cancer in women and the fourth leading cause of cancer death in men and women. cancer accounts for 7% of all cancer deaths.
The 5 years survival rate at stage 1 and 2 is 61% and 52% respectively.
Cascara sagrada is a species of buckthorn, genus Rhamnus, belonging to the family Rhamnaceae, native to western North America.
The herbal's bark has been used in traditional medicine for gastrointestinal support. and it is thought to have a laxative and natural cleansing effect.
Besides the main compound of anthraquinones, the herb also contains anthraquinone glycosides, (emodin, frangulin, iso-emodin, aloe-emodin, and chrysophanol), rhein, aloin, malic acid, tannic acid, cascarosides A, B, C, and D, and hydroxy anthracene derivatives (HAD), etc.
In the study to reaffirm the Emodin anti-pancreatic cancer effect through inducing apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells and inhibit tumor growth, researchers at the Zhejiang University School of Medicine, launched an investigation to find out whether emodin could inhibit the angiogenesis of pancreatic cancer tissues and its mechanism.
In vitro and in vivo Emodin inhibited pancreatic cancer cell growth, induced apoptosis, and enhanced the anti-tumor effect of gemcitabine on pancreatic cancer cells by inhibiting the activity of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), the protein in response to cellular survival
Emodin inhibited tumor angiogenesis in vitro and in implanted pancreatic cancer tissues, decreased the expression of angiogenesis-associated factors, and reduced eNOS phosphorylation in cell proliferation.
However, Emodin had no effect on VEGFR expression in vivo.
Dr. Lin SZ, the lead author said, "emodin has a potential anti-tumor effect on pancreatic cancer via its dual role in the promotion of apoptosis and suppression of angiogenesis".
Additionally, in the examine the effects of an X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) and NF-κB in chemotherapy resistance in pancreatic cancer, researchers conducted an investigation of SW1990 cells treated by sodium chloride, gemcitabine, emodin or their combination (gemcitabine plus emodin).
The combination therapy of gemcitabine plus emodin) is more effective in inducing a significantly inhibited SW1990 cell growth and a higher percentage of apoptosis than monotherapy.
Gemcitabine upregulated the expression of XIAP and NF-κB, while emodin or emodin plus gemcitabine downregulated them compared to the control group in vitro.
In SW1990 cells established orthotopic pancreatic tumor models in nude mice. The combination of emodin and gemcitabine showed a significant reduction in the tumor to tumor (T/NT) ratio, Standardized uptake value (SUV), and tumor weight compared to monotherapy.
Dr. Wang ZH, the lead author after taking into account of co and confounders wrote:" emodin enhances the antitumor effect of gemcitabine in SW1990 pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo, which may be via the downregulation of NF-κB expression, thus inhibiting the expression of XIAP.".
Taken altogether, herbal Cascara sagrada process high amount of bioactive ingredient Emodon may be considered a function in the prevention and an adjunct therapy combined with chemo intervention of treatment of pancreatic cancer, pending to the results of large example size and multi-center studies.

Ashwagandha Protects the Liver Against Injury
The liver is the largest internal organ in the human body, played an essential role in filtering blood from the intestine before passing them to other parts of the body.
The organ also produced cholesterol, a waxy substance that is needed to aid digestion and build strong cell membranes, production of steroid hormones and vitamins.
Liver injury may be a result caused by physical impact or penetrating trauma. In some cases, liver injury can also be induced by toxicity, leading to acute liver injury.
Liver injury can be mild or severe. In a mild case, liver injury can recover itself. However, in severe cases, surgery to stop the bleeding and remove the part of injury may be necessary.
Most cases of liver injury can lead to abdominal pain and tenderness caused by bleeding blood in the abdomen that irritates the abdominal tissue.
The severity of a liver injury can be diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) or ultrasonography.
According to the statistics, liver injury has been found to constitute 5% of all traumas, making it the most common abdominal injury.
The most common symptoms associated with liver injury are shocks due to severe bleeding inducing a rapid heart rate, rapid breathing, and cold, clammy, pale or bluish skin.
In some cases, blood accumulated in the abdomen may irritate the abdominal tissue, leading to symptoms of abdominal pain and swollen and tenderness.
Depending on the degree of injury, patients are either treated with nonoperative management and observation for a full self-recovery or surgery.
Ashwagandha also is known as Withania somnifera is a nightshade plant in the genus of Withania, belonging to the family Solanaceae, native to the dry parts of India, North Africa, Middle East, and the Mediterranean.
The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine over 3000 years to treat tumors and tubercular glands, carbuncles, memory loss, and ulcers and considered as anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.
In the urgency to discover a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of liver diseases, researchers examined the effects of withanolides (WA) from Withania somnifera root extract on hepatic toxicity in an animal model
According to the tested analysis, the application of WA profoundly protects wild-type mice but not Nrf2-disrupted mice against APAP hepatotoxicity.
Where Nrf2 is a protein that regulates the expression of antioxidant proteins against oxidative damage.
In vivo and in vitro, WA is a potent inducer of Nrf2-dependent cytoprotective enzyme expression.
In other words, WA protects the liver damage against oxidative stress by enhancing the function by the activation of antioxidant enzyme protein independently to a redox-regulated substrate adaptor protein Keap1 and dependently on pathway associated with limit proliferation in cells.
Taken altogether, Ashwagandha processed a high amount of bioactive compound WA may be considered supplements for the prevention of liver toxicity, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Herbal Ashwagandha Inhibits the Parameters Associated with Epilepsy in Vivo
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder associated with sudden recurrent episodes of sensory disturbance, loss of consciousness, or convulsions, caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain.
Approximately, 1.2 percent of U.S. people have active epilepsy. More than 65 million people have epilepsy globally.
Additionally, about 1 in 26 people will develop epilepsy at some point during their lifetime.
The most common causes of epilepsy are low oxygen during birth, head injuries that occur during birth or from accidents during youth or adulthood, brain tumors, genetic mutation, infections such as meningitis or encephalitis.
The most common symptoms of epilepsy are temporary confusion, uncontrollable jerking movements of the arms and legs, loss of consciousness or awareness, and psychic symptoms such as fear, anxiety, or deja vu.
Experimentally, melatonin, a hormone that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. has been found to attenuate seizures, and it is most effective in the treatment of juvenile intractable epilepsy.
Melatonin also processed additional benefits include improved physical, emotional, cognitive, and social functions.
On the other hand, melatonin has been shown to induce electroencephalographic abnormalities in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and increase seizure activity in neurologically disabled children.
The hormone showed very low toxicity in clinical practice, according to the study by the Department of Pathophysiology, Medical University, PL 20-090 Lublin, Jaczewskiego 8, Poland(22).
Ashwagandha also is known as Withania somnifera is a nightshade plant in the genus of Withania, belonging to the family Solanaceae, native to the dry parts of India, North Africa, Middle East, and the Mediterranean.
The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine over 3000 years to treat tumors and tubercular glands, carbuncles, memory loss, and ulcers and considered as anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.
In the urgency to discover a natural ingredient for the management of the neurological disorder, researchers investigated the effect of Withania somnifera (WS) root extract and withanolide A (WA) in the management of temporal lobe epilepsy.
According to the tested analysis, in the epileptic test group of rats, levels of antioxidants are found to substantially decrease compared to the increase of the levels of peroxide.
Oxidative stress caused by an imbalance of the ratio of antioxidants and free radicals in the tested rats, induced significant decrease levels of proteins associated with systemic inflammation, compared to the increase of pro-apoptotic proteins.
Moreover, the epileptic condition of the tested rats also showed to increase the muscarinic receptor binding, which leads to reduced function of transduction of cholinergic signals and increases mRNA expression involved of the inhibition of the cell growth in the cerebral cortex.
However, the administration of the WS reversed the altered muscarinic receptor expression, oxidative stress, and resultant derailment in cell signaling in experimental rats.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "Withania somnifera and withanolide A play important roles in central muscarinic receptor functional balance and activation of the antioxidant system in the cerebral cortex in temporal lobe epilepsy".
Taken altogether, Ashwagandha may be considered supplements for the management of epilepsy, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
