Liver toxicity or hepatotoxicity is a condition that the liver is damaged by chemical substances, including drug-induced liver injury is a cause of acute and chronic liver disease.
The liver is the largest internal organ not only processes the function in filtering the blood coming from the intestine before passing them to other parts of the body but also secretes bile that aids the function of the digestive system in digest food, build strong cell membranes, production of vitamin D and steroid hormones.
Symptoms of liver toxicity may include stomach pain, upset stomach, persistent tiredness, dark-colored urine but light-colored bowel movements, particularly in the expression of jaundice found in the skin and eyes.
Other researchers suggested that psychological symptoms such as stress, anxiety and depression are also found in patients with liver toxicity.
The most common causes of liver toxicity are associated with drugs.
According to a critical analysis of the hepatotoxicity of drugs in LiverTox, 53% of drugs had at least one case report of convincing reports of liver injury and 48 drugs had more than 50 case reports.
Believe it or not, amoxicillin-clavulanate has been found to induce liver toxicity in approximately one out of 2300 users.
However, according to the study published by the Journal of Phytopharmacology, live toxicity can also be caused by interruption of the liver function in metabolizing substances.
Dr. Meagan Thompson, the lead scientist wrote, " The human liver metabolizes substances via oxidation, reduction, hydration, hydrolysis, condensation, conjugation, or isomerization. Interruption of these processes can lead to hepatotoxicity, causing liver cancer, cirrhosis, and Hepatitis C, respectively".
And "Such diseases are responsible for higher mortality rates worldwide. The present review focuses on highlighting various plants that are hepatoprotective, hepatotoxic and the challenges faced by phytopharmaceuticals".
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.
On finding a natural compound for the treatment of liver toxicity scientists evaluated the therapeutic potential of Curcuma longa (200mgkg-1, po) and curcumin (80mgkg-1, po) for their hepatoprotective efficacy against mercuric chloride (HgCl2: 12μmolkg-1, ip; once only) hepatotoxicity.
According to the results from the testes assays, therapy of Curcuma longa or curcumin restored the HgCl2 administration that alters various biochemical parameters, including transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, bilirubin, gamma-glutamyl transferase, triglycerides, and cholesterol contents.
Furthermore, therapy of Curcuma longa extract or curcumin also inhibited a concomitant decline in the serum of protein and albumin concentration an indication of liver injury.
The findings suggested that Curcuma longa extract or curcumin processed the ability to alleviate the hepatotoxic effects caused by HgCl2 in rats.
In order to reveal more information about turmeric detoxed activity, researchers examined the protective effect of turmeric extract against doxorubicin (DOX)-induced liver toxicity in rats.
According to the tested assays, turmeric extract exerted multiple therapeutic activities that ameliorative effect against DOX-induced the increased serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, nitric oxide, albumin in liver tissue
According to the Biochemical and histopathological findings, turmeric extract has multiple therapeutic activities by ameliorating the effect against DOX-induced hepatotoxicity.
Dr. Mohamad RH, the lead scientist said, "The present findings conclude that the turmeric extract has multiple therapeutic activities that block the hepatic....toxicities".
Taken altogether, turmeric processed a high amount of bioactive compound curcumin 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.

Chamomile, The Whole Herb medicine for Wound Healing
Herbal chamomile expressed significantly wound healing effect against injure and bacterial invasion induced more damage to the wound.
According to the Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, C. nobile therapy at 5% C. nobile ointment was an effective antibacterial activity and accelerated the progression of wound healing, in vivo.
Chamomile is also known as camomile, common name of many species daisy-like plants in the family Asteraceae, used in traditional medicine as antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory constituents and to treat menstrual cramps and sleep disorders, reduce cramping and spastic pain in the bowels, relieve excessive gas and bloating in the intestine, etc.
Wound healing is a natural stage of recover of body injure.
In a Wistar male rats (210.0±4.2 g) divided into five groups: negative control group (NCG) without diabetes; positive control group (PCG) with DM (alloxan, 45 mg/kg) study, groups treated with chamomile extract optimize the healing of traumatic oral ulcers in diabetic rats through the reduction of apoptosis in the regulated immune system.
The review of skin wound healing of phytomedicine, Dr. Pazyar N, the lead author said, " The healing process proceeds in four phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation and remodeling" and " Phytomedicine presents remedies, which possess significant pharmacological effects. It is popular amongst the general population in regions all over the world. Phytotherapeutic agents have been largely used for cutaneous wound healing.....(included chamomile".
The Roskilde Universitet, in the support of the wound healing effect of chamomile suggested the extract of M. chamomilla administered topically has wound healing potential in the linear incisional wound, according to an animal study.
Other studies also showed that chamomile proved effective in the treatment of oral mucositis in a hamster model.
Taking all together, chamomile no doubt has consisted of significant wound healing effects by exhibited the increased wound-breaking strength, protein collage content through topical administration.
However, well-designed clinical studies are needed to confirm the clinical efficacy of this medicine in humans.

Green Tea (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), The Potential Lewy Body Disease Inhibitor, Scientists Discover
Green tea may have a potential effect in the regulation of Lewy bodies against the onset of Lewy body disease, some scientists suggested.
Lewy body disease is one of a common form of neurodegenerative diseases occurring in the elderly characterized by mutation of the Lewy bodies as a result of the abnormal structure of Lewy bodies, building up in areas of the brain.
Lewy bodies, mainly composed of α-synuclein (αS), are pathological hallmarks of Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies.
People with building up of Lewy body in most cases also have Alzheimer's disease, causing reduced mental ability, including symptoms of visual hallucinations, and changes in alertness and attention.
Some patients with the condition are also experiencing symptoms of rigid muscles, slow movement, and tremors, the hallmarks of Parkinson's disease.
Researchers do not know why the elderly with the same health conditions and family history, some are susceptible to the early onset of the disease while others do not. However, they do know that certain risk factors such as old age, family history, and male gender are associated with the onset of Lewy body disease.
Some researchers also believe due to the severity of brain damage, patients with the condition also express certain mental instability including aggressive behavior, depression and worsening of parkinsonian-like symptoms.
A genetic alternation such as SNCA or SNCB gene mutations is also found in patients with the disease.
According to the My Virtual Medical Center, Lewy bodies is the third most frequent cause of dementia in older adults and accounts for 15–35% of all dementias
Green tea, a precious drink processes number of health benefits known to almost everyone in Asia and the Western world.
In the study of N-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)- and 6-hydroxydopamine-induced neurodegeneration in rodents and nonhuman primates with the increased presence of iron and alpha-synuclein in the SNpc, researchers found that application of green tea catechin polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate exerts a significant effect as an iron chelator in protecting the brain against neurotoxins by inhibiting the increased presence of iron and alpha-synuclein in the SNpc.
Pretreatment of green tea on N-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)- and 6-hydroxydopamine-induced neurodegeneration in rodents was also found to demonstrate the high levels of antioxidant activity in preventing the accumulation of iron and alpha-synuclein in SNpc.
Dr. Mandel S, the lead author suggested that a combination of iron chelation and antioxidant therapy might be a significant approach to neuroprotection in PD and other neurodegenerative diseases, including Lewy body disease.
Furthermore, in the concerns of the primary α-synucleinopathgenic expression in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies and multiple system atrophy, researchers at the Lanzhou University, launched an investigation to examine whether green tea (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) can inhibit the fibrillation of αS.
After taking into account co and confounders, researchers showed that
* EGCG displays a potential effect in remodeling the αS fibrils and breaking the initially ordered pattern by reducing the β-sheet content.
* EGCG can also break the Greek confirmation of αS by the disappeared H-bond in the secondary structure of turn.
Dr. Liu X, the lead author at the end of the study said, "The results from our study can not only reveal the specific interaction between EGCG and β-sheet-rich fibrils of αS, but also provide useful guidance for the discovery of other potential inhibitors".
In other words, green tea EGCG may be considered a primary target for extracting the pharmaceutical inhibitor for the treatment of Lewy body disease.
Moreover, in the differentiation of the EGCG effect in patients with Lewy body disease, researchers at the Kanazawa University Graduate School of Medical Science conducted an evaluation to examine
EGCG effect on the transient 'active' oligomers (AOs),
At the final report, researchers found that
* EGCG facilitates the fibril formation and thus eliminating the toxic AOs.
* Also, EGCG suppresses the membrane disrupting radiating amyloid fibril formation on the surface of liposomal membranes, thus protecting the cells against the initiation of AOs.
Dr. Yang JE, the lead wrote in the summary," EGCG has been suggested to exhibit its protective effect against the αS-mediated cytotoxicity by not only producing the off-pathway 'compact' oligomers but also facilitating the conversion of 'active' oligomers into amyloid fibrils".
Taken altogether, green tea and its bioactive compound EGCG may have a potential effect in treating Lewy body disease by preventing the overexpression of α-synuclein (αS) accumulation in the brain by either inhibiting the oligomers or converting the oligomers into amyloid fibrils.

Healthy Food Cranberry, the Natural Anti-Inflammatory Remedy
Inflammation is a process of the immune system that responds to harmful pathogens.
Inflammation can be acute or chronic. In the acute phase of infection, the immune system after receiving information from the neurons, macrophages, the largest white blood cells in the first line of defense stimulate the production of blood palette to cover the wound and the production of inflammatory cytokines to kill off micro-organisms, leading to symptoms of fever, redness, and swelling.
However, in some cases, the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines may damage nearby healthy cells and tissues, causing the formation of scars.
In severe cases, a protein with duo functions in the production of pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines which produce anti-inflammatory cytokines under normal condition also switch to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Most cases of acute inflammatory are resolved within a few days without causing damage to the wound tissues. However, if the immune first line of defense can not completely destroy the invaders within a period of 3 to 8 weeks, it will compromise, leading to low-grade chronic inflammation.
Diseases associated with low-grade chronic inflammation include diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer.
Dr. Duprez DA, the lead scientist at the University of Minnesota.in the investigation of inflammatory makers and chronic inflammation wrote, "Numerous studies have shown that high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), one of the most frequently studied inflammatory markers, is associated with the chronic inflammatory-related disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and mortality [1]. While hs-CRP is a single marker of inflammation".
In other words, if you have a chronic inflammatory disease, your levels of hsCRP are much high compared to people who do not.
Conventionally, treatment of acute phase inflammation is to manage inflammation and prevent the risk of long-term damage, including anti-inflammatory nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) which can be bought without a prescription.
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 diseases associated with inflammation, researchers examined the effect of the effects of freeze-dried cranberry powder on anti-inflammation and lipid profiles.
The study included a total of 40 Sprague-Dawley male rats (6-weeks-old) were equally divided into the following five groups: 1) normal diet group + saline (NC); 2) atherogenic diet + saline (HFC); 3) atherogenic diet + LPS (HL); 4) atherogenic diet with 5% cranberry power + LPS (C5); 5) atherogenic diet with 10% cranberry power + LPS (C10).
Based on the analysis after LPS (0.5 mg/kg) was injected into the abdominal cavities of rats 18 hours prior to sacrifice, researchers found that* C5 rats treated by atherogenic diet with 5% cranberry power + LPS showed a mean serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol level in C5 rats was significantly higher compared to those in NC and HL rats.
* The mean serum levels of CRP and IL-1β associated with pro-inflammatory marker and expression were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the cranberry powder groups compared to HL rats.
* Furthermore, levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines expressed by the serum IL-10 and NO showed 29% and 88% higher mean values in the C5 group and 49% and 24% higher in the C10 group than those in the HL group, respectively.
In other words, cranberry powder protects the Sprague-Dawley male rats induced inflammation by elevating the levels of anti-inflammatory and lowering the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Collectively, researchers wrote, " freeze-dried cranberry powder may have beneficial effects on cardiovascular diseases by modifying serum lipids and the early inflammatory response."
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered an anti-inflammatory remedy, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

* The mean serum levels of CRP and IL-1β associated with pro-inflammatory marker and expression were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the cranberry powder groups compared to HL rats.
* Furthermore, levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines expressed by the serum IL-10 and NO showed 29% and 88% higher mean values in the C5 group and 49% and 24% higher in the C10 group than those in the HL group, respectively.
In other words, cranberry powder protects the Sprague-Dawley male rats induced inflammation by elevating the levels of anti-inflammatory and lowering the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Collectively, researchers wrote, " freeze-dried cranberry powder may have beneficial effects on cardiovascular diseases by modifying serum lipids and the early inflammatory response."
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered an anti-inflammatory remedy, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Ashwagandha May Cause Thyrotoxicosis, Study Suggests
Thyroid disease is a condition or malfunction of the thyroid. Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is overactive and produces too much thyroid hormones. Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is underactive and produces very little thyroid hormones.
The thyroid gland is an endocrine gland located in the neck, consisting of two lobes connected by an isthmus with functions to secrete thyroid hormones (thyroxine/T4 and triiodothyronine/T3), and calcitonin.
Thyroid hormones play an important role in metabolism by stimulating almost every tissue in the body to produce proteins and increasing the amount of oxygen to the cells.
Abnormal thyroid hormone production can be diagnosed by examining whether the thyroid gland is enlarged or by taking a blood test or/and a radioactive iodine uptake test.
Thyrotoxicosis is a medical condition caused by an excess of thyroid hormone in the body.
More precisely, in thyrotoxicosis, patients experience a low level of thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH in the bloodstream.
The most common treatment of thyrotoxicosis is the use of radioactive iodine and antithyroid medication, following by careful follow-up.
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.
The Sectie Geneesmiddelenbewaking in Postbus in examining the case of a 32-year-old healthy woman developed thyrotoxicosis induced symptoms chronic fatigue while taking capsules that contained ashwagandha herbal extract suggested* Taking ashwagandha herbal extract in reduced doses or occasionally do not cause thyrotoxicosis
* However, overdoses of ashwagandha herbal extract can induce clinical symptoms indicative of thyrotoxicosis.
* Discontinued ashwagandha herbal extract can resolve the symptoms spontaneously, according to the laboratory values.
The incidence also has been proved in the animal studies as ashwagandha can increase serum concentrations of thyroid hormones.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "thyrotoxicosis is a potentially serious side effect of ashwagandha".
Taken altogether, Ashwagandha overdose may induce thyrotoxicosis, pending to the result of larger sample size and multicenter study

Herbal Chaste tree berry, the Male Contraceptive Functional Food
Recent study by a renowned institute suggested that Chaste tree berry may have a potential in improved male infertility as a contraceptive functional food.
Infertility is condition of inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse. It affects over 5 millions couple alone in the U. S. and many times more in the world. Because of unawareness of treatments, only 10% seeks help from professional specialist.
Chaste tree berry is a species of Vitex agnus-castus, genus Vitex, belonging to the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region, used in herbal medicine for thousands of year as anaphrodisiac herb and considered as Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.
According to the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, flavonoid-rich seed extracts of Chaste tree berry oral administration, promoted sperm numbers dwindled and slackness in their motility of that may impede fertility.
In extract fed male rats with four different concentrations after 15 days, treatment of all concentrations displayed a drop in weight with a marginal chance of fructose in seminal vesicles and epididymal alpha-glucosidase, probably involved in reducing the fertilizing ability of the spermatozoa.
Dr. Das S, the lead author said, "the seedextracts of V. negundo interfere with male reproductive function without producing adverse toxicity in other vital organs".
Interestingly, the same extract used in testing the antiandrogenic effects in dog model, administrated dogs showed a antagonized androgen action of exogenous testosterone on the male reproductive system, reducing sexual design and impeded sperm production and mobility.
In the duration of treatment of 30 and 60 days, the extract causes a disruption of the latter stages of spermatogenesis with devoid of spermatozoa passed through epididymides.
Furthermore, when the extract used combination with testosterone propionate, a ester of propionic acid,. dogs maintained the viability of spermatozoa with significantly increased the cellular heights of epididymides in compared non treatment dogs.
Taking together, chaste tree berry intake may be acted as infertile substance for male to prevent unwanted pregnancy of female partner, but the use of the herbal medicine for contraceptive purpose should only recommended by herbalists.

Herbal Cleaver(Galium aparine),the Potential Antioxidant Remedy
Antioxidants are stable atom that plays a critical role in protecting the body against the attack of free radicals in the induction of oxidative stress.
In other words, antioxidants inhibited the onset of free radical before they can cause a chain reaction in facilitating the protein, lipid and cell damage.
Antioxidants can either produced by the liver or intake from dietary sources. Under normal conditions, antioxidant enzymes produced by the body in a healthy individual are good enough to counter the bombardment of free radical attacks.
However, in people with a weakened immune system, intake of dietary sources of antioxidants may be necessary.
Free radicals are highly reactive molecules with an unpaired electron on the outer ring of the atom.
Due to its nature to become stable, free radicals readily to donate or steal an electron from other molecules, leading to the chain of domino's effect that can not be stopped until either the electrons are paired or inhibited by antioxidants.
This chain of reaction is the cause of oxidative stress, a condition is associated with either overexpression of free radicals or depletion of antioxidant enzymes produced by the host organs.
Overexpression of free radicals is known to cause damage in contributing to the etiology of many chronic health problems such as cardiovascular and inflammatory disease, cataracts, and cancer.
Oxidative stress is a result of an imbalance of the ratio of free radicals and antioxidants in the body.
Cleaver is a herbaceous annual plant, genus Galium, belonging to the family Rubiaceae, native to North America and Eurasia. The herb has been used over thousands of years in herbal and traditional medicine as mild diuretic and blood and lymphatic cleanser and to treat psoriasis, skin conditions, glands, tonsillitis, bladder infections, prevent small kidney stone, etc.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of diseases associated with oxidative stress, researchers compared the phenolic content and the antioxidant activity of Anthyllis vulneraria L., Fuchsia sp., Galium mollugo L., and Veronica beccabunga L.
According to the chemical analysis, the Galium mollugo polyphenol tannin, and flavonoid contents are 1.77 ± 0.05, 0.49 ± 0.04 and 0.16 ± 0.06 g/100 g dry weight) compared to those of Fuchsia species of 7.40 ± 0.8, 5.62 ± 0.7 and 0.72 ± 0.1 g/100 g dry weight and Anthyllis vulneraria (0.68 ± 0.02, 0.17 ± 0.03 and 0.45 ± 0.01 g/100 g dry weight., respectively.
More precisely, herbal cleaver(Galium aparine) showed a higher total polyphenol, tannin, and flavonoid contents than A. vulneraria but lower, compared to those of Fuchsia sp.
In other words, all antioxidant compounds found in herbal cleaver(Galium aparine) work together to exert anti-free radical activity in the stimulation of the onset of oxidative stress.
Taken altogether, Cleaver processed an antioxidant activity against the risk of oxidative stress, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
