In this sense, the aim of this work was to evaluate the anticancer and neuroprotective effects of the triterpene glycosides from sea cucumber &lt;em&gt;Holothuria imitans&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Triterpene glycosides were separated and purified by Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Their structures were deduced by spectral analysis and chemical evidence. Cytotoxic activity was evaluated using normal African green monkey kidney epithelial cell line (VERO) and three cancer cell lines: cancer gastric (MKN-28), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) and lung carcinoma (A-549). Besides, the neuroprotective effect was studied using the Cath.a-differentiated (CAD) cell line and human glial (Oligodendrocytic) hybrid cell line (MO3.13). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Two triterpene glycosides (Fuscocineroside C and Scabraside D) were isolated, which showed low cytotoxic activity against VERO cell line, and high cytotoxic activity against lines MKN-28, MCF-7 and A-549 cells, with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;between the ranges of 0.92 μmol/L to 2.61 μmol/L. The isolated triterpene glycosides showed the ability to regain mitochondrial viability in CAD and MO3.13 cells treated with neurotoxin (C2-ceramide) with statistically significant results (p&amp;lt;0.05).&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The triterpene glycosides Fuscocineroside C and Scabraside D isolated from sea cucumber Holothuria imitans show anticancer and neuroprotective potential and may be considered promising active principles for anticancer and neuroprotective drugs.&lt;/p&gt;

The aim of this investigation was to determine the anxiolytic-like effect of essential oils extracted from &lt;em&gt;Lippia alba &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em&gt;Lippia&lt;/em&gt; citriodora. &lt;strong&gt;Methods&lt;/strong&gt;: The oil was extracted by hydro-distillation for 3 hours using a modified Clevenger-type apparatus and then chemical composition was investigated by gas chromatography analysis (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Moreover, a randomized experimental trial was conducted, where 95 participants were divided into 3 groups, comprising a waiting list control group and two experimental groups treated with essential oils by inhalation. The anxiety index was evaluated by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Measures were taken two times: pretest and posttest. &lt;strong&gt;Results&lt;/strong&gt;: chemical analysis showed that carvone was the main component (64.5%) for Lippia alba essential oil and geranial (39.8%) for&lt;em&gt; Lippia citriodora&lt;/em&gt;. State and Trait anxiety scores showed a decrease in posttest study phase in comparison with pretest in all experimental groups (p&amp;lt;0.05). Cohen's D and Hedges’ G scores show a large size effect in state anxiety for experimental group treated with Lippia alba while moderate changes were found for the rest of variables in all experimental groups.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;: the essential oils extracted from &lt;em&gt;Lippia alba &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Lippia &lt;/em&gt;citriodora may be useful as a mean to counteract anxiety, specifically state anxiety showing short-terms benefits.&lt;/p&gt;
