Studies conducted on plant-based leads have yielded promising therapeutic activities, prompting researchers to remain vigilant in exploring further plant-based studies. Research has shown that phytochemicals found in the roots, leaves, and flowers of Jasminum sambac &lt;em&gt;(J.sambac&lt;/em&gt;) have demonstrated various active functions, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and anxiolytic effects. The progress made in nanoparticle drug delivery systems for cancer treatment is noteworthy as it allows for higher doses of medication to be delivered directly to cancer cells while minimising the negative impact on healthy cells. Various reports showcase the nanoparticle synthesis of &lt;em&gt;J.sambac&lt;/em&gt; for screening multiple diseases. This review provides an overview of cancer and the challenges of available treatments while exploring the potential of &lt;em&gt;J.sambac&lt;/em&gt; for its anticancer, cytotoxic, and antioxidant properties. Furthermore, it sheds light on the recent advances made in nanoparticle formulations of Jasminum sambac for cancer and other ailments. Disseminating these updates could encourage additional exploration into the potential anti-cancer properties of&lt;em&gt; J.sambac &lt;/em&gt;and foster the development of nanoparticles for more effective cancer treatment.&lt;/p&gt;

However, the plant has not been explored much. In the present scenario of drug resistance and toxicity associated with available drugs, there is a need for elaborated studies of plants like &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argeneta&lt;/em&gt; which had been used as folk medicines. &lt;strong&gt;Aim and Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; The present article is focused on reviewing the ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry, traditional usage, biological activities, of &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; which has been used in traditional medicinal system for ages. The aim of the study was to assess the ethnopharmacological usage of this plant and to explore therapeutic potentials and future opportunities for research. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Information on the traditional usage and studies of the &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; was gathered from from various journals, MSc dissertation, conference abstract, local books. Various search engines including Google Scholar, Baidu Scholar, Elsevier, ACS, Pubmed, Web of Science, CNKI and EMBASE were used to collect the information along with libraries. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; has played an important role in traditional medicines in Algeria, Portugal, Israel and Jordan. The aerial parts of this plant are used as diuretics in Algerian traditional medicines and are used as antiurolithiasis. Leaf decoction of this plant is also used as diuretic. &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; has been used as analgesic, treatment of stomach ulcer, anorexia, and flatulence in Portugal. Scientific studies on extracts of &lt;em&gt;Paronychia&lt;/em&gt; revealed a wide range of pharmacological activities including anti-microbial activity, anti-oxidant, nephroprotective activity. Moreover, few reports have given contradictory data for usage of &lt;em&gt;Paronychia &lt;/em&gt;when compared with its traditional usage. As in the case of alpha-amylase inhibitory efficacy of PA, it was observed that PA inhibits alpha-amylase activity but later on it was proven that PA does not have a hypoglycemic effect. Main bioactive metabolites present in this plant include alkaloids, flavonoids, volatile oils, etc. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on this review, there are evidences from various studies regarding pharmacological effects of this plant as nephroprotective, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial activity. Some indications from &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;studies have confirmed the inhibitory activity of this plant extract against alpha amylase enzyme. The available literature showed that most of the activities of the &lt;em&gt;Paronychia&lt;/em&gt; can be accredited to the flavonoids present in them. Data regarding mechanisms of action of this plant along with pharmacokinetics, toxicology studies is still limited, which indicate the need of such studies for the clinical usage of this plant.&lt;/p&gt;

The Plants of genus Anthemis have been known to have anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities due to their rich contents of important physiological and biological compounds. They are referred to as nature’s biological response modifier’s and are involved in energy transfer, photosensitization and morphogenesis. Several clinical studies have shown that people who take diets rich in flavonoids and sesquiterpenes have reduced risk of developing cancer and cardiovascular diseases. This article covers most of constituents of plants of genus Anthemis reported from 2002 up to 2018. Furthermore, the biological activities of plants of genus Anthemis will be presented.&lt;/p&gt;

Various types of secondary metabolites were reported in A. &lt;em&gt;monosperma &lt;/em&gt;plants from different localities. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The current study was planned aiming to investigate the influence of stage of development on the composition, antimicrobial, antiinflammatory and antioxidant activities of the essential oil derived from the aerial parts of the Libyan plants. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; A. &lt;em&gt;monosperma&lt;/em&gt; volatiles were hydro-distilled from aerial parts of Libyan plants, collected at different stages of growth: before flowering (A1), and at beginning (A2) and by the end (A3) of flowering stage. Yields ranged from 0.16-0.26 ml/100g fresh material (A3, highest). GC/FID and GC/MS analyses were performed. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Among 16-20 identified components (97.63-99.00% of total composition), 11 were common in all samples. A1 and A2 showed close amounts of hydrocarbons (63.56 and 66.55%), but lesser than A3 (88.36%); monoterpenoids were mainly represented by sabinene (13.15-22.85%), &amp;beta;-pinene (9.00-24.03%) and &amp;beta;-cis-ocimene (3.73-12.92%); while sesquiterpenoids appeared absent. Among oxygenated components (11.29, 31.08 and 35.44 % in A3, A2 and A1), bornyl acetate was the major monoterpenoid (8.00-31.00%, highest in A1); and the sesquiterpenoid, &amp;beta;-eudesmol (8.01%) was detected in A2 only. Moreover, A2 demonstrated significant antifungal effect against &lt;em&gt;Aspergillus fumigatus&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Geotricum candidum &lt;/em&gt;(MIC 0.98 and 0.24 &amp;mu;g/ml). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; A3 exerted the highest anti-inflammatory activity as compared to the other volatiles. A1 restored the reduced blood GHS level in diabetic animals almost as efficiently as Vitamin E. The antioxidant activity of the volatiles is decreased during the flowering stage, being the highest before flowering (A1); this could be associated to the decreasing bornyl acetate content of the samples.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">578</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Soheir Mohamed El Zalabani&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt; , Soad Hanna Tadros&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Abeer Mohamed El Sayed&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Areej Almaktouf Daboub &lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; and Amany Amen Sleem&lt;sup&gt;3 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Tasmannia lanceolata &lt;/em&gt;(Tasmanian pepper berry) has a high anti-oxidant capacity and has documented therapeutic properties for a variety of pathogenic diseases. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Solvent extracts of &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata &lt;/em&gt;berry and leaf were investigated for the ability to block &lt;em&gt;G. duodenalis&lt;/em&gt; growth. The IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of the extracts which displayed inhibitory activity were determined to quantify and compare their efficacies. Toxicity was determined using the &lt;em&gt;Artemia franciscana&lt;/em&gt; nauplii bioassay. Active extracts were analysed by non-targeted HPLC-QTOF mass spectroscopy (with screening against 3 compound databases) for the identification and characterisation of individual components in crude plant extracts. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Methanolic, aqueous and ethyl acetate &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata &lt;/em&gt;berry and leaf extracts displayed potent &lt;em&gt;G. duodenalis&lt;/em&gt; growth inhibitory activity. The methanolic extracts were the most potent growth inhibitors with IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values of approximately 180 &amp;micro;g/ml and 420 &amp;micro;g/ml for the berry and leaf methanolic extracts respectively. The aqueous, ethyl acetate, chloroform and hexane extracts also inhibited &lt;em&gt;G. duodenalis&lt;/em&gt; growth, albeit with lower potency. HPLC-QTOF mass spectroscopy analysis of the extracts identified 45 compounds which were present in all &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata &lt;/em&gt;berry extracts. Forty of these were putatively identified by screening against 3 compound databases. All &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata&lt;/em&gt; berry and leafextracts were nontoxic in the &lt;em&gt;Artemia fransiscana&lt;/em&gt; bioassay. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The low toxicity of the &lt;em&gt;T. lanceolata&lt;/em&gt; extracts and their potent &lt;em&gt;G. duodenalis&lt;/em&gt; growth inhibitory bioactivity indicates their potential as medicinal agents in the treatment and prevention of this disease.&lt;/p&gt;

Blood glucose levels and body weight were monitored at specific time intervals, and different biochemical parameters, serum cholesterol, serum triglyceride, high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein were also assessed in the experimental animals.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Oral administration of hydroethanolic root extracts of&lt;em&gt; Rhus mysurensis&lt;/em&gt; (HERM) 400 and 800 mg/kg for 21 days significantly decreased the blood glucose level and considerably increased the body weight of diabetic induced rats. Daily oral treatment with HERM for 3 weeks resulted in reduced serum cholesterol, and triglycerides and improved HDL-cholesterol levels when compared to the diabetic control group. HERM significantly decreased thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and significantly increased superoxide dismutase and catalase in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats at the end of 21 days of treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Hydroethanolic root extract of &lt;em&gt;Rhus mysurensis&lt;/em&gt; showed significant anti-diabetic, hypolipidemic and anti-oxidant activities, which provide the scientific proof for its traditional claims. The results also put forward that the HERM is promising for development of standardized phytomedicine for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Key words: &lt;/strong&gt;Anti-diabetic, anti-oxidant, hypolipidemic, &lt;em&gt;Rhus mysurensis&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sanwar Mal Lamba&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Kunjbihari Sulakhiya&lt;sup&gt;1#&lt;/sup&gt;, Parveen Kumar&lt;sup&gt;1#*&lt;/sup&gt;, Mangala Lahkar&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Chandana C.
