It is loaded in different secondary metabolites such as steroidal saponins, flavonoids, diterpenoids, tannins, and carotenoids, which all play a major role in its pharmacological activities. Researchers have shown that it can be useful in the treatment of inflammation, microbial infections, oxidative stress, cancer, and liver diseases. even with these benefits there remains a shortage of clinical trials, toxicity assessment, and standardized extraction procedures to facilitate its application in herbal drug industry in a safe manner. One of the most striking features of &lt;em&gt;Dioscorea bulbifera&lt;/em&gt; is its antimicrobial activity especially in the fight against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. also, studies done on anticancer activity are actively being conducted with some compounds being reported to induce apoptosis in cancer cells and suppress the growth of tumour. However, talking about its drawbacks some diterpenoid compounds such as diosbulbin A have been reported to show hepatotoxicity in humans and hence further studies are required to determine its safety for therapeutic purposes. The other significant challenge to developing this plant as a standard drug is its variability in chemical composition. The bioactive content is dependent on its cultivation, so it is quite a challenge to control for consistent potency. Sophisticated analytical methods such as HPLC and LC-MS could be utilized to overcome this and contemporary drug delivery systems like nano-formulations could enhance its absorption and bioavailability. Bringing together the ancient herbal knowledge and new scientific inquiry might reveal even greater therapeutic applications of the plant constituents. In the future the studies need to penetrate deeply into its safety, carry out extensive clinical trials, and explore sustainable mechanisms for massproducing its major compounds. With additional studies,&lt;em&gt; Dioscorea bulbifera&lt;/em&gt; could become a prominent natural medicine, providing solutions for numerous health conditions while maintaining its traditional medicinal significance.&lt;/p&gt;

Other pathogens for example those causing malaria, tuberculosis and leprosy, as well as parasitic worms can be as chronic infections and impaired nutrition, growth, cognitive development and fertility. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;The aim of this research was to screen extracts from the three plants for phytochemicals. This includesthe isolation and identification of bioactive compounds of &lt;em&gt;Elephantorrhiza elephantina&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt;In this study, an ethnomedicinal survey, phytochemical analysis, isolation, and identification of bioactive compounds were conducted in &lt;em&gt;Elephantorrhiza elephantina&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Pentanisia prunelloides&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Dioscorea sylvatica&lt;/em&gt; plant species used in the treatment of elephantiasis in most parts of the eastern Free State using standard methods. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt;The ethnobotanical survey documented 12 medicinal plants that are used to treat lymphatic filariasis. &lt;em&gt;Elephantorrhiza elephantina&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Pentanisia prunelloides&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Dioscorea sylvatica&lt;/em&gt; were the three most used plant species. All three plants tested positive for the presence of tannins, saponins, flavonoids, steroids, terpenoids, glycosides, anthraquinones and alkaloids. Four compounds: acetyl salicylic acid, benzoic acid, resorcinol and nonanedioic acid were identified from&lt;em&gt; E. elephantina&lt;/em&gt; rhizome. Discussion:Amongst 12 documented plant species, &lt;em&gt;E. elephantina, P. prunelloides&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;D. sylvatica &lt;/em&gt;were the most frequently used plants and were selected for isolation and characterisation of bioactive compounds. Acetyl salicylic acid, benzoic acid, resorcinol and nonanediotic acid were isolated and identified from the methanol extract from&lt;em&gt; E. elephantina&lt;/em&gt; rhizome. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt;The presence or existence of isolated phenolic-flavonoids in&lt;em&gt; E. elephantin&lt;/em&gt; demonstrated the basis for utilising it based on the isolated compounds&lt;/p&gt;

Hermannia genus is a significant traditional herbal medicine. This review evaluates the medicinal uses, phytochemistry and pharmacological properties of plants from the genus Hermannia genus based on available research. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Studies accessed from online research databases were systematically selected and analysed to construct a comprehensive review of the medicinal uses, phytochemistry and pharmacological properties of plants from the genus. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Hermannia species are used in traditional medicine to treat or manage; respiratory conditions, gastrointestinal issues, skin conditions, sexually transmitted infections, and diabetes. Scientific findings also discovered promising pharmacological activities within members of the genus such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiabetic and anticancer activities. To date, over 30 types of secondary metabolites have been identified from the genus, including the 2 pure compounds that were isolated and tested for pharmacological activities. Further research must prioritize other unexplored species of the genus and efficacy and mechanism of action studies on isolated compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The genus Hermannia is important in the treatment of diseases of high public health concern. The pharmacological studies and presence of secondary metabolites and bioactive compounds further validates the traditional uses of the genus. Therefore, the findings suggest that the genus has species that may serve as candidates for novel drug discovery for the treatment of various illnesses. Efficacy and mechanism of action studies still need to be conducted on isolated compounds and other unexplored species of the genus.&lt;/p&gt;

The investigation of substances produced by sponges has been extensively researched to identify their pharmacological properties. Marine sponges, which are part of the phylum Porifera, are thought to be the main source of marine natural products. Sponges are multicellular organisms that have a number of pores and channels for exchanging water; the secondary metabolites they create are in turn influenced by their specific environmental circumstances. Natural products such as lipids, terpenoids, peptides, alkaloids, and steroids are abundant in the marine sponge genus Tectitethya crypta. These compounds have unique chemical structures and have shown promising biological activities, making them ideal candidates for the development of novel drugs to treat various ailments. Tectitethya crypta is a sessile filter-feeder that produces a variety of bioactive compounds, including nucleosides and other secondary metabolites. This article reviews the biology and chemistry of Tectitethya crypta and serves as an introduction to the organism. We discuss the taxonomic classification, morphology, and microenvironment of the sponge, as well as the chemical structures and biological activities of its bioactive compounds. Tectitethya crypta was the source for the development of vidarabine, ara-C, and gemcitabine, which are used to treat viruses and cancer, respectively. We discussed about how these molecules may be used to treat parasitic and infectious disorders.&lt;/p&gt;

Yet, there is a considerable growth in the demand for the natural/herbal products as well due to their low level of side effects, cost efficiency and their multiple inhibition properties. Based on this, the present research works with an objective to examine the bioactive components, &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; anti-inflammatory and in vivo antiinflammatory behaviour of the green marine macro algae &lt;em&gt;Valoniopsis pachynema &lt;/em&gt;using zebra fish (Danio rerio) larvae as a skin inflammation model. In this study, the secondary metabolites are extracted using methanol solvent from the marine green seaweed, &lt;em&gt;V. pachynema&lt;/em&gt; using the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis and these are further evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects. Further screening process is accomplished for the&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;anti-inflammatory activity by the albumin-denaturation inhibition. Results from concentration-dependent analysis is documented. The efficacy, therapeutic efficacy, and genotoxicity of the compound Valp at various concentrations are determined by recapitulating the pathophysiology of Skin inflammation in Zebrafish larvae. In evaluating the efficiency of the study, Valp at 1 pg, 10 pg, 100 pg are observed and progressed for the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy and genotoxicity. In the assessment of genotoxicity, the gene expression of mgmt gene is observed to be in control level at Valp 100 pg treated group confirming no genotoxicity. According to the results obtained, the green seaweed&lt;em&gt; V. pachynema&lt;/em&gt; can be potentially explored as an effectual anti-inflammatory agent for its bio-functionalities&lt;/p&gt;

Several medicinal plants locally have been recognized for their anti-inflammatory properties and are traditionally used to help treat respiratory diseases. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the diseases known as the high cause of death globally, and one of the treatment efforts is by using anti-inflammatory drugs. In developing alternative remedies for COPD, this review summarizes the potential of Indonesian medicinal plants and their ingredients known to have an anti-inflammatory activity to develop alternative remedies for COPD. Primarily, we focus on the medicinal plants that have been scientifically proven to pose some biological activities, such as legetan warak (&lt;em&gt;Adenostemma lavenia&lt;/em&gt;), celery &lt;em&gt;(Apium graveolens&lt;/em&gt;),&lt;em&gt; pegagan&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;em&gt;Centella asiatica&lt;/em&gt;),&lt;em&gt; kenikir &lt;/em&gt;(&lt;em&gt;Cosmos caudatus&lt;/em&gt;), and &lt;em&gt;kersen (Muntingia calabura). &lt;/em&gt;This review is expected to provide more information about Indonesian medicinal plants and their potencies to be developed as COPD herbal medicine and, further, as a treatment to help patients suffering from coronavirus disease (COVID-19).&lt;/p&gt;

This tree has enormous medicinal values since most of its parts are used as medicines traditionally. In this work, two major aspects were studied. Firstly, the phytochemical screening and biological activities of various extracts of leaf, flower and fruit are prepared and studied. Secondly, silver nanoparticles were synthesized from these parts, characterized instrumentally and checked for its antibacterial activity. This study reveals that except the aqueous extracts, all other extracts have good antioxidant and antibacterial activity hence stating the presence of bioactive compounds. Flower mediated nanoparticles showed better results than others which may be due to the presence of certain phytochemical compounds responsible for the reduction and capping of silver nanoparticles. These results showed the potential of &lt;em&gt;Couroupita guianensis&lt;/em&gt; and further investigation to isolate such pharmacologically active compounds that can be used in the production of novel drugs for various diseases would be promising.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">315</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prakash Pandurangan&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Madhumitha&amp;nbsp;Sahadeven, Swetha Sunkar, Sai Krishna Nerella Mohana Dhana &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

As an alternative to conventional antibiotics, medicinal plants are valuable resources for new agents against antibiotic-resistant strains. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To evaluate the antibrucellosis activity of different medicinal plants collected from the Western Ghats against &lt;em&gt;Brucella abortus, Brucella melitensis, Brucella suis&lt;/em&gt;. Identification and characterization of the bioactive metabolites of the potent antibrucellosis agent by Thin Layer Chromatography and Gas chromatography mass spectroscopy. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Antibacterial assay was carried for the ethanolic extract of different medicinal plants, the potential and effective medicinal plants extract was subjected for purification by TLC and the bioactive metabolites were characterized by the GC MS analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Acacia nelotica&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Terminalia arjuna&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Eugenia jambolana&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Callistemon citrinus&lt;/em&gt; showed the antibrucellosis activity comparatively &lt;em&gt;Callistemon citrinus &lt;/em&gt;had the strong antibrucellosis activity. Further the crude sample was purified by TLC profiling, compounds with different retention factor were screened for antibrucellosis activity, and the bioactive metabolites were identified by GC-MS analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; For the first time the different medicinal plants from Western Ghats were screened for the antibrucellosis activity. The crude and TLC purified &lt;em&gt;Callistemon citrinus&lt;/em&gt; ethanolic extract exhibited strong antibrucellosis activity. The bioactive compounds identified were reported for the first time and the bioactive metabolites identified exhibited as potential antibacterial agents against brucellosis and other Human pathogens.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6s</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">s122</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sri Raghava, Sharanaiah Umesha* &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It is used to cure cardiac disorder in ayurvedic medicines. A field experiment was laid out in 2004 in CSIR-IHBT farm, by using different quantity of FYM and various spacing. Low growth in plant height was observed in first five years with higher dose of FYM, but in 2015 the significant height growth was recorded. From 2008 to 2015 all types of FYM applications produced statistically significant yield of seed production except in 2012 and 2014. The 22.50t/ha was the most statistically significant dose of FYM in relation to seed yield. The spacing did not produce any significant results for seed production. A vegetative propagation trial of &lt;em&gt;C. oxyacantha &lt;/em&gt;was also laid out using semi hard stem cuttings and some selected hormones (IAA, IBA, GA3 and Abscisic acid) with different concentrations. Statistically significant shoot sprouting (78.35%) was recorded when IBA of 1000 mg/L was used followed by 67.74% in case of 1500 mg/L of the same hormone. While lowest shoot sprouting (27.85%) was observed using 2000 mg/L of Abscisic acid. A statistically significant 5.67 cm and 5.33 cm shoot lengths were observed using 2000 mg/L of IAA and 1000 mg/L of IBA, respectively. In the case of shoot tillers 3.33 was recorded in 1500 mg/l. of IAA. Two new compounds and 9 known compounds were isolated from fruit extract.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6s</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">s69</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gopichand&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;*, RL Meena&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, P Kaur&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, RD Singh&lt;sup&gt;1 &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
