About 12,000 chemical compounds isolated from medicinal plants and used to conduct crucial biological functions. These phytochemicals offer long-term health benefits for humans, thus they can be used effectively for treat a variety of human ailments. The goal of this study was to assess the in vitro free radical scavenging and antibacterial activities of glycoside, flavonoid and alkaloid extracts of Tilia cordata plant. According to the findings, flavonoid extract exhibits strong inhibitory action against Staphylococcus aureus but no activity against Escherichia coli. The free radical scavenging activity exhibited that the flavonoid extract was more effective in inhibiting lipid peroxidation more than alkaloid extract, whereas the glycoside extract had no antioxidant activity.
Hepatitis C virus is one of the most dangerous and contagious diseases, as its danger lies in the absence of obvious symptoms at the beginning of the infection. Over time, some signs may appear, such as yellowing of the skin , eyes and abdominal pain, but in advanced cases, it may lead to cirrhosis of the liver and may lead to death. The current study aims to know the extent of liver damage to infection with the virus by measuring some biochemical variables such as direct, indirect and total bilirubin, and on the other hand, measuring interleukin-28b to determine the extent of the immune response, The results showed a significant increase in direct and total bilirubin, as well as a significant increase in the concentration of Interleukin-28 b.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
