Article Abstract
Our aim was to develop and characterize a nanogel formulation containing both glibenclamide and quercetin and to explore the permeation profile of this combination. Drug-loaded nanogel was prepared by ionic gelation. In addition, optimum encapsulation efficiencies of glibenclamide and quercetin were also obtained. The average nanoparticle size at optimum conditions was determined by Zetasizer. The particle size of the nanogel was found to be 370.4 ± 4.78 nm with a polydispersity index of 0.528 ± 0.04, while the λ potential was positive in a range of 17.6 to 24.8 mV. The percentage cumulative drug release also showed favorable findings. The chitosan nanogel could be a potential alternative for delivering glibenclamide and quercetin through skin.

Background And Purpose: The solubility of weakly-ionizable drugs in pure water, S, is commonly measured. The pH-dependent properties of the saturated solutions can be surprisingly complex in subtle ways. This commentary examines the characteristics of such measurements through case studies of 32 free acids, bases, and ampholytes (including crocetin, glibenclamide, mellitic acid, quercetin, bedaquiline, brigatinib, imatinib, celecoxib, and lysine), using published water solubility data.

Background: Leaf ethanolic extract of (LE3H) has the potential to restore glucose, triglyceride, and uric acid disorders and reduce mercury toxicity. High levels of glucose (hyperglycemia), urine (uremia), and creatinine (hypercreatininemia) in the blood cause real health problems. Meanwhile, the phytochemical content in fruit ethanolic extract of (FE3H) is higher than that of LE3H.

is known for its capacity to regulate blood glucose levels in individuals with diabetes, while leaves have a traditional history as an alternative therapy due to their antidiabetic compounds. The combination of these two plants is expected to yield more optimized antidiabetic agents. This study aims to assess the antidiabetic activity of the combined ethanolic extract of and leaves by measuring the inhibition of the -glucosidase enzyme and the blood glucose level in streptozotocin-induced rats and to determine the phytochemical contents of total phenolics, total flavonoids, and quercetine as marker compounds.

(Wall.) Benth, a native medicinal plant, has been used to treat diabetes for centuries; however, comprehensive documentation of its bioactive constituents and therapeutic effectiveness is lacking. In this study, we investigated the phytochemical profile and antidiabetic potential of methanolic leaf extract (DEME) in diabetic Sprague Dawley rats induced with streptozotocin (STZ).
