Article Abstract

Background: The therapeutic potential of found in northern region of Balochistan, so far has been neglected.

Purpose: The current study was aimed to assess the phytochemicals and pharmacological potential of fractions isolated from .

Research Design: During phytochemicals analysis of using GC/MS showed various bioactive compounds like alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, tannins, saponins, and carboxylic acids. In vitro antioxidant activity of was determined by 2, 2'- diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) Disc diffusion method was used to evaluate the antimicrobial activity.

Results: The quantitative analysis of ethyl acetate showed highest total flavonoid contents (1.19 ± .05) while ethanol with lowest value (.52 ± .01). The total phenolic contents in ethyle acetate was 1.50 ± .42, whereas ethanol showed lowest value (.77 ± .02). Ethanol exhibited excellent (88.68 ± 3.0) free radical scavenging potential measured by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radical scavenging assay. For antimicrobial activity, different bacterial and fungal strains like , and were selected The essential oil showed maximum % inhibition diameter (9 mm) against and (5 mm) against respectively The ethyl acetate presented % inhibition diameter (9 mm) against and (6 mm) against Anti-urease activity also showed positive response.

Conclusions: The presence of high (%) bioactive compounds with great therapeutic potential suggest that can be used as natural alternative of synthetic drugs without side effects.

Metagenomic complexity of high, seasonal transmission of Plasmodium spp. in asymptomatic carriers in Northern Sahelian Ghana.

Commun Med (Lond)

September 2025

Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Bio21 Institute and The Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity, The University of Melbourne, Melbourne, VIC, Australia.

Background: Mixed-species, mixed-strain plasmodia infections are known to occur in humans in malaria endemic areas. It may be surprising that to date, the extent of this complexity has not been systematically explored in high-burden countries of sub-Saharan Africa, especially in the reservoir of asymptomatic infections in all ages, which sustains transmission.

Methods: Here we take a metagenomic lens to these infections by sampling variable blood volumes from 188 afebrile residents living in high, seasonal transmission in Northern Sahelian Ghana.

West Nile fever is a zoonotic arboviral disease caused by the West Nile Virus (WNV), responsible for deaths in humans, mammals, and birds with associated neurological manifestations. All previous investigations of WNV Brazil were based primarily on serological and molecular analyses and in humans, equids, and birds in the northern and southeastern regions of the country. This study describes the pathological and molecular findings observed in a mule, from the state of Paraná, southern Brazil, that died during an outbreak involving equids with clinical manifestations of a neurological disease.

The | Ililiwaskiy (Moose Cree First Nation Territory) in the James Bay region of Ontario, Canada, and like many Indigenous communities across the globe has experienced decades of industrial activity impacting its ecosystems. Community concerns regarding mercury levels in culturally significant fish species led to an interdisciplinary research initiative. This study combined scientific analysis and community knowledge to assess mercury concentrations in three traditionally consumed fish species-walleye (Sander vitreus), northern pike (Esox lucius), and lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens).

Clinicopathological features of dermal clear cell sarcoma: A series of 13 cases.

Department of Pathology, Xijing Hospital and School of Basic Medicine, Fourth Military Medical University, Xi'an, China. Electronic address:

Background: Dermal clear cell sarcoma (DCCS) is a rare malignant mesenchymal neoplasm. Owing to the overlaps in its morphological and immunophenotypic profiles with a broad spectrum of tumors exhibiting melanocytic differentiation, it is frequently misdiagnosed as other tumor entities in clinical practice. By systematically analyzing the clinicopathological characteristics, immunophenotypic features, and molecular biological properties of DCCS, this study intends to further enhance pathologists' understanding of this disease and provide a valuable reference for its accurate diagnosis.
