TL;DR: A total of 80 new 2-methyl-6-ureido-4-quinolinamides were synthesized and evaluated for their antimalarial activity and one of the compounds displayed significant antibacterial effect against several strains of bacteria and was many-fold better than the standard drug gentamicin.

TL;DR: Pippali Rasayana (PR), an Indian ayurvedic drug prepared from Palash and Piperaceae, was administered to patients suffering from giardiasis with clinical signs and symptoms, and stools positive for trophozoites/cysts of Giardia lamblia and there was a marked improvement in the clinical and haematological profile of the patients.

TL;DR: It was observed that BM at the dose of 80 mg/kg and PQ at 100mg/kg (po) were effective as an anti-anxiety as well anti-depressant activity and had no motor in-coordination in mice.
Abstract: The present study was undertaken to compare medicinal plants against mixed anxiety-depressive disorder (MAD) to evaluate their potency in combating MAD disorders. Previous studies from our lab have shown that Bacopa monniera (BM), and Panax quniquefolium (PQ) have significant adaptogenic properties. Hence, we have further confirmed their activity in stress related disorders like anxiety and depression in animal model, rodents and assessed their efficacy. In our experimental protocol, gross behaviour was observed through Digiscan animal activity monitor. Anxiety was studied through light dark test, elevated plus maze test and holeboard test. Depression experiments were conducted following tail suspension test and forced swim test. Further, rotarod test was also used to study any defects in motor in-coordination in mice. It was observed that BM at the dose of 80 mg/kg (po) and PQ at 100 mg/kg (po) were effective as an anti-anxiety as well anti-depressant activity and had no motor in-coordination in mice. Hence, these extracts can be used as a potent therapeutic agent in treating mixed anxiety-depressive disorder (MAD).

TL;DR: High accumulation of AmB in liver and spleen has been found, which resulted in enhanced anti-leishmanial activity and in vivo organ distribution studies in Wistar rats demonstrated a significantly higher extent of accumulation of PS-AmB-GNPs compared with AmB- GNPs in macrophage-rich organs.
Abstract: Objective: The principle objective of this study was to develop 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-l-serine (PS)-coated gelatin nanoparticles (GNPs) bearing amphotericin B (AmB) for specific targeting to the macrophages involved in visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Method: The two-step desolvation method has been used for the preparation of GNPs with AmB, which was further coated with PS (PS-AmB-GNPs). The targeting potential of it was compared with uncoated AmB-loaded GNPs (AmB-GNPs) for in vitro and in vivo macrophage uptake. Results: The results of flow cytometric data revealed enhanced uptake of PS-AmB-GNPs in J774A.1 macrophage cell lines compared with AmB-GNPs. In vivo organ distribution studies in Wistar rats demonstrated a significantly higher extent of accumulation of PS-AmB-GNPs compared with AmB-GNPs in macrophage-rich organs, particularly in liver and spleen. The in vivo anti-leishmanial activity of plain AmB, AmB-GNPs and PS-AmB-GNPs was tested against VL in Leishmania donovani-infected hamsters. Hig...
