Sangale*1, Dhananjay B. Deshmukh2, Rajesh Bhambere3 1Department of Quality Assurance Techniques, 2Department of Pharmacology, VJSM’S Vishal Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research, Junnar, Pune, Maharashtra *[email protected] ABSTRACT Epilepsy is a chronic disorder characterized by the occurrence of epileptic seizures, with or without characteristic body movements (convulsion)affecting about 50 million people worldwide. Synthetic drugs for the treatment of epilepsy are associated with severe side effects and addiction liabilities upon long term uses. Thus, researchers around the globe are searching for natural resources. Erythrina variegata and Butea monosperma is a traditional medicinal plant used to treat a seizure. The present studies reveal that the anticonvulsant activity by Erythrina variegate & Butea monosperma of bark & leaf PTZ and MES induced convulsions in wistar rats using Erythrina variegata & Butea monosperma of bark & leaf ethanolic extracts extracted successively. However, the anticonvulsant activity of this plant has not been studied in depth. In Pentylene tetrazole (PTZ) an maximal electro shock seizure(MES) models test parameters like latncy, onset of tonic convulsions, clonic convulsions and percent protection were observed in the different test groups. Inconclusion, we showed that the ethanolic extract of Erythrina variegata and Butea monosperma has anticonvulsant effect in the both models, suggesting their possible depressant action in the central nervous system. EEBM and EEEV gave significant protection (P<0.001) against PTZ & MES induce convulsion.

The present study unravelled the bacterial community composition and their functional attributions from the termite degraded Butea. Methods: Total genomic DNA from termite degraded Butea monosperma samples was extracted and subjected to sequencing on Illumina's Miseq. The raw and unassembled reads obtained from high-throughput sequencing were used for taxonomic and functional profiling using different online and stand-alone softwares. Moreover, to ascertain the effect of different geographical locations and environmental factors, comparative analysis was performed using four other publically available metagenomes. Results: The higher abundance of Actinobacteria (21.27%), Proteobacteria (14.18%), Firmicutes (10.46%), and Bacteroidetes (4.11%) was found at the phylum level. The genus level was dominated by Bacillus (4.33%), Gemmatimonas (3.13%), Mycobacterium (1.82%), Acidimicrobium (1.69%), Thermoleophilum (1.23%), Nocardioides (1.44%), Terrimonas and Acidithermus (1.09%) and Clostridium (1.05%). Functional annotation of the termite degraded B. monosperma metagenome revealed a high abundance of ammonia oxidizers, sulfate reducers, dehalogenators, nitrate reducers, sulfide oxidizers, xylan degraders, nitrogen fixers and chitin degraders.

Sampling was accomplished in and around the city of Faisalabad, especially at the Khadija Mahmood Trust Hospital and at the University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan. Volunteers were categorized into normal and diabetic subjects on the basis of their blood glucose levels. Male and female diabetic volunteers aged between 30 and 60 years participated in the study. All the diabetic volunteers suffered from diabetes type II, i.e. non- insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). The subjects were divided into 5 groups as follows: Group A - Untreated normal subjects; Group B - Normal subjects who received powdered B. monosperma (3 g) in 30 mL of water for 30 days, orally; Group C - Control diabetic subjects; Group D - Diabetic subjects who received powdered (3 g) in 30 mL of water for 30 days, orally; and Group E - Diabetic subjects who received a 5-mg tablet b. I. d. of Daonil® (a standard oral antidiabetic drug) in 30 mL of water for 30 days. The oral administration of B. monosperma fruit to diabetic and normal subjects for 30 days decreased (P < 0.05) blood glucose, urine sugar, and plasma glycoprotein levels, as well as the lipid profile and the activity of liver enzymes.

Nutrimental and Ethnomedicinal Potential Plants of the Qur’an: An Overview – III. Int J Food Nutr Diet. 2019;7(3):137– 152. Abstract Our ancient literatures of Hindus’, Muslims as well as of Cristian’s are full of plants described about their nutrimental and medicinal potential. A significant number of plants described in their texts are still unidentified because of least or no interest in plant taxonomy among neither grate scientists in well-developed different organisations nor respected teachers of Universities or Colleges of repute. We can say with confidence that there are no teachers who can teach Plant Taxonomy in significant numbers of academic institutions. A man of Biotechnology can do nothing if he/she can not identify the plant on which the work has to be worked out. As a result, due to non-identification of plants we can not use our wealth of knowledge which has been provided by our ancestors present in form of scripts. We were presented a book written by Dr. M. I. H. Farooqi entitled “Quruani Poudhe-Vagayanic Dhristi Se” while in Seminar organised by UP Biodiversity Board, Lucknow. We found that there are seventy-one plants being reported in Holy Qur’an and Bible. We have consulted the literatures available as well as the tribal of Bahraich about the uses of the plants available.
