Presenting author email: [email protected] Natural products, such as plants extract, either as pure compounds or as standardized extracts, provide unlimited opportunities for new drug discoveries because of the unmatched availability of chemical diversity. Probably based on historical background we utilize only certain plant parts. In many cases there is not enough of required material or collection damages plant itself. The possible solution we could find in utilization of unused or waste plant parts. This work is focused on analysis of bioactive compounds content in different parts of medicinal plants such as genus Magnolia. Stem bark of these trees are part of Chinese traditional medicine. The collection of stem bark is devastating for the tree. Flowers and leaves from Magnolia tripetala, Magnolia obovata and their hybrids were separately extracted with 80% methanol. Resulting methanolic extract were subsequently fractionated with chloroform under acidic conditions and mixture of chloroform and methanol under basic conditions in term of increasing polarity (Harborne, 1998) into four fractions, neutral, moderately polar, basic and polar extract. Each extract was screened

Eugenol, the main component of clove’s essential oil, is an inexpensive and easily available phenylpropene that has been known by humankind since antiquity, and used as a medicinal agent, but also for food flavoring and preservation. The review includes the most relevant results obtained during the last 15 years with regard to the synthetic uses of eugenol. Discussed here are the multiple applications of eugenol in organic synthesis, including its use as starting material or building block for the total synthesis of natural products, their analogs and derivatives, as well as other structurally interesting or bioactive compounds. The preparation technologically relevant macrocycles and polymeric derivatives of eugenol, is included, and the impact of biotechnology on the use of eugenol as feedstock for biotransformations, leading to other valuable small molecules is also addressed.

  • Antiplatelet Activity of Obovatol, a Biphenolic Component of Magnolia Obovata, in Rat Arterial Thrombosis and Rabbit Platelet Aggregation

Obovatol, a major biphenolic component of Magnolia obo- vata leaves, displays anti-inflammatory and acyl Co-A cholesterol acyltrasferase inhibitory effects. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of obovatol on thrombus formation in vivo and platelet activation in vitro and ex vivo. Methods: We investigated the antiplatelet and antithrombotic activities of obovatol in rat carotid ar- terial thrombosis in vivo along with platelet aggregation in vitro and ex vivo. Its possible cellular mechanism of antiplatelet activity was investigated by testing PLC-γ2 activation, arachidonic acid cascade, calcium mobilization and granule secretion. Results: Oral administration of obovatol prevented carotid thrombosis, but also significantly inhibit- ed collagen-induced platelet aggregation. Obovatol did not change coagulation times, such as activat- ed partial thromboplastin time and prothrombin time, indicating that the antithrombotic effect of obovatol might be due to antiplatelet activity rather than anticoagulation activity.

Nanotechnology will affect our lives tremendously over the next decade in very different fields, including medicine and pharmaceutical Sciences. Most of the available drugs now are lipophilic in nature and this stands as challenging aspect faced for scientists to formulate and deliver for better efficacy, so nanoparticles, nanosuspension, nanocapsules are used now days to deliver these drugs with greater bioavailability and also have been adopted to improve the solubility of poorly soluble drugs. The use of nanoparticles is an universal formulation approach to increase the therapeutic performance of drugs in any route of administration.

Abstract Autologous cell transplantation is a promising approach to enhance burn wound re- epithelialisation. It was introduced to clinical practice decades ago with current delivery techniques involving spraying autologous cultured or uncultured cells in low-viscosity sus- pensions. This delivery method is limited since it results in an uneven distribution on the wound bed and cell loss as the liquid is not retained on the skin surface. In this thesis, a sprayable gel that solidifies on the surface of the skin has been developed to circumvent this problem. A gellan-based fluid gel system was developed with flexible viscoelastic properties that can be tuned by a biocompatible polymer concentration and ionic strength to facilitate spray delivery. The material liquefies at high shear during spraying with self-healing properties of the gel causing it to solidify on the receiving sur- face.

After ingestion, the powder combines with gastric juices developing intestinal gases which are somewhat helpful in evacuating the bowels. This medication's name comes from the Seidlitz Saline Springs of Bohemia (now Sedlčany in the Czech Republic), which were rather famous in Europe at the time this medication was first marketed in the late 19th century, even though the foregoing laxative constituents do not represent those of the springs named. Use of Each ingredient – act as acid and base which react in the presence of water to cause effervescence Use of Preparation - mild cathartic/laxative Appearance – white powder Storage – store in air tight containers Granules are prepared agglomerates of powdered materials, may be used per se for the medicinal value of their content or they may be used for pharmaceutical purposes, as in making tablets.

  • Glioblastoma Treatments: an Account of Recent Industrial Developments
    REVIEW published: 13 September 2018 doi: 10.3389/fphar.2018.00879 Glioblastoma Treatments: An Account of Recent Industrial Developments Edouard Alphandéry 1,2* 1 Institut de Minéralogie, de Physique des Matériaux et de Cosmochimie, UMR 7590 CNRS, Sorbonne Universités, UPMC, University Paris 06, Paris, France, 2 Nanobacterie SARL, Paris, France The different drugs and medical devices, which are commercialized or under industrial development for glioblastoma treatment, are reviewed. Their different modes of action are analyzed with a distinction being made between the effects of radiation, the targeting of specific parts of glioma cells, and immunotherapy. Most of them are still at a too early stage of development to firmly conclude about their efficacy. Optune, which triggers antitumor activity by blocking the mitosis of glioma cells under the application of an alternating electric field, seems to be the only recently developed therapy with some efficacy reported on a large number of GBM patients. The need for early GBM diagnosis is emphasized since it could enable the treatment of GBM tumors of small sizes, possibly easier to eradicate than larger tumors. Ways to improve clinical protocols by strengthening preclinical studies using of a broader range of different animal and tumor models are also underlined. Issues related with efficient drug delivery and crossing of Edited by: blood brain barrier are discussed. Finally societal and economic aspects are described François E. Paris, University of Nantes, France with a presentation of the orphan drug status that can accelerate the development of Reviewed by: GBM therapies, patents protecting various GBM treatments, the different actors tackling Tullio Florio, GBM disease, the cost of GBM treatments, GBM market figures, and a financial analysis Università di Genova, Italy of the different companies involved in the development of GBM therapies.
