Attenuation of Scopolamine-Induced Amnesia via Cholinergic Modulation in Mice by Synthetic Curcumin Analogs

Haya Hussain et al.

Summary: In this study, six curcumin analogs were synthesized and evaluated for their potential to inhibit cholinesterase. The synthesized compounds showed promising results in improving memory functions in mice models. Further research is needed to determine their exact mechanism of action.

Cytotoxicity, Anti-Obesity and Anti-Diabetic Activities of Heteromorpha arborescens (Spreng.) Cham Leaves

Taiwo Oluwafunmilola Abifarin et al.

Summary: The study investigated the cytotoxicity, anti-obesity, and anti-diabetic potentials of different extracts of Heteromorpha arborescens leaves. Results showed that ethanol and aqueous extracts exhibited considerable inhibition against alpha-glucosidase, while blanched extract had weak alpha-glucosidase inhibition. Aqueous extract showed the best alpha-amylase inhibition. The extracts showed moderate glucose utilization in cells and relatively weaker lipase inhibition.
