Coadministration of Ginger Extract and Fluconazole Shows a Synergistic Effect in the Treatment of Drug-Resistant Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

Arif Khan et al.

Summary: The study found that fluconazole alone was ineffective against Candida albicans, while a combination of fluconazole and methanolic extract of ginger demonstrated greater antifungal activity. This combination was effective in treating drug-resistant vulvovaginal candidiasis, reducing fungal load and inflammation in the vaginal tissues.

Safety and Therapeutic Efficacy of Thymoquinone-Loaded Liposomes against Drug-Sensitive and Drug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii

Khaled S. Allemailem et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that liposomal thymoquinone may be an effective treatment for drug-sensitive or drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections. In the experiment, Lip-TQ treatment significantly increased the survival rate of mice and reduced the bacterial load in the lung tissues of infected mice.

Antimicrobial and anti-biofilm activity of thymoquinone against Shigella flexneri

Qiuxia Fan et al.

Summary: The study showed that thymoquinone has antimicrobial and anti-biofilm activities against Shigella flexneri by disrupting cell morphology, inhibiting protein synthesis, and downregulating genes involved in biofilm formation. Thymoquinone has the potential to be used as a natural agent to combat contamination and infection caused by Shigella flexneri.

Liposomal Ellagic Acid Alleviates Cyclophosphamide-Induced Toxicity and Eliminates the Systemic Cryptococcus neoformans Infection in Leukopenic Mice

Masood Alam Khan et al.

Summary: The study showed that the liposomal formulation of ellagic acid effectively eliminated Cryptococcus neoformans infection in leukopenic mice, improving survival rate and reducing fungal burden in lung tissues. Lip-EA treatment also alleviated cyclophosphamide-induced toxicity and restored hepatic, renal function, and antioxidant levels, indicating its potential as a promising therapeutic formulation against C. neoformans in immunocompromised individuals.
