Antimicrobial Potential of Betulinic Acid and Investigation of the Mechanism of Action against Nuclear and Metabolic Enzymes with Molecular Modeling

Gabriela Cristina Soares Rodrigues et al.

Summary: Natural products, such as betulinic acid (BA), have important pharmacological activities. This study investigated the antimicrobial activity of BA against various bacteria and fungi. In vitro tests showed that BA inhibited the growth of microbial species, with 75% of the species inhibited at a concentration of 561 μM. Molecular modeling studies revealed the mechanism of action of BA against the selected microorganisms.

Evaluation of potential inhibitory effects on acetylcholinesterase, pancreatic lipase, and cancer cell lines using raw leaves extracts of three fabaceae species

Iram Fatima et al.

Summary: This study examined the biological potential and phytochemicals of Sophora mollis, Mucuna pruriens, and Indigofera atropurpurea leaf extracts. In vitro assays showed the antiacetylcholinesterase and anti-lipase activities of the plant extracts, with S. mollis displaying the highest inhibition percentage for anti-acetylcholinesterase activity and M. pruriens for anti-lipase activity. Cytotoxic potential against different cell lines was observed, with I. atropurpurea showing promising results against the PC3 cell line. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis revealed the presence of various therapeutic compounds in the plant species.

Wound Healing Potential of Couroupita guianensis Aubl. Fruit Pulp Investigated on Excision Wound Model

L. Anna Sheba et al.

Summary: This study investigated the wound healing potential of Couroupita guianensis fruit pulp in rats. The results showed that the ointment prepared from the extract of C. guianensis fruit pulp promoted wound contraction, reduced the wound area, shortened the epithelialization period, and increased hydroxyproline content. The study also found that the extract influenced the expression of VEGF and TGF-beta genes, which are associated with wound healing. These findings provide scientific evidence for the traditional use of this plant in wound healing and suggest its potential as a therapeutic strategy.

Development of New Antimicrobial Oleanonic Acid Polyamine Conjugates

Elmira F. Khusnutdinova et al.

Summary: A series of oleanolic acid derivatives with different long chain polyamines were synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial activities. These derivatives showed good to moderate activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including the disruption of the outer bacterial membrane. Computational ADMET profiling suggested that one of the derivatives is a suitable starting point for pharmacokinetic optimization.

Formulation and Antibacterial Potential of Sarang Semut (Myrmecodia pendans) against Oral Pathogenic Bacteria: An In Vitro Study

Ameta Primasari et al.

Summary: The antibacterial activity of Sarang Semut extracts against oral pathogenic bacteria was investigated. The n-hexane extract showed inhibition against Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus mutans, and all combination extracts inhibited the growth of Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus sanguinis. The combination of water extract and fosfomycin exhibited the strongest synergistic effect against Streptococcus mutans.

The Current Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Activities of Synthetic/Herbal/Biomaterials in Dental Application

Ali Moghaddam et al.

Summary: This review evaluates the potential of herbal and chemical products for oral care and biofilm treatment and summarizes the current evidence on their antibiofilm properties. Chlorhexidine gluconate and essential oils have been shown to effectively control plaque formation and gingival indices. Fluoride shows promise for improving oral health, but further research is needed. Future studies should focus on the synergy between natural plants and chemicals and conduct targeted clinical trials to discover biofilm-interfering or biofilm-inhibiting activities.
