Anticancer property of Bryophyllum pinnata (Lam.) Oken. leaf on human cervical cancer cells

BACKGROUND Bryophyllum pinnata (B. pinnata) is a common medicinal plant used in traditional medicine of India and of other countries for curing various infections, bowel diseases, healing wounds and other ailments. However, its anticancer properties are poorly defined. In view of broad spectrum therapeutic potential of B. pinnata we designed a study to examine anti-cancer and anti-Human Papillo...

PROTEIN PROFILING OF Bryophyllum Pinnatum (LAM.) KURZ. LEAF

Objective: Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Kurz. is a medicinal herb commonly used to treat ulcers, cough, diabetes and cancer. In this study, phosphate extraction buffer (pH) was used to extract proteins from the leaves of Bryophyllum pinnatum. Method: On sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) separation, the results showed that most of the extracted proteins migrated...

ANTICANCER PROPERTY OF PURIFIED FRACTION C2 OF CUTTLEFISH (Sepia pharaonis) INK ON CERVICAL CANCER CELLS

Wound healing potential of ethanolic extract of Kalanchoe pinnata Lam. leaf--a preliminary study.

The extract of K. pinnata was evaluated for its wound healing activity by using excision wound model in rats. On day 11, animals treated with the ethanolic leaf extract exhibited 86.33% reduction in the wound area, compared to petroleum jelly treated control (69.36%) and the mupirocin treated standard (85.49%). The hydroxyproline content of extract treated animals was higher, as compared to con...

Emerging aluminium nitride nanoparticles: chemical synthesis and exploration of their biocompatibility and anticancer activity against cervical cancer cells

Objective(s): Aluminium nitride (AlN) could be used in implantable biomedical sensor devices, for which cytotoxicity analysis is of utmost importance. Materials and Methods: AlN nanoparticles were synthesized using a simple and effective solvothermal method. The X-ray diffraction results revealed the cubic phase of AlN, and the field emission scanning electron microscopy analysis demonstr...
