Evaluation of Toxicity and Antiangiogenic Activity of Murraya koenigii Leaf Extracts in Zebrafish

Evaluation of antibacterial and cytotoxic activity of Artemisia nilagirica and Murraya koenigii leaf extracts against mycobacteria and macrophages

BACKGROUND Artemisia nilagirica (Asteraceae) and Murraya koenigii (Rutaceae) are widely distributed in eastern region of India. Leaves of Artemisia nilagirica plant are used to treat cold and cough by the local tribal population in east India. Murraya koenigii is an edible plant previously reported to have an antibacterial activity. Pathogenic strains of mycobacteria are resistant to most of th...

Evaluation of In vitro anti inflammatory activity of Murraya koenigii

The leaf extract of Murraya koenigii were assessed for In vitro Anti Inflammatory activity by HRBC membrane stabilization method and Denaturation of protein inhibition method. The presence of flavanoids and carbazole alkaloids has been reported earlier in M.koenigii. Since the flavanoids and carbazole alkaloids have remarkable anti-inflammatory activity, so the present work aims at evaluating t...

Evaluation of Bioactive Compounds, Pharmaceutical Quality, and Anticancer Activity of Curry Leaf (Murraya koenigii L.)

In this study, we investigated some bioactive compounds and pharmaceutical qualities of curry leaf (Murraya koenigii L.) extracts from three different locations in Malaysia. The highest TF and total phenolic (TP) contents were observed in the extracts from Kelantan (3.771 and 14.371 mg/g DW), followed by Selangor (3.146 and 12.272 mg/g DW) and Johor (2.801 and 12.02 mg/g DW), respectively. High...

Phytochemical and Antimicrobial Standardization of the Methanolic Leaf Extracts of Murraya Koenigii Linn

Murraya koenigii leaf extract inhibits proteasome activity and induces cell death in breast cancer cells

BACKGROUND Inhibition of the proteolytic activity of 26S proteasome, the protein-degrading machine, is now considered a novel and promising approach for cancer therapy. Interestingly, proteasome inhibitors have been demonstrated to selectively kill cancer cells and also enhance the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic agents. Recently, polyphenols/flavonoids have been reported to inhi...
