The The role of Sarvang sundar rasa Orally and Mahamash tail locally in the management of Amavata WSR to Rheumatoid Arthritis –A case study.

Amavata is term derives from the word as Ama and vata.Ama is a type of metabolic toxin; it is an essential factor in development of pathology.Mandagni (low digestive fire) produce Ama in the body,when ama get associated with vitiated vata and starts circulating in the body accupies in shleshmal sthana(asthi sandhi) results in painful disease Amavata. Madhavakara (900 AD) has identified first time the disease.Amavata as seprate entity and discribed the disease in detail.Madhavakara describes etiopathology of amavata that the person with weak digestion (Mandagni) if he is posseses a secondary life (nishchalasya)or if he indulges into virrudha aaharaand vihara e.g.excessive exercise after taking heavy and fatty food,ama is produced and vata get vitiated. This ama provoks by vata (Vayuna preritah),Circulates in the body especially towards shleshmal sthanas. the resultant of cardinal symptoms of amvata are painful swelling of the joints (sarujashotham ) of hands,feet,ankle,knee,hip,Spinal column,and stiffness(jadyata),fever( Jwara),loss of appetite (aruchi),indigestion (apaka),Constipation(vibandhata),gurguling(antrakujanam)etc. this impairs the day to day functions of person.in spite of presence of NSAID,DMRD,steroids etc. the rheumatology remains refractory to treatment but Ayurvedic drug which are therapeutically safe and effectiveness.

Obtention of Antimicrobial Fibers Type Core/Shell Pla/Pvoh-Lae By Coaxial Electrospinning

Coaxial electrospinning (EC) is a technology that allows the encapsulation of active compounds, such as ethyl lauroyl arginate (LAE), in shell/core structures, in order to develop new antimicrobial materials for food packaging that slow down the release of active compounds and extend the food’s shelf life. For this reason, the objective of this study was to develop antimicrobial fibers shell/core type by EC. Two polymers with different hydrophilic character, polylactic acid (PLA) for the shell and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) and LAE for the core, were used to obtain PLA/PVOH-LAE fibers and slow the release of the antimicrobial compound. The morphology of fibers was evaluated by optical microscopy and their thermal properties through thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). LAE release studies were carried out in a fatty food simulant (ETOH 95%), and was compared with the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of LAE against a gram-positive bacteria, Listeria innnocua. The optical micrographs showed the obtaining of the shell/core structure with an average diameter of approximately 0.6 µm, and the TGA analyses demonstrated the thermal protection of LAE by the shell of the fibers. Released LAE reached the equilibrium state in ETOH 95% during the first 3 hours, maintaining a higher concentration than the MIC value obtained in L. innnocua (10 ppm). The results demonstrate that new packaging materials with antimicrobial activity such as PLA/PVOH-LAE polymeric fibers with a shell/core structure can be obtained through the coaxial electrospinning technique. Keywords: coaxial electrospinning, ethyl lauroyl arginate, fibers, shell/core, food packaging. Resumen El electrohilado coaxial (EC) es una tecnología que permite encapsular compuestos activos como el etil lauroil arginato (LAE) en estructuras tipo pared/núcleo con la finalidad de desarrollar nuevos materiales antimicrobianos para el envasado de alimentos que ralenticen la liberación del compuesto y extiendan la vida útil del alimento. Por tal razón, el objetivo de este estudio consistió en desarrollar fibras antimicrobianas tipo pared/núcleo mediante EC. Dos polímeros con distinto carácter hidrofílico como el poli (ácido láctico) (PLA) para la pared y poli (alcohol vinílico) (PVOH) y LAE para el núcleo se utilizaron para obtener las fibras PLA/PVOH-LAE, y ralentizar la liberación del compuesto antimicrobiano. La morfología de las fibras se evaluó mediante microscopía óptica y sus propiedades térmicas mediante análisis termogravimétricos (TGA). Se realizaron estudios de liberación del LAE en un simulante de alimentos graso (ETOH 95%), y se comparó con la concentración mínima inhibitoria (MIC) hacia una bacteria Gram positiva Listeria innnocua. Las micrografías ópticas evidenciaron la obtención de la estructura pared/núcleo con un diámetro promedio de 0,6 µm aproximadamente, y el análisis TGA demostró la protección térmica del LAE por la pared de las fibras. El LAE liberado alcanzó el estado de equilibrio en ETOH 95% durante las 3 hr iniciales, manteniendo una concentración superior a la MIC obtenida para L. innnocua (10 ppm). Los resultados demuestran que nuevos materiales de envase con actividad antimicrobiana como fibras poliméricas PLA/PVOH-LAE con estructura pared/núcleo pueden ser obtenidos mediante la técnica de electrohilado coaxial. Palabras clave: electrohilado coaxial, etil lauroil arginato, fibras, pared/núcleo, envase de alimentos.

Maternal high-fat diet during pregnancy with concurrent phthalate exposure leads to abnormal placentation

Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a synthetic chemical commonly used for its plasticizing capabilities. Because of the extensive production and use of DEHP, humans are exposed to this chemical daily. Diet is a significant exposure pathway and fatty food contain the highest level of phthalates. The impact on pregnancy following DEHP exposure and the associated interaction of high fat (HF) diet remains unknown. Here we report that exposure of pregnant mice to an environmentally relevant level of DEHP did not affect pregnancy. In contrast, mice fed a HF diet during gestation and exposed to the same level of DEHP display marked impairment in placental development, resulting in poor pregnancy outcomes. Our study further reveals that DEHP exposure combined with a HF diet interfere with the signaling pathway controlled by nuclear receptor PPARγ to adversely affect differentiation of trophoblast cells, leading to compromised vascularization and glucose transport in the placenta. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that maternal diet during pregnancy is a critical factor that determines whether exposure to an environmental toxicant results in impaired placental and fetal development, causing intrauterine growth restriction, fetal morbidity, and mortality.

How Antioxidant Have an Effect on Scavenger Receptors Action

Today’s lifestyle has changed in comparison with the past. Using junk foods and unhealthy foods leads to increasing the risk of heart attacks. Atherosclerosis is an inflammation disease made by many factors that lead to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Macrophages, endothelial cells, OX-LDL, and some oxidants such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the reasons for this transformation, and they have an important role in causing cardiovascular disease. Hyperlipidemia is a major reason for atherosclerosis. Increase in the use of fatty food and fast food can lead to a rise in the risk of atherosclerosis. Macrophages are special cells derived from monocytes and can make plaque which led to increased risk of atherosclerosis. Curcumin is one of important ant inflammation can reduce the risk of CVD. Some studies illustrate that a class SRs, SR-AI and SR-AII, and 2 members of the B class, CD36 and SR-BI, involved in atherosclerosis process. Some studies strongly suggest that oral antioxidants are effective in atherosclerosis treatment, most of them have been unsuccessful except probucol. The aim of this study is illustrating that how curcumin as antioxidant can effect on atherosclerosis proses and scavenger receptor’s activation.

The cerebral mechanism underlying the acupoints with specific effect for gallbladder stone disease: protocol for a randomized controlled task-fMRI trial

Background As it has been recorded in ancient Chinese classics, Yanglingquan (GB34) and Dannangxue (EX-LE6) are two important acupoints that can regulate the function of the gallbladder. Acupuncture at these two acupoints is considered particularly effective for gallbladder disease treatment, especially for alleviating gallbladder stone disease (GSD) symptoms that can be aggravated after intaking high-fat food. However, the superior effect between the two acupoints still needs to be further explored, as well as the underlying central mechanism has never been investigated to date. Methods and design Ninety participants diagnosed with GSD will be randomly divided into group A (acupuncture at GB34), group B (acupuncture at EX-LE6), and group C (acupuncture at non-acupoint) in a ratio of 1:1:1. All of them will receive a 30-min acupuncture treatment with fatty-food cues being presented before and after acupuncture. During the task, participants will be scanned by MRI and required to rate their desire for high-/low-fat food with an 11-point Likert scale. Additionally, the participants’ pain/discomfort sensation will be evaluated using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at four timepoints, including before the 1st task fMRI scan, before and after acupuncture, and after the 2nd task fMRI scan. For both behavior and fMRI data, the ANOVA analysis will be conducted among three groups to testify the immediate effect of GB34 and EX-LE6. The post hoc t-test will be employed to further explore the superiority between acupuncture with GB34 and EX-LE6. Furthermore, correlation analyses will be conducted to investigate a possible correlation between neural changes and clinical data. Discussion In comparison to the non-acupoint, the results will firstly explore the superior effect between acupuncture with GB34 and EX-LE6 on GSD patients by observing their behavioral and neural response change to fatty-food cue, and then to investigate the underlying central mechanism.

Development of a Sodium Alginate-Based Active Package with Controlled Release of Cinnamaldehyde Loaded on Halloysite Nanotubes

The worsening environment and the demand for safer food have accelerated the development of new food packaging materials. The objective of this research is to prepare antimicrobial food packaging film with controlled release by loading cinnamaldehyde (CIN) on etched halloysite nanotubes (T-HNTs) and adding it to sodium alginate (SA) matrix. The effects of T-HNTs-CIN on the physical functional properties and antibacterial activity of the film were systematically evaluated, and the release of CIN in the film was also quantified. Transmission electron microscopy and nitrogen adsorption experiments showed that the halloysite nanotubes had been etched and CIN was successfully loaded into the T-HNTs. The addition of T-HNTs-CIN significantly improved the water vapor barrier properties and tensile strength of the film. Similarly, the presence of T-HNTs-CIN in the film greatly reduced the negative effects of ultraviolet rays. The release experiment showed that the diffusion time of CIN in SA/T-HNTs-CIN film to fatty food simulation solution was delayed 144 h compared with that of SA/CIN film. Herein, the antibacterial experiment also confirmed the controlled release effect of T-HNTs on CIN. In conclusion, SA/T-HNTs-CIN film might have broad application prospects in fatty food packaging.

Effect of Organic Modifier Types on the Physical–Mechanical Properties and Overall Migration of Post-Consumer Polypropylene/Clay Nanocomposites for Food Packaging

The deterioration of the physical–mechanical properties and loss of the chemical safety of plastics after consumption are topics of concern for food packaging applications. Incorporating nanoclays is an alternative to improve the performance of recycled plastics. However, properties and overall migration from polymer/clay nanocomposites to food require to be evaluated case-by-case. This work aimed to investigate the effect of organic modifier types of clays on the structural, thermal and mechanical properties and the overall migration of nanocomposites based on 50/50 virgin and recycled post-consumer polypropylene blend (VPP/RPP) and organoclays for food packaging applications. The clay with the most hydrophobic organic modifier caused higher thermal stability of the nanocomposites and greater intercalation of polypropylene between clay mineral layers but increased the overall migration to a fatty food simulant. This migration value was higher from the 50/50 VPP/RPP film than from VPP. Nonetheless, clays reduced the migration and even more when the clay had greater hydrophilicity because of lower interactions between the nanocomposite and the fatty simulant. Conversely, nanocomposites and VPP/RPP control films exhibited low migration values in the acid and non-acid food simulants. Regarding tensile parameters, elongation at break values of PP film significantly increased with RPP addition, but the incorporation of organoclays reduced its ductility to values closer to the VPP.

Bio-Morphological Peculiarities Of Salsola Orientalis S. Gmel In The Conditions Of South Aral Sea Region

The article is devoted to the study of the growth and development of Salsola orientalis S. Gmel in a culture. In the literature, the growth and development of Salsola orientalis S. Gmel is readily eaten by animals in all seasons and is a good fatty food for sheep. The eaten part of the plants is annual shoots with leaves; flowers and fruits, often more lignified lower parts of the bushes. Therefore, it is difficult to find plants in grazed areas that are not damaged by animals, which makes Salsola orientalis quite suitable for making hay. Despite the practical value of this species and great attention from researchers, the growth and development of Salsola orientalis, taking into account the influence of the ecological conditions of the Karakalpak part of the Kyzyl-Kum Desert, have been little studied.
