Neurodegenerative movement disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) (Parkinson’s disease (PD)) is characterized by necrosis of dopaminergic neurons within the substan tianigra pars compacta are ain the midbrain. The PD cause is still unknown and seems to be multifactorial. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial impairment have been the main consequences, which offer prominent clues regarding the disease mechanisms. The effect of free radicals and oxidative stress on the cascade of events resulting in dopamine cell degeneration in PD has been demonstrated. In-built protective mechanisms, including enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants within the CNS, effectively prevent neuronal cell loss because of free radicals. However, aging is associated with a decrease in the production of these antioxidants. Thus, antioxidant therapy alone or combined with available treatment methods offers an attractive method to treat or prevent neurodegeneration in PD. We summarized the recent discoveries of potential antioxidant agents to modulate free radical-mediated oxidative stress resulting in neurotoxicity in...

The main objective of this present work is to evaluate the anthelmintic activity of crude alcohol extracts of the flowers of kachnar (Bauhinia variegata) against Pheretima posthuma as a test worm. The activity was assessed by worm motility assay, which involved the determination of time of paralysis and death of worms. The preliminary phytochemical study of the alcoholic extract was also carried out. The alcoholic extracts exhibited a dose-dependent (25, 50, and 100 mg/ml) inhibition of spontaneous motility and time of death of the worms. The alcoholic extract was found to be effective; the activity was comparable with the standard drug Piperazine citrate and water as a control....
