Breast cancer (BC) is a multifactorial disease involving many pathways and target molecules. Multi-target therapy through multi-compound herbal medicines is an alternative strategy to treat BC. In the present study, we elucidate the molecular mechanism of Ocimum basilicum (OB) as an anticancer agent using system bioinformatic approach and investigate its cytotoxic effect against MCF-7 cells. We performed network pharmacology (NP) and molecular docking studies to provide scientific information regarding the underlying anti-BC mechanism of OB. Based on topology parameters obtained from protein-protein interaction (PPI), we identified six potential targets that play a significant role in the network including SRC, PI3KCA, EGFR, ESR1, AKT1, and MAPK1. Furthermore, consensus docking suggested rutin, quercetin-3-O-diglucoside, and kaempferol-3-O-β-D-rutinoside as the potential compounds of OB. Moreover, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis demonstrated that the cytotoxic effect of OB might be related to the modulation of several pathways such as PI3K-Akt, VEGF, and HIF-1, breast cancer, and estrogen signaling pathways. The in vitro assay revealed that various extracts of OB demonstrated cytotoxic effects against MCF-7 with IC₅₀ = 231 µg/mL (OB ethanolic extract), 408 µg/mL (OB methanolic extract), 479 µg/mL (OB ethyl acetate extract), 1887 µg/mL (OB n-hexanoic extract) and 767 µg/mL (OB butanolic extract) respectively.

This review aims to comprehensively examine spent coffee grounds (SCGs) as a sustainable source of antioxidant and immunomodulatory bioactives, with a specific focus on their capacity to modulate membrane-level signaling through ion channels and G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the context of lifestyle-related chronic diseases. SCGs, the major solid by-product of coffee brewing, represent an underutilized yet highly abundant source of bioactive compounds, including chlorogenic acids, phenolic acids, melanoidins, diterpenes, and residual alkaloids. Lifestyle-related chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and chronic inflammatory disorders, are increasingly recognized as immunometabolic conditions driven by persistent low-grade inflammation, redox imbalance, and dysregulated membrane signaling. This review synthesizes current evidence demonstrating that bioactives contained in SCG extracts exert antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects that extend beyond radical scavenging. Crucially, these compounds also act as modulators of membrane-level signaling, representing a mechanistic perspective that has not been previously integrated for SCGs in the context of chronic disease. The different extraction methodologies and the obtained results are evaluated with the aim to identify the most effective experimental approach and extraction conditions. The paper also discusses how SCG compounds regulate redox-sensitive ion channels (including calcium channels, TRP channels, and potassium channels), and key GPCR pathways (such as GPR120, GPR43, and adenosine receptors), thereby influencing immune cell activation, cytokine production, insulin signaling, and metabolic inflammation. Particular attention is given to the role of microbial fermentation and enzymatic processing in enhancing SCG bioavailability, generating postbiotic metabolites that further engage GPCR–ion channel crosstalk. By integrating extraction approaches, antioxidant chemistry, immunology, membrane signaling, and nutritional metabolism, this review positions SCG as a sustainable functional ingredient capable of restoring immune tolerance and metabolic homeostasis. These insights support the valorization of SCGs within the circular economy framework and highlight their potential application in next-generation immunonutrition strategies for chronic disease prevention and management.

Background:Crinum asiaticum leaves are recognized for their wound healing properties, particularly in treating abrasive or inflamed wounds. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a transdermal patch prepared from Crinum asiaticum leaf extracts in reducing inflammation. Methods: The preparation involved applying coconut oil to the fruit, roasting it, and then using it on the affected area. Leaf samples and extracts were utilized to formulate transdermal patches at three different concentrations (1%, 3%, and 5%). The patches were assessed organoleptically for thickness, weight uniformity, folding resistance, and pH. Results: The findings demonstrated that the 5% concentration transdermal patches exhibited superior anti-inflammatory effects compared to the 1% and 3% concentrations. This suggests that higher concentrations of Crinum asiaticum extracts enhance the therapeutic potential of transdermal applications. Conclusion: The study concludes that transdermal patches formulated with Crinum asiaticum leaves are effective in reducing inflammation, with 5% concentration offering the highest efficacy. Further research is recommended to explore the clinical applications of these patches in wound management.

Observational studies and randomised controlled studies suggest Increased prevalence of hyperuricemia is a decrease in physical activity and high consumption of purines. Disruption of urate reabsorption causes changes in the main functions of transporter proteins in the proximal tubule membrane. One of them is the intake of URAT1 and efflux by GLUT9 and also for the expression of SGLT2. Insulin resistance causes disturbances in glucose uptake in (SGLT2) and urate. The mechanism of glucose uptake can be mediated by exercise and effect of melinjo skin extract. A Technical Expert Panel (TEP) of 2 medical specialist and expertise of disorder the urinary system performed the review using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews) model. The TEP planned a research on PubMed selecting œHyperuricemia as MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) term adding to PubMed Search Builder the terms œExercise and œMelinjo skin extract. TEP is considered for eligibility articles published within the last 10 years, including original research, in particular in vitro studies, and animal and clinical studies in English. Results: Of the 90 identified studies, TEP included 15 studies, 8 animals, and 4 clinical studies and 3 Review. Conclusion: Our scoping review describes and summarizes the important role of exercise and the effect of melinjo peel extract in modulating uric acid levels, Insulin resistance and up-and-down regulation of urate transportersKeyword: Hyperuricemia, URAT1, GLUT9, SGLT2, Exercise

It is unclear how estrogen receptor beta (ER) affects prognosis in breast cancer that is in the early stages. To determine the predictive value of ER in patients with early-stage breast cancer, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. We looked for studies that evaluated the ER status in breast cancer patients article between 2010 and 2018 by searching Medline, Embase, and the Web of Science. 1700 participants from 18 studies total who met our inclusion and exclusion criteria were included. A Technical Expert Panel (TEP) of 3 medical specialist and expertise of disorder the abnormally cell cycle and cancer performed the review using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews) model. The TEP planned a research on PubMed selecting “cancer” and “Breast Cancer” as MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) term adding to PubMed Search Builder the terms “Estrogen” and “Estrogen receptor”. TEP is considered for eligibility articles published within the last 13 years, including original research, in particular in vitro studies, and animal and clinical studies in English. Results: Of the 90 identified studies, TEP included 15 studies, 8 Systematical Review, and 4 clinical studies and 3 Review report. Our scoping review describes and summarizes the important develop highlyselective anti-ERβ antibodies that are applied to large well characterized human breast cancer samples to validate their diagnostic potential and to explore ERβ-selective agonists in animal models of breast cancer to validate their therapeutic potential
