Description:

This volume of the International Journal of Pharmacology, Phytochemistry and Ethnomedicine outlines the latest scientific findings dealt with evaluation of the neuropharmacological activities of Wild Indigo (Baptisia australis R.Br.) roots methanol extract; estimation of the antioxidant capabilities of Dennettia tripetala Baker f. fruits in preventing liver and kidney damage in rats influenced by one dose of Carbon tetrachloride; investigation of the content of phenol compounds and flavonoids obtained from “Chemlali” olive leaf (Olea europaea L.) collected in Algeria with following assessment in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the phenolic extracts as well as analysis of the amount of phenolic compounds in red currant (Ribes rubrum L.) berries and raspberries (Rubus idaeus L.) by an optimized HPLC method; study of different dietary sources of non-starch polysaccharides impact on growth traits, physiological and immune responses and also gene expression of intestinal GLUT2 in chickens; exploration of the range of physiological parameters in experimental breast cancer induced by intermammary administration of N-Methyl-N-Nitrosourea in Wistar rats; examination of the effects of D-002 (beeswax alcohols) on the esophageal histological changes in rats with duodeno-esophageal reflux esophagitis.

In addition several reviews are delivered in this volume. First mini-review observes the herbicide Atrazine disruptive influence on human metabolism, reproduction, immune system, cell division. The second review is devoted to the standard pharmacological approaches and alternative medicine for prevention of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. The last mini-review shows recent discoveries of flavonoids and diarylheptanoids for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases
