Vitiligo is a condition of skin discoloration caused by the destruction of pigment cells and melanocytes of the skin.
The condition, in most cases, is localized. However, in some patients, the disease also can affect several different areas of the body.
Symptoms of vitiligo are associated with the loss of skin color, or white, and patches of skin.
The exact cause of vitiligo is unknown, however, some researchers suggest that the disease may be caused by an immune overreaction that mistakenly attacks and destroys certain cells within the body.
Epidemiologically, people in the younger age group before the age of 40 are at most risk of vitiligo.
According to the statistics, over 50% of vitiligo is found in patients who are 20 and younger.
The condition has been found to induce emotional and psychological issues in patients, even if the condition does not cause pain or health problems.
As of today, researchers do not know how to prevent disease onset. Most medications for the treatment of vitiligo including creams that control inflammation, combine psoralen and light therapy focusing on reducing the severity of the condition and improving the quality of life.
If all noninvasive treatments fail, surgery may be necessary.
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belongings to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
In finding a natural compound for the treatment of vitiligo, researchers examined the curcumin effect on the pigment cells of the skin, melanocytes.
Injection of Cucumis melo extract showed to exhibit the production of antioxidants by the host in blocking the effect of free radicals in the induction of skin oxidative stress.
Topical preparation, containing Cucumis melo superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, demonstrated a potential effect in the treatment of vitiligo.
Natural UV or artificial narrowband UVB treatment or phototherapy displayed significant protection against pigment damage, similar to those of turmeric topical preparation.
Additionally, the topical gel according to the repigmentation rate recorded exerted a similar effect compared to the patients treated only with phototherapy with adverse effects.
Moreover, the topical formulation, containing phenylalanine, Cucumis melo extract, and acetylcysteine showed a more promising result combined with nb - UVB target phototherapy.
Based on the findings, turmeric used along with or combined with other conventional medicine may be considered remedies for the prevention and treatment of vitiligo pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

#Herbal #Bilberry's Extracts Reduce the Risk of Vascular Disease, Researchers Show
Kyle J. Norton
Vasoprotection is the action in which substances including herbal and natural remedies are used to protect the integrity of the blood vessels.
Blood vessels are the tubular structure including a vein, artery, or capillary which carries the blood through the tissues and organs pumped by the heart.
There are 3 main types of blood vessel
* Arteries that deliver oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the tissues and organs of the body. Damage of arteries is found to induce coronary artery disease caused by narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries due to plaques accumulated on the arterial wall.
* Veins that carry blood toward the heart. Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a common condition associated with a disease of the veins that affects up to 20 percent of adults.
* Capillaries (the smallest blood vessels) have been found to induce systemic capillary leak syndrome (SCLS) is a rare acquired disorder.
Some researchers suggested that following a healthy diet accompanied by moderate exercise may have a strong impact on the blood vessels' integrity.
Dr. Hanrui Zhang said, "Accumulating evidence suggests that inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) plays a pivotal role in the dysregulation of macrovascular and microvascular function".
And, "Dietary supplements and exercise training decrease TNFαproduction and ameliorate TNFα-mediated pathological changes in vasculature. Thus, the inhibitory effects of dietary supplements and physical exercise on TNFα production and TNFα signaling may contribute to their vasoprotective properties".
Bilberry is a species of low-growing shrubs in the genus Vaccinium, belonging to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern Europe.
The plant berry has been used as herbs in traditional medicine for the treatment of acute and chronic diarrhea, gastritis, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, enterocolitis, ulcerative colitis, anemia, cystitis, kidney disease, psoriasis, diabetes, etc.
On finding a natural ingredient that processes vasoactive and vasoprotective properties, researchers examined the effects of anthocyanin-rich extracts prepared from chokeberry (Ck), bilberry (B), or elderberry (E). on reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in the impairment of nitric oxide-mediated vascular functions.
In Coronary arterial rings isolated from 64 pigs and incubated in sterile tissue culture media overnight, Ck and B, but not E, produced dose- and endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation.
In coronary vascular tone, endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation by other factors was not affected by exposure of rings to any extract at 0.05 mg total anthocyanins per liter for 5 or 30 min.
Furthermore, anthocyanin-enhanced extracts produce endothelium-dependent relaxation in porcine coronary arteries.
However, high doses of B exerted a significant protective effect against the alternation of coronary arteries induced by ROS with no effect on vasorelaxation to endogenous or exogenous NO.
Based on the findings, researchers wrote, "These results suggest that such extracts could have significant beneficial effects in vascular disease".
Taken together, bilberry-processed abundantly bioactive compound anthocyanin may be considered a functioning remedy for the prevention and treatment of vascular disease, pending the validation of a larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Herbal #Turmeric Promotes Colonic Health by Enhancing the Ratio of Human Gut Microbiota, According to Studies
Kyle J. Norton
Gut microbiota is a community of microbes living in the gastrointestinal tract. Believe it or not, there are trillions of microorganisms, including at least 1,000 different species of known bacteria with more than 3 million genes.
In a healthy individual, the ratio of good and bad microbes in the gut are balanced. However, people who are under constant stress or have a psychological condition such as anxiety, and depression, and long-term use of antibiotics may have a negative impact on the ratio.
In other words, emotional problems, the use of antibiotics may alter the ratio of the microbes in the gut, leading to inflammation, oxidative stress, and blood sugar imbalances.
Dr. Ruth K. Dudek-Wicher, the lead scientists wrote, "Gut microbial imbalance (dysbiosis) has been linked to important human diseases and inflammation-related disorders".
And, "...the impact of different antibiotics causing such long-term consequences as decreased microbial diversity, modulation of the Bacteroidetes/Firmicutes ratio, Clostridium difficile overgrowth, and increased expansion of the opportunistic pathogens Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia spp., and Klebsiella spp.".
More precisely, imbalanced gut community microbes ratio can induce certain health problems including
* Decreasing the interaction with the immune function against inflammatory immune disorders.
* Increasing the risk of gastrointestinal diseases and non-gastrointestinal diseases caused by overexpression of bad bacteria.
* Reducing nutrient extraction from the diet, thus increasing the risk of obesity and obesity complications.
* Failure to control brain insulin signaling and metabolite levels can lead to bad neurobehaviors.
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as an anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
In finding a natural compound for the improvement of bacterial composition in the gut, researchers
examined the effects of curcumin in the gut microbiota in dysbiosis, a condition that links to many metabolic diseases.
According to the tested assays, curcumin and its derivatives exerted direct regulative effects on the gut microbiota by increasing the ratio of bacteria composition in the flavor of good bacteria.
Furthermore, in the testing the turmeric tablets in the gut microbiota determined by 16S rDNA sequencing, researchers divided.14 healthy human subjects into 3 groups with extract of piperine (Bioperine) (n = 6), curcumin with Bioperine tablets (n = 5), or placebo tablets (n = 3).
According to the bacterial analysis, turmeric-treated subjects displayed a modest 7% increase in observed species compared to control with an overall reduction in species by 15%.
Moreover, curcumin displayed an average increase of 69% in detected species, depending on the gut microbiota response to individual subjects.
More precisely, in "responsive" subjects curcumin increased in most Clostridium spp., Bacteroides spp., Citrobacter spp., Cronobacter spp., Enterobacter spp., Enterococcus spp., Klebsiella spp., Parabacteroides spp., and Pseudomonas spp. and reduced relative abundance of several Blautia spp. and most Ruminococcus spp.
In other words, curcumin improved the ratio of gut microbiota by stimulating the production of "good bacterial and reducing the levels of "bad" bacterias in the colon.
Based on the findings, researchers wrote, "All participants' microbiota displayed significant variation over time and individualized response to treatment. Among the responsive participants, both turmeric and curcumin altered the gut microbiota in a highly similar manner".
Taken altogether, turmeric may be considered a supplement for the prevention and treatment of an imbalanced ratio of gut microbiome composition, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

#Healthyfood #Onion Protects the Neurons Against the Risk of Neurological Diseases, According to Studies
Neuroprotection is a process to preserve the neuronal structure and/or function against the death or gradual death of neurons, including the use of medicines and herbs.
In other words, neuroprotection protects the neuronal integrity against the reduction in the rate of neuronal loss over time inducing neurological disease, including neurodegenerative disease.
Neurodegenerative disease is the class of conditions associated with the progressive loss of neurons that occurs mostly in older adults, including dementia. The most common dementia in the US is Alzheimer`s disease (AD).
Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible, progressive brain disorder caused by the slow loss of neuron in the brain that affects memory and thinking skills and, eventually, the ability to carry out the simplest tasks as the disease progress into an advanced stage.
According to the statistics, dementia affects over 47.5 million people worldwide, and approximately 58 percent are living in low and middle-income countries.
Believe it or not, 5.8 million Americans of all ages are living with Alzheimer's dementia in 2019 and two-thirds of people with Alzheimer's disease are women.
Conventionally, as of today, there is no cure for dementia. Treatment of dementia is focusing to improve dementia symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease.
Some researchers suggested that the increased incidence of the onset of Alzheimer's disease over the past few decades may be correlated to the promotion of a high-fat diet in the US.
Dr. Rollins CPE, the lead scientist wrote, "HFD-induced obesity during adolescence exacerbated brain volume alterations by adult life in the 3xTg mouse model in comparison to control-fed mice and mediated volumetric alterations of select brain regions, such as the hippocampus".
And, "Further, HFD-induced obesity aggravated memory in all mice, lowering certain memory measures of B6129s control mice to the level of 3xTg mice maintained on a CD. Moreover, a decline in the volumetric trajectories of hippocampal regions for all mice was associated with the degree of spatial memory impairments on the MWM.".
The onion is a plant in the genus Allium, belonging to the family Alliaceae, a closely related to garlic. It is often called the "king of vegetables" because of its pungent taste and found in a large number of recipes and preparations spanning almost the totality of the world's cultures.
Depending on the variety, an onion can be sharp, spicy, tangy, pungent, mild or sweet.
In finding a potential compound for the treatment of cognitive impairment, researchers examined the neuroprotective potential of Allium cepa (A. cepa, Onion) in aluminum chloride-induced animal model neurotoxicity.
The study included mice induced neurotoxicity by aluminum chloride (50 mg/kg/day) orally were treated by supplemented with different doses of A. cepa hydroethanolic extract for a period of 60 days.
Before the treatment of onion, aluminum chloride treated mice resulted in significant motor incoordination and memory deficits, observed by the increased oxidative stress and elevated levels of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and aluminum levels in the brain.
Onion supplement injection in aluminum-exposed animals not only significantly improved muscle coordination and memory deficits but also decreased the levels of oxidative stress, and AChE and decreased abnormal aluminum deposition induced by the aluminum chloride.
Decreased vacuolated cytoplasm associated with the death of neurons and pyramidal cells in the hippocampal area of the mice brain caused by toxicity was also reversed by the injection of A. cepa supplementation.
The results strongly suggested that onion processes anti-neuro-toxicity induced cognitive impairment in an animal model.
Dr. Singh T, the lead scientist, after taking other factors into account wrote, "significant neuroprotective potential of A. cepa in aluminum-induced neurotoxicity".
Taken altogether, onion may be considered a neuroprotective remedy, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Herbal #Ashwagandha (WA) #Extracts (Alcoholic and Water) Exert Neuroprotective Potential, Researchers Show
Kyle J. Norton
The brain formed part of the central nervous system is the most complex organ made up of more than billions of nerve cells or neurons.
The functions of the brain are associated with the communication of trillions of connections called synapses and many specialized regions.
A neuron or nerve cell made of a cell body (also called soma), dendrites, and an axon, is a cell in the nervous system that carries electrical impulses.
Neurons are core components of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves that play an essential role in processing and transmitting information.
The function of neurons can be classified into 3 types
* The sensory neurons found within the nervous system that convert external stimuli from the organism's environment into internal electrical impulses. In other words, sensory neurons are activated by sensory input from the environment, including physical input of sound, touch, heat, or light.
* The motor neurons transmit information from the spinal cord to skeletal and smooth muscles,. In other words, motor neurons directly control all of the muscle movements.
* The interneurons connect the motor and sensory neurons. In other words, the interneurons transfer signals between sensory and motor neurons.
Believe it or not, there are more than 600 diseases of the central nervous system, including brain tumors, epilepsy, dementia such as Parkinson's disease Alzheimer's disease, and stroke.
The top 3 of neurological diseases include
* Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease in the elderly, associated with the worsening of memory, thinking, and behavior that severe enough to affect language communication, memory, lifelong hobbies, or social life
* Bell's Palsy is a condition caused by sudden weakness or paralysis of facial muscles on one side of the face.
* Cerebral Palsy is a neurological disorder of children affecting a child's movement, motor skills, and muscle tone.
Ashwagandha also known as Withania somnifera is a nightshade plant in the genus of Withania, belonging to the family Solanaceae, native to the dry parts of India, North Africa, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.
The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine for over 3000 years to treat tumors and tubercular glands, carbuncles, memory loss, and ulcers and considered an anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.
In finding a potent compound for the treatment of brain health, researchers examined the effects of Ashwagandha (WA) extracts (alcoholic and water) and their bioactive components for neuroprotective activities against oxidative stress in cultured glioblastoma and neuroblastoma cells.
According to the tested analysis, the extracts and one of the purified components at a low dose protected the glial and neuronal cells from oxidation, an important activity that promotes neuron activity.
Furthermore, glutamate insult induced by oxidative stress was also inhibited by the application of Ashwagandha (WA) extracts (alcoholic and water) and their bioactive components.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "the combinations of extracts and active component were highly potent endorsing the therapeutic merit of the combinational approach".
And, "Ashwagandha leaf-derived bioactive compounds have neuroprotective potential and may serve as a supplement for brain health".
Taken together, Ashwagandha may be considered a functional herb for the promotion of brain functioning, pending the result of a larger sample size and multicenter study

* The sensory neurons found within the nervous system that convert external stimuli from the organism's environment into internal electrical impulses. In other words, sensory neurons are activated by sensory input from the environment, including physical input of sound, touch, heat, or light.
* The motor neurons transmit information from the spinal cord to skeletal and smooth muscles,. In other words, motor neurons directly control all of the muscle movements.
* The interneurons connect the motor and sensory neurons. In other words, the interneurons transfer signals between sensory and motor neurons.
Believe it or not, there are more than 600 diseases of the central nervous system, including brain tumors, epilepsy, dementia such as Parkinson's disease Alzheimer's disease, and stroke.
The top 3 of neurological diseases include
* Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease in the elderly, associated with the worsening of memory, thinking, and behavior that severe enough to affect language communication, memory, lifelong hobbies, or social life
* Bell's Palsy is a condition caused by sudden weakness or paralysis of facial muscles on one side of the face.
* Cerebral Palsy is a neurological disorder of children affecting a child's movement, motor skills, and muscle tone.
Ashwagandha also known as Withania somnifera is a nightshade plant in the genus of Withania, belonging to the family Solanaceae, native to the dry parts of India, North Africa, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.
The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine for over 3000 years to treat tumors and tubercular glands, carbuncles, memory loss, and ulcers and considered an anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.
In finding a potent compound for the treatment of brain health, researchers examined the effects of Ashwagandha (WA) extracts (alcoholic and water) and their bioactive components for neuroprotective activities against oxidative stress in cultured glioblastoma and neuroblastoma cells.
According to the tested analysis, the extracts and one of the purified components at a low dose protected the glial and neuronal cells from oxidation, an important activity that promotes neuron activity.
Furthermore, glutamate insult induced by oxidative stress was also inhibited by the application of Ashwagandha (WA) extracts (alcoholic and water) and their bioactive components.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "the combinations of extracts and active component were highly potent endorsing the therapeutic merit of the combinational approach".
And, "Ashwagandha leaf-derived bioactive compounds have neuroprotective potential and may serve as a supplement for brain health".
Taken together, Ashwagandha may be considered a functional herb for the promotion of brain functioning, pending the result of a larger sample size and multicenter study

#Phytochemical 3,3'-Diindolylmethane Induces Pancreatic Cancer Cells Apoptosis, Scietnists Show
Kyle J. Norton
Scientists may have found a bioactive ingredient for the treatment of pancreatic cancer with no side effects, according to studies.
Pancreatic cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth in the tissue of the pancreas.
Most cases of pancreatic cancer start in the cell on the surface of the inner lining of the pancreatic tissue, before penetrating into the deeper layers to form a large and invasive tumor.
At the early stage, patients with pancreatic cancer may be asymptomatic. However, at the later stage, besides the common symptoms shared by all types of cancer such as unintended weight loss, loss of appetite, fatigue, and gastrointestinal discomforts, patients with the condition may also experience localized symptoms such as internal bleeding and severe pain due to the oversize tumor which suppresses the nerve cells and blood vessels.
According to the statistics, in the US, every year, approximately 55,440 adults (29,200 men and 26,240 women) are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
The 5-year survival rate including all stages of people with pancreatic cancer is 8%, compared to 32% of cancer detected at an early stage.
The exact causes of pancreatic cancer are identified. However, epidemiological studies suggested that the increase in age, family history, race, gender, smoking, being obese or overweight and a medical condition such as diabetes is the most prevalent risk of the disease.
Some researchers indicated that genetic preposition may have a strong implication in the initiation of the onset of pancreatic cancer.
Dr. Alison P. Klein wrote, "These consist of high penetrance genes including BRCA2 or PALB2, to more common genetic variation associated with a modest increased risk of pancreatic cancer such as genetic variation at the ABO blood group locus".
3,3'-Diindolylmethane or DIM are phytochemicals derived from the digestion of indole-3-carbinol, belonging to the group of Indoles, found abundantly in broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, kale, etc.
In finding a bioactive ingredient for the treatment of pancreatic cancer, researchers investigated the 3,3'-Diindolylmethane (DIM), ring-substituted DIMs and 1,1-bis(3'-indolyl)-1-(p-substitutedphenyl) methanes (C-DIMs) against the growth of Panc-1 and Panc-28 pancreatic cancer cells.
According to assays, Both DIM and DIM-C-pPhtBu induced pancreatic cancer cells. apoptosis observed by the increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) staining and ER calcium release in Panc-1 cells.
Glucose-regulated protein 78, a protein in the endoplasmic reticulum in the cell played an important role in cellular adaptation and oncogenic survival also increased by the injection of both DIM and DIM-C-pPhtBu.
Furthermore, both DIM and DIM-C-pPhtBu. also exerted a significant activity against the pancreatic cancer cells through increasing the C/EBP homologous transcription factor in the regulation of cell apoptosis in response to cellular oxidative stress, similar to those of thapsigargin (Tg).
Moreover, DIM/DIM-C-pPhtBu- and Tg-induced ER stress in facilitating pancreatic cancer cell death through cell death receptors and proteins associated with programming cell death.
Dr. the lead scientists after taking into account co and confounders wrote in the final report, "Activation of both receptor-dependent and receptor-independent (ER stress) pathways by DIM and DIM-C-pPhtBu in pancreatic cancer cells enhances the efficacy and potential clinical importance of these compounds for cancer chemotherapeutic applications".
Additionally, in order to reveal more information about DIM-induced pancreatic cancer cell apoptosis, researchers analyzed the DIM effect by examining the process through multiple molecular assays.
According to the Western blot analysis, 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM) a chemopreventive agent, specifically its more bioavailable formulation, B-DIM, inhibited Par-4, in L3.6pl and Colo-357 pancreatic cancer cells at low doses (20 micromol/L).
At similar doses, DIM reduced cell viability and caused cell growth inhibition and apoptosis.
Also, pretreatment of DIM sensitized the cells to the cytotoxic action of the chemotherapeutic drug gemcitabine.
In other words, DIM not only processed anti-pancreatic cancer cell proliferation and induced apoptosis but also promoted the chemotherapeutic drug cytotoxic activity against pancreatic cancer cells.
Taken altogether, 3,3'-Diindolylmethane derived from the digestion of indole-3-carbinol may be considered a supplement for the prevention and treatment of pancreatic cancer, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of 3,3'-diindolylmethane in the form of a supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

#Bromelain Inhibits Fibrinogen Synthesis Associated with Anti Blood Coagulation, Researchers Suggest
Kyle J. Norton
Coagulation is the process of forming a blood clot. Coagulation is also used by the immune system to cover the wound or cut it to prevent additional blood loss and protect the body against the invasion of foreign microorganisms.
More precisely, in the acute phase of infection, the immune system activates the fibrin together with small blood cell fragments called platelets, to form the clot. The clots are removed after healing.
However, excessive blood clotting associated with certain diseases and conditions, genetic mutations, and medicines, particularly in the aging population has been found to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Excessive blood clotting can be classified into acquired and genetic excessive blood clotting
* Risk factors associated with acquired excessive blood clotting are smoking, overweight, obesity, pregnancy, use of birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy,...
* The genetic preposition of clotting occurs in the mutation of proteins associated with blood clotting including mutated proteins that cause delay or dissolve blood clots such as Factor V Leiden and
Prothrombin gene mutation.
The most common diseases associated with excessive blood clotting include venous thromboembolism or DVT which involves the deep veins in the legs and arterial thrombosis which involves in the arteries of the heart.
Conventionally, most cases of excessive blood clotting are treated by anticoagulants. In life-threatening blood clots, thrombolytics can dissolve clots that are already formed.
Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) has been used in traditional medicine as an inflammatory agent and to treat pains, strains, muscle aches and pains and ease back pain and chronic joint pain, skin diseases, etc.
In finding a potential compound for the treatment of blood coagulation, researchers examined the bromelain coagulation-inhibiting effects.
In an animal model, bromelain enhanced the activity of serum fibrinolysis by inhibiting the fibrinogen synthesis involving hepatocytes in the final stages of the blood coagulation process.
Additionally, the anti-blood coagulative activity also exhibits the direct degradation of fibrin and fibrinogen associated with the clotting of blood.
Furthermore, bromelain lowers kininogen and bradykinin serum which are involved in the contact activation of the blood coagulation process.
Additionally, bromelain also influences prostaglandin synthesis which serves the physiological function of preventing needless clot formation.
Moreover, these effects of bromelain are also dose-dependent.
Taken together, bromelain may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of blood coagulation, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
