Abstract:

Costus speciosus is being widely used in Indian folk medicine for treating various disorders. Environmental noise pollution is supposed to be an important factor for many health problems and it causes immune abnormalities. In the present study immune-regulating potential of Costus speciosus extract was evaluated during acute and subacute noise stress conditions. Adult Wistar albino rats were exposed to acute noise stress and subacute noise stress and then the effect of ethanolic Costus speciosus rhizome extract on immunological parameters such as phagocytic index, avidity index, neutrophil adh

Background Costus speciosus (J. Koenig) Sm. (Syn. Cheilocostus speciosus) is an ethnic anti-diabetic plant, used for its high diosgenin content. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the seasonal variation of diosgenin content in Costus speciosus rhizome, quantified through validated RP-HPLC method. Materials and Methods The rhizomes were collected in four different seasons, such as rainy (August), autumn (October), winter (February) and summer (May), from Lucknow, India. The HPLC method validation was done in terms of linearity, precision, repeatability, accuracy, sensitivity and robustness

Abstract:

Costus speciosus is a medicinal plant used in Eastern medicine (also known as Asian medicine) due to its phytochemical content, which has been shown to significantly lower blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. The primary objective of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the antidiabetic potential of diosgenin, costunolide and eremanthin from Costus speciosus, in comparison to the standard drug, acarbose. Molecular docking studies revealed that diosgenin exhibited the highest potential as a natural antidiabetic agent by inhibiting four diabetic-regulating enzymes with docking
