Abstract:
Aim: The present research work was carried out to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and anthelminthic activity of the extracts of Polygonum alpinum rhizomes. Methods: Fresh rhizomes of the P. alpinum were collected, washed and shade dried. The methanolic and aqueous extracts were first tested for phytochemical screening. In-vitro anti-inflammatory activities of crude extracts were evaluated by HRBC (Human Red Blood Cell) membrane stabilization method and percentage inhibition of protein denaturation method. Similarly anti-helminthic activity was evaluated using earthworms of 6-8 cm in length and 0.3-0.4 cm in width and the results were compared with standard drug Albendazole. Results: Phytochemical analysis of the extract reveals the of presence of Carbohydrates, Cardiac glycosides, Coumarins, proteins, amino acids, flavonoids, saponins, steroids, terpenoids, tannins and phenolics. The methanolic extract showed potent membrane stabilizing and significantly inhibit protein denaturation as compared to standard indomethacin. Methanolic extract at the concentration of 125μg/mL showed 81.29% membrane stabilizing activity as compared to aqueous extract 64.72%. Standard indomethacin showed 95.56 % activity at the same concentration. Similarly, methanolic extract at 500μg/mL showed 72.70% inhibition of protein denaturation as compared to aqueous extract 64.72%. Standard indomethacin showed 88.26% inhibition of protein denaturation at the same concentration. Both the methanolic and aqueous extracts showed dose dependent anthelminthic activity as compared to standard Albendazole. Conclusion: These results suggest that both the extracts from P. alpinum have promising anti-inflammatory and anthelmintic activity and that more broadly; plant extracts are a potential rich source of anti-inflammatory and anthelmintics to combat these diseases.

Abstract:
To study the anti-inflammatory effect of Punica granatum extract against the oral microbes. Oral diseases continue to be a major health problem worldwide. Dental caries and periodontal diseases are among the most important global oral health problems, although conditions such as oral and pharyngeal cancers and oral tissue lesions are also significant health concerns. Pomegranate extracts have been used for centuries in traditional medicine to confer health benefits in a number of inflammatory diseases, microbial infections and cancer. The anti-inflammatory activity of pomegranate extract was evaluated by protein denaturation assay, and the results were read spectrophotometrically. Denaturation of proteins is a great‐ documented cause of inflammation. As a part of the investigation on the mechanism of the anti-inflammatory activity, the ability to extract to inhibit protein denaturation was studied. It was effective in inhibiting heat induced albumin denaturation at different concentrations as shown in Table 1. Maximum inhibition, 70.12±1.12% was observed at500µg/ml. IC50 value was found to be 105.35±1.99µg/ml. Aspirin, a standard anti-inflammatory drug showed the maximum inhibition, 77.12±1.42% at the concentration of 200µg/ml. Hence it can be concluded that pomegranate extract has anti-inflammatory property and also can be used in products such as toothpaste and mouth wash etc.

Abstract:
It has been estimated and demonstrated that the antioxidant capacity of proteins is increased as a result of digestion in the gastrointestinal tract, which can be contributed by denaturation and digestion. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of denaturation and proteolytic digestion on the antioxidant activity of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and chicken egg white proteins in model systems. Denaturation with an anionic detergent (sodium dodecyl sulfate) and digestion with papain and trypsin increased the antioxidant activity/capacity of the proteins, apparently due to the increased exposure of amino acid residues responsible for the antioxidant activity of proteins (tyrosine, tryptophan, cysteine, histidine, arginine, and cystine in the ABTS● decolorization assay; cysteine, tryptophan, tyrosine, and cystine in the FRAP assay). As the increase in the protein antioxidant activity/capacity was limited in extent, it does not invalidate the use of the antioxidant capacity of proteins to be consumed as a rough measure of their antioxidant capacity after modifications in the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract:
Using a number of optical techniques (interferometry, dynamic light scattering, and spectroscopy), denaturation of hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) by treatment with a combination of dithiothreitol (DTT) and guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl) has been investigated. The denaturing solutions were selected so that protein denaturation occurred with aggregation (Tris-HCl pH = 8.0, 50 mM, DTT 30 mM) or without aggregation (Tris-HCl pH = 8.0, 50 mM, DTT 30 mM, GdnHCl 6 M) and can be evaluated after 60 min of treatment. It has been found that denatured by solution with 6 M GdnHCl lysozyme completely loses its enzymatic activity after 30 min and the size of the protein molecule increases by 1.5 times, from 3.8 nm to 5.7 nm. Denaturation without of GdnHCl led to aggregation with preserving about 50% of its enzymatic activity. Denaturation of HEWL was examined using interferometry. Previously, it has been shown that protein denaturation that occurs without subsequent aggregation leads to an increase in the refractive index (Δn ~ 4.5 × 10−5). This is most likely due to variations in the HEWL–solvent interface area. By applying modern optical techniques conjointly, it has been possible to obtain information on the nature of time-dependent changes that occur inside a protein and its hydration shell as it undergoes denaturation.

Abstract:
Determining cellular activities of protein kinases is a fundamental step for characterizing pathophysiological cell signaling pathways. Here, we optimized a nonradioactive method that detects protein kinases in tissues or cells after separation by SDS-PAGE and transfer onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The method, kinase activity-tagged western blotting (KAT-WB), consists of five steps: electrophoresis of cell extracts that contain protein kinases, electroblotting proteins onto polyvinylidene fluoride membrane, denaturation–renaturation, phosphorylation, with or without an added substrate protein and immunodetection using anti-phospho-specific antibodies. KAT-WB detected autophosphorylation of one Tyr-kinase and site-specific phosphorylation of added substrate by multiple kinases. KAT-WB assay enables us to interrogate multiple kinase signaling pathways without using radioactive ATP.

Abstract:
Inflammation is a manifestation of the immune response to eliminate antigens and a process to respond to tissue damage. There are various drugs to control and suppress inflammation, referred to as anti-inflammatory agents. One method to test anti-inflammatory activity is the inhibition of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) protein denaturation. This review article will discuss the stages and optimal conditions in the inhibition of BSA protein denaturation method using various leaf extract samples. Literature was gathered from several journal database websites such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar with keywords "anti-inflammatory," "inhibition of BSA protein denaturation," and "leaf extract," spanning publication years from 2002 to 2023. The results of anti-inflammatory activity tests can be expressed as either percentage inhibition or IC50 values. Optimal conditions were obtained by preparing a 0.2% BSA solution with Tris Buffer Saline (TBS), maintaining a 9:1 composition ratio between the BSA solution and the sample, and heating at an optimal denaturation temperature of 70 °C. Before conducting tests using this method, it is crucial to ensure that the suspected active compounds with anti-inflammatory activity are not degraded at this heating temperature.

Full text
Abstract:
The initiation of simian virus 40 (SV40) replication requires recognition of the viral origin of replication (ori) by SV40 T antigen, followed by denaturation of ori in a reaction dependent upon human replication protein A (hRPA). To understand how origin denaturation is achieved, we constructed a 48-bp SV40 "pseudo-origin" with a central 8-nucleotide (nt) bubble flanked by viral sequences, mimicking a DNA structure found within the SV40 T antigen-ori complex. hRPA bound the pseudo-origin with similar stoichiometry and an approximately fivefold reduced affinity compared to the binding of a 48-nt single-stranded DNA molecule. The presence of hRPA not only distorted the duplex DNA flanking the bubble but also resulted in denaturation of the pseudo-origin substrate in an ATP-independent reaction. Pseudo-origin denaturation occurred in 7 mM MgCl2, distinguishing this reaction from Mg2+-independent DNA-unwinding activities previously reported for hRPA. Tests of other single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBs) revealed that pseudo-origin binding correlates with the known ability of these SSBs to support the T-antigen-dependent origin unwinding activity. Our results suggest that hRPA binding to the T antigen-ori complex induces the denaturation of ori including T-antigen recognition sequences, thus releasing T antigen from ori to unwind the viral DNA. The denaturation activity of hRPA has the potential to play a significant role in other aspects of DNA metabolism, including DNA repair.

Angelica keiskei has potential as an anti-inflammatory agent because it contains chalcone which has been proven to be able to suppress inflammation through inhibiting nitric oxide production and inhibiting the expression of the iNOS and COX-2. The anti-inflammatory potential of Angelica keiskei needs to be tested. This study aimed to determine the anti-inflammatory activity of Angelica keiskei ethanol extract using the protein denaturation inhibition method. Angelica keiskei was extracted using the sonication method with 96% ethanol. The extract was tested for anti-inflammatory activity using the protein denaturation inhibition method with diclofenac sodium as a positive control. The percent of inflammatory inhibition is used to assess sample activity. The results showed that the percent of inflammatory inhibition of Angelica keiskei ethanol extract increased as the test concentration increased. The maximum percent inhibition was obtained at a concentration of 1.5% with the percent of inflammatory inhibition value of 23.14% ± 0.05. Angelica keiskei ethanol extract has anti-inflammatory activity based on in vitro testing using the protein denaturation inhibition method.

In the present study, analysis of in vitro inflammatory showed whole plant of Rhizophora mucronata Lam. (Malpighiales: Rhizophoraceae) can be the potent source. The data from this study showed that the R. mucronata leaf, bark and root extract could serve as an important anti-inflammatory agent. Moreover, among the three extracts, the stilt root and leaves extract showed highest anti inflammatory. In vitro anti-inflammatory activity of the selected plant extracts was evaluated using albumin denaturation, membrane stabilization and proteinase inhibitory assays. As part of the investigation on the mechanism of the anti-inflammation activity, ability of extract protein denaturation was studied. Maximum inhibition (296.26%) was observed from root extract followed by bark (259.48%) and leaf (237.62%). The extracts inhibited the heat induced hemolysis of RBCs to varying degree as show in table below. The maximum inhibition 284.17% was observed from bark extract followed by root (265.05%) and leaf (232.61%). It reveals that these phytochemical constituents are responsible to maximum protection of protein denaturation, albumin denaturation and membrane stabilization assay.

Abstract:
The aim of our present study is to assess the in vitro anti-inflammatory activity against denaturation of proteins whereby the test oil sample at different concentrations was incubated with egg albumin and the absorbance was determined at 660 nm. The anti-arthritic activity was investigated by two methods; firstly, in-vitro method by bovine serum protein denaturation and the absorbance was measured at 255 nm and secondly in vitro method by egg albumin denaturation where the absorbance was measured at 660 nm. In all the studies diclofenac sodium was used as thestandard drug. The physicochemical parameters like colour, solubility, refractive index, boiling point, specific gravity, carbon residue, iodine value, acid value, ester value were evaluated. The different components of the volatile oil were determined by GC-MS analysis. Ten organic compounds were identified out of which Methyl salicylate C8H8O6 was found to be the most dominant organic compound of Gaultheria fragrantissima oil (97.7%). The present results exhibited a concentration dependent inhibition of protein (albumin) denaturation by the test oil. The study reveals that diclofenac sodium was less effective when compared with the test oil. From the present findings it can be concluded that the essential oil of Gaultheria fragrantissima from Meghalaya possessed significant anti-inflammatory and anti- arthritic effects against the denaturation of protein in vitro. This effect could be due to the high content of methyl salicylate (97.7%) which is an inflammation-fighting compound.

ABSTRACT: We have developed a mild, easy, and highly efficient green catalyst for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole. In this study, Ace-dock and DockThore performed molecular docking of the designed benzimidazole molecules with the selected protein FAAH (PDB ID: 3LJ7). We assessed the drug's likeliness (Lipinski's rule of 5) and potential toxicity using the Protox-II software. We can confidently state that the synthesized molecules adhere to Lipinski's rule of five, given that the design molecules' properties are within acceptable limits. In comparison to the reference Ibuprofen, the proposed compounds exhibited favorable pharmacokinetic properties and achieved docking scores ranging from -10.88 to -27.31 (Acedock) and -6.045 to 9.122 (DockThore). We synthesized the benzimidazole derivatives 3a to 3g. Based on an in silico study, we synthesized the molecules, chose the best ones, and then tested their anti-inflammatory action in a lab setting. We employed the albumin denaturation assay test to determine the extent of heat-induced protein denaturation inhibition. Both of the synthesized compounds and the standard drug, diclofenac sodium, inhibit denaturation of proteins at concentrations between 10 and 50 ppm. At a dose of 10 ppm, compound 3f showed the highest level of inhibition, at 70%. Diclofenac sodium exhibited the highest suppression, measuring 97.20% at a concentration of 40 ppm. We could further investigate 3F to determine its anti-inflammatory characteristics.

Abstract:
Maintenance of native structure and function of the protein is a major concern for industrial production of aggregation prone therapeutically important recombinant proteins. Aggregation may results due to change in the native conformation of proteins under different stress conditions. To overcome the problem of protein aggregation, role of silver and gold nanoparticles have been investigated. The nanoparticles owing to their affirmative interaction with the proteins possess chaperoning activities and protect the native state from denaturation. In the present study, through performing chemical denaturation of zebrafish dihydrofolate reductase using denaturants like guanidine hydrochloride and urea in the presence and absence of gold and silver nanoparticles and monitoring the process through enzyme activity assay and intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, we have demonstrated the impact of nanoparticles in maintaining native conformation of proteins. Further, the outcome of refolding studies of DHFR protein with nanoparticles monitored by UV-visible spectroscopy was also reported.

Abstract:
Inflammation is a reaction of living tissues towards injury, and it comprises systemic and local response which is an effective function of immune system. Herbal plants play a major role in the treatment of various types of inflammation. This study evaluates the anti-inflammatory potential of Scoparia dulcis and Boerhavia diffusa, two medicinal plants traditionally used for their therapeutic properties. Ethanolic extracts of both plants were assessed using in vitro methods, including human red blood cell (HRBC) membrane stabilization and protein denaturation assays. Both plants exhibited significant, concentration-dependent anti-inflammatory activity, with Boerhavia diffusa demonstrating superior efficacy. The HRBC stabilization assay showed effective inhibition of haemolysis, while the protein denaturation assay highlighted the ability of the extracts to prevent heat-induced protein denaturation. These effects are attributed to the phytochemical composition of the plants, which includes flavonoids, alkaloids, and other bioactive compounds. Thus, investigational findings suggest that Scoparia dulcis and Boerhavia diffusa possess potential anti-inflammatory activity, so these plants are promising candidates for developing safer, plant-based alternatives to conventional anti-inflammatory drugs. The characterization &amp; isolation of the active principle may help to disclose the mechanism by which they elicit anti-inflammatory activity.

Abstract:
αH-Crystallin, a high molecular weight form of α-crystallin, is one of the major proteins in the lens nucleus. This high molecular weight aggregate (HMWA) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cataracts. We have shown that the chaperone-like activity of HMWA is 40% of that of α-crystallin from the lens cortex. Refolding with urea significantly increased—up to 260%—the chaperone-like activity of α-crystallin and slightly reduced its hydrodynamic diameter (Dh). HMWA refolding resulted in an increase in chaperone-like activity up to 120% and a significant reduction of Dh of protein particles compared with that of α-crystallin. It was shown that the chaperone-like activity of HMWA, α-crystallin, and refolded α-crystallin but not refolded HMWA was strongly correlated with the denaturation enthalpy measured with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The DSC data demonstrated a significant increase in the native protein portion of refolded α-crystallin in comparison with authentic α-crystallin; however, the denaturation enthalpy of refolded HMWA was significantly decreased in comparison with authentic HMWA. The authors suggested that the increase in the chaperone-like activity of both α-crystallin and HMWA could be the result of the correction of misfolded proteins during renaturation and the rearrangement of protein supramolecular structures.

Abstract Background: Rhuflex-F is a proprietary Ayurvedic herbo-mineral formulation clinically used to combat and relieve stiffness in joints and muscles, reduce edema, restore mobility, and also effective in relieving the symptoms of other autoimmune illnesses that lead to rheumatism. Aims: The aim and objective of the research study is to evaluate the efficacy of Rhuflex-F against in vitro protein denaturation and in vivo Freund’s adjuvant-induced arthritis in albino rats. Materials and methods: In vitro inhibition of protein denaturation activity was carried out using bovine serum albumin. For in vivo activity, arthritis was induced by complete Freund’s adjuvant in albino rats. Rhuflex-F (135–270 mg/kg, po) was administered for 30th days in arthritic rats, and effects were assessed on primary and secondary paw edema, on pain response, hematological, serum biochemical parameters (serum transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, urea, uric acid, and orosomucoid), and serum anti-oxidant parameters and adrenal ascorbic acid. Results: Aqueous extract of Rhuflex-F showed in vitro protein denaturation inhibitory activity in a dose-dependent manner. Rhuflex-F showed nonsignificant decrease in primary and secondary paw edema with reduced pain response, some reversal effects on hematological parameters such as white blood cell and red blood cell related parameters and serum orosomucoid and adrenal ascorbic acid in comparison to Fruend’s adjuvant control group. Further, Rhuflex-F reversed Freund’s adjuvant-induced adverse effects on oxidant status in the serum of albino rats. Conclusion: Result of the present study suggested that Rhuflex-F formulation has anti-inflammatory activity, may be due to the inhibition of protein denaturation in vitro and in vivo anti-arthritic activity against complete Freund’s adjuvant-induced arthritis in albino rats.

Abstract:
Herein, we discuss changes in the emulsifying properties of myofibrillar protein (MP) because of protein denaturation and aggregation from quick-frozen pork patties with multiple fat levels and freeze–thaw (F–T) cycles. Protein denaturation and aggregation were confirmed by the significantly increased surface hydrophobicity, turbidity, and particle size, as well as the significantly decreased solubility and absolute zeta potential, of MPs with increases in fat levels and F–T cycles (p &lt; 0.05). After multiple F–T cycles, the emulsifying activity and emulsion stability indices of all samples were significantly reduced (p &lt; 0.05). The emulsion droplets of MP increased in size, and their distributions were dense and irregular. The results demonstrated that protein denaturation and aggregation due to multiple F–T cycles and fat levels changed the distribution of surface chemical groups and particle sizes of protein, thus affecting the emulsifying properties.

Abstract:
Two-dimensional infrared correlation spectroscopy (2D-IR) was applied to the study of urea- and heat-induced unfolding denaturation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SR ATPase). Urea at 2-3 M causes reversible loss of SR ATPase activity, while higher concentrations induce irreversible denaturation. Heat-induced denaturation is a non-two-state process, with an "intermediate state" (at t approximately 45 degrees C) characterized by the presence of protein monomers, instead of the native oligomers. 2D-IR reveals that urea denaturation causes loss of the structural transition to the "intermediate state". Whenever the urea effect can be reversed, the transition to the "intermediate state" is re-established.

The effects of brine salting on sturgeon muscle proteins were studied during the processing of salting at different levels of NaCl . The aim was to observe conformational stability and possible degradation or denaturation of sturgeon protein by determining the biochemical characteristics of protein using Fourier-transform-infrared spectroscopy( FTIR), sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), fluorescence and other means. The salting process significantly decreased the actomyosin content, Ca2+-ATPase activity,total and reactive sulfhydryls (SHs) and increased surface hydrophobicity of actomyosin. The results showed that the processing of salting salting induced the degradation or denaturation of actomyosin. From SDS–PAGE, actin was affected by salt to a lesser extent by the process than myosin heavy chain (MHC). From the FTIR, the secondary structure of protein changed significantly ,especiallyα-helix, at different levels of NaCl .

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: A class of pyrimidine-based molecules was designed for their in silico study, synthesis, and testing for their in vitro anti-inflammatory evaluation. The compounds were tested in an in silico study against anti-inflammatory proteins like FAAH (PDB ID: 4DO3) by using two different software programmes, Ace-dock and Arguslab, and showed promising signs of being a possible drug candidate. In silico toxicity prediction was also done on these compounds. The drug-likeness screening was done to satisfy the Lipinsky rule of five. In our recent investigation, we focused on environment-friendly approaches to synthesising pyrimidine derivatives in the presence of an ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution. The Claisen-Schmidt condensation of acetophenone and various substituted benzaldehydes produces pyrimidine. The pyrimidine derivatives 2a-p and 3a-c were synthesized. The synthesised molecules were screened on the basis of an in silico study, and the molecules were selected and subjected to a check for their in vitro anti-inflammatory activity. A test called the albumin denaturation assay was used to see how much heat-induced protein denaturation could be stopped. The compounds that were synthesised and the standard drug, diclofenac sodium, both stopped protein denaturation at levels ranging from 100 to 500 ppm. Maximum inhibition of 68.59% was observed at the concentration of 100 ppm of compound 2d. Diclofenac sodium showed the maximum inhibition, which was 80.58% at a concentration of 100 ppm. It is concluded that 2d has the potential for further investigation for anti-inflammatory activity.

Abstract Asparagine 54 of α-sarcin is a conserved residue within the proteins of the ribotoxin family of microbial ribonucleases. It is located in loop 2 of the protein, which lacks repetitive secondary structure elements but exhibits a well-defined conformation. Five mutant variants at this residue have been produced and characterized. The spectroscopic characterization of these proteins indicates that the overall conformation is not changed upon mutation. Activity and denaturation assays show that Asn-54 largely contributes to protein stability, and its presence is a requirement for the highly specific inhibitory activity of these ribotoxins on ribosomes.

Abstract:
The most common intracanal medication is calcium hydroxide. Its efficacy can be affected by a number of factors, including pH, serum proteins, collagen, and dentin. It's also ineffective against E. faecalis and fungus, lacks an anti-inflammatory component, and has mixed reviews when it comes to pain relief. Natural alternatives to synthetic intracanal medication are being researched at the moment. We evaluated the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of green synthesized silver nanoparticle based intracanal medicaments. Silver nanoparticles integrated into calcium hydroxide and graphene oxide nanoparticles were the experimental groups and Calcium hydroxide served as the control. Antioxidant activity was determined using the DPPH and Nitric oxide assays, while anti-inflammatory activity was determined using the protein denaturation and Xanthine Oxidase Inhibition assays. Both experimental groups had higher antioxidant activity than the control group based on DPPH and Nitric oxide assays. Calcium hydroxide combined with silver nanoparticles demonstrated improved anti-inflammatory efficacy in a protein denaturation and Xanthine oxidase inhibition assay. Within the constraints of an in vitro study, it can be concluded that intracanal medicaments containing silver nanoparticles can be employed efficiently during root canal preparation. In comparison to standard calcium hydroxide-based intracanal medicaments, it has effective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Concentration gradients from 1000 µg/ml to 0.02 µg/ml were prepared using egg albumin and phosphate buffer saline. The pill was incubated in controlled experimental settings at various concentrations, and the absorbance was measured to quantify the level of albumin denaturation. One NSAID (Ibuprofen) and one steroid (Prednisolone) were used as the reference drugs. The percentage inhibition of protein denaturation at each concentration was calculated by using the formula of (Vt / Vc - 1) x 100% where Vt = absorbance of the test sample and Vc = absorbance of control.&#x0D; Results: The maximum inhibition rate of egg albumin denaturation (46.7%) was seen in the 200 µg/ml concentration, while Prednisolone and Ibuprofen had 2.5% and 24.6% inhibition rates in the same concentration, respectively. Less than 35% inhibition rate of egg albumin denaturation showed in all other concentrations lower than 200 µg/ml (0.1 µg/ml – 100 µg/ml) of this STMP. The inhibition rates of these concentrations did not differ noticeably from those of the reference medications. In addition, the STMP had a 28.3% inhibited rate of egg albumin denaturation in 1000 µg/ml concentration while Prednisolone and Ibuprofen showed low inhibition rates compared to the STMP (3.4% and 13.8% respectively) in this concentration.&#x0D; Conclusion: This study discovered that 200 µg/ml of the tested Sri Lankan Traditional Medicine pill had the strongest anti-inflammatory efficacy against protein denaturation. Furthermore, the effect against albumin denaturation in high-concentration Sri Lankan STMP (200 µg/ml and 1000 µg/ml) surpassed that of the reference drugs, signifying a more pronounced impact.

Abstract:
Inflammation is an immune response triggered by pathogens, toxins, and cellular damage, leading to acute or chronic inflammatory conditions affecting multiple organs. The present study evaluates the in-vitro anti-inflammatory potential of the aqueous leaf extract of Capparis brevis pina DC (ALECB) using protein denaturation and membrane stabilization assays. The phytochemical screening of ALECB confirmed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, glycosides, and saponins, which are known for their pharmacological properties. The albumin denaturation assay demonstrated that ALECB exhibited dose-dependent inhibition of protein denaturation, with an IC₅₀ of 93.877 µg/ml compared to 35.519 µ g/ml for Diclofenac. Similarly, in the HRBC membrane stabilization assay, ALECB showed an IC₅₀ of 86.67 µg/ml, while Aspirin exhibited an IC₅₀ of 37.81 µ g/ml. These findings suggest that ALECB possesses significant anti-inflammatory activity, although it is less potent than standard drugs. The observed effects can be attributed to the phytochemicals present in the extract, particularly flavonoids and phenolic compounds. The study highlights the potential of Capparis brevis pina DC as a natural anti-inflammatory agent, warranting further in-vivo investigations and bioactive compound isolation to explore its therapeutic applications.

Abstract:
High intake of plant foods is associated with lower risk of chronic diseases as suggested by epidemiological evidence. This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory potential of polyphenol rich fraction of Ipomoea batatas leaf extract and the compounds possibly responsible for the activity using LCMS. The anti-inflammatory studies were carried out in vitro by protein denaturation technique. The result shows significant different (p&lt;0.05) percentage inhibition of denaturation 90.59% at 1000 μg/ml of the extract compared to the standard drug (declofenac) 95.12% at 1000 μg/ml. The LCMS profiling of the extract revealed the presence of many metabolites (polyphenols) such as chrogenic acid, myricetin, furocoumarinic acid, aromadendrin, naringenin, 4,5-dicaffeolquinic acid and abietinol among others. The presence of these metabolites could be the reason for the anti-inflammatory effect of the extract observed. This implies that the plant can be exploited for its medicinal, therapeutic properties and possibly used to reduce the risk of many chronic diseases.

Abstract:
A thermostable D-xylose–glucose isomerase was isolated from the thermophilic strain Streptomyces thermovulgaris 127, var. 7-86, as a result of mutagenic treatment by γ-irradiation of the parent strain, by precipitation and sequential chromatographies on DEAE–Sephadex A50, TSK-gel, FPLC-Mono Q/HR, and Superose 12™ columns. The N-terminal amino acid sequence and amino acid analysis shows 73–92% homology with xylose–glucose isomerases from other sources. The native molecular mass, determined by gel filtration on a Superose 12™ column, is 180 kDa, and 44.6 and 45 kDa were calculated, based on amino acid analysis and 10% SDS-PAGE, respectively. Both, the activity and stability of the enzyme were investigated toward pH, temperature, and denaturation with guanidine hydrochloride. The enzyme activity showed a clear pH optimum between pH 7.2 and 9.0 with D-glucose and 7.4 and 8.3 with D-xylose as substrates, respectively. The enzyme is active up to 60–85°C at pH 7.0, using D-glucose, and up to 50–60°C at pH 7.6, using D-xylose as substrates. The activation energy (Ea = 46 kJ·mol–1) and the critical temperature (Tc = 60°C) were determined by fluorescence spectroscopy. Tc is in close coincidence with the melting temperature of denaturation (Tm = 59°C), determined by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The free energy of stabilization in water after denaturation with Gdn.HCl was calculated to be 12 kJ·mol–1. The specific activity (km values) for D-xylose-glucose isomerase at 70°C toward different substrates, D-xylose, D-glucose, and D-ribose, were determined to be 4.4, 55.5, and 13.3 mM, recpectively.Key words: D-xylose-glucose isomerase, protein sequencing, protein stability, protein denaturation.
