Abstract:
Withania Somnifera (Ashwagandha) is an important medicinal plant that has been used in Ayurvedic and indigenous medicine. It is also known as Indian ginseng. It exerts antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immune modulatory activities. In the present study, we studied the free radical scavenging activity of Withania Somnifera root extract. The radical scavenging effect of the extract was studied by its effect on hydroxy radicals generated by Fe-ascorbate-H2O2 system. Our results showed that Withania Somnifera root extract (1-10,000 µg/ ml) resulted in a significant dose dependent increase in perc

Abstract:
The medicinal plant Withania somnifera, usually referred to as Ashwagandha, is a member of the Solanaceae family. The presence of Withanolides in the roots is responsible for a number of pharmacological effects in Ashwagandha. Withanolides have been demonstrated to be an effective neuronal, immune, anti-stress, and anti-cancer agent. However, Withanolides demonstrated limited permeability, lowering the bioavailability and efficacy of active compounds. The goal of the study was to ascertain the biological efficacy of Ashwagandha Composition, a blend of W. somnifera milk extract and water extrac

Abstract:
Over the past few years, the attention of people has changed from man-made (synthetic) to natural medicines. Withania somnifera’s phytochemical analysis has identified the presence of withanolides, which are pharmacologically active steroidal lactones. The two main withanolides that were isolated from Withania somnifera in India were withanolide D and withaferin A, both of which demonstrated cytotoxic and anticancer effects. The present investigation aimed to evolve a standard phytochemical profiling of Withania somnifera for the presence of withaferin A. The dried root sample was minced and g

The use of phytomedicinal remedies has increased during the last decades thanks to the relative low cost, low toxicity, and potential synergic effects of plant-derived medications. Withania somnifera (WS), commonly known as Indian Ginseng, is a medical plant belonging to the Indian Traditional Medical System, the Ayurveda. In preclinical studies, WS has shown an impressive variety of therapeutic effects in several pathological conditions. Among these effects, the anxiolytic and antiaddictive properties of this plant are the ones discussed in this work of thesis. Both effects have been attribu
