In vitro penetration of alpha arbutin niosome span 60 system in gel preparation [PDF]

Pharmaciana, 2017
Alpha arbutin is a hydrophilic compound which is difficult to pass trough the stratum corneum. One of the effort to increase the penetration of the drug through the stratum corneum is by making in niosome system.

Alpha-Arbutin Promotes Wound Healing by Lowering ROS and Upregulating Insulin/IGF-1 Pathway in Human Dermal Fibroblast

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Alpha-arbutin (4-hydroxyphenyl alpha-glucopyranoside) is a known inhibitor of tyrosinase in keratinocytes; however, its effect on other genes and pathways in other skin cells has not been thoroughly investigated.

Integrated phytochemical and bioactivity profiling of Xanthium strumarium fruits from Korea and China: Implications for origin‐specific quality specification

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Geographic origin influences the phytochemical composition and biological activities of medicinal plant resources. Xanthium strumarium L. (XS) fruit is widely used in East Asian traditional medicine. However, current pharmacopeial standards primarily recognize Chinese‐derived material, despite the availability and traditional use of

Targeting JAK2/STAT3, NLRP3/Caspase-1, and PK2/PKR2 Pathways with Arbutin Ameliorates Lead Acetate-Induced Testicular Injury in Rats

Pharmaceuticals
The reproductive system of males is adversely impacted by lead (Pb), a toxic heavy metal. The present study examined arbutin, a promising hydroquinone glycoside, for its potential ameliorative impact against Pb-induced testicular impairment in rats.

From Bonds to Barriers: Amphiphilic Molecules Enable Dual Interfacial and Electrolyte Regulation for Highly Stable Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The uncontrolled growth of zinc dendrites and severe parasitic side reactions critically impede the practical development of aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs), largely due to the high activity of water molecules in aqueous electrolytes.

Inclusion complex of water-soluble arbutin with β-cyclodextrin: Computer modeling and experimental studies

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications
A water-soluble arbutin was investigated for its potential to form an inclusion complex with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). Molecular modeling tests confirmed that arbutin can be accommodated within the cavity of β-CD primarily through Van der Waals forces ...

Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

VIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...
