From Humours to Metabolism: An Integrative Review of Obesity Management in Unani Medicine
Abstract: Unani Medicine, a traditional complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) system, adopts a holistic, temperament-based approach to disease prevention and management. In classical Unani literature, obesity is described as Simān-e-Mufriṭ, a pathological condition arising from humoral imbalance, particularly the predominance of phlegm (Balgham) and derangement of temperament (Su’-e-Mizāj), most commonly of a cold and moist nature. This condition is attributed to a sedentary lifestyle, weakened digestive and metabolic faculties, and excessive …

Stingless Honeybee’s Rare Sugar and PCSK 9 - LDLR Interaction, A New Hope for Hormone Dependent Breast Cancer Patients – An In-silico Study
Abstract: Hypercholesterolemia is a lipid disorder characterized by elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), commonly known as "bad" cholesterol. This condition is a significant risk factor in the development and progression of hormone-dependent breast cancer, as well as in the emergence of resistance to hormonal therapy. One of the key regulators of cholesterol metabolism is the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK9) protein, which facilitates the degradation of the LDL receptor (LDLR) …
