Exploring Phytochemicals from Ricinus Communis for Potential Therapeutic Applications in Rheumatoid Arthritis: An in-Silico Approach
Abstract: Aim: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term autoimmune condition characterized by the immune system mistakenly attacking the joints, leading to swelling, discomfort, and joint deformities. Current management strategies include anti-rheumatic drugs and biologics, which have limitations. This study aims to explore the therapeutic potential of Ricinus communis (castor bean plant) phytochemicals as plant-based therapies for autoimmune conditions, like RA. Methods: Phytochemicals from Ricinus communis were retrieved using the IMPPAT database, …

Natural Antibodies Against Enteromicrobes and their Toxins for the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Abstract: Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are thought to be brought on by the host immune system accidentally attacking and destroying its own tissue. “Molecular mimicry,” which asserts that antibodies against an infectious agent cross-react with a self-antigen possessing an identical or similar antigenic epitope, is a generally recognised theory to explain the pathogenic mechanism of ADs. This theory, however, was probably developed using false antibody assay data that was heavily impacted by …

Association of Vitamin D Binding Protein BP rs2282679 Gene Polymorphism and Serum Levels of Vitamin D in Patients with Vitiligo
Abstract: For vitamin D to have an impact, the vitamin D receptor (VDR) must be expressed and activated in the nucleus. The VDR has several known genetic variants. Biological impacts can be caused by changes in DNA sequences known as "polymorphisms" that are common in the population. Vitiligo is a disease that causes loss of skin color in patches, and it is a chronic (long-lasting) autoimmune disorder loss of color. The …
