Unani Concepts of Brain Pathology: Humoral Mechanisms in Māddī Neurological Disorders
Abstract: Background The Unani System of Medicine (USM) considers the brain (Dimāgh) as the principal organ of Quwā Nafsāniyya (psychic faculties), responsible for sensation, cognition, memory, movement, and emotional regulation. According to Unani principles, health is maintained through equilibrium of Mizāj (temperament) and Akhlāṭ (humours), whereas disease develops when this balance is disturbed. Among neurological disorders, Sū’-i-Mizāj Māddī Dimāgh refers to pathological conditions of the brain associated with the accumulation of …

Abysmal Oddities of Brain in Neurological and Psychiatric Disorders Based on Sū’-i-Mizāj Māddῑ (Abnormal Substantial Temperament): Through The Lens of Greco-Arabic Medicine
Abstract: The mesmerizing history of neurological and psychiatric disorders relates to the history of humanity. The Unani philosophers apprehend neurological and psychiatric disorders superbly. They gave a conceptual understanding of the Sū’-i-Mizāj dimag and diagnosed neurological and psychiatric disorders wonderfully. Contrariwise, the Babylonians associated epilepsy, anxiety, depression, mania, and other psychiatric disorders with deities and demons earlier. To understand, analyse, and explain a comprehensive patho-physiology of neurological and psychiatric disorders, it …

Molecular Docking studies of Benzodiazepine Derivatives With GABA(B) Receptor
Abstract: Benzodiazepines (BZDs) are pharmacologically significant compounds that act by binding to GABA A neurotransmitter receptors, subsequently augmenting GABA-induced chloride ion flux, consequently inducing neuronal hyperpolarization. Benzodiazepines are commonly used in the treatment of sleep disorders, anxiety, muscle spasms, seizure disorders, and some forms of depression. The primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA, functions on two types of receptors: the ligand-gated GABA A/C receptors and the G protein-coupled GABA B receptors. These neurotransmitters …
