Abstract


Nothapodytes foetida, is an important endangered medicinal plant with potential alkaloids. These phytoconstituents aid in the treatment of several human ailments. The current study was conducted to reveal the in vitro antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic activities of N. foetida plant extracts and green synthesized silver nanoparticles. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, H2O2 radical scavenging and reducing power assays; whereas anti-inflammatory activity was determined by the Human red blood cell (HRBC) membrane stabilization method and antidiabetic activity by α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition assays. Among all the samples tested, green synthesized silver nanoparticles exhibited potent antioxidant activity by DPPH radical scavenging (80.04 ± 0.12%), H2O2 radical scavenging (78.62 ± 0.41%) and reducing power assay (0.168 ± 0.39); potent anti-inflammatory activity (89.80 ± 0.67%) and antidiabetic activity by α-amylase (80.43 ± 0.74%) and α-glucosidase (79.19 ± 0.51%). These findings strengthen the medicinal properties of N. foetida and provide a basis for the development of new drugs.
