Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory condition that destroys the tooth-supporting structures due to host's immune response microbial biofilms. Traditional periodontal treatments, such as scaling and root planing, pharmacological interventions, surgical procedures, have significant limitations, including difficulty accessing deep pockets, biofilm recolonization, development of antibiotic resistance. In light these challenges, natural bioactive compounds derived from plants, herbs, other sources offer promising alternative their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, tissue-regenerative properties. This review focuses on molecular mechanisms through which compounds, curcumin, resveratrol, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), baicalin, carvacrol, berberine, essential oils, Gum Arabic, exert therapeutic effects in disease. Bioactive inhibit critical pathways like NF-κB, JAK/STAT, MAPK while activating protective Nrf2/ARE, reducing cytokine production oxidative stress. They also activity matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), preventing tissue degradation promoting healing. addition, demonstrated potential disrupt bacterial biofilms by interfering with quorum sensing, targeting cell membranes, enhancing efficacy.Bioactive modulate system shifting balance pro-inflammatory anti-inflammatory responses efferocytosis, helps resolve inflammation supports regeneration. However, despite challenges related poor bioavailability, stability oral cavity, absence large-scale clinical trials need be addressed. Future strategies should prioritize advanced delivery systems nanoparticles hydrogels enhance bioavailability sustain release, alongside long-term studies assess human populations. Furthermore, combining traditional treatments could provide synergistic benefits managing aims explore disease, emphasizing action offering insights into integration conventional therapies for more comprehensive approach health.

Neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, are among the most significant health concerns worldwide, characterized by neuronal dysfunction, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, protein misfolding. Epigallocatechin gallate, a green tea polyphenol, has been reported to possess multifaceted neuroprotective properties. It reduces stress through free radical scavenging, activation of antioxidant enzymes, stabilization mitochondrial function. also inhibits neuroinflammation modulation key signaling pathways. suppresses amyloid-beta aggregation in Alzheimer’s alpha-synuclein fibrillation thus attenuating toxic accumulation. Its activity induction autophagy promotion synaptic plasticity supports survival However, low bioavailability metabolic instability hinder its translation into clinic. Strategies nanoparticle encapsulation, structural modifications, combination therapies being explored overcome these challenges. Future research could establish epigallocatechin gallate as viable candidate for managing neurodegenerative disorders.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious neurological disease with an extremely high disability rate. Most patients show loss of motor and sensory functions below the level injury. Current treatment protocols are based on early surgical decompression pharmacotherapy. However, efficacy these interventions suboptimal. Due to its complex pathophysiological mechanisms difficulty central nervous system (CNS) regeneration, exploring effective therapeutic remains daunting. Flavonoids secondary metabolites unique plants that have attracted attention in recent years for their potential now commonly used inflammation, tumors, other diseases. For SCI, related studies still exploring; some compounds, such as quercetin, fisetin, hesperetin, shown good anti-inflammatory anti-apoptotic properties, which help restore function injured spinal cord. flavonoids exhibit certain disadvantages, including poor solubility, low bioavailability, inability achieve long-term controlled release. Some proposed drug delivery strategies-including nanoparticles, hydrogels, collagen scaffolds-to enhance efficacy. In this paper, we summarize strategies SCI by searching relevant literature propose future research directions provide new ideas multimodal SCI.
