2. Introduction
The immunity system is a host guard system compressing numerous biological
structure and processes within an organism that protects in opposition to disease.
. Immunology is a science that examines the structure. The initial known
orientation to immunity was during the plague of Athens in 430 BC.
The basic role of the immune system is to distinguish self from non-self.
3. Material and methods
Ocimum sanctum
Ocimum species belonging to the family Lamiaceae are very important for
their therapentic potentials Ocimum sanctum Linn (Tulsi), ocimum canus
Sims (dulal Tulsi), ocimum basilicum Linn (Ban Tulsi), Ocimum
gratissimum Linn (Ram Tulsi), Ocimum micranthus willd and ocimum
americanum Linn are examples of known important species.
4. Pharmacological activity
Ocimum sanctum has vast number of therapeutic applications such as in
cardiopathy, haemopathy, leucoderma, asthma, bronchitis, catarrhal fever, vomiting,
gastropathy, genitourinary disorders, ring worm, verminosis and skin disease etc.
5. Process of software working
Search of chemical constituent
Confirmation of structure on chemspider
software
Structure draw on chemdraw software
Copy smile from chemdraw
Paste it on molinspiration
Predict bioavailability and bioactivity score
with the reference of lipinski rule of five
8. Potency of compounds according to obtained
data
Number of violations
In all the 13 compounds that are more important which have least number of
violations. Ethyl-2-methylbutyrate, eugenol, camphene,4-hydroxybenzoic acid,
gallic acid, carvacrol are the compounds which have zero number of violation
and tetradecanal, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid are the compounds have
one number of violations.
Molecular weight
All constituents of data passes the Lipinski rule of five for molecular weight except
triacontanolferulate, it crosses the value of 500 daltons.
9. Bioactivity score
GPCR ligand property
In the constituents of ocimum sanctum compounds luteolin-7-o-glucuronide,
apigenin-7-o-glucuronide, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and oleic acid shows good
ligand property on GPCR receptor. They also gives facilitation for the activity of
immunomodulation.
Ion channel modulation
In all taken constituent of table palmitic acid, stearic acid and oleic acid shows good
ion channel modulation property. They helps to regulate and promote ion channels
modulation activity.
Kinase inhibition
Luteolin-7-o-glucuronide is the only constituent of table data which shows kinase
inhibition property.
Nuclear receptor ligand property
In the constituents of ocimum sanctum compounds luteolin-7-o-glucuronide,
apigenin-7-o-glucuronide, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and oleic acid shows good
nuclear receptor ligand property. They also gives facilitation for the activity of
immunomodulation.
11. Conclusion
The Phytochemical screening and Pharmacognostical
evaluation parameters of ocimum sanctum were performed and it
showed the presence of many pharmacological active phyto-
constituents.
Effective formulations to be developed using indigenous
medicinal plants, With proper pharmacological experiments and
clinical trials.
The manufacture of Herbal products should be governed by
standards of safety and efficacy. So finally we concluded that
these phytochemical screening data and phytochemical
investigation of extract of ocimum sanctum in Ethanolic and
water useful for further studies of pharmacological parameters.
The different parts of Ocimum sanctum contain different types
of constituents in varying amounts.
