For many drugs, the half-life is the time it takes for half of the drug’s active substance to be eliminated from the bloodstream.
In medicine, knowing a drug’s half-life helps in designing treatment regimens that reduce adverse effects.

1542- Api,    Bioavailability of Apigenin from Apiin-Rich Parsley in Humans
- Human, NA, NA
*BioAv?, 2 g blanched parsley/kilogram body weight was consumed. maximum apigenin plasma concentration of 127 +/- 81 nmol/l was reached after 7.2 +/- 1.3 h maximum plasma concentrations were comparably low (0.34 umol/l)
*Half-Life?, peak at 7.2 hours

5383- ART/DHA,    Artesunate is a drug used to treat severe malaria.
- Review, Var, NA
Half-Life?, The elimination half life of artesunate is 0.3h with a range of 0.1-1.8h.8 The elimination half life of DHA is 1.3h with a range of 0.9-2.9h.8 Half life after intramuscular administration is 48 min in children and 41 min in adults

2941- PL,    Selective killing of cancer cells by a small molecule targeting the stress response to ROS
- in-vivo, BC, MDA-MB-231 - in-vitro, OS, U2OS - in-vitro, BC, MDA-MB-453
ROS↑, . Piperlongumine increases the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptotic cell death
Apoptosis↑,
selectivity↑, but it has little effect on either rapidly or slowly dividing primary normal cells
*ROS∅, In contrast, PL did not cause an increase in ROS levels in normal cells
GSH↓, lead to a decrease in GSH and an increase in GSSG levels in cancer cells
GSSG↑,
H2O2↑, we found that hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide, but not superoxide anion, were among the ROS species induced by PL in cancer cells
NO↑,
Half-Life?, 0.8 hrs

3321- SIL,    Silymarin (Milk thistle)
- Review, AD, NA
*neuroP↝, Although silymarin is effective in several Alzheimer’s animal models, most of the proposed mechanisms of action are similar to approved drugs or drugs that have been ineffective for Alzheimer’s.
*Dose↝, Large variability in doses used, but commonly 200-600mg/day
*Half-Life?, Half-life: Six hours
*BioAv↝, (oral absorption is ~23-47%)
*cognitive↑, silibinin and silymarin improved cognition in an Alzheimer’s mouse model
*Aβ↓, Silymarin was also reported to slightly reduce Aβ plaques, Aβ oligomers, and insoluble (but not soluble) Aβ, reduce microglial inflammation, and improve cognition in an Alzheimer’s mouse model
*Inflam↓,
*OS↑, silymarin increased mean lifespan of worms by 10.1% and 24.8% at 25μM and 50μM, respectively, but had no effect at 100μM
*memory↑, (50mg/kg/day intramuscular injection) improved memory performance
