populus tremula/inflammation

Anti-inflammatory properties of Populus tremula are mainly deduced from its components, the well investigated salicylates. Solidago extracts have spasmolytic, antihypertensive and diuretic effects. Fraxinus excelsior itself has hardly been investigated, but its coumarin components proved to have a

Aqueous/alcoholic extracts of Populus tremula, Solidago virgaurea and Fraxinus excelsior (components of Phytodolor N) were tested individually and in 3 different combinations for anti-inflammatory activity using carrageenan induced edema and/or adjuvant induced arthritis of the rat paw. The tested

All processes of oxygen activation include very reactive intermediates. Therefore, aerobic cells must cope with--and to some extent also adapt to--oxidative stress provoked for example by infections or intoxications, where these reactive intermediates accumulate. All inflammatory processes include

Populus tremula L. (Poplar), Fraxinus excelsior L. (ash) and Solidago virgaurea L. (goldenrod) have been used for medicinal purposes through centuries, to treat pain, fever and inflammation, but their mechanisms of action are still not fully understood. The present

Inflammation is a common finding in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The phytotherapeutic agent eviprostat is a popular treatment for BPH in Japan and Germany. This agent consists of five components; four are extracted from Chimaphila umbellata, Populus tremula, Pulsatilla pratensis and Equisetum

BACKGROUND Flos populi is an important traditional Chinese medicine prepared from the male inflorescence of Populus tomentosa Carr. or Populus canadensis Moench (Salicaceae family). Flos populi is mainly used for the treatment of various inflammatory diseases and anti diarrhea in East Asian

OBJECTIVE To evaluate antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective and vasorelaxant activities of Populus nigra flower buds ethanolic extract. METHODS Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of the extract were assessed using respectively the ABTS test and the animal model of

Populus deltoides, known as eastern cottonwood, has been commonly used as a medicinal plant. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism underlying the anti-inflammatory activity of P. deltoides leaf extract (PLE). PLE effectively inhibited the expression of inducible nitric oxide

Antiinflammatory, Analgesic and Antipyretic Effects of Various Plant Extracts and a Combination Thereof in Animal Models. The three main components comprising the efficacy of non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs could be demonstrated for STW 1 in different animal models. The phytotherapeutic

BACKGROUND Propolis is used widely in a number of cultures as a folk medicine and is gaining wider recognition for its potential therapeutic use, due to its wide range of biological properties and pharmacological activities, especially its anti-inflammatory effects. Despite an increasing number of

An in vitro bioassay-guide revealed that the methanol (MeOH) extract of the stem bark of Populus davidiana showed considerable inhibitory activity against cyclooxygenase (COX-1, COX-2). Continuous phytochemical study of the MeOH extract of this plant led to the isolation of ten flavonoids;

UNASSIGNED : In previous in vitro bioassay studies, Populus balsamifera L. (Salicaceae), a medicinal plant ethnobotanically identified from the traditional pharmacopoeia of the Cree of Eeyou Istchee (Eastern James Bay area of Canada), exhibited a strong anti-obesity potential by potently inhibiting

Aqueous-ethanolic extracts from Fraxinus excelsior, Populus tremula and Solidago virgaurea inhibit biochemical model reactions representing inflammatory situations to various extents. These model reactions include xanthine oxidase, diaphorase in the presence of the autoxidizable quinone juglone,

Aqueous-ethanolic extracts of Fraxinus excelsior, Populus, tremula and Solidago virgaurea in a combination of 1: 3: 1 (v/v/v) are the components of the plant drug Phytodolor N (abbreviated as PD), which exhibits antipyretic, analgesic and antirheumatic activity. Similar to a broad variety of
