Leaf methanol extract of C. orbiculata L. was investigated for antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities using acetic acid writhing and hot-plate tests and carrageenan-induced oedema test in mice and rats, respectively. C. orbiculata (100-400 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly inhibited acetic
Inflammation is a complex mechanism employed by the body to promote healing and restoration to normal function in the event of injury. Eleven plant species were selected in this study based on their use in traditional medicine against inflammation in South Total saponin content, total phenolics content, total flavonoids content, condensed tannin content in hull, cotyledon and whole grain of both adzuki bean and mung bean were determined by colorimetric methods. Vitexin and isovitexin contents in mung bean were determined by HPLC. Antioxidant effects
Multiple mechanisms have been proposed for the neuroprotective effects of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4). We aimed to examine the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and MgSO4 on the placental expression of nuclear factor κ light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), interleukin (IL) 6,
Recent identification of a second, inducible form of prostaglandin H synthase (PGHS-2) led to the hypothesis that constitutively expressed PGHS (PGHS-1) is involved in the homeostatic role of eicosanoids, whereas the inducible enzyme is responsible for their inflammatory actions. We report here the
