Clerodendrum Viscosum

Clerodendrum viscosum (CV) has been used traditionally to treat medical problems like asthma, ulcer, inflammation, pyrexia, diabetes, malaria, skin diseases, snakebite and tumor by folk practitioners. The present study evaluated the analgesic, antiinflammatory, neuropharmacological and cytotoxic properties C. viscosum (leaves) in rodents. Swiss albino mice of either sex weighing 25-30 gm and SD rats (150-180 mg) were divided into control (DW), standard (model specific) as well as test groups (n=6). Analgesic potential was evaluated using acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin induced pawlicking test. Anti-inflammatory properties were evaluated by xylene and croton oil induced ear edema test. Glucose tolerance was evaluated by OGTT in normal rats. Pentobarbital induced sleeping time test was applied to assess neuropharmacological activity. Also, Brine shrimp lethality bioassay method was employed for cytotoxicity evaluation. The alcoholic extracts showed significant antinociceptive activity in acetic acid test (p<0.01) and formalin test (p<0.05) at the dose of 1000mg/kg bw. The crude extract reduced inflammation significantly (p<0.01) in both xylene and croton oil induced ear edema test. At the dose of 1000mg/kg it increased glucose tolerance significantly (p<0.05) in normal rats. CV extract significantly (p<0.01) increased sleeping time indicating CNS depressant effect. The extract exhibited a potent cytotoxicity against brine shrimp (LC50=316.23μg/ml). C. viscosum leaves showed analgesic, antiinflammatory, hypoglycemic and CNS depressant effect against experimentally induced model mice. It also possessed cytotoxic properties and further studies are required to evaluate these effects and the potential of the plant.

The author would like to study the effects of ethanol Graptophyllum pictum (L.) Griff extract (EGPE) as anti-inflammation on wistar with experimental hemorrhoids. RCT post-test only design were done on 28 wistar, that were allocated into four groups. The 2nd , 3rd and 4th group were induced with 6% croton oil into anus for three days, the 1st group was not induced. On the 4th day, 1st and 2nd group were given physiologic saline, 3rd and 4th group was given EGPE 100 mg and 300 mg/ kg bw respectively. At the 9th day, before termination, blood was aspirated from retro-ocular region for examination of serum IL-6, COX-2 and TNF-alpha using ELISA method, and SGOT, SGPT, urea and creatinine level. Anus was removed and prepared for microscopic examination to count the leucocyte under 400 HPF. Induction of 6% croton oil was significantly increased TNF-alpha, IL-6, COX-2 and leucocyte count. Treatment with EGPE dose 100 mg and 300 mg/ kg bw significantly reduce TNF-alpha, IL-6, COX-2 and leucocyte count, dose 100 mg was even better than 300 mg except for leucocyte count. SGOT, SGPT, blood urea and creatinine were not significantly different among groups. In conclusion, the EGPE 100 mg and 300 mg have anti-inflammatory effects in hemorrhoids wistar, which can suppress IL-6, COX-2, TNF-alpha, and total leucocytes. The EGPE dose 100 mg is better than dose 300 mg. EGPE save for kidney and liver.

Mouse Ear Edema

Nowadays, there is a growing interest in the development of medicinal plant-based therapies to diminish the ravages of the inflammatory process related to diseases and tissue damage. Most therapeutic effects of these traditional medicinal plants are owed to their phenolic and antioxidant properties. C. aconitifolius is a traditional medicinal plant in Mexico. Previous characterization reports have stated its high nutritional and antioxidant components. The present study aimed to better understand the biological activity of C. aconitifolius in inflammation response. We developed an ethyl acetate extract of this plant to evaluate its anti-inflammatory capacity and its flavonoid content. The topical anti-inflammatory effect of the ethyl acetate extract of C. aconitifolius was determined by the croton oil-induced mouse ear edema test, while flavonoid detection and concentration were determined by thin layer chromatography and the aluminum chloride colorimetric assay, respectively. Topical application of the extract showed significant inhibition of the induced-ear edema (23.52 and 49.41% for 25 and 50 mg/kg dose, respectively). The extract also exhibited the presence of flavonoids. The finding of the anti-inflammatory activity exerted by the C. aconitifolius and the identification of its active principles may suggest and support its use for inflammation treatment.
