Anti-plasmodial activity of Ailanthus excelsa.

The anti-plasmodial activity of Ailanthus excelsa stem bark was investigated. The methanolic extract inhibited in vitro growth of chloroquine-sensitive (D10) and resistant strains (W2) of Plasmodium falciparum (IC50 4.6 and 2.8 microg/ml, respectively). The effect was retained in the chloroform fraction (3.1 and 2.1 microg/ml, respectively). The anti-plasmodial activity could be ascribed to the...

Acute - Toxicity, Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Diarrhoeal Activity of Ailanthus excelsa in Mice and Rats

Ailanthus excelsa (Stem bark) are used in folk medicine for a treatment of inflammation, arthritis, expectorant, stimulant and asthma. Acute toxicity study of A. excelsa stem bark was performed on mice (Swiss) and albino rats (Wistar strain),given single doses 1,10, 50, 100 ,1000 and 2000mg/kg,po. showed normal behavior and no mortality up to 14 days except 500,1000 and 2000mg/kg dose 20%, 60.0...

In vitro antioxidant and antiproliferative activities of flavonoids from Ailanthus excelsa (Roxb.) (Simaroubaceae) leaves.

The present study aimed to investigate the chemical composition, and the antioxidant and antiproliferative activities of Ailanthus excelsa, a plant used in Egyptian traditional medicine. Chromatographic separation of a methanol extract of A. excelsa leaves yielded four flavones, namely apigenin (1), apigenin 7-O-beta-glucoside (2), luteolin (3), and luteolin 7-O-beta-glucoside (4), and seven fl...

Anti-allergic and Anticataleptic Activity of Aqueous Extract of Leaves of Ailanthus Excelsa Roxb

The anti-allergic of an aqueous extract of the leaves of Ailanthus excelsa Roxb.(AELAq) was evaluated by using milk induced leucocytosis and eosinophilia in mice, passive paw anaphylaxis in rats models while the anticataleptic properties was evaluated by Clonidine induced catalepsy in mice mode. The extract significantly (*p<0.05, **p< 0.01) decreased the leucocytosis and eosinophilia along wit...
