Anticonvulsant Activity of the Aqueous Leaf Extract Of Croton Zambesicus (Euphorbiaceae) In Mice and Rats
To determine the anticonvulsant activity of the leaf extract of Croton zambesicus in mice and rats, and in order to verify the traditional use of the plant in the treatment of epilepsy. The pentyleneterazole (PTZ) and the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) models were used for assessing the anticonvulsant effects of the aqueous leaf extract in mice and rats. In the PTZ test, the leaf extract ...
متن کاملNeuropharmacological activity of the aqueous leaf extract of Croton zambesicus (euphorbiaceae) in some laboratory animals
To determine the neuropharmacological activity of the leaf extract of Croton zambesicus in mice and chicks. The effect of aqueous leaf extract of Croton zambesicus on thiopental sodium – induced sleeping time in mice, on gross locomotor activity (GLA) in 2-day old chicks and effect of extract on apomorphine - induced stereotyped behavior in chicks were evaluated. The a...
متن کاملIn Vitro Lipid Peroxidation Inhibitory and Antimicrobial Activity of Phyllanthus Niruri (Euphorbiaceae) Extract
The present work was designed to evaluate the in vitro lipid peroxidation inhibitory and antimicrobial activities of the methanol extract of Phyllanthus niruri (MEPN) (Family: Euphorbiaceae) . Lipid peroxidation was measured by the optical density of the prepared solutions (10-320 µg/ml) and then the percent inhibition was calculated. Ascorbate/FeSO 4 -induced p...
متن کاملAntiproliferative Activity of Flavonoids from Croton sphaerogynus Baill. (Euphorbiaceae)
Croton sphaerogynus is a shrub from the Atlantic Rain Forest in southeastern Brazil. A lyophilized crude EtOH extract from leaves of C. sphaerogynus, obtained by maceration at room temperature (seven days), was suspended in methanol and partitioned with hexane. The purified MeOH phase was fractionated over Sephadex LH-20 yielding five fractions (F1-F5) containing flavonoids, as characterized by...
متن کاملRepression of MAL tumour suppressor activity by promoter methylation during cervical carcinogenesis.
We recently identified MAL (T-lymphocyte maturation associated protein) as the most down-regulated gene in cervical oncogenesis. Here, we examined the mechanism underlying MAL silencing, its functional role in cervical carcinogenesis, and the relevance of detecting MAL alterations for risk assessment of hrHPV-positive women. MAL mRNA expression and promoter methylation were analysed in primary ...
