Abstract:

Inflammatory disorders alone or as a consequence of neurological disease affecting patients in life. Experimental models of inflammation are use to evaluate the production of inflammatory mediators at site of inflammation. Curcumin is one of the flavonoids possesses potent anti-inflammatory activity. However, because of low water solubility curcumin, its clinical application has been limited. The present study attempts to assessment the effects of curcumin and nano-phytosome of curcumin on improve of behavioral impairment and reduce inflammation cytokines in carrageenan-induced inflammation model. Animals have received oral administration of curcumin or nano-phytosom of curcumin at dose of 15 mg/kg for 7 days before injection of carrageenan. Acute inflammation was induced by injection of carrageenan (1%,) into the subplantar region of left paw in mice. Tail pinch test and hotplate test (for evaluated the threshold of neuroinflammation pain) were performed on ½ h before injection and  ½ h, 2 h, 24 h after injection of carrageenan. The results of behavioral testes showed enhance of  antinociceptive effects in the animals recieved curcumin(p≤0.01) and nano-phytosome of curcumin (p≤0.001) compaired to other groups. These results suggested that curcumin and its nano-phytosome improvement behavioral impairment and reduce inflammation cytokines following local injection of carrageenan.

Estrogen Increases Behavioral Responses to Carrageenan-induced Inflammation in Ovariectomized Mice

Aims: Estrogen decreases nociceptive responses in inflammatory models of hyperalgesia in rats. Because of the importance of murine models, the aim of this study was to determine if estrogen affects inflammation-mediated nociceptive behavior in mice as well. Methods: To this end, sixty 10-week old ovariectomized (OVX) C57BL mice were implanted with Silastic capsules containing 0% (cholesterol), ...

TPGS-Stabilized Curcumin Nanoparticles Exhibit Superior Effect on Carrageenan-Induced Inflammation in Wistar Rat

Curcumin, a hydrophobic polyphenol compound derived from the rhizome of the Curcuma genus, has a wide spectrum of biological and pharmacological applications. Previously, curcumin nanoparticles with different stabilizers had been produced successfully in order to enhance solubility and per oral absorption. In the present study, we tested the anti-inflammatory effect of d-α-Tocopheryl polyethyle...

Attenuating Effect of Curcumin on Diet-induced Hypercholesterolemia in Mice

Background and Aims: Atherosclerosis is currently a chronic disease in which cholesterols accumulate in large arteries. Many genes such as liver X receptor α (LXRα) are involved in the cholesterol homeostasis. Curcumin, the main active polyphenol component derived from Curcuma longa, contribute to anti-inflammation and antioxidant in the treatment of atherosclerosis. Thus, this stud...
