Cuminum cyminum Linn. (Umbelliferae) is a plant, which has been used as a toothache remedy in folk medicine of Iran. In this study, the potential anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of the fruit essential oil of C. cyminum has been evaluated in chemical (formalin test) and thermal (tail-flick test) models of nociception and formalin model of acute inflammation in rats and mice. Th...

introduction: pro-inflammatory chemokines and cytokines   such as mcp-1 and il6 can activate microglial cells that has found in some neuro-inflammatory disorders. hypoxia activates cerebral endothelial cells to release these pro-inflammatory mediators. we aimed to investigate the anti-hypoxic effects of different doses of some gabaergic agents. materials and methods: we randomly divided 150 mic...

background: ghrelin is a peptide with attenuating effect on inflammatory pain. both anti- and pro-inflammatory mediators have a role in the nociception and development of pain and hyperalgesia. il-10 and tgf-β are anti-inflammatory cytokines and inhibit the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines related to peripheral and central inflammatory pain. in this study, the effects of i.p. injection ...

In China, escin has been widely used in the clinic as a potent anti-inflammatory drug. Previous studies have indicated that escin exerts its anti-inflammatory effect by enhancing the release of glucocorticoids (GCs) and prostaglandin-F2α (PGF2α), and this has been documented in the drug description. However, our previous studies demonstrated that escin did not increase the secretion of GCs, but...

introduction: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of oxytocin on the angiogenesis and inflammatory parameters in air pouch model of inflammation. methods: inflammation was induced by injection of carrageenan into pouches in male wistar rats. oxytocin (4.25, 8.5 and 17 μg) was administered intra pouch at the same time as the carrageenan and then for 2 consecutive days. after ...

Stimulation of peripheral nociceptors leads to releasing of some mediators such as substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and contributes to the edema formation by vasodilatation induction. On the other hand glucocorticoids have anti-inflammatory action, and they are elevated in the plasma during stress. This communication reports C-fibers inflammatory role and the effects ...

Methanolic extract of Solanum trilobatum Linn. (MEST) belonging to the family of Solanacea was evaluated by hot plate and acetic acid induced writhing methods to assess its analgesic activity. The extract was also evaluated for its anti-inflammatory activity by subjecting into carrageenan, and cotton pellet induced granuloma tests for its effect on acute and chronic phase inflammation models in...
