leptadenia reticulata was reported to be used for several medicinal purposes. the present study was undertaken to evaluate anti-inflammatory, analgesic and lipid peroxidation inhibition activities of l. reticulata. the anti-inflammatory assay was performed by λ-carrageenan and formalin induced paw edema test. pro inflammatory mediators (il2, il6, tnf-α) in serum of treated and control organism ...

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...

Tooth pulpal nerves include sympathetic and sensory nerves that originate from trigeminal ganglion .From the terminal of these sensory nerves neuropeptides are secreted that are neuromodulators and neurotransmitters. One of them is CGRP (Calcitonin gene-related protein) which has a vasodilatory effect on pulpal vessels. Near abscess and moderate injuries, this neuropeptide can lead to neural fi...

objective(s) in recent years highly selective cox-2inhibitors were withdrawn from the market because of an increased risk of cardiovascular complications. in this study we were looking for potent compounds with moderate selectivity for cox-2. so, four analogues of 4, 5-diaryl-2-(2-alkylthio-5-imidazolyl) imidazole derivatives were synthesized and their anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive act...

In the present study, anti-anaphylactic, anti-inflammatory and membrane stabilizing properties of a lupine alkaloid plumerianine (compound 1), isolated from the root bark of Plumeria acutifolia Poir were investigated in animal models.
