background: studies have emphasized the effect of trigonella foenum-graecum extract on the reduction of pain and inflammation. objective: in this research we investigated the mechanisms of trigonella foenum-graecum extract in reducing pain and inflammation induced by formalin. methods: male albino mice (weight 20 - 25 g) were evaluated through the injection of 2 microliters of formalin to the p...

objective(s): the aim of this study was to determine cytotoxic effect of nanoliposomal form of lyophilized aqueous extract of ecballium elaterium fruit on gastric cell line (ags) using cell viability tests. methods: an aqueous extract of the fruits of ecballium elaterium was prepared. nanoliposomal form was also prepared by thin-film hydration method and stability size was determined by sem. th...

Ten new labdane-type diterpenes were isolated from the fruit of Vitex rotundifolia L. (Verbenaceae), along with a known diterpene, vitexilactone. Their chemical structures were determined on the bases of spectroscopic data.

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 aqueous extract (1000 and 1...
