fruits of olea europaea l. have been used for centuries in folk medicine to treat many inflammatory diseases. in order to evaluate the anti-nociceptive activities of the methanolic and aqueous extracts of defatted fruits of o. europaea, formalin test was used and for evaluation of anti-inflammatory effects of the extract, the volume of paw edema was measured. the results revealed that both extr...

the aim of the present study was to prepare and evaluate an osmotically controlled mucoadhesive cup-core (ocmc) containing aceclofenac. a special technique was used while preparing an ocmc. stability of ocmc was determined in natural human saliva, and it was found that both ph and device are stable in human saliva. ocmc was evaluated by weight uniformity, thickness, hardness, friability, swelli...

the ethanolic extract of wedelia chinensis (eewc) belonging to the family of asteraceae was evaluated by hot plate and acetic acid induced writhing methods to assess its analgesic activity. the extract was also evaluated for its by using on carrageenan, mediators such as histamine and serotonin induced paw oedema, and cotton pellet induced granuloma tests for its effect on acute and chronic pha...

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the competitive inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX), the enzyme which mediates the bioconversion of arachidonic acid to inflammatory prostaglandins (PGs). Their use is associated with the side effects such as gastrointestinal and renal toxicity. The therapeutic anti-inflammatory action of NSAIDs is produced by the inhibition of COX-2, while the ...

anti-inflammatory activity has been reported for a few of antidepressant drugs and in contrary sertraline has potentiated inflammation. in this study, anti-inflammatory effect of a collection of antidepressant drugs belonging to different classes was evaluated to help a rational selection of these drugs in disease conditions such as association of depression or anxiety with inflammatory disease...

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. the anti-anaphylactic activity of compound 1 (10, 25 and 50 mg/kg) was studied by using models such as passive cutaneous anaphylaxis, passive paw anaphylaxis and ...

diclofenac sodium has been used for its anti-inflammatory actions for about 28 years, but since all the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) suffer from the lethal gastro intestinal (gi) toxicities, diclofenac sodium is not an exception. the free –cooh group is thought to be responsible for the gi toxicity associated with all traditional nsaids. in the present research, the main motto...

a series of novel indeno[1, 2-b]quinoxalin-11-ylidenamines 2-9 have been synthesized via condensation of indane[1, 2-b]quinoxalin-11-one (1) with various primary aromatic amines in presence of acoh for 3 h. compound 1 was synthesized by condensation of indane-1,2,3-trione with benzene-1,2-diamine in presence of acoh. the synthesized compounds were characterized by ir, 1h-nmr, mass spectra and e...
