Teucrium polium, a medicinal plant that belongs to the family Labiatae is widely used in folk medicine as antidiabetic, antibactrial and anti-inflammatory agent. In this study, we evaluated the effect of Teucrium polium on the mouse polymorphonuclear neutrophils. The animals were divided into five groups including four test and one control group, which orally received 50 and 100 mg/kg of aqueou...

Teucrium polium (Labiatae) is a plant that widely grows in Iran. Some of species of Teucrium are used for a considerable range of actions in traditional medicine and T. polium has frequently been used as anticonvulsant. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of T. polium ethanolic aqueous extracts and related fractions on seizures induced by pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) and maximal e...

Teucrium polium is used for treatment of visceral pain in Iranian folkloric medicine. In this studyantinociceptive mechanisms of T. polium hydroethanolic extract were examined by acetic acid-inducedwrithing test as a model of visceral pain in male NMRI mice. To reveal the antinociceptive mechanisms ofthe extract, we examined the effects of opioidergic, serotonergic, adrenergic and histaminergic...

Тhe aim of the present study was identification of flavone aglycones and determination of the content of each and the content of total flavonoids as well as investigation of the eventual seasonal variations of flavonoids in Teucrium polium L. (Lamiaceae). The plant samples were collected at six different locations in Republic of Macedonia, during summer in 1999, 2000 and 2003. For determination...

ABSTRACT Natural sources are microbiological species and medicinal plants, which could be potential new for development of drugs against different diseases. Coccidiosis affects many animals leads to great economic losses. Drug-resistant strains Eimeria have emerged because overuse misuse drugs. In vitro, using papillata oocyst earthworm (Eisenia fetida), we evaluated the anticoccidial anthelmin...

Background and Objective: Teucrium polium (TP) has shown hypoglycemic effect in type 1 diabetes induced by single high dose of the cytotoxic agent streptozotocin (STZ) in rats. This study was conducted to evaluate whether its aqueous extract could have such an effect in multiple low-dose STZ-induced model of type 1 diabetes in rats. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into cont...

Teucrium polium is an analgesic, antidiabetic and antilipeidemic herbal medicament. The aim of this survey was to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract T. polium on liver enzymes linked to liver dysfunction, serum lipids and glucose, in diabetic male rats. Methods: A total of 20 Sprague-Dawly male rats became diabetic by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (60 mg/kg). the animals were ...
