in an effort to evaluate the hypoglycemic activity of t. polium, the crude extract was administered orally to a group of streptozotocin induced diabetic rats for 6 consecutive weeks. significant decrease in blood glucose by 64%, total bilirubin by 35%, glutamate oxaloacetate transferase by 48% and glutamate pyruvate transferase by 30% was observed compared to untreated diabetic rats. however, t...

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...

Since ancient times, natural products from various plants have been used for the treatment of different diseases. Alkanna and Teucrium species considered medicinal are popularly around world. So, investigating pharmaceutical properties these has subject interest many researchers. In this work, total phenolic flavonoid content, antioxydant, antimicrobial activity in vitro enzyme inhibition tinct...

some plant extracts showed the ability to retard the diffusion of glucose across the dialysis tube. the present study was designed to investigate the effect of aqueous and ethanolic extracts of teucrium polium (t. polium) on glucose movement across the dialysis tube. the t. polium powder was dissolved in ethanol and distilled water. then glucose was added to make a final concentration of 0.2 – ...

This study was designed to examine the chemical composition of essential oil and the in vitro antimicrobial activities of essential oil and methanol extract of Teucrium montanum. The inhibitory effects of essential oil and methanol extracts of T. montanum were tested against 13 bacterial and three fungal species by using disc-diffusion method. GC/MS analyses revealed that essential oil contains...

teucrium polium can reduce serum glucose. there are few reports in the literature related to this subject and the resolution of this mechanism requires further experiments. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of teucrium polium aerial parts extracts on oral glucose tolerance tests and pancreas histology in streptozocin-induced diabetic rats. in order to prepare the aqueous ...
