Objective: The present study was designed to investigate the antiarthritic activity of methanolic stem extract of Tecoma stans in wistar albino rats using in vitro albumin denaturation method and in vivo models like complete freunds adjuvant (CFA) induced arthritis and egg albumin induced arthritic models. Acute toxicity studies were carried out and the extract was found to be safe upto 2000 mg...

calcium mobilization is known to be an important factor in the activation of cells involved in inflammation,so,calcium-channel antagonists are be expected ti exhibit antiinflammatory activity.in the present study,we evaluateted the antiinflammatory effects of two calcium channel blockers,verapamil and nifedipine on adjuvant induced chronic in flammation in rat paw.sixty adult male rats were div...

1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) is a phenylpropanoid present in Alpinia galanga (L) Willd syn. Languas galanga. The objective of this study was to isolate 1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) from acetone extract of Alpinia galanga (AEAG) and evaluate anti-arthritic activity of 1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) and acetone extract of Alpinia galanga (AEAG) on complete Freund’s Adjuvant-induced arth...

to evaluate the effect of probiotic (primalac) and salmonella enteritidis-specific igy on prevention of salmonella enteritidis infection in broiler chickens, four 33 week-old single comb white leghorn hens were hyperimmunized with salmonella enteritidis (se) whole cell antigens obtained by ultrasonication and administrated at a protein concentration of 500 ?g/ml after centrifugation. primary im...

Experimental autoimmune vitiligo was induced by the intradermal injection of the purified mushroom tyrosinase emulsified in Complete Freunds Adjuvant (CFA) in female C57BL/6 mice. The onset of vitiligo was characterized by hair hypopigmentation and total melanocyte depletion in the basal layer of the epidermis. Oral administration of semipurified mushroom tyrosinase prevented experimental autoi...
