This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of Garlip, a polyherbal drug composed of aqueous extract of six medicinal plants on blood glucose, plasma insulin, tissue lipid profile, and lipidperoxidation in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Aqueous extract of Garlip a, polyherbal drug was administered orally (200 mg/kg body weight) for 30 days. The different doses of Garlip on blood glucose and plasma insulin in diabetic rats were studied and the levels of lipid peroxides (TBARS and Hydroperoxide) and tissue lipids (cholesterol, triglyceride, phospholipids and free fatty acids) were also estimated in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. The effects were compared with tolbutamide. Treatment with Garlip and tolbutamide resulted in a significant reduction of blood glucose and increase in plasma insulin. Garlip also resulted in a significant decrease in tissue lipids and lipid peroxide formation. The effect produced by Garlip was comparable with that of tolbutamide. The decreased lipid peroxides and tissue lipids clearly showed the antihyperlipidemic and antiperoxidative effect of Garlip apart from its antidiabetic effect. 相似文献

Context: Shankhpushpi, a well-known drug in Ayurveda, is extensively used for different central nervous system (CNS) effects especially memory enhancement. Different plants are used under the name shankhpushpi in different regions of India, leading to an uncertainty regarding its true source. Plants commonly used under the name shankhpushpi are: Convolvulus pluricaulis Chois., Evolvulus alsinoides Linn., both from Convolvulaceae, and Clitoria ternatea Linn. (Leguminosae).Objective: To find out the true source of shankhpushpi by evaluating and comparing memory-enhancing activity of the three above mentioned plants. Anxiolytic, antidepressant and CNS-depressant activities of these three plants were also compared and evaluated.Materials and methods: The nootropic activity of the aqueous methanol extract of each plant was tested using elevated plus-maze (EPM) and step-down models. Anxiolytic, antidepressant and CNS-depressant studies were evaluated using EPM, Porsolt’s swim despair and actophotometer models, respectively.Results: C. pluricaulis extract (CPE) at a dose of 100?mg/kg, p.o. showed maximum nootropic and anxiolytic activity (p < 0.001). E. alsinoides extract (EAE) and C. ternatea extract (CTE) showed maximum memory-enhancing and anxiolytic activity (p < 0.001) at 200 and 100?mg/kg, respectively. Amongst the three plants, EAE and CTE showed significant (p < 0.05), while CPE did not exhibit any antidepressant activity. All the three plants showed CNS-depressant action at higher dose levels.Discussion and conclusions: The above results showed all the three plants possess nootropic, anxiolytic and CNS-depressant activity. The results of memory-enhancing activity suggest C. pluricaulis to be used as true source of shankhpushpi. 相似文献

The objectives of the current study were to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of dronedarone in the rat, and to examine the effect of hyperlipidemia on its pharmacokinetics. Single doses of dronedarone were administered to rats intravenously (4 mg/kg), orally (55 mg/kg) and intraperitoneally (65 mg/kg). To induce hyperlipidemia, some of the rats were administered intraperitoneal doses of poloxamer 407 before giving an oral dose of dronedarone. After intravenous doses of 4 mg/kg dronedarone, plasma clearance and volume of distribution at steady‐state were 25.1 ± 8.09 mL/min/kg and 10.8 ± 4.77 L/kg, respectively. After oral doses the maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax) and their median time of attainment (tmax) were 1.87 ± 1.65 mg/mL and 3.5 h, respectively. Intraperitoneal administration of 65 mg/kg dronedarone base yielded plasma Cmax and median tmax of 0.816 ± 0.611 mg/mL and 3 h, respectively. Protein binding was high in NL and HL plasma. Dronedarone is extensively distributed with high volume of distribution in the rat. The drug showed poor bioavailability (<20%) after oral and intraperitoneal administration. The increased plasma concentrations after oral dosing to hyperlipidemic rats appears to be attributable to a direct effect on metabolizing enzymes or transport proteins.

This study examined the antihyperlipidemic effect of the aqueous extract of Plumbago zeylanica Linn. (Plumbaginaceae) roots in diet-induced hyperlipidemic rats. The oral administration of the aqueous extract at the dose of 20, 40, and 80?mg kg?1 were found to ameliorate the hyperlipidemic condition as evidenced by a reduction of cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The standards fenofibrate (20?mg kg?1) and atorvastatin (8?mg kg?1) were also found to exhibit significant (p?<?0.05) cholesterol and triglyceride lowering effect. Further, the aqueous extract at all doses demonstrated a significant (p?<?0.05) increase in fecal cholesterol excretion indicating a reduction in intestinal cholesterol absorption. Additionally, the activity of lipogenic enzymes like HMGCoA reductase in the liver remained significantly (p?<?0.05) low on treatment of aqueous extract (80?mg kg?1), thus decreasing the cholesterogenesis. The aqueous extract (20, 40 and 80?mg kg?1) also significantly (p?<?0.05) reduced the total lipid content in the liver. Moreover, the aqueous extract demonstrated a potential antioxidant capacity in DPPH and TBARS in vitro antioxidant assay. Thus the results suggest a beneficial role of aqueous extract of Plumbago zeylanica roots in ameliorating the hyperlipidemic condition leading to atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Rationale
Clitoria ternatea, commonly known as Aparajita, is used as Medhya rasayana in Ayurveda. The role of C. ternatea in experimental models of cognitive impairment is yet to be explored.Objectives
The present study was designed to study the effect of aqueous and hydroalcoholic extracts of C. ternatea on biochemical and behavioral parameters related to cognitive impairment in in vitro and in vivo studies.Methods
In vitro free radical scavenging and enzyme-inhibitory (cholinesterase, glycogen synthase kinase-3-β, rho kinase, prolyl endopeptidase, catechol-O-methyl transferase, and lipoxygenase) activities of aqueous and hydroalcoholic extracts of C. ternatea plant were evaluated. Based on in vitro results, hydroalcoholic extract of C. ternatea (100, 300, and 500 mg/kg, p.o.) was selected for evaluation in intracerebroventricularly injected streptozotocin (STZ)-induced cognitive impairment in male Wistar rats. Behavioral assessment was performed at baseline and on the 14th, 21st, and 28th days after STZ injection using elevated plus maze, passive avoidance, Morris water maze, and photoactometer. Oxidative stress parameters (malondialdehyde, reduced glutathione, nitric oxide levels, and superoxide dismutase activity), cholinesterase activity, and rho kinase (ROCK II) expression were studied in cerebral cortex and hippocampus of rats' brain at the end of the study.Results
The hydroalcoholic extract possessed significantly more in vitro antioxidant and enzyme-inhibitory activities as compared to aqueous extract. The hydroalcoholic extract of C. ternatea prevented STZ-induced cognitive impairment dose dependently by reducing oxidative stress, cholinesterase activity, and ROCK II expression.Conclusion
In vitro and in vivo results suggest the potential of hydroalcoholic extract of C. ternatea for treatment of cognitive deficit in neurological disorders. 相似文献7.

Aim:
Clitoria ternatea Linn. (C. ternatea) is an Ayurvedic herb traditionally used as medicine to relieve inflammatory, rheumatism, ear diseases, fever, arthritis, eye ailments, sore throat and body ache. This study aims to evaluate and elucidate the possible mechanism underlying the antinociceptive action of methanolic extracts of C. ternatea leaf and root using several antinociception models.Materials and Methods:
The different antinociception models such as hot plate, tail-flick and formalin tests were used along with naloxone (a non-selective opioid antagonist) to establish the antinociceptive activity of both leaf and root extracts.Results:
Both C. ternatea leaf and root extracts markedly demonstrated antinociceptive action in experimental animals. Results of formalin test showed that the antinociceptive activity of the extracts may be mediated at both central and peripheral level. Moreover, the results of hot plate and tail-flick tests further implies that C. ternatea root extract mediates antinociceptive activity centrally at supraspinal and spinal levels whereas, the C. ternatea leaf extract''s antinociceptive activity is mediated centrally at supraspinal level only. It is believed that the opioid receptors are probably involved in antinociceptive activity of both C. ternatea root extract.Conclusions:
Our studies support the traditional use of C. ternatea leaf and root against pain. The extracts can also be utilised as a new source of central analgesics in treatment of pain.KEY WORDS: Anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, C. ternatea, opioid receptors 相似文献8.

Neonatal rat pups (7 days old) were intubated with either 50 mg/kg body weight or 100 mg/kg body weight of aqueous root extract of Clitoria ternatea (CTR) for 30 days. These rats were then subjected to open field, two compartment passive avoidance and spatial learning (T-Maze) tests (i) immediately after the treatment and (ii) 30 days after the treatment, along with age matched normal and saline control rats. Results showed no change in open field behaviour, but showed improved retention and spatial learning performance at both time points of behavioural tests, indicating the memory enhancing property of CTR which implicates a permanent change in the brain of CTR treated rats. 相似文献

AbstractContext: Despite several studies on the effects of Solidago chilensis Meyen (Asteraceae), the phytochemical and hypolipidemic properties remain underappreciated.Objective: This study evaluates the hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of hydroalcoholic extract (HE) and quercetrin from S. chilensis aerial parts in cholesterol-fed rats.Materials and methods: The HE was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography, followed by quercetrin isolation. Hypercholesterolemic rats (1% cholesterol and 0.5% cholic acid for 15?d) were treated with HE (150, 300, and 600?mg/kg p.o.; n?=?6), simvastatin (4?mg/kg p.o.; n?=?6), or quercetrin (10?mg/kg p.o.; n?=?6) once a day for 30?d. During this period, a high-cholesterol diet was maintained until the 30th day of treatment.Results: Rats treated with HE (150, 300, and 600?mg/kg) and quercetrin showed decreased serum levels of total cholesterol (?19.9, ?27.5, ?31.0, and ?39.4%), lipoprotein-cholesterol (?36.0, ?37.5, ?43.3, and ?59.4%), and triacylglycerides (?15.6, ?23.5, ?29.8, and ?27.2%) when compared with the control group similar to simvastatin. Moreover, treatment with HE and quercetrin decreased hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase activity (35.1% on average) and increased fecal cholesterol levels (38.2% on average).Discussion and conclusions: Our results suggest that hypolipidemic effects of HE are associated with it modulating the activity of HMG-CoA reductase and its interference in the reabsorption and/or excretion of intestinal lipids. Solidago chilensis and its main constituent, quercetrin, may thus be effective as cholesterol-lowering agents and in preventing atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Clitoria ternatea , commonly known as Shankpushpi, is widely used in the traditional Indian system of medicine as a brain tonic and is believed to promote memory and intelligence. We examined the effectiveness of alcoholic extracts of aerial and root parts of C. ternatea at 300 and 500 mg/kg doses orally in rats in attenuating electroshock-induced amnesia. Extracts at 300 mg/kg dose produced significant memory retention, and the root parts were found to be more effective. In order to delineate the possible mechanism through which C. ternatea elicits the anti-amnesic effects, we studied its influence on central cholinergic activity by estimating the acetylcholine content of the whole brain and acetylcholinesterase activity at different regions of the rat brain, viz., cerebral cortex, midbrain, medulla oblongata and cerebellum. Our results suggest that C. ternatea extracts increase rat brain acetylcholine content and acetyl cholinesterase a ctivity in a similar fashion to the standard cerebro protective drug Pyritinol. 相似文献

Objectives There is an inverse relationship between high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) and heart disease. HDL possesses not only both antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties, but also anti‐thrombotic and endothelial function‐promoting qualities. However, it is not only the serum concentration of HDL that is important, but also the ‘functional’ quality of the HDL. The objective was to determine the functional status of HDL in a well‐established mouse model of dyslipidaemia and atherosclerosis induced by the administration of a block copolymer (poloxamer 407; P‐407). Methods C57BL/6 mice were administered a single intraperitoneal dose of P‐407 (0.5 g/kg) and blood was collected at 24 h post‐dosing. HDL was isolated from controls (control HDL) and P‐407‐treated (P‐407 HDL) mice and used to test its anti‐inflammatory properties in vitro. Additionally, antioxidant enzymes associated with HDL, namely, platelet activating factor‐acetylhydrolase (PAF‐AH) and paraoxonase (PON), were evaluated for any potential reduction in their biological activity. Key findings A single injection of P‐407 in C57BL/6 mice resulted in a marked decrease in the levels of HDL‐cholesterol and phospholipids. HDL particle size significantly increased, primarily due to remodelling of HDL with triglyceride. It was demonstrated that (i) long‐chain saturated fatty acids were higher and the n‐3/n‐6 fatty acid ratio was significantly lower for P‐407 HDL compared with control HDL, and (ii) P‐407 HDL lost its capacity to inhibit tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α)‐induced vascular cell adhesion molecule‐1 (VCAM‐1) expression compared with control HDL. Additionally, P‐407 HDL was not able to neutralize lipopolysaccharide and inhibit subsequent TNF‐α production compared with control HDL. The biological activity of platelet‐activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF‐AH) and paraoxonase (PON) decreased in direct proportion to the circulating levels of both HDL‐cholesterol and apolipoprotein (apoA‐1). Conclusions Combination of previously reported findings in P‐407‐treated mice, such as (i) production of both oxidized LDL and malondialdehyde, and (ii) profound elevations in the soluble forms of intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1), VCAM‐1, and E‐selectin, with the present results, would strongly suggest that HDL in P‐407‐treated mice is rendered dysfunctional. Thus, these findings help to explain why P‐407‐treated mice begin to form aortic atherosclerotic lesions about one month after initiating P‐407 treatment. 相似文献
