The synthesis of novel N-tosyl tetraaza cyclophanes and N-tosyl diaza cyclophane incorporating m-terphenyl as spacer units is described. Anti-arthritic activity was studied by inhibition of the protein denaturation method (bovine serum albumin). All the N-tosyl aza cyclophanes exhibit excellent anti-arthritic activity. Anti-inflammatory activity of the synthesized cyclophanes was investigated using the human red blood cells (HRBC) membrane stabilization method and some of the N-tosyl aza cyclophanes exhibited good anti-inflammatory activity.

Aims: The present investigation was aimed at exploring the phytoconstituents using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy and to evaluate antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of the leaf extracts. Materials and Methods: The extracts were obtained sequentially with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and water using soxhlet apparatus. The anti-inflammatory property of the identified compounds using GC- MS spectroscopy was evaluated in silico. The antioxidant activity was performed by DPPH and H2O2 method whereas anti-inflammatory study was carried out by HRBC membrane stabilization method. Terpenoids were found to be major constituents in petroleum ether extract while, phenols and flavonoids were predominantly found in ethyl acetate extract. Results and Discussion: The GC-MS analysis of the extract revealed six major molecules including Squalene, 19β, 28- epoxyleanan-3-ol and 2-tu-Butyl-5-chloromethyl-3-methyl-4-oxoimidazolidine-1-carboxylic acid. The ethyl acetate extract showed a significant antioxidant activity (P<0.01) in both DPPH method (70.87 %) and H2O2 method (73.58%) at 200 µg mL-1 . Increased membrane stabilization of petroleum ether extract was observed in the in vitro anti-inflammatory activity study. A strong relationship between the terpenoid content and anti-inflammatory activity was obtained from the correlation (0.971) and docking study. Conclusion: These results justify T. involucrata to be a rich source of terpenoids with potent antiinflammatory property.

ABSTRACTObjective: Inflammation is body reactions in response to tissue injury and infection. In 2011, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) was thehighest demand drug in Indonesia. However, long-term treatment using NSAID can cause several side effects to cardiovascular and digestive system.This research aimed to investigate anti-inflammatory properties of binahong leaves (Anredera cordifolia) and pegagan herbs (Centella asiatica).Methods: Ethyl alcohol extract of A. cordifolia leaves and C. asiatica herbs was evaluated for its anti-inflammatory properties using human redblood cell (RBC) – membrane stabilization assay. The extract concentrations used in this study was 100, 200, 400, and 800-ppm, and apigenin andasiaticoside concentration were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 100 ppm. Diclofenac natrium (DN) was used as a standard drug.Results: The results showed that A. cordifolia extract (ACE) alone, C. asiatica extract (CAE) alone, and the combination of ACE and CAE could inhibit thehemolysis of RBC in hypotonic solution. The optimum concentration for ACE alone was 100 ppm; for CAE alone was 400 ppm; and for the combinationof ACE and CAE was 50 ppm and 50 ppm, respectively. Apigenin and asiaticoside in concentration of 1-10 ppm showed more than 97% inhibition ofhemolysis. DN as a standard drug showed optimum inhibition at concentration of 400 ppm.Conclusion: The ethyl alcohol extract of A. cordifolia leaves and C. asiatica herbs showed anti-inflammatory activity, both as a single treatment or ascombinations, and apigenin and asiaticoside were responsible for anti-inflammatory activity in C. asiatica.Keywords: Anti-inflammation, Human red blood cell – membrane stabilization, Anredera cordifolia, Centella asiatica.

The stew of Mirabilis jalapa L. flower has been used traditionally as an anti-inflammatory. Phytochemical screening of Mirabilis jalapa L. flower showed flavonoid content which is known to have anti-inflammatory activity. This study aims to determine the anti-inflammatory activity of Mirabilis jalapa L. flower infusion using the red blood cell membrane stabilization method by inducing hypotonicity and heat. The test group consisted of Mirabilis jalapa L. flower infusion with a concentration of 2.5%; 5%; and 10% w / v, positive control (diclofenac sodium 0.01% w / v and aspirin 0.01% w / v), and negative control (distilled water). The anti-inflammatory activity of Mirabilis jalapa L. flower infusion was determined by the percentage of membrane stabilization and inhibition of red blood cell hemolysis. Data from the test results were statistically analyzed both parametric and nonparametric with SPSS. Mirabilis jalapa L. flower infusion contains flavonoids, tannins and terpenoids. The test results showed that the 10% concentration of Mirabilis jalapa L. flower infusion had the largest percentage of red blood cell hemolysis protection on hypotonicity induction, that is 99.50% (p>0.05) and the largest percentage of hemolysis inhibition on heat induction, that is 50.27% ( p≤0.05). From these results, it can be concluded that the Mirabilis jalapa L. flower infusion has potential as an anti-inflammatory by stabilizing the red blood cell membrane.
