Benoxaprofen (Opren - Dista) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with a novel mode of action. Other NSAIDs inhibit the formation of prostaglandins which are important in acute inflammation. Benoxaprofen has little such activity, but modifies leucocyte function, especially the migration of monocytes which perpetuate the inflammatory process.1 The significance of this mode of action is unclear. In the usual animal tests of anti-inflammatory activity benoxaprofen is as effective as phenylbutazone.2

Traditionally, Bryophyllum pinnatum is used in the management of arthritis and inflammatory diseases. However, B. pinnatum has not been analysed previously for anti-inflammatory activity. Hence, this study is designed to determine the anti-inflammatory effects of various fractions of B. pinnatum leaf extract using rat model of formalin-induced paw edema. Treatment with various fractions showed marked decrease in formalin-induced paw volume and edema in rats. The results of BPAAF treatment were comparable to standard drug, diclofenac. These results indicate that B. pinnatum could be developed as ant-inflammatory drug after further studies.

A series of O- and N-prenyl secondary metabolites of insect, fungal, and plant origin have been evaluated for their topical anti-inflammatory activity using the Croton oil ear test in mice as a model of acute inflammation. Some of the tested compounds revealed an effect (ID50 = 0.31 +0.56 μmol/cm2) comparable with that of the reference non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin (ID50 = 0.23 μmol/cm2).
