The analysis of acute toxicity and anti-inflammation activity of the willow extract is performed expediency of its inclusion in the preparations with anti-arthrosis activity. The dose dependent study of anti-inflammatory activity of willow extract was carried out of the model of acute inflammatory swelling which was provoked by introduction of 0.1 ml of 10% kaolin in the hind leg of the rat. Comparative anti-inflammatory activity of glucosamine sulphate and hydrogel in experimental osteoarthrosis was studied by modeling of inflammation. Most marked anti-inflammatory activity was shown to have the willow extract in the doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg. Inclusion of the willow extract in granules increased anti-proliferative activity of glucosamine in experimental osteoarthrosis. Combined use of the willow extract with glucosamine more effective than monotherapy by glucosamine, influenced suppressively on proliferative stage of inflammation in experimental osteoarthosis.

Inflammation is the response of living tissues to injury. The process affects physiological changes such as erythema, edema, asthma and fever. Non-steroid Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) have been developed since they could inhibit inflammation process because of its ability to inhibit biosynthesis of prostaglandin, one of inflammation mediators, through inhibition of cyclooxigenase (COX) enzymes. Molecules, which have been reported having anti-inflammatory activity, for example, are curcumin, some curcumin derivatives and curcumin analogues. One of curcumin analogues that has been  developed is pentagamavunon-0 (PGV-0) whose IUPAC name is 2,5-bis(4'-hidroxy-3'-methoxy-benzylidene)cyclo-pentanone. But PGV-0, which is like curcumin, practically insoluble in water, so it causes problems in the development. The aim of this research is to synthesize a derivative of PGV-0, a natrium salt of PGV-0 (natrium pentagamavunonate-0/Na-pentagamavunonate-0), which is hoped to have a better anti-inflammatory activity and solubility in water than PGV-0. PGV-0 was synthesized by reacting vanillin and cyclopentanone catalized by acid. Na-pentagamavunonate-0 was synthesized with PGV-0 as a starting material using an appropriate method. This research was able to synthesize new compound that was estimated as a natrium salt of PGV-0 (natrium pentagamavunonate-0/Na-pentagamavunonate-0).   Keywords: Curcumin, PGV-0, Na-pentagamavunonate-0, anti-inflammation

This study deals with the isolation of the active constituent(s) from a methanolic extract ofPistacia integerrimaJ. L. Stewart barks and it was also oriented to evaluate thein vivoandin silicoanti-inflammatory activity. By NMR and crystallography techniques, we have isolated a triterpenoid identified as daturaolone (compound1). This compound showedin vivoa significant and dose dependent (1–30 mg/kg) anti-inflammatory activity on carrageenan-induced mouse paw oedema (ED50= 10.1 mg/kg) and on acetic acid-induced writhing responses in mice (ED50= 13.8 mg/kg). In thein vivoexperiments, the effect of tested compound was also evaluated in presence of the reference drug diclofenac (1–30 mg/kg). Moreover,in silicoanalysis of receptor ligand complex shows that compound1interacts with cyclooxygenases (COXs) binding sites displaying an interesting interaction with COX-1. These findings suggest that compound1isolated fromP.integerrimapossessesin vivoanti-inflammatory and antinociceptive potentials, which are supportedin silicoby an interaction with COXs receptors.

This study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of the total saponins extracted from fermented Polygala japonica Houtt (FPH) compared with that of unfermented Polygala japonica Houtt (UFPH). The total saponins extracted from FPH and UFPH were evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity in xylene-induced ear swelling and acetic acid-induced vascular permeability models in mice, analgesic activity in acetic acid-induced writhing and hot plate models in mice. The total saponins extracted from FPH had the significant anti-inflammatory (p<0.001) and analgesic (p<0.01) activities with the doses of 6 g/kg b.w. in mice. The results of this experimental study thus strongly support the potential significant use of the total saponins extracted from FPH for pain and inflammatory.

OBJECTIVE. The study substantiated the possibility of application of sodium hypochlorite for treatment of infected pancreatonecrosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS. The experimental study was conducted on 288 rats. Clinical research was carried out on 94 patients who were divided into two statistically homogenous groups. «Levomecol» ointment was used in the first group for sanation of omental bursae (lesser sac). The immobilized form of sodium hypochlorite was applied for the second group. RESULTS. Anti-inflammatory activity of immobilized form of sodium hypochlorite exceeded this activity in case of «Levomecol» application in 1,2-1,4 times. Anti-microbial activity was higher in 1,6-1,8 times at different terms of treatment of experimental animals. The proposed method of treatment of infected pancreatonecrosis allowed doctors to decrease the number of postoperative complications in patients on 11,2 % and lethality - on 9,2 %. CONCLUSIONS. It was stated that the application of immobilized forms of sodium hypochlorite for sanation of the omental bursae was pathogenically justified and efficient.

Anti-inflammatory activity study involves developing a model that mimics, or provokes the production or release of, the biochemical mediators of inflammation, and monitoring the response of these biochemicals to the test drugs. This report constitutes an updated review of the in vitro and in vivo study models for assessing anti-inflammatory activity in plant extracts and synthetic drugs. The materials, instrumentation, and methods involved, as well as the mechanism of anti-inflammatory activity tested in each model, are extensively described. The merits and limitations of each method have also been discussed. A comparative assessment of the in vivo animal models vis-à-vis, the in vitro enzyme models have been made to assist scientists and researchers in the choice of assay method in terms of sensitivity, reliability, duration of test, ethical, and cost considerations.

This study aimed at investigating the anti-inflammatory potential of essential oil from rhizome and leaf of Alpinia calcarata Rosc. (ACEO) with the focus of its topical anti-inflammatory activity along with its dominant compounds 1,8-cineole and α-terpineol using mouse ear edema model. ACEOs were analyzed by GC-MS. The anti-inflammatory activity was determined by studying the inhibition of overproduction of proinflammatory mediators—nitric oxide, reactive oxygen species, prostaglandins, cyclooxygenases, and cytokines induced by lipopolysaccharides in murine macrophages. Topical anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activity was studied by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induced skin inflammation and formalin-induced pain model in mice, respectively. Rhizome oil has 1,8-cineole (31.08%), α-terpineol (10.31%), and fenchyl acetate (10.73%) as major compounds whereas the ACEO from leaves has 1,8-cineole (38.45%), a-terpineol (11.62%), and camphor (10%). ACEOs reduced the production of inflammatory mediators in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner. Further, ACEO and its major compounds reduced ear thickness, weight, myeloperoxidase, and cytokines significantly (p<0.01) in mouse ear. Dose-dependent reduction in flinching and licking in both the phases of pain sensation concludes the topical analgesic effect. Our findings suggest the potency of topical use of ACEOs for inflammatory disease conditions.

<p><em>Syzygium cumini<strong> </strong></em>(L.) Skeels (Myrtaceae), commonly known as <em>Jam </em>in Bengali, <em>Jamun</em> in Hindi and <em>Black Plum</em> or <em>Black Berry</em> in English, is a large size evergreen tree indigenous to India and is cultivated for its fruits. In the present study, the methanol extract of leaves from <em>S. cumini </em>(MESC) was evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity in experimental acute (carrageenan, histamine and serotonin induced rat paw oedema) and chronic models (cotton pellet induced rat granuloma). In all models, the MESC (100 and 200 mg/kg body wt. p.o.) exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity (<em>p &lt; 0.001</em>) in a dose dependent manner. These findings revealed that the <em>S. cumini </em>leaf had remarkable acute and chronic anti-inflammatory actions in the tested rodent models.</p>
