The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of wound healing activity of the whole plant of Momordica charantia Linn. in rats. The effect of aqueous ethanolic extract of Momordica charantia Linn. (Family; Cucurbetaceae) was evaluated on resutured incision, granuloma pouch and excision wound models in rats. The wound healing activity was measured by the rate of wound contraction, skin breaking strength, weight of the granulation tissue, and collagen content. The concentrated ethyl alcohol extract was subject to fractionation by using petroleum ether (40-60o V/V), solvent ether, ethyl acetate, butanol, butanone, ethanol and methanol in succession. All the fractions were screened for wound healing property. The results of pharmacological activity led to the conclusion that the petroleum ether fraction exhibited more significant wound healing promotion property followed by solvent ether and butanone, from all the parameters studied. Ethyl acetate, ethanol and methanol fractions were least effective.

Sorbaria tomentosa,, commonly known as “Berre” is native to Himalaya and Hindukush range in Pakistan. Qualitative phytochemical screening as well as quantitative antioxidant potential of its ethanolic extract was evaluated. Antioxidant potential of the extract was determined using standard methods like DPPH, FRAP, total phenolics, total flavonoids, ABTS radical cation scavenging assay and β-carotene linoleic acid emulsion system. Cu(II) and Zn(II) chelates of ,,Sorbaria tomentosa,, were also prepared and their antioxidant potential was compared with the extract as well as with synthetic antioxidants (BHT and BHA). It was observed that ,,Sorbaria tomentosa,, is a good source of natural antioxidant that worked efficiently compared to respective chelates. Keeping in view less efficiency of chelated extracts, stabilization studies of sunflower oil were conducted with ethanolic extract (250, 500, 1000 ppm) of ,,Sorbaria tomentosa,,. Various parameters like PV, FFA and IV were estimated to evaluate stabilization of oil. ,,Sorbaria tomentosa,, extract (1000 ppm) showed almost same role during stabilization like BHA at ambient condition during a storage period of 45 days. Keywords: Sorbaria tomentosa, phytochemicals, antioxidant potential, chelation, stabilization

Periodontitis is a periodontal disease involving the gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone due to an inflammatory process. Virulence factors of periodontopathogens and inflammatory responses in periodontitis can stimulate nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activity. Charantoside c and Momordicosides g in bitter gourd prevent NF-κB activation stimulated by TNF-α in HepG2 cells. This study aims to determine the effect of bitter gourd fruit (Momordica charantia) ethanolic extract as an anti-inflammatory substance on the level of inflammatory infiltrates and the number of cells that experience NF-κB activation in the periodontitis model. Eighty male Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups. The mandibular incisors were ligated for 14 days to induce periodontitis. Each group was given Momordica charantia extract of 500 mg/kg BW, 250 mg/kg BW, and 100 mg/kg BW; ibuprofen 100 mg/kg BW; and aquades orally using oral gavage on the day 14. Rat necropsy was carried out on day 1, 3, 5, and 7 after giving the substances. Taking out the lower jaw was done to make tissue preparations followed by staining them with hematoxylin eosin (HE). Immunohistochemicalanalysis was performed to observe cells that were positive for NF-κB activation. The results showed a decrease in the density of inflammatory infiltrates in all groups, except for those given aquades. The number of inflammatory cells ofneutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes that experienced NF-κB activation showed the most effective decrease in the group of Momordica charantia 500 mg/kg BW, on the 7th day. The conclusion of this study is that ethanolic extractof Momordica charantia has an anti-inflammatory effect and prevents the activation of NF-kB in rat gingival induced by periodontitis. The highest effect was found at a dose of 500 mg/kg BW on day 7 after giving of extracts.
