Natural products have played an exceptionally important role in health care and prevention of diseases for thousands of years and are one of the greatest sources of medicine. Mizoram is a home to a rich variety of flora and fauna however; very less systematic survey and documentation were carried out to date. The plant diversity of Mizoram is not adequately studied as compared to other states of north east India. Dillenia pentagyna Roxb., known as kaihzawl in Mizo and dog teak in English, is one of the endangered plants that is yet to be explore. The Mizo communities use the decoction of D. pentagyna bark to treat different stomach ailments, inflammation and diabetes. In this perspective, the methanolic extract of the bark of D. pentagyna was evaluated for its anti-inflammatory properties. The extract showed the presence of flavanoids, triterpenoids, steroids, phenolics, saponins, fixed oils and others exerting varied pharmacological activities. The methanolic extract of this plant was found to contain active constituents such as betulinic acid and β-sitosterol which are found to actively interact with the inflammatory mediators and suppressed the inflammation when evaluated for its in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. The present study suggests that the methanolic extract of D. pentagyna bark showed significant anti-inflammatory activity. This study also support the folkloric used of the plant in diseases related to inflammatory condition.

Cocos nucifera (L.) (Arecaceae) is commonly called the ‘‘coconut tree’’ and is the most naturally widespread fruit plant on Earth. Throughout history, humans have used medicinal plants therapeutically, and minerals, plants, and animals have traditionally been the main sources of drugs. The objective in the present study was to screen the phytochemical profile and pharmacological activities of methanolic extract of coconut leaves. To investigate pharmacological activities DPPH scavenging assay and HRBC membrane stabilization methods were performed for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential respectively. The phytochemical analysis of methanolic extract of coconut leaves showed that they contained significant presence of flavonoids, phenols , saponins, terpenoids and triterpenes. Alkaloids, glycosides and tannins are also moderately present. Quantitative evaluations show significant presence of phenols which was more than tannin content. The pharmacological studies revealed that the plant extracts may have significant antioxidant effect which is probably mediated by inhibition of DPPH free radical. The IC50 values by DPPH scavenging assay observed for standard and leaves were 97.29µg/ml and 486.78µg/ml respectively. Thus, this plant extracts have significant antioxidant effect. It also had moderate anti-inflammatory activity. The IC50 values for anti-inflammatory activity by standard and coconut leaves were 21.46 µg/ml and 831.21 µg/ml respectively. These findings suggest that Cocos nucifera (L.) may be a possible source for the development of a newanti-inflammatory drug.

The present research work aimed at evaluating the anti-inflammatory activity of Zingiber officinalis with Diclofenac sodium by HRBC membrane stabilization & Protein denaturation. The precluding of hypotonicity induced HRBC membrane lysis was taken as a measure of the anti-inflammatory activity. The percentage of membrane stabilization at different concentrations was performed for methanolic, hydro-methanolic ginger extract and diclofenac sodium. At a dose of 50µg/ml the maximum membrane stabilization 86.34% was found for Ginger extract(test) and at a dose of 500 mcg/ml membrane stabilization was found 91.16% for diclofenac sodium(standard) and the membrane stabilization for combination (ginger with diclofenac sodium) at a dose of 50µg/ml was recorded 86.43%, as the concentration increase(1000 mcg/ml) for combination(ginger with diclofenac sodium) the percentage protection was decreased. In vitro protein denaturation was performed by using egg albumin method. Maximum inhibition was observed in case of methanolic extract of ginger at concentration 1000mcg/ml and it was 78.83±5.17 and in hydro methanolic extract for Diclofenac sodium at concentration 1000mcg/ml and it was 63.37±2.78.Minimum inhibition observed in combination of methanolic extract of ginger and diclofenac sodium at concentration 1000mcg/ml and it was 25.27±1.76 and in combination of hydro-methanolic extract of ginger and Diclofenac sodium at concentration 1000mcg/ml and it was 28.23±3.14. The results of this study divulge that low dose combination of ginger and diclofenac sodium has higher anti-inflammatory activity than diclofenac sodium and ginger alone. With this initial study, research work could be extended further; therefore, the particular pharmacological action for the combination of ginger with diclofenac sodium could be discovered.

Lipospheres represent a novel type of fat-based encapsulation system produced for the topical drug delivery of bioactive compounds. The goal of this research work was to develop lipospheres, including ketoprofen applied for topical skin drug delivery. Ketoprofen lipospheres were formulated by melt emulsification method using stearic acid and Phospholipon® 90G. The lipospheres were analysed in terms of particle size and morphology, entrapment efficiency, Differential scanning calorimetry, In-vitro drug release, In-vivo (Anti-inflammatory activity). Outcomes of research revealed that particle size was found to be 9.66 µm and entrapment efficiency 86.21 ± 5.79 %. In-vivo, the study of ketoprofen loaded lipospheres formulation shows a higher plain formulation concentration in plasma (5.61 mg/mL). For dermis, ketoprofen retention was 27.02 ± 5.4 mg/mL for the lipospheres formulation, in contrast to that of the plain formulation group (10.05 ± 2.8 mg/mL). The anti-inflammatory effect of liposphere drug delivery systems was assessed by the xylene induced ear oedema technique and compared with marketed products. Finally, it seems that the liposphere drug delivery system possesses superior anti-inflammatory activity as compared to the marketed product gel consistencies. Liposphere may be capable of entrapping the medicament at very high levels and controlling its release over an extended period. Liposphere furnishes a proper size for topical delivery as well as is based on non-irritating and non-toxic lipids; it’s a better option for application on damaged or inflamed skin.
