摘要

The methanol extract of Barleria Cristata leaves (BCM) was evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity using in vivo and in vitro methods. In the in vivo inflammation tests, BCM significantly inhibited edema produced by histamine and serotonin in rats, also reduces significantly acetic acid-induced vascular permeability in mice dose dependently. In the in vitro tests, the probable supporting mode by which BCM mediates its effects on inflammatory conditions was studied on red blood cells (RBC’s) exposed to hypotonic solution and thermally induced protein denaturation. BCM exhibited significant membrane-stabilizing property. Thermal induced protein denaturation was significantly inhibited by the extract. The effect was compared with the activity of indomethacin and cyproheptadine as reference standard against different types of inflammation. Results of the study revealed that BCM possesses significant anti-inflammatory activity.

Introduction Medicinal plants are believed to be an important source of new chemical substances with potential therapeutic effects. The research into plants with alleged folkloric use as anti-inflammatory agents should therefore be viewed as a fruitful and logical research strategy in the search for new anti-inflammatory drugs[1]. Barleria Cristata Linn (family Acanthaceae) is a shrub found widely in subtropical Himalaya, Sikkim, Khasi Hills, central and southern India at height of 1,350 m. The chemical constituents of the plant have been identified as flavonoid type phenolic compounds especially apigenin, quercetin, quercetin-3-O-β-D-glucoside, naringenin and apigenin glucuronide[2]. Different parts of Barleria Cristata have been used traditionally for the treatment of variety of diseases including anaemia, toothache, cough and as a hypoglycemic agent. Roots and leaves were used to reduce swellings in inflammation [2]. However, there is no systematic scientific report published indicating utility of this plant material in the treatment of inflammation. Thus the presence of therapeutically active flavonoids as major constituents was the basis of selection and evaluation methanol extract of Barleria Cristata leaves for their anti-inflammatory activity. Materials And Methods Plant materialFresh leaves of the plant Barleria Cristata Linn were collected from Mumbai region, India. The plant material was taxonomically identified by Dr. Ganesh Iyer, Prof. in Botany, Ramnarain Ruia college, Mumbai, India. A voucher specimen (No. 9-1/08) has been preserved in our laboratory for future reference. The leaves were dried under shade and then powdered with a mechanical grinder and stored in airtight container. The dried powder material of the leaves was defatted with petroleum ether (60-80) and subsequently extracted with methanol in a soxhlet apparatus. The solvent was completely removed under reduced pressure and methanol extract of Barleria Cristata leaves (BCM) was obtained (yield 12.4%). Solution of BCM was prepared freshly in distilled water and used for the studies. Phytochemical screeningThe BCM extract was screened for the presence of various phytochemical constituents i.e. steroids, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, glycosides, etc by employing standard screening tests [3].Chemicals and drugsHistamine, Serotonin, Egg albumin and Evan’s blue were obtained from Himedia Lab [(Mumbai) India], Indomethacin [Recon, (Bangalore) India], Cyproheptadine [Fleming Laboratories Limited, (Hydrabad), India] and all other chemicals used were of analytical grade.AnimalsWistar albino rats of either sex weighing 180–200 g and Swiss albino mice of either sex weighing 18–22 g were used for animal studies. The animals were grouped in polyacrylic cages and maintained under standard laboratory conditions (temperature 25 ± 2 °C) and relative humidity (50±5%) with dark and light cycle (14/10 h). They were allowed free acc
