analgesic/zea mays

The analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of Zea mays husk extract (25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg of body weight) were investigated in rats. The hot plate and formalin-induced paw licking models were used to assess analgesic effects of the extract, whereas the carrageenan and cotton pellet models

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the musculoskeletal analgesic effect of etodolac administered PO every 12 or 24 hours in chronically lame horses by use of force plate analysis. METHODS 22 horses with navicular syndrome. METHODS Horses received etodolac (23 mg/kg, PO, q 12 h; n = 7), etodolac (23 mg/kg, PO, q

This study examined the short- and long-term neuroprotective and analgesic activity of honokiol (a naturally occurring lignan isolated from Magnolia) on developing brains in neonates exposed to inflammatory pain, known to cause neuronal cell death. Postnatal day 4 (P4) neonatal rat pups were

Certain dietary proteins and oils are capable of decreasing chronic neuropathic pain levels in rats after partial sciatic nerve ligation injury. We tested, for the first time, the role of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids in suppressing pain in partial sciatic nerve ligation-injured rats. Six

[carisoprodol structure: see text] Carisoprodol is a widely used skeletal muscle relaxant and analgesic and is available as a prescription drug. Comparative studies were conducted to determine the toxicity of carisoprodol administered in corn oil and in 0.5% methylcellulose by gavage. Carisoprodol

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of the essential omega-6 fatty acid Gammalinolenic acid (GLA) on fatigue associated with primary Sjögren's syndrome. METHODS Ninety patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (with or without signs of autoimmunity) entered a 6-month double blind placebo-controlled

The CYP3A subfamily is the most abundant of the human hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes. They mediate the biotransformation of many drugs, including a number of psychotropic, cardiac, analgesic, hormonal, immunosuppressant, antineoplastic, and antihistaminic agents. We studied diet/ethanol

beta-Myrcene (MYR, 7-methyl-3-methylene-1,6 octadiene) is a peripheral analgesic substance and one of the major constituents of lemongrass oil (Cymbopogon citratus, Stapf), a plant widely used in Brazilian folk medicine. In the present study the genotoxicity of MYR was evaluated in vivo using the

beta-Myrcene is a constituent of many essential oils that have been used extensively in cosmetic fragrances and as flavouring additives in the food industry. Recently, this monoterpene was reported to be an analgesic substance. Notwithstanding the widespread use of myrcene and essential oils

beta-Myrcene (MYR) and essential oils containing this monoterpene have been widely used as scenting agents in cosmetics, detergents, soaps, and as flavouring additives in food and beverages. Recently, MYR was reported to be an analgesic substance and the active principle of lemongrass tea. Despite

Tea prepared from lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is used for its supposed anxiolytic, hypnotic and analgesic properties in Brazilian folk medicine. beta-Myrcene, a major constituent of lemongrass, produces analgesia in rodents but there is some controversy about whether this action is central or
