pluchea ovalis/edema

The anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and antioxidant effect of the methanol extract of Alhgi maurorum, Conyza dioscoridis and Convolvulus fatmensis was investigated. The antiinflammatory effect was studied using carageenan-induced rat paw edema, while the antipyretic effect was estimated using

Pluchea sagittalis, (Lam.) Cabr., a popular medicinal herb grown in South America, was studied for anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. The anti-edema action of P. sagittalis aqueous extract was assayed in different models of inflammation: 1) the mouse ear edema test induced by arachidonic

Extracts of different polarity from four Argentine medicinal plants used in folk medicine as antiinflammatory remedies were tested for bioactivity using carrageenan-induced paw edema in rats and TPA-induced ear edema in mice. A dichloromethane extract from Pluchea sagittalis showed good

Pluchea sagittalis whole plant dichloromethane extract showed inhibitory activity in several inflammatory models: rat hind paw-edema, mice ear edema, and air-pouch rat granuloma. The extract inhibited the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) in stimulated
