erythrina/消炎（藥

The bark of Erythrina variegata Linn.(Ev) is used in Thai traditional medicine for the treatment of many diseases in Thailand and is an ingredient in the Mahanintangthong remedy (antipyretic) and Lomammapruek remedy (analgesic and anti-inflammatory). To study anti-inflammatory activities of

Six new flavanones (1-6), together with six known compounds were isolated from Erythrina livingstoniana. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of NMR data and HRMS(n) fragmentation pathway and by comparison with literature data. Compounds 5, 7 and 8 showed remarkable DPPH free radical

Erycristagallin, a pterocarpene isolated from Erythrina mildbraedii, was tested in vitro for its antioxidant properties on the stable 2,2-diphenyl-1-pycryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) free radical and on the arachidonic acid metabolism. In addition, erycristagallin was tested on different experimental models of

The prenylisoflavone warangalone has been isolated from the bark of Erythrina addisoniae. This compound, previously recognized as a powerful inhibitor of protein kinase A, showed marked effectiveness as an anti-inflammatory on the phospholipase A(2)-induced paw edema and on the

Erythrina crista-galli (Fabaceae) is used in Argentinean ethnopharmacology as anti-inflammatory medication, narcotic, desinfectant, and for the treatment of wounds. The common name of the tree is "ceibo" or coral tree. The dominating endophytes in E. crista-galli all belong to the genus Phomopsis as

Human African trypanosomiasis is prevalent in Sub-sahara African countries that lie between 14° North and 29° south of the equator. Sixty million people are at risk of infection. Trypanosoma brucei gambesience occurs in West and Central Africa while Trypanosoma brucei rhodesience occurs in East and

This review gives an account of the current knowledge on the morphology, phytochemistry, and pharmacological aspects of Erythrina variegata. E. variegata also called Erythrina indica is a thorny deciduous tree growing to 60 feet tall. A wide range of chemical compounds have been isolated, mainly

Two prenylated flavanones isolated from Erythrina sigmoidea Hua (sigmoidin A and sigmoidin B) were studied for their ability to inhibit the stable 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical and arachidonic acid metabolism. In addition, the compounds were studied in two experimental models of

Phomol (1), a novel antibiotic, was isolated from fermentations of a Phomopsis species in the course of a screening of endophytic fungi from the medicinal plant Erythrina crista-galli. For this Argentinean leguminosa antiinflammatory and neuroleptic activities have been described. The compound

The genus Erythrina comprises more than 100 species, widely distributed in tropical and subtropical areas. In Africa, 31 wild species and 14 cultivated species have been described. In sub-Saharan Africa, Erythrina species are used to treat frequent parasitic and microbial diseases, inflammation,

The in vivo antiplasmodial, analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of Erythrina senegalensis, an ornamental plant commonly used in Northern Nigeria for the treatment of fevers, was evaluated. Aqueous extracts of the stem bark of the plant was used for the study. The in vivo antiplasmodial

Inhibitors of peptidases isolated from leguminous seeds have been studied for their pharmacological properties. The present study focused on purification, biochemical characterization and anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant evaluation of a novel Kunitz trypsin inhibitor from Erythrina velutina seeds

Pharmacognostical investigations were carried out on the Erythrina indica leaves, followed by phytochemical investigation. On the methanolic extract of leaves, TLC was performed and indole alkaloids were identified with selected solvent system. The UV analysis was also performed on the components

Erythrina species are used in popular medicine as sedative, anxiolytic, anti-inflammatory, and antihypertensive. In this work, we investigated the chemical composition of extracts obtained from leaves of E. falcata and E. crista-galli. The hypotensive potential of E. falcata and the mechanism of
