Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra. Extract exhibits antiinflammatory activity in the rat.
Journal of Ethnopharmacology 2002 May
The aim of the present study was to explore the probable antiinflammatory effect of Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra. in a rat model of carrageenan induced inflammation. Male Wistar rats were treated intraperitoneally with 0.4% dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) (as control group) and H. triquetrifolium extract (25, 50, 60 mg/kg), 30 min before 0.1 ml 1% carrageenan injection. Paw volume was measured before and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 h after the injection of carrageenan. The results are expressed as the mean+/-s.e. mean and the statistical significance of differences between groups was analyzed by One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The intraplantar injection of carrageenan caused a time-dependent paw edema in the rat although saline injection caused no swelling. Intraperitoneal administration of H. triquetrifolium extract (25, 50, 60 mg/kg) inhibited paw swelling dose-dependently at 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 h after carrageenan injection (P<0.05). We can conclude that H. triquetrifolium extract may exert an antiinflammatory effect in rats.
