Sterols antiinflammatory activity

ANTITUMOR-PROMOTING AND ANTIINFLAMMATORY ACTIVITIES OF TRITERPENOIDS AND STEROLS FROM PLANTS AND FUNGI... [Pg.43]

According to Ramadan and cowoikers (36), aqueous extract of the baobab fruit pulp produces a marked anti-inflammation activity. The effect was comparable to that induced by standard phenylbutazone (15 mg/kg). This antiinflammatory effect may be due to the presence of sterols, saponins and triterpenes in the aqueous extract. The extract also shows a marked antipyretic activity (36). The antipyretic activity of the extract resembles that normally induced by standard dose of administered acetylsalicyhc acid (ASA) in hyperthermic rats. Leaves are applied locally for a variety of inflammatoiy conditions, insect bites and guinea worm sores (8). Anti-pyretic activity has been reported (36). [Pg.74]
