Evaluation of anti-inflammatory activity and anti-oxidant potential of portulaca quadrifida linn.
Abstract
Portulaca quadrifidaL. (PQ) having the phytochemicals like Alkaloids, flavonoids, Saponins, tannins, glycosides, carbohydrates, aminoacids, triterpenoids. The present study was performed to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities by using acetic acid induced vascular permeability model in mice & acetic acid induced colitis in rats significantly. PQ (100 mg/kg, p.o.) presented a significant anti-inflammatory activity towards acetic acid induced vascular permeability model in mice in comparison to Diclofenac sodium(10 mg/kg, s.c.) and acetic acid induced colitis in rats in comparison to 5-ASA. Our findings suggest that, PQ contains potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds which will aid us to conduct bioactivity guided isolation & characterization of leading compounds in due course.
