The aqueous extract of bark of Ficus religiosa was prepared and investigated for its anti-inflammatory effect and for its protective effect on mast cells against degranulation. A significant anti-inflammatory effect was observed in both acute and chronic models of inflammation. The extract also protected mast cells from degranulation induced by various degranulatiors. The observed anti-inflammatory and mast cell protective effect may be responsible for the beneficial effect of Ficus religiosa in kumkum dermatitis and other inflammatory conditions.
制备了菩提树树皮的水提取物，并研究了其抗炎作用以及对肥大细胞脱颗粒的保护作用。在急性和慢性炎症模型中均观察到显著的抗炎作用。该提取物还能保护肥大细胞免受各种脱颗粒剂诱导的脱颗粒作用。观察到的抗炎和肥大细胞保护作用可能是菩提树在朱砂性皮炎和其他炎症性疾病中发挥有益作用的原因。
