Comprehensive biomedicine assessment of extracts: Phytochemical analysis and multifaceted pharmacological evaluation in animal models.

BACKGROUND

This study comprehensively analyzes the pharmacological effects of ethanolic extract of (EEAT) on various physiological parameters in mice.

OBJECTIVE

The research aimed to quantify flavonoid and phenol contents across different extraction methods, with a focus on the superior efficacy of the ethanolic extract.

METHODS

assays were conducted to assess the antioxidant activity of EEAT, revealing dose-dependent effects and significant inhibition percentages.

RESULTS

EEAT exhibited notable analgesic effects in the writhing response test, particularly at 200 mg/kg, indicating its potential as a natural analgesic. Additionally, its anti-inflammatory effects were complex and dose-dependent in a carrageenan-induced paw edema model. The extract also showed significant changes in body temperature regulation following Brewer's yeast-induced fever, revealing a distinct pattern of initial hypothermia followed by gradual re-elevation. Furthermore, EEAT demonstrated regulatory effects on gastrointestinal motility, with higher doses enhancing intestinal transit in charcoal meal tests.

CONCLUSION

This study highlights the pharmacological potential of EEAT as a natural therapeutic agent for antioxidant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and gastrointestinal regulation, warranting further investigation into its mechanisms of action and therapeutic applications.
