Study Design: The study involves the distillation of essential oil from the leaf of P. alliacea, characterization of the chemical constituents of the essential oil and the evaluation of its antiinflammatory potential. Place and Duration of Study: Leaves of P. alliacea were collected at Ijede, Ikorodu, Lagos state, Nigeria, in June 2016. Male Wistar rats were obtained and accommodated at the animal facility of Biochemistry Department Lagos state University, Ojo, Nigeria. The experiment lasted till October 2016. Original Research Article Oluwa et al.; BJPR, 15(1): 1-8, 2017; Article no.BJPR.31331 2 Methodology: Essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation of air-dried and pulverized leaves of P. alliacea. The distilled colourless oil was analysed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The anti-inflammatory activity was determined on fresh egg albumins over 4 h by measurement of rat paw edema according to established procedure. Results: Eleven compounds representing 99.1% of the oil content were identified in the essential oil of P. alliacea. The main constituents were phytol (56.1%), citronellol (16.0%) and (Z, Z)-αfarnesol (14.6%). In the egg albumin-induced edema, essential oils of P. alliacea induced time dependent in paw edema. The anti-inflammatory activity was non-significant (P= .05) from the 1st h to the 3rd h after egg albumin injection at 1 mL of 2% dose level while the maximum inhibition (P < .001) was observed after 4 h. At this hour, the inhibition was more pronounced than Diclofenac sodium injection. Conclusion: The chemical constituents of P. alliacea essential oil were found to differ from previous studies. The potent anti-inflammatory activity of essential oils of P. alliacea may provide further information on the biological uses of P. alliacea.","PeriodicalId":9320,"journal":{"name":"British journal of pharmaceutical research","volume":"51 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74718615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, whether C. citratus decoction can alleviate gasoline vapour (GV)-induced derangement of female reproductive hormones has not yet been documented. In this study, the capacity of C. citratus decoction was evaluated for its ability to alleviate GV-induced reproductive toxicity in female rats. Study Design: Seventy-two female Wistar albino rats weighing 185 ± 11.2 g were placed into six groups (n = 12 per group): the control (group 1, G1), GV alone (G2), GV plus C. citratus decoction (500 mg/kg; G3), (1000 mg/kg; G4), (1500 mg/kg; G5), and GV plus vitamin C (200 mg/kg; G6). Place and Duration of Study: Department of Physiology, University of Uyo, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. All groups were treated for 35 days. Methodology: Serum levels of the female reproductive hormones progesterone (P3) estradiol (E2), luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) as well as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA; an oxidative stress marker) in the animals were assessed using standard procedures. Results: The results showed that GV significantly (p < 0.05) decreased serum levels of P3, E2, LH, Original Research Article Ekpenyong; BJPR, 15(6): 1-8, 2017; Article no.BJPR.32895 2 FSH, SOD and increased serum MDA levels compared to the levels in the control animals. However, co-administration of C. citratus at different doses to the animals in G3, G4, and G5 and vitamin C to the animals in G6 dose-dependently significantly (p < 0.05) increased the levels of the GV-reduced reproductive hormones and antioxidant enzyme and decreased the GV-increased oxidative stress marker levels to levels similar to those in the control group. Conclusion: Thus, C. citratus decoction has an ameliorative effect on GV-induced reproductive dysfunction and oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":9320,"journal":{"name":"British journal of pharmaceutical research","volume":"61 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78584228","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
