Ethnopharmacological relevanceCasearia sylvestris Sw. is widely used in popular medicine to treat conditions associated with pain.
Aim of the studyThe present study investigated the influence of hydroalcoholic crude extract of Casearia sylvestris (HCE-CS) and contribution of pro-resolving mediators on mechanical hyperalgesia in a mouse model of chronic post-ischemia pain (CPIP).
Methods and resultsMale Swiss mice were subjected to ischemia of the right hind paw (3 h
ConclusionThese results reveal significant antihyperalgesic effect of HCE-CS on CPIP, mediated at least in part, by the pathway of resolution of inflammation centred on the axis modulated by ALX/FPR2.
