Evaluation of anti-nociceptive, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activities of Artemisia scoparia hydromethanolic extract

Quantification of santonin in eight species of Artemisia from Kazakhstan by means of HPLC-UV: Method development and validation

“…A . scoparia is well known in Pakistan to treat pain, inflammation and febrile conditions [17]. In Mongolia, A .…”

Effects of Artemisia dracunculus Aqueous Extract on Blood Sugar, Serum Insulin, Triglyceride and Liver Enzymes in Fructose Drinking Water Male Rats

“…In addition, Lim DW et al (2013) reported that administration of Artemisia capillaris extract in high-fat diet (HFD) -induced obese rats could decrease the body gain of weight, serum triglyceride, total cholesterol and Lowe Density Lipoprotein in this model [29]. Moreover, in HFD rats which were treated with Artemisia capillaris extract, serum AST and ALT significantly decreased compared to HFD-control group [27]. Our findings also showed that FDW increased the liver injury which is associated with high AST and ALT but this value in group FDW+E were significantly lower than FDW group that was also supported with the findings of Lim DW et al (2013).…”

“…High fructose utilization in modern diet is frequently connected with insulin resistance, and distressed glucose homeostasis [26]. Choi MK et al ( 2013) reported that the clinical uses of Artemisia capillaries is beneficial for hepatic disorders which is associated with alcohol and its mechanisms may involve both augmentation of antioxidant actions and modulation of proinflammatory cytokines [27]. Moreover, fructose rich diet cause increase of the hepatic triglyceride, total cholesterol levels, as well as serum activities of AST, ALT and lactate dehydrogenase [10].…”

Essential oil of Artemisia argyi suppresses inflammatory responses by inhibiting JAK/STATs activation

“…A. argyi is reported to possess multiple pharmacological activities including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiasthma, analgesic, antivirus, antioxidant, antitumor and immunomodulatory effects (Jiang et al, 2005;Ge et al, 2016;Huang et al, 2012;Bao et al, 2013;), most of which are contributed by the essential oil existing in A. argyi leaves. Though the anti-inflammatory activity of Artemisia genus has been studied intensively and several anti-inflammatory compounds were also found in this plant (Moscatelli et al, 2006;Min et al, 2009;Choi et al, 2013;Habib and Waheed, 2013;Jeong et al, 2014;Park et al, 2015;Zeng et al, 2014), there is no much substantial evidence supporting the anti-inflammatory property of this herbal medicine and the molecular targets for the effects still remain unclear, which limited its application into clinical practice. Therefore this study was aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory potential of the essential oil of A. argyi (AAEO), and investigate the underlying mechanisms by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated murine macrophages and acute in vivo inflammatory model in mice.…”
