Evaluation of marine brown algae Sargassum ilicifolium extract for analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity

Abstract: Background:The methanolic extract of Sargassum ilicifolium (Pheophyceae) was used to evaluate its analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity in the present study.Materials and Methods:Analgesic activity was tested using Acetic acid writhing method and Eddy hot plate method in Male albino mice and Wister rats respectively at a dose level of 1, 10, 50, 100mg/kg p.o. At the same dose, its anti-inflammatory activity was also tested using Carrageenan induced rat paw edema method Result Acetic acid writhing test and E… Show more

“…Seaweed polysaccharides have various biological activities, including anti-inflammation (Coura et al, 2012;Jung, Jin, Ahn, Lee, & Choi, 2013;Simpi, Nagathan, Karajgi, & Kalyane, 2013). NO is an inflammatory mediator induced by inflammatory cytokines or bacterial LPS in various cell types including macrophages (Swindle & Metcalfe, 2007).…”

“…This study found that the content of flavonoids in algae can reduce pain by reducing prostaglandins [7]. Another study by Simpi et al found that Sargassum ilicifolium is able to relieve pain by producing acetic acid which allows seaweed to produce its analgesic activity both peripherally and centrally [5].…”

“…This marine algae has been considered safe, non-toxic, easy to find, and its availability is not limited to various fields [3,4]. A number of pharmacological activities have been reported on marine algae, for example, antitumor, cytotoxic antioxidants, anthelmintic, anticoagulant, antibacterial, antifungal, hepatoprotective effect, and inhibiting DNA polymerase and xanthine oxidase [4,5]. A study by Hong et al using Sargassum fulvellum and Sargassum thunbergii indicated the presence of antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory activity in mice [6].…”
