Evaluation of the anti-inflammatory efficacy of Lotus corniculatus

Protected effect of Esenbeckia leiocarpa upon the inflammatory response induced by carrageenan in a murine air pouch model

“…Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) was carried out on silica gel 60 F254 plates (Macherey-Nagel, Düren, Germany). Finally, the structures were confirmed by comparison with literature data [11,12].…”

“…DHC and β-Sit were identified by a comparison of their respective spectroscopic and chemical data with that in the literature [11,12]. Structures of the other known compounds isolated were determined from spectroscopic data ( 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR (Varian AS-400 -Palo Alto, CA, USA), and IR -Perkin-Elmer FTIR 16 PC, Beaconsfield, England).…”

“…1B), respectively, that have not previously been reported to be present in this species. The compounds were identified by routine spectrometric methods ( 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR) and by comparison of their NMR data with that presented in the literature [11,12].…”

Optimization of Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction of Phenolic Antioxidants from Lotus corniculatus

“…[5] The plant is used in traditional medicine as febrifuge, dermatic, [5] anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, cardiotonic, carminative, hypoglycemic, restorative, sedative, tonic and vermifuge agent. [6,7] In vitro studies have demonstrated good anti-inflammatory [8] and antimicrobial activity [9] of L. corniculatus, as well as its lectin-induced apoptotic activity in various human tumor cell lines. [10] In addition to that, the diet consisting of L. corniculatus increased reproductive efficiency in ewes.…”

Therapeutic and Preventive Effects of a New Type Healthy and Viable Food Supplement on Fatty Liver and Blood Lipids in Animal Model

“…showed anti-hepatic steatosis effect of the healthy and viable dietary supplement in rats fed with high fat diet[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31].Today, the importance of medicinal plants and herbs and their vital role in advancing national, regional and global goals for achieving medicinal self-sufficiency, employment creation,economic development, food security, and preserving genetic reserves with active participation in global markets is unknown. Therefore, distribution of indigenous populations and subspecies of medicinal plants and economic importance of these species in the pharmaceutical and spice industry, gathering and evaluating indigenous populations under identical cultivation conditions and selecting the most suitable chemotypes for domestication, modification and use in the food and pharmaceutical industries can be effective.…”
