| Protein profiles analysis of liver, kidney and spleen by SDS-PAGE in aqueous leaf extract of Tragia involucrata L. (Euphorbiaceae) was injected intraperitoneally in albino rats for 30 days. The variation of protein changes was recorded. In liver, the aqueous leaf extracts treated (1500 mg/kg body/weight) group did not exhibit a marked increase in any of the polypeptides over control. But in the case of other treatments (250, 500, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg body weight doses) the profile showed significant increases in the accumulation of all polypeptides that were quantified using densitometry. This concludes that the aqueous leaf extract influenced the accumulation of polypeptide in higher concentration. Extra polypeptides may be responsible for the protective... |

| Synthetic drugs, which are having serious side effects, are cytotoxic to human beings. Moreover, bacteria slowly become resistant against antibiotics. In order to overcome these problems, scientists are continuing to search for antibacterial and novel principles from plants. Zanthoxylum limonella has been popularly used in traditional systems of medicine for the treatment of dental caries, cardiac, respiratory diseases and stomach problems. The present study was therefore focused on finding out the medicinal properties of the bark of Z. limonella tested against some selected bacteria using disc-diffusion method at the concentration of 100, 200 and 300 mg/ml. The methanol and water extracts of the bark exhibited effective antibacterial activity against S.... |
