Amelioration of airway inflammation and pulmonary edema by Teucrium stocksianum via attenuation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and up-regulation of AQP1 and AQP5.

Current study investigates the immunomodulatory effects of T. stocksianum using mouse model of ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic asthma. The mice were treated with methanolic extract, n-hexane, and ethyl acetate fractions for consecutive 7 days along with intranasal challenge.

Amelioration of allergic asthma by Ziziphora clinopodioides via upregulation of aquaporins and downregulation of IL4 and IL5.

Ziziphora clinopodioides has been frequently used as an anti asthmatic plant in traditional medication. Recent work explores the anti-asthmatic activity of Z. clinopodioides in allergen-induced asthmatic mice.
