Antinociceptive effect of flavonol and a few structurally related dimethoxy flavonols in mice.

Previous reports suggest flavonoids as potent analgesic compounds. Based on these observations, the present study investigated the antinociceptive action of flavonol, 3', 4'-dimethoxy flavonol, 6, 3'-dimethoxy flavonol, 7, 2'-dimethoxy flavonol, and 7, 3'-dimethoxy flavonol and the possible mechanisms involved in these effects. The antinociceptive effect of the investigated compounds in doses of 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg was evaluated in male Swiss albino mice using the acetic acid test, formalin-induced nociception, and hot water tail immersion test.

Effect of certain trimethoxy flavones on paclitaxel - induced peripheral neuropathy in mice.

Background: The anti - nociceptive effect of 7, 2', 3' - trimethoxy flavone, 7, 2', 4' - trimethoxy flavone, 7, 3', 4' - trimethoxy flavone and 7, 5, 4' - trimethoxy flavone against inflammatory, neurogenic and thermal pain in mice was reported earlier. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of the above trimethoxy flavones in amelioration of peripheral neuropathy induced by paclitaxel.

Methods: Peripheral neuropathy was induced in mice by administration of a single i.

Anti-nociceptive Effect of 7-methoxy Coumarin from (Asteraceae).

Aim: To evaluate the anti-nociceptive activity of 7-methoxy coumarin isolated from ethyl acetate fraction of the alcoholic extract of .

Materials And Methods: The shade dried leaves of were extracted with ethyl alcohol and the extract was condensed. This extract was fractionated with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol.

Anti-nociceptive activity of a few structurally related trimethoxy flavones and possible mechanisms involved.

Background: The present study was designed to investigate the anti-nociceptive activity of a few structurally related trimethoxy flavones (7,2',3'-TMF, 7,2',4'-TMF, 7,3',4'-TMF and 7,5,4'-TMF) and the possible mechanisms involved.

Methods: Anti-nociceptive activity was evaluated in mice by employing acetic acid-induced writhing, formalin-induced nociception and hot water tail immersion methods. The involvement of opioid, GABAergic, tryptaminergic, adrenergic and dopaminergic mechanisms and K+ATP channels in the anti-nociceptive activity of trimethoxy flavones was investigated using suitable interacting chemicals.
