Herb pair of Polygala tenuifolia Willd and Acorus tatarinowii Schott decoction attenuates seizures and alleviates anxiety in mice: Evidence for modulating inflammation, alleviating oxidative stress and mediating GABA pathway.

Currently, prolong use of standard anti-epileptics may cause tolerance and ineffective for about 30% of epileptic patients. Medicinal plants provide an attractive therapeutic effect in preventing and treating seizures in traditional and folk medicine. In this study, we investigate the antiepileptic effects of PTAT decoction on acute and chronic seizure models in mice and explore the potential mechanisms.

Chemical composition and anticonvulsant activities of herb pair of Gastrodia elata Blume-Acorus tatarinowii Schott decoction on experimentally induced seizures in mice.

Epilepsy is a serious public health problem in the world. At present, over 30% of affected patients remain refractory to currently available treatment. Medicinal plants as pharmaceuticals and healthcare treatments have been frequently used in the management of epilepsy in China for many centuries.

Anti-Nociceptive and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of the Ethyl Acetate Extract of (L.) Redouté in Raw 264.7 Cells in vitro and Mouse Model in vivo.
