Screening Effective Parts of Antitussive and Anti-inflammatory from Miao Medicine Guoshangye
Objective: To screen the effective parts of antitussive and anti-inflammatory fromMiao Medicine Guoshangye.Methods: The effect on alleviating cough was observed in mice with ammonia water or sulfur dioxide induced cough;and the effect of extracts on xylene-induced ear edema, acetic acid induced vascular permeability and carrageenan-induced hind paw edema tests in mice were investigated.Results: The parts of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and water extracts could decrease the cough frequency in mice with ammonia water or sulfur dioxide, inhibit ear swelling caused by Dimethyl benzene, carrageenan-induced hind paw edema model in mice and the increase of peritoneal capillary permeability induced by HAC.Conclusion: The ethyl acetate parts of Guoshangye has significant function of antitussive and anti-inflammatory effects.
