Exploration of In Vitro and In Vivo Pharmacological Activities of the Ethnomedicinal Plant Eranthemum pulchellum Andrews, Supported by In Silico Investigation
This research explores in vitro antioxidant activity and in vivo analgesic effects of Eranthemum pulchellum, highlighting its pharmacological potential.
Key Points
Eranthemum pulchellum demonstrated strong antioxidant activity with an IC50 of 22.32 µg/mL against DPPH.
In vivo tests showed MLEP reduced pain response significantly in mice, indicating potent analgesic properties.
The study identified eight key phytochemicals in MLEP, which demonstrated high activity towards relevant drug target proteins.
Findings suggest MLEP has promising potential for hypoglycemic effects, requiring further investigation for therapeutic use.
