Abstract α‐Terpineol ( TPN ), a volatile monoterpene alcohol, is relatively non‐toxic and one of the major components essential oils various plant species. In this study, we tested for antihypernociceptive activity (25, 50 or 100 mg/kg, i.p.) in mice using mechanical models hypernociception induced by carrageenan CG , 300 μg/paw) involvement important mediators its cascade signalling, such as tumour necrosis factor‐α TNF ‐α, pg/paw), prostaglandin E 2 PGE ng/paw) dopamine DA 30 μg/paw). We...
We attempted to identify the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory actions of monoterpene p-cymene. Firstly, behavioural screening was carried out verify influence p-cymene [25, 50, 100 mg/kg intraperitoneal (i.p.)] on central nervous system (CNS) activity. The activity evaluated by acetic acidinduced writhing response, formalin, hot-plate test, respectively. leukocyte migration induced injection carrageenan used assess p-Cymene showed depressant CNS after 4 h treatment also a possible...

Context: α-Terpineol (TPN) is a monoterpenoid alcohol present in the essential oils of several species Eucalyptus genus (Myrtaceae).
A doação de órgãos acarreta benefícios imensuráveis para o receptor, sendo, por vezes, a única alternativa determinadas enfermidades. O Brasil, sua vez, possui maior sistema público transplantes do mundo e vinha apresentando um incremento na taxa doadores até pandemia pela Covid-19. Contudo, é notório que país tem condições melhorar ainda mais os números realizados educação em saúde sobre tema, quando bem executada difundida, interfere positivamente no processo. partir disso objetivou-se...
O câncer de pele é a neoplasia mais comum no Brasil, apresenta como carcinógeno predominante radiação ultravioleta (UV), cujos danos são influenciados pela região geográfica, exposição solar, fotoproteção e fotótipo cutâneo. Os protetores solares tópicos produtos que possuem substâncias interferem na absorção cutânea da energia proveniente RUV. No entanto, segundo estimativa Sociedade Brasileira Dermatologia, cerca 63% das pessoas expõem ao sol sem qualquer forma proteção. A literatura...
The present study investigated the antinociceptive effects of Ocimum basilicum L. (Lamiaceae) leaf essential oil (LEO) and (-)-linalool (LIN) in formalin (2%)-, glutamate (25 µM)- capsaicin (2.5 µg)- induced orofacial nociception models mice. involvement these substances was further evaluated on neuronal excitability hippocampal dentate gyrus. Male mice (n=8/group) were pretreated separately with LEO by LIN (50, 100, 200 mg/kg, i.p.), morphine (5 i.p.) vehicle (saline + Tween 80 0.2%),...
This study investigated the possible antinociceptive effect of p-cymene in different tests orofacial nociception. The animals (mice) were pretreated (i.p.) with (25, 50, 100 mg/kg), morphine (5 or vehicle (0.2% Tween 80+saline), and then subsequently administered, subcutaneously into their upper lip: formalin, capsaicin, glutamate. nociceptive behavior response was characterized by time s that mice remained rubbing region, for a period 40 min formalin test (first phase, 0-6 min; second 21-40...
In this study, we describe the antinociceptive activity of ethanol extract (EE), chloroform (CF) and methanol (MF) fractions obtained from Sida cordifolia, popularly known in Brazil as “malva branca” or branca sedosa”. Leaves S. cordifolia were used to produce crude after CF MF. Experiments conducted on Swiss mice using glutamate formalin‐induced orofacial nociception. formalin test, all doses EE, MF significantly reduced nociception first (p < 0.001) second phase 0.001), which was also...
Hyptis pectinata L. Poit, known as ‘sambacaitá’, is used in Brazil to treat inflammatory and painful disorders. In this study, the antioxidant orofacial antinociceptive properties of aqueous extract H. leaves (AEPH) were assessed using vitro vivo models. Thus, AEPH reduced 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl radical up 72.10% with an EC 50 14.56 µg/ml. It also inhibited 40.80% lipoperoxidation induced by 2′‐azobis (2‐amidinopropane) dihydrochloride thiobarbituric acid‐reactive substances assay....
Citronellal is a monoterpene present in the oil of many species, including Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt (Poaceae).The study investigated effect citronellal on inflammatory nociception induced by different stimuli and examined involvement NO-cGMP-ATP-sensitive K⁺ channel pathway.We used male Swiss mice (n = 6 per group) that were treated intraperitoneally with (25, 50 or 100 mg/kg) 0.5 h after subplantar injection 20 μl carrageenan (CG; 300 µg/paw), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α; pg/paw),...
Carvacrol (CARV) is a phenolic monoterpene present in the essential oil of several aromatic spices. The purpose study was to evaluate antinociceptive effect CARV on formalin-, capsaicin-, and glutamate-induced orofacial nociception mice. Male mice were pretreated with [25, 50, 100 mg/kg body weight (BW), intraperitoneal (i.p.)], morphine (5 BW, i.p.), or vehicle (distilled water + one drop 0.3% cremophor distilled water), before formalin (20 μl, 2%), capsaicin 2.5 μg), glutamate (40 25 μM)...
This study aimed to evaluate the orofacial antinociceptive effect of Cymbopogon winterianus essential oil (LEO) complexed in β-cyclodextrin (LEO-CD) and assess possible involvement central nervous system (CNS). The LEO was extracted, chromatographed, β-cyclodextrin. complex characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermogravimetry derivative (TG/DTG). Male Swiss mice (2-3 months) were treated with LEO-CD (50-200 mg/kg, p.o.), vehicle (distilled water, or standard drug (i.p.)...
