Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAcute Hypotensive and Diuretic Activities of Chamaemelum nobile Aqueous Extract in Normal RatsN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThis study aims to evaluate the effect of Chamaemelum nobile (Cn) intravenous injection on cardiovascular and renal function of normal rats. Intravenous bolus injection of Cn at the dose of 50, 100 and 200 mg kg-1, produced dose dependent reduction in arterial blood pressure (p<0.001). Significant reduction in heart frequency was observed after Cn injection at a dose of 100 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,115 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part VI: in vitro Vasorelaxant EffectN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThe aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro vasorelaxanteffect of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) at a dose of 10 mg mL-1. Aortic rings isolated from normal wistar rats were used. The addition of CSAE during the plateau phase of contraction, induced by noradrenaline and KCl, produced a rapid relaxation. Incubation of aortic ring with CSAE during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,444 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCardiovascular Effect of Capapris spinosa Aqueous Extract in Rats. Part II: Furosemide-like Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract in Normal RatsN.A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, T. Sulpice, T. M. EddouksThe purpose of this study was to examine the diuretic effect of the aqueous extract of Capparis spinosa (Cs) at a dose of 500 mg kg-1 h-1 in normal rats. The aqueous extract was administred intravenously and the diuresis was followed within four hours after starting the treatment.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAnti-hyperglycaemic and Hypolipidemic Effects of Ocimum basilicum Aqueous Extract in Diabetic RatsN.A. Zeggwagh, T. Sulpice, T. M. EddouksThe hypoglycaemic and hypolipidemic effects of the aqueous extract of Ocimum basilicum (OB) whole plant were investigated in normal and streptozotocin (STZ) diabetic rats. After a single oral administration, OB significantly reduced blood glucose levels in normal (p<0.01) and diabetic rats (p<0.001). After 15 days of repeated oral administration, OB produced a potent reduction on blood glucose levels (p<0.001) in … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,719 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part III: Antihypertensive Effect in Spontaneously Hypertensive RatsZeggwagh Naoufel Ali, Mohamed Eddouks, Jean Baptiste Michel et al.This study aims to evaluate the hypotensive activity of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) in spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats. CSAE was lyophilised and administrated daily at a dose of 150 mg kg-1 for 20 days. CSAE administration produced a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure after eight days of oral administration (p 0.05) after 20 days of oral administration. We … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 9,327 accessesView PDF Cite
