Effect of Calophyllolide, a Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agent, on Capillary Permeability

Abstract: Calophyllolide, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, was found to be effective in reducing the increased capillary permeability induced in mice by various chemical mediators involved in the inflammatory process viz, histamine (HA), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and bradykinin (BK). Pretreatment with calophyllolide (p. o.) afforded significant protection against induced increase in capillary permeability by HA (PD50 144.1 mg/kg), 5-HT (PD50 250.0 mg/kg) and BK (PD50 133.5 mg/kg). Clinical studies with calophyll… Show more

“…A. moluccana oil is also used to treat conditions such as ulcers, rabies and asthma, and it has anti-bacterial activity [11, 12]. Calophyllum inophyllum oil also has demonstrated therapeutic effects, which include healing and anti-inflammatory actions [13, 14]. This oil is already used in skin-healing creams at a concentration of 30%.…”

“…Tamanu oil demonstrates anti-inflammatory activity. This activity is due partly to the 4-phenyl coumarin calophylloide [8][9] and to a group of xanthones in the oil, including dehydrocycloguanandin, calophyllin-B, and euxanthone. Al the xanthones in tamanu oil show anti-inflammatory activity 10 .…”
