Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of Teucrium polium (TP). Rats were divided into four groups: group 1 controls received standard diet; group 2 inflamed by carrageenan (Carr) (1% Carr); group 3 as reference inflamed with Carr and treated with Indometacine (Ind) (150 mg/kg bw) and group 4 inflamed with Carr and pre0treated with TP (5 g/L). Oedema volume was measured 1 h to 5 h after injection. Administration of TP or Ind decreased the levels of hematology parameters relative to Carr and reduced the volume of rats induced by Carr. TP reduced levels of CRP, fibrinogen compared to treated, a decrease in oxidative stress (LP) and AOPP with an increase in the levels of SOD, CAT, GPx and Vit C in skin and erythrocytes. Carr increased the levels of lipid peroxidation and decreased levels of antioxidant enzymatic and Vit C. Our results were confirmed by histological sections of skin.
