Stress-protective activity of the extract of Fornicium uniflorum L.
Abstract
The results of studies on the adaptogenic properties of Fornicium uniflorum L. extracts has been given in the present article. The aim of the study was to evaluate stress-protective activity of extracts from Fornicium uniflorum L. at immobilization stress in white rats. The dry extract from Fornicium uniflorum rhizomes has stress protective properties in 18-hour immobilization stress simulated in white rats. It has been revealed that the given plant remedy prevents from the development of the “Selye’s triad” signs: hypertrophy of renal glands, involution of immune competent organs (thymus and spleen), as well it prevents heavy destructions in the stomach mucosa of white rats. It has been established that the stressprotective effect of the tested plant remedy is due to its inhibiting influence in the processes of free radical oxidation that is testified by the decrease in the concentration of TBA-active products. The antioxidant activity of the Fornicium uniflorum extract is due to the capacity of phytoecdysteroids and phenolic compounds contained in the plant, to render the direct antiradical effect, as well to increase the activity of the endogen antioxidant system of the defence in the animals.
