Studies
Antiparasitism:
Study investigated the efficacy of Z. rhetsa leaf extract against experimental Hymenolepsis diminuta infections in albino rats. The efficacy of the extract was moderate against immature and adult stages of parasite. Results suggest the leaves of ZR possess significant anticestodal property and supports its use in folk medicine. (1)
Bark Constituents: Study yielded 15 compounds. dodecanoic acid, 9,12,octadecanoic acid, oleic acid, octadecanoic acid, 2-hydoxyl-1,3-propanediyl ester, and 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, diisooctylester--phytochemicals that showed various properties: antioxidant, antimicrobial, larvicidal, anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic. (see constituents above) (2)
Essential Oil / Antibacterial: Essential oil steam distilled from aqueous, alkaline, and acidic media showed significant antibacterial activity against S. aureus, E. coli, P. vulgaris and K. pneumonia probably due to synergistic effect of the components present in the oil. The acid distilled essential oil can be used as a potential external antiseptic and incorporated into drug formulations. (3)
Secondary Metabolites: An ethanolic extract of fruit yielded 8 glycosides, 10 flavonoids, 6 essential oils, 5 anthraquinones, 9 bitter principles, 7 coumarins, and 8 terpenoids. (5)
Antinociceptive / Anti-Diarrheal: A methanol extract of stem bark significantly reduced abdominal contraction induced by acetic acid and diarrheal episodes induced by castor oil in mice. (7)
Anticestodal / Anti-Diarrheal: A leaf extract was investigated against experimental Hymenolepis diminuta (Cestoda) infections in albino rats. The extract exhibited moderate efficacy against immature and adult stages of the parasite. The anticestodal property supports its use in folk medicine. (8)
Sunscreen Activity / Seed: Study evaluated the formulation of a sunscreen lotion using a methanolic extract of ZR seed. Evaluation of sunscreen activity using in vitro SPF method showed the formulation to be 1.09 with an ultra boot star rating 2 which approaches toward sunscreen activity. (9)
Pharmacogonostical Study of Spine: Study attempts a modest comprehensive investigation of the stem spines of Zanthoxylum rhetsa. Various extracts of stem spines yielded alkaloid, catechin, coumarin, flavonoid, phenol, quinone, steroid, tannin terpenoid, sugar, glycoside, xanthoprotein, and fixed oil. Ash value is 4.41%—ash value are constant for a given drug, and generally the index of purity as well as identity of the drug. The pharmacognostic studies include microscopic, physicochemical constants (ash & extractive values), fluorescence analysis and preliminary phytochemical evaluations. (10)
Antidiabetic / Leaves: Study evaluated the hypoglycemic effects of an aqueous methanolic extract of Zanthoxylum rhetsa leaves. Phytochemical screening yielded flavanoids, glycosides, tannins, saponins, terpenes, steroids, and anthocyanins. (see study below). Study suggests a vital role for Z. rhetsa leaves in diabetic healing. (11)
Anti-Inflammatory / Inhibition of LPS-Induced COX-2 and iNOS Expression: Study evaluated a methanol extract of ZR for its ability to suppress the formation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cycloxygenase-2 (COX-2) in LPS-activated RAW 264.7 macrophages. The production of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), the mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-a and IL-1ß, were dose dependently reduced by MZRR extract. Results suggest the extract's involvement in the inhibition of iNOS and COX-3 via the NF-kB pathway, a partial molecular basis for its anti-inflammatory effect. (12)
Antibacterial / Stem and Roots: Study evaluated the antibacterial properties of root, stem, and bark of Zanthoxylum rhetsa. Alcoholic and acetone extracts of bark and stem showed antibacterial properties against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus megatarium and Escherichia coli. Roots showed less antibacterial properties than bark and stem. (13)
Antioxidant / Aerial Parts: Study investigated the in vitro antioxidant activity of Z. rhetsa by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging methods. Ethyl acetate, methanol, and water extracts showed significant DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activity. Methanol extract showed the highest amount of phenolic and flavonoid contents. (14)
Haemostatic Activity: Indian herbs have been traditionally used for wound healing and controlling hemorrhage from cuts and bruises. In a screening study of ten Indian medicinal plants, a petroleum ether extract was one of the the plants that showed haemostatic activity. (19)
Antinociceptive / Antioxidant / Seeds : Study evaluated the antinociceptive and antioxidant potential o an ethanol extract of Z. budrunga seeds. In hot-plate test, ZB seed extract raise the pain threshold significantly. In DPPH scavenging assay, IC50 was observed at 82.60 µg/mL. Phenolic content was 338.77 mg GAE/100g of dried plant material. Caffeic acid and other phenolics may play a role in the observed activity. (18)
Antidiarrheal / Antispasmolytic / Pericarp Essential Oil : Study of essential oil, its fractions and terpinen-4-ol exhibited appreciable antioxidant, antibacterial, antidiarrheal and non-selective spasmolytic activity. The active component terpinen-4-ol has a high potential in the treatment of stress and gastrointestinal diseases. (see constituents above) (20)
Seed Oil Composition / Radical Scavenging Activity / Inhibition of GI Motility: Study evaluated seed fatty acid content and fixed oil composition. Fixed oil exhibited significant free radical scavenging activity and significant inhibition of gastrointestinal motility. (see constituents above) (21)
Antihyperglycemic / Antihyperlipidemic / Antioxidant: Study of methanolic and aqueous extracts of Z. rhetsa bark in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats showed potent antihyperglycemic, antihyperlipidemic and antioxidant activity. (22)
Thrombolytic / Leaves: Study evaluated the thrombolytic activity of a methanolic extract of Z. rhetsa leaves. Results showed significant thrombolytic activity 25.23 ±0.04% compared with maximum effect of Streptokinase 66.978 ±0.11. (23)
Anthelmintic / Leaves: Studies on leaf extract have shown a high degree of efficacy against larval stage in H. diminuta rat model and moderate level of efficacy against immature and adult stages of tapeworm. (25)
• Anti-Inflammatory / Stem: Study of shade-dried Z. rhetsa stem extracts by protein denaturation and HRBC method showed significant anti-inflammatory activity. Denaturation of protein is a well documented cause of inflammation and rheumatoid arthritis. (see constituents above) (27)
• Antioxidant / Shoots / Aerial Partw: Study evaluated a methanolic extract of shoots of Z. rhetsa for total flavonoid and total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. Results showed antioxidant potential by DPPH and ABTS assays with IC50 of 306 ± 4.21 µg/ml and 271 ± 3.5 µg/ml, respectively. Study showed not significant correlation between total phenolic, total flavonoid, and antioxidant activity. (see study above) (28) Study evaluated various extracts of Z. rhetsa aerial parts for antioxidant activity. Ethyl acetate, methanol, and water extracts showed significant DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activity. Reducing power was maximal in the methanol extract. (29)
• Cytotoxicity Against B16-F10 Melanoma Cancer / Bark: GC-MS analysis of bark of Z. rhetsa identified major volatile constituents and isolated two tetrahydrofuran lignans (yangambin and kobusin), a berberine alkaloid (columbamine) and a triterpenoid (lupeol) from the chloroform fraction. All solvent fractions and purified compounds were non-cytotoxic to HDF (human dermal fibroblasts). However, the chloroform fraction and kobusin showed cytotoxic effect against B16-F10 melanoma cells. The activity was attributed to bioactive lignans and alkaloids. (30)
• Effect on Hyperglycemia and Hyperlipidemia / Bark: Study evaluated the antihyperglycemic, antihyperlipidemic, and antioxidant effect of methanolic and aqueous extracts of ZR bark in normal and STZ-induced diabetic rats. Results showed significant hypoglycemic effect and reduction in lipid parameters along with marked rise in HDL-C level. There was also relevant antioxidant activity. (31)
• Photoprotective / Sunscreen and Anti-Ageing Potential / Bark: Study reports on the photoprotective potential of Z. rhetsa. An ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest sunscreen protection factor (SPF) value. All fractions exhibited broad UV spectrum absorption for both UVB and UVA regions. The EA fraction showed highest activity by DPPH and NO free radical scavenging assay. Results suggest the ZR bark extract has great potential as natural ingredient in broad spectrum sunscreen and anti-ageing cosmetic products. (33)
• Piscicidal Effect / Seeds: Study evaluated the toxic effect of Z. rhetsa seed extracts of stinging catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis. Results showed Z. rhetsa has potential pisicidal effect on fish and can be used widely to control unwanted fishes. (34)
• Alpha-Amylase Inhibition / Potential Hypoglycemic / Bark: Study evaluated various extracts of Z. rhetsa for hypoglycemic effects via in-vitro α-amylase inhibition. Results showed significant percentage inhibition of +5.67. Isolate from the methanolic extract yielded a flavonoidal moiety. (see constituents above) (36)
