Evaluation of Anti-acne and Thrombolytic Activity of Sarcostemma Plant. Anti-acne and Thrombolytic Activity

      Аннотация: In this study, we evaluated thrambolytic and anti-acne activity of methanolic extract of Sarcostemma acidium commonly used traditional medicinal plants from India. Various research works are undertaken in quest of thrombolytic and anti-acne drugs. Herbal drugs can be a source to address this concern. This is only a preliminary study and to make the final statement about the potentiality of these herbs as anti-acne and thrombolytic drugs may require further study. Studies may be undertaken to identify the chemical structure of the active ingredients of the root extracts and to elucidate the exact mechanism of action. Methanolic extract displayed a potent antibacterial activity in the dose-dependent manner. Further studies are needed for these potent plant extracts to evaluate the other parameters of anti-acne effectiveness (e.g. in vivo efficacy and toxicity).
