Abstract: Objective : To investigate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of extracts of Solanum lyratum Thumb. Methods : The anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of alcohol extract and water extract from Solanum lyratum Thumb were observed by means of acetic acid inducing mouse writhing model,hot plate method,dimethylbenzene inducing ear edema model and carrageenan inducing rat voix pedis swell model. Results :It was found that alcohol extract and water extract from Solanum lyratum Thumb significantly reducing the writhing frequency induced by acetic acid,markedly increasing the pain threshold in mice induced by hot plate,evidently suppressing the mouse's ear edema induced by dimethylbenzene and significantly mitigating the rat voix pedis swell inducing by carrageenan.The role of water extract was better than which of alcohol extract. Conclusions :The water extract from solanum lyratum thumb has notable effects on anti-inflammation and analgesia.
