In Vitro | Phyllomedusin increases neuronal excitation with psychoactive and behavioral responses[4]. Phyllomedusin can cause smooth muscle contraction and vasodilatation[4]. |
In Vivo | Phyllomedusin (30-300 μg/kg, i.p.) delays gastric emptying in conscious rats[2]. Phyllomedusin (0.1 and 5 μg/kg, i.v.) has stimulant activity on the stomach of the anaesthetized rat[3]. Animal Model: Conscious rats[2]. Dosage: 30, 100, 300 μg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.) Result: Caused 75% delay in gastric emptying in conscious rats. |
