Interleukin-6 Level In Vivo And In Vitro Anti Inflammatory and Anti-Pyretic Evaluation of Aloe Vera Ethanolic Extract in Sprague Dawley
Keywords:
Interleukin-6, granuloma formation, cotton pellet-induced, Aloe Vera extractAbstract
Aloe vera has been extensively used in cosmetic applications. Aloe vera has anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and antioxidant effects.
Objective: to correlate the anti-inflammatory & antipyretic effect of Aloe vera ethanolic extract (AVEE) in vivo and in vitro models in rats in the interleukin-6 level.
Methods: a true experimental design with randomized approach included 25 male Sprague-Dawley rats. Separation and purification of each secondary metabolite of AVEE by phytochemical screening at the University of Indonesia laboratory. Rat paw edema was induced with cotton pellet-induced granuloma formation and IL-6 level. Efficacy of aloe vera was analyzed using ANOVA by SPSS v.27.0. the p-value for statistical significance was defined as p<0.01
Results: AVEE effective reduced granuloma tissue formation and protected granuloma through inflammation induced by cotton pellets and histological examination at 200 mg/kg BW. The effective concentration that effect IL6 concentration is 200 mg/kgBW AVEE and statistically significant(P<0.01).
Conclusion: Aloe Vera Ethanolic Extract (AVEE) has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activity in rats, altrough no significant to activity antipyretic in rats.
