Intractable chronic motor tics dramatically respond to Clerodendrum inerme (L) Gaertn.

29 Jun 2009 Tics are characterized by involuntary, sudden, rapid, repetitive, nonrhythmic, stereotyped movements or phonic productions. Those who suffer from either motor or phonic tics, but not both, for more than 1 year are diagnosed with chronic tic ... Read more...

Ethanolic extract of Clerodendrum violaceum Gürke leaves enhances kidney function in mouse model of malaria.

29 Apr 2009 Evaluation of the effects of daily oral administration of ethanolic extract of C. violaceum leaves (13 mg/kg body weight) for 5 days on some kidney function indices of uninfected and Plasmodium berghei-infected mice was done on days 3, 8 and 14 ... Read more...

A new rearranged abietane diterpene and other constituents from Clerodendrum philipinum.

27 Feb 2009 From the methanolic extract of the roots of Clerodendrum philipinum, a new rearranged abietane diterpene (1) and eight known compounds were isolated by various chromatography methods. Their structures were identified by means of spectroscopic ... Read more...
