been used in traditional medicine as antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory
constituents and to treat menstrual cramps and sleep disorders, reduce
cramping and spastic pain in the bowels, relieve excessive gas and
bloating in the intestine, etc.
Ingredients
Guaianolides matricarin and achillin, acetoxyachillin and leucodin (=
desacetoxymatricarin), corresponding C-11
stereoisomers(a),(Z)-2-β-d-glucopyranosyloxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid
(cis-GMCA), chlorogenic acid,
(E)-2-β-d-glucopyranosyloxy-4-methoxycinnamic acid (trans-GMCA),
quercetagetin-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside, luteolin-7-O-β-d-glucoside,
apigenin-7-O-β-d-glucoside, chamaemeloside, apigenin
7-O-(6″-O-acetyl-β-d-glucopyranoside), apigenin] and one polyacetylene
(tonghaosu)(b).
Chamomile and Neuroprotective effect
The evaluation of the neuroprotective effect of German chamomile
against aluminium fluoride (AlF₄⁻)-induced oxidative stress in rats.
showed a neuroprotective effect of herbal chamomile, through
significantly decreased in lipid peroxidation (LPO) and increased in the
superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH), and
total thiol levels in extract-treated animals(1). The Hanagal Shri
Kumareshawr College of Pharmacy study, in support of the above, showed
the same effectiveness of the herb also through same mechanisms in
extract treated groups but this time in global model of ischemia in
rats(2)
