Özet
Ethnopharmacological relevanceThese findings provide scientific support for the traditional use of Centaurium erythraea Rafn (Gentianaceae) in Algerian folk medicine and suggest its potential for further pharmacological exploration in the management of pain and neuroinflammatory conditions.Aim of the studyThe present study aimed to scientifically validate these traditional uses through phytochemical profiling and pharmacological evaluation of the aqueous extract (C. erythraea aqueous extract, CEAE).Materials and methodsThe polyphenolic composition was characterized, and in vitro antioxidant and DNA protection activities, enzyme inhibitory effects, as well as in vivo analgesic activity using the acetic acid–induced writhing and hot plate tests, in addition to acute oral toxicity, and molecular docking studies were evaluated.ResultsLC-ESI-MS/MS analysis revealed the presence of several phenolic and flavonoid …
