Abstract

Methanol extracts from 26 species of Malaysian medicinal plants were investigated for platelet-activating factor Paf receptor binding inhibitory activity using rabbit platelets. Of the extracts tested fourteen plants namely Alphinia galanga Swartz Ardisia elliptica Thunb. Boesenbergia pandurata Roxb. Cinnamomum altissimum Kosterm. C. aureofulvum Gamb. C. pubescens Kochmmen C. scortechinii Gamb. Curcuma domestica Valeton Garcinia hombroniana Pierre Kopsia flavida B1. Momordica charantia Linn. Piper aduncum L. Zingiber officinale Rosc. and Z. zerumbet Koenig showed significant inhibitory effects of more that 45 at concentration of 18.2 microgram/ml.
