EVALUATION OF NOOTROPIC ACTIVITY OF ETHANOLIC EXTRACT OF EUPHORBIA CYATHOPHORA STEMS ON MICE Authors: Padmavathi B , BHAVANA G AND RAMARAO N
ABSTRACT
Euphorbia Cyathophora is a naturally occurring plant that is a member of the Euphorbiaceae
family. This plant's stems have therapeutic qualities and are very nutritious. It is a native of
Mexico. Although Euphorbia Cyathophora has many applications, its primary uses are in the
treatment of skin infections, constipation, laxatives, and digestive issues. The current study
provides an explanation for the ethanolic extract of Euphorbia Cyathophora (ECEE) stems'
ability to improve memory. For nine days, the extract was taken orally in two doses of 100 mg
and 200 mg per kg. The herbal extract enhanced memory and lessened the amnesia caused by
diazepam (1 mg/kg). Behavioral models such as the Morris water maze, Labyrinth maze, and
Hebb’s William maze were used to describe memory improvement. Research has demonstrated
that the existence of flavonoids improved memory.
