1.Effects of longterm hepamarin therapy on some hematological and biochemical indicators in experimental mice
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):31-32
A study on the effects of longterm hepamarin therapy on some hematological and biochemical indicators in 50 experimental male mice was carried out. The hepamirin was a preparation from phyllantus amarus used at dose of 5 g/kg of bodyweight within 3 months. The results have shown that above mentioned dose of hepamarin did not affect on the number of leukocyte, erythrocyte and body weight of mice as well as liver and kidney functions

2.Study on biological active ingredients from Phyllanthus niruri linn, Euphorbiaceae
Pharmaceutical Journal 2003;9():12-14
Phyllanthus niruri L. has been used in the folk-medicine of Vietnam and many countries in the world. Authors published the results about separation and recognition phyllathin hypothyllathin and beta-sitoscriptase, these are antioxidant, antibacterial activities. It works at 3 bacterial strains, these are: E. coli, B. subtilis and S. cervisiace; both these agents expressed antioxidant activity but much less than quercetin

4.Study on hepato-cellular protective action of Phyllanthus niruri L. in mice intoxicated by CCL4
Pharmaceutical Journal 1999;274(2):21-23
The hepatoprotective effects of extracts from Phyllanthus niruri obtained by different extraction procedures were evaluated using mice with acute hepatitis, included by CCL4. The effects of lowering the serum ALT and AST of these extracts were clearly demonstrated. It was founded that the hepatoprotective effect of extract produced a protective action better than a recovery one on. Activities of Extract 3 and ChophytolR were compared

Background:
Flavonoids from Emblica officinalis effectively reduced serum and tissue lipid levels through their
inhibitory effect on the hepatic β-hydroxy-β-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity. This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of E. officinalis extract in adults with dyslipidemia.
Methods:
We searched the following electronic databases: MEDLINE (PubMed), MEDLINE (Ovid), Google Scholar, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov from inception until January 31, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the abstracts, reviewed full-text papers, and critically appraised the quality of included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using the random-effects model. Our primary outcomes were total cholesterol, LDL-C, serum triglycerides, and HDL-C levels, while secondary outcomes included adverse events.
Results:
A total of four randomized trials (N = 227) were included in the final analysis. There were statistically
significant decreases in total cholesterol levels (SMD = -21.23 mg/dL, 95% CI: -34.22, -8.25; P = 0.001) and LDL-C levels (SMD = -25.12 mg/dL, 95% CI: -40.24, -10.00; P = 0.001) and significant increase in HDL-C levels (SMD = 4.74 mg/dL, 95% CI: 0.40, 9.07; P = 0.03) after 12 weeks of intervention favoring the use of the Emblica extract over placebo. However, there were no statistically significant difference in the serum triglycerides levels following 12 weeks of treatment (SMD = -22.28 mg/dL, 95% CI: -53.33, 8.76; P = 0.16). There was high heterogeneity noted across all outcomes: total cholesterol (P = 0.01, I2 = 72%), LDL-C (P = 0.0004, I2 = 83%), HDL-C (P < 0.00001, I2 = 91%) and serum triglycerides (P < 0.00001, I2 = 93 %). The intervention was well tolerated and adverse events reported in the three of four studies were all mild: dyspepsia (7 events – treatment), mild diarrhea (3 events – placebo), fever (1 event – placebo), headache (1 event – placebo).
Conclusion
Compared to placebo, Emblica officinalis fruit extract resulted in lower total cholesterol and LDL-C levels and increased HDL-C levels but with no effect on serum triglyceride levels based on low certainty of evidence. Trials with a larger sample size that directly compare E. officinalis extract to statins, preferably local data, are needed to support its use in patients with dyslipidemia further.

6.Anti-inflammatory, Anti-arthritic and Analgesic Effect of the Herbal Extract Made from Bacopa monnieriis, Cassia fistula and Phyllanthus polyphyllus.
Natural Product Sciences 2017;23(2):108-112
Anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and analgesic activity of each herbal extract, which is extracted from Bacopa monnieriis, Cassia fistula and Phyllanthus polyphyllus, respectively. The treatment of herbal extract exhibited anti-inflammatory effect as a dose-dependent manner, from 1.25mg/kg to 12.5mg/kg, in acute inflammatory models (carrageen and egg-albumin induced rat hind paw edema). It also elicited significant anti-inflammatory activity in chronic inflammatory models (cotton pellet granuloma and Freund's adjuvant induced polyarthritis in rat). In cotton pellet granuloma test, the extract exhibited the inhibitory effect of 23 and 57% at the dose of 6.25 and 12.5 mg/kg, respectively. In Freund's adjuvant induced model, the treatment of the extract of 1.25, 6.25 and 12.5 mg/kg showed the inhibitory effect of 23, 56 and 66% at 8 days, respectively. In the acetic acid-induced model, the extract significantly reduced abdominal writhing in mice when compared to the control group, reducing the mean number of writhing from 41 ± 2 in the control group to 17 ± 3 and 15 ± 2 at the dose of 6.25 and 12.5 mg/kg. From these experiments, the extract, which was extracted from the combination of Bacopa monnieriis, Cassia fistula and Phyllanthus polyphyllus, (w/w/w = 1/2/1) is surprisingly found a significant analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity.

Crude extracts and active principles from medicinal plants have shown potential role in controlling plant diseases in glasshouses as well as in fields as one of the safest and ecofriendly methods. The effect of nor-securinine (an alkaloid) isolated from Phyllanthus amarus has been seen against spore germination of some fungi (Alternaria brassicae, A. solani, Curvularia pennisetti, Curvularia sp., Erysiphe pisi, Helminthosporium frumentacei) as well as pea powdery mildew (Erysiphe pisi) under glasshouse conditions. The sensitivity of fungi to nor-securinine varied considerably. Nor-securinine was effective against most of the fungi. H. frumentacei was more sensitive even at the lowest concentration (1,000 microg/ml). Likewise conidia of E. pisi were also inhibited in partially or completely appressorium formation. Pre-inoculation treatment showed greater efficacy than post-inoculation in inhibiting powdery mildew development on pea plants in a glasshouse. Maximum inhibition occurred at 2000 microg/ml

OBJECTIVETo study the growth rules, the output and the influence factors of cultivated Phyllanthus urinaria, and provide basis for standardized cultivation.
METHODOrthogonally designed field experiments with three factors and three levels, comparing the characters of cultivated plants and the wild ones of P. urinaria.
RESULT AND CONCLUSIONUnder the manual planter condition, the characters, such as branching number, single dry weight, single output etc, enhanced enormously, and the increase of single output reaches 3.27 times. The sowing time was the most sensitive factor, which affected the single character and the yield per unit of area, whereas the different levels of sowing thickness and fertilizer also remarkably influenced the output. When the seeds were sowed at the mid-April earlier period, drilling with the 20 cm row spacing, they started to emerge about 1 week later, the growth flush period was from June to August, the growth slowed down in September, and the output per hectare could reach to 5.750 kilograms at harvest in late October.
