Recent studies show that several species of Maytenus have effects on nociceptive and inflammatory signaling, as well as toxic effects on behavioral neuronal pathways.&lt;strong&gt; Aims:&lt;/strong&gt; The aim of this study is to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects and neurobehavioral side manifestations of the leaf of&lt;em&gt; Maytenus macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; (Ruiz and Pavón) Briquet. &lt;strong&gt;Methods and Materials:&lt;/strong&gt; Experimental study, double blind. 60 male albino mice strain Balb/c were divided in ten groups and each group, was orally feed with different doses of ethanolic extracts of &lt;em&gt;Maytenus macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; (500, 750, 1000, 1250 and 1500 mg/kg), others group received distilled water, caffeine 32 mg/kg, diazepam 32 mg/kg, diclofenac 15 mg/kg and the last group without substance. Neurobehavioral effects were assessed by the Irwin test. The anti-inflammatory activity was measured by the Carrageenan paw oedema test. Statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA test and Fisher exact test. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Anti-inflammatory effects of &lt;em&gt;M. macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; were observed in a non-significant trend of dose dependent form. &lt;em&gt;M. macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; displayed an anti-inflammatory effect at 1250 mg/kg and these effects were higher in comparison with diclofenac (74.14% vs 58.62%, one way ANOVA, &lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05). Neurobehavioral side effects secondary to &lt;em&gt;M. macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; therapy were also identified, these included excitation, abnormal gait, abdominal cramps, piloerection, stereotypes and scratching (Fisher exact, p&amp;lt;0.05, CI 95%). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;M. macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; leaves presented anti-inflammatory activity and concomitants neurobehavioral side effects.&lt;/p&gt;

Also, chuchuhuasi is known as a master plant, attributing to it properties in the central nervous system. In addition, depression is a disorder of the mood that cause disability to millions of people around the world. For this reason, the aim of this study was to determinate the antidepressant and antipsychotic-like activity of the ethanolic extract of Maytenus macrocarpa&lt;strong&gt;. Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; It was used the ethanolic extract of the leaves of &lt;em&gt;Maytenus macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; (EELMM) in female mice at the experimental model of the Forced Swim Test described by Porsolt. As control, it was used distillate water, fluoxetine and haloperidol. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The immobility time of the groups of EELMM has a mean of 38.26 &amp;plusmn; 21.57, 84.32 &amp;plusmn; 26.68 and 32.17 &amp;plusmn; 25.55 for the doses of 750, 1000 and 1250 mg/Kg respectively; and the immobility time had a median of 7.5 [4.07 &amp;ndash; 20.3] and 20.93 &amp;plusmn; [17.63 &amp;ndash; 23.75] for the doses of 500 mg/Kg and 1500 mg/Kg. It was seen a positive dose-response between the dose of 500 to 1000 mg/Kg (Pearson correlation of r=0.8339 and R=0.6954) and a negative dose-response between the dose of 1000 to 1500 mg/Kg. (Pearson correlation of r= -0.7590 and R= 0.5760). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; It was demonstrated the antidepressant-like activity of the ethanolic extract of the leaves of &lt;em&gt;Maytenus macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; with a dose of 500 mg/kg and an antipsychotic-like activity with a dose of 1000 mg/kg.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6s</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">s33</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;T&amp;aacute;cuna-Calder&amp;oacute;n Ana Lucia&lt;sup&gt;1,2,3&lt;/sup&gt;, Huaccho-Rojas Juan Jesus&lt;sup&gt;1,2,3&lt;/sup&gt;, Zimic-Zare Carolina&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;, Pante-Medina Carlos&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Salazar-Granara Alberto&lt;sup&gt;1,2,3*&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The aim of this study is to evaluate effects on inflammation and the nervous system of ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;J. curcas&lt;/em&gt; seeds. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; It was used 64 mice divided in 8 groups; respectively, 4 groups received 400, 600, 800 and 1000 mg/kg of ethanol extract of &lt;em&gt;J. curcas &lt;/em&gt;seed; and the rest intake Diclofenac, Diazepam, Caffeine and a control group not received any substance. The effects on inflammation was evaluated by Carrageenan-Induced paw oedema test and by Paw skin temperature. Neurological symptoms of toxicity were evaluated using the Irwin test. For the analysis of quantitative variables were used the following tests: one-way ANOVA, Tukey, Shapiro-Wilk and Pearson correlation; for qualitative variables Chi square was used. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;According to the paw oedema, it was showed a trend on an inflammatory effect of the seeds of &lt;em&gt;J. curcas&lt;/em&gt;; this activity was statistically significant in doses of 1000 mg/kg. Also, the skin temperature measurements outcomes reveal a positive dose response manner. Regard to neurological manifestations, Straub tail was founded in doses of 400 mg/kg. Stereotypies were founded in doses of 400, 600, 800 and 1000 mg/kg throughout the evaluation. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;J. curcas&lt;/em&gt; seeds were showed an inflammatory effect. In addition, effects on the nervous system were founded as stereotypes and Straub tail.&lt;/p&gt;
