Abstract: Anti-inflammation effect of extract from sweet potato stem and leaf (ESPSL) were studied in mice. The influence of ESPSL on dimethylbenzene -induced ear swollen, increased vascular permeability and cotten-pellet granuloma were investigated. The results suggested that the petroleum ether extract from sweet potato stem and leaf couldn’t show anti-inflammatory effect, anti-inflammatory effects of other extracts had some relationship with the polarity of solvent.

Key words: sweet potato stem and leaf, anti-inflammatory
