Proposed mechanism of action of anti-arthritic efficacy of Tamarind seed extract (TSE).
TSE is demonstrated to block arthritis-mediated cartilage degeneration, bone resorption, inflammation and oxidative stress by modulating the respective enzymatic and non-enzymatic parameters. The rat picture used in the figure is captured by Mr. MS Sundaram (first author) while performing animal experiment for the present study.
