In vitro cytotoxic and in vivo anxiolytic study of methanolic crude extract of Streculia villosa seeds

We have aimed to evaluate the in vitro cytotoxic and in vivo anxiolytic and sedative activities of the methanolic extract of Sterculia villosa roxb seeds. The dried powder of the seeds was extracted with methanol which was then tested to ascertain the neuropharmacological and cytotoxic potential...
