e present study examines the neuropharmacological and antidiabetic properties of methanol leaves extract of Lannea
coromandelica in animal models. is study is carried out by elevated plus-maze apparatus, motor coordination, thiopental
sodium has an induction role in sleeping time, hole board, hole cross, open field, antidiabetic studies. Mice were treated doses of
100, 150, and 200 mg/kg body weight in elevated plus-maze apparatus and motor coordination; 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight in
sleeping time, hole cross, hole board, and open field tests; and 200 and 400 mg/kg body weight in the antidiabetic activity test.
Extraction specifies a significantly decreased time duration and sleeping time in a thiopental sodium-induced sleeping time test.
e experimental extract decreased locomotor and exploratory behaviors of mice in the open-field and hole-cross tests compared
to the effects of the control. Furthermore, the extract increased sleeping time with a dose-dependent onset of action. e hole-
board test extract also demonstrated a reduced number of head dips. e findings showed that L. coromandelica has potential
neuropharmacological effects. In addition, in alloxan-induced diabetic mice, leaves extract at 200 and 400 mg/kg body weight
revealed significant antidiabetic properties and could be used to manage blood glucose levels with more research.
1. Introduction
A stressful lifestyle has recently been connected to several
neurological disorders, indicating that depression is an
apparent medical problem in these disorders [1–4]. Anti-
psychotic agents such as tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs),
monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOs), and selective se-
rotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are available to treat
various psychotic disorders. Still, their long-term employ-
ment is being hindered by several unwanted side effects
[5, 6]. erefore, exploring novel anxiolytic agents with low
detrimental consequences is still ongoing for a suitable
