Mimosa tenuiflora is reported widely used in diabetes, chest pain as an analgesic, anti-inflammatory and healing of wounds in folk medicine. This study was therefore partly aimed at investigating ex-vivo possible AChEI activity and ex-vivo wound healing activity. Cholinesterase inhibitory therapy serves as a strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The angiogenic activity of methanolic extract of M tenuiflora plant was studied using chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model (in-vitro) in 9 days old fertilized chick eggs. M tenuiflora had shown to be a rich source for new and promising agents (AChEIs) for the treatment of AD. The extract found to promote angiogenesis as evidenced in CAM model, presenting increasing number of capillaries on the treated CAM surfaces, which might be beneficial in the treatment of wound healing.
