Resumo: Xylopia laevigata (Annonaceae) is a medicinal plant used in folk medicine to treat pain and inflammation. Thus, we investigated the possible antioxidant, antinociceptive, and anti-inflammatory effects of X. laevigata leaf essential oil (EOX) in animal models.Our EOX sample showed the presence of y-muurolene (17.78%), &-cadinene (12.23%), bicyclogermacrene (7.77%), and a-copaene(7.17%) as main compounds. EOX presented a strong antioxidant potential according to the DPPH, TBARS, and nitrite productiontests. Additionally, pretreatment with EOX, in mice, also significantly produced (p < 0.05 or p < 0.001) antinociceptive effect byreduction of nociceptive behavior (in formalin and writhing tests). The EOX showed c-Fos label in the olfactory bulb, piriformcortex, and periaqueductal gray. Acute administration of EOX exhibited a significant (p < 0.01 or p < 0.001) anti-inflammatoryprofile in the carrageenan-induced peritonitis and by the carrageenan-induced hindpaw edema tests in mice. Our results provideevidence for the use of X. laevigata by traditional medicine practitioners in the management of pain and inflammatory disorders.
