Anti-inflammatory activity

Sample name	Anti-inflammatory activity against MMP-2 (%)	Anti-inflammatory activity against MMP-9 (%)
Isabgol (Plantago ovata Forssk. )-1^st	30%*	40%*
PC	90%^#	100%^#
NC	10%^$	20%^$

*Percentage inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by isabgol is 30% and 40%, respectively, ^#Percentage inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by positive control (tetracycle) is 90% and 100% respectively, ^$Percentage inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by negative control (no compound) is 10% and 20% respectively. PC: Positive control, NC: Negative control, MMP: Matrix metalloproteinase
