Abstract
Anticoagulant and fibrinolytic activities, as well as inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation of water (2%) and ethanol extracts from the peony root bark (P. lutea) are demonstratedin vitro. Chronic peroral administration of the ethanol extract activates anticoagulant and fibrinolytic processes in rat blood. Water extract apart from anticoagulant activity, strongly enhanced blood fibrinolytic potency and inhibited platelet aggregation, which implies its possible antithrombotic properties.
