Prunella vulgaris and Azadirachta indica extracts were shown to inhibi t type I and II phospholipase Ag activity. These enzymes, involved in the biosynthesis of inflammation and allergy mediators and in the diff erentiation process of keratinocytes, are suitable for the screening o f substances with a potent pharmacological activity.
