Ginkgo biloba extract prevents ethanol induced dyslipidemia.
Ginkgo biloba extract (EGB) functions as a natural substantial antioxidant and hypolipidemic. Chronic alcohol abuse leads to sustained dyslipidemia characterized by hyperlipidemia and lipid peroxidation. Thus, the present study investigates the effect of EGB on lipid disorders induced by ethanol in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed with ethanol (2.4 g/kg), and pretreated with a daily dose...
متن کاملRed wine ameliorates CCl4 – induced acute liver injury in rats
Consumption of a naturally occurring polyphenol, in moderate amounts, has been suggested to be beneficial to health. The present study investigated the efficacy of red wine on prevention of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced acute hepatic injury in wistar rats. Hepatic damage due to CCl4 intoxication was assessed by employing biochemical parameters, markers of hepatic oxidative damage were mea...
متن کاملGinkgo Biloba Extract Ameliorates Oxidative Phosphorylation Performance and Rescues Aβ-Induced Failure
BACKGROUND Energy deficiency and mitochondrial failure have been recognized as a prominent, early event in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recently, we demonstrated that chronic exposure to amyloid-beta (Abeta) in human neuroblastoma cells over-expressing human wild-type amyloid precursor protein (APP) resulted in (i) activity changes of complexes III and IV of the oxidative phosphorylation system (O...
متن کاملBlack bean extract ameliorates liver fibrosis in rats with CCl4-induced injury.
UNLABELLED We assessed the anti-fibrotic effects of methanolic black bean extract antioxidants in a carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) liver injury model in rats. Experimentally intoxicated animals received CCl4 for eight weeks, the reference and test groups received daily intragastric quercetin or daily intragastric black bean extract. Liver fibrosis was assessed and quantified using morphometric ana...
متن کاملBeneficial Effects of Ocimum gratissimum Aqueous Extract on Rats with CCl4-Induced Acute Liver Injury
Ocimum gratissimum (OG) is known as a food spice and traditional herb, which has been recommended for the treatment of various diseases. To investigate the hepatoprotective effect of OG aqueous extract (OGAE), male Wistar rats challenged by carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) were used as the animal model of chronic hepatic injury. Significantly increased serum catalase and DPPH levels were detected ...
