Esculetin Ameliorates Carbon Tetrachloride-Mediated Hepatic Apoptosis in Rats
Esculetin (ESC) is a coumarin that is present in several plants such as Fraxinus rhynchophylla and Artemisia capillaris. Our previous study found that FR ethanol extract (FR(EtOH)) significantly ameliorated rats' liver function. This study was intended to investigate the protective mechanism of ESC in hepatic apoptosis in rats induced by carbon tetrachloride. Rat hepatic apoptosis was induced b...
متن کاملAstaxanthin Ameliorates Hepatic Damage and Oxidative Stress in Carbon Tetrachloride-administered Rats
Background Astaxanthin is of carotenoids group which possess strong antioxidant properties. The present study was conducted to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of astaxanthin in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-treated rats. Materials and Methods Female Long-Evans rats were administered with CCl4 orally (1 ml/kg) twice a week for 2 weeks and were treated with astaxanthin (10 mg/kg) every day ...
متن کاملHepatic collagenolytic activity in rats after carbon tetrachloride poisoning.
1. Collagenolytic activity towards acid-soluble collagen labelled with [(14)C]-proline was assayed in rat liver with and without carbon tetrachloride poisoning. The products of enzymic digestion were found to be free amino acids and peptides. 2. The hepatic collagenolytic activity increased under conditions of single-dose and subacute carbon tetrachloride poisoning, and correlated with hydroxyp...
متن کاملCarbon tetrachloride depresses hepatic phospholipid synthesis in rats.
40 h after an acute dose of CCl4 (11.3 mmol/kg), the incorporation of [1-3H]ethanolamine into rat hepatic microsomal phospholipids was inhibited to 70% of control. Incorporation into phospholipids of the inner and outer mitochondrial membranes was 30-35% of control. Rates of incorporation were equal to or above normal rates in all membranes 65 h after dosage. The activity of methyltransferase i...
متن کاملPien Tze Huang Gan Bao ameliorates carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatic injury, oxidative stress and inflammation in rats
Liver damage results from a variety of insults, including hepatitis and chemical toxicity from alcohol, drugs and other toxins. The present study evaluated the hepatoprotective effects and potential mechanisms of action of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Pien Tze Huang Gan Bao (GB) in a rat model of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver injury. Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly ...
