چکیده
The gastroprotective effect of the different fractions of Tribulusterrestris L. was investigated in the indomethacininduced gastric ulcer in rats at dose of 30 mg/kg body weight. The petroleum ether and aqueous fractions hada significant gastroprotective activity, while the chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions hada moderate gastroprotective activity.

Gastroprotective effect of sodium hydrosulfide against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer in diabetic rats
Introduction: The incidence rate of gastric erosions and ulcers in diabetic patients are higher due to failure of mucosal antioxidant defense and maintain enough blood flow. The present study evaluated the gastro-protective effect of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) against indomethacin-induced gastric lesions in diabetic rats. Methods: In order to test anti-ulcer activity of NaHS against indomet...
متن کاملGastroprotective Effect of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Aloe buettneri
Aloe buettneri A. Berger is commonly used in traditional Togolese medicine to treat inflammatory and gastric ulcers. The present study examined the gastro-protection effect of the hydro-alcoholic extract of A. buettneri on mucus production and gastric pH. A gastric ulcer is induced by ethanol 95° alone (1 ml/kg body weight), after pre-treatment with indomethacin (300 mg/kg) or by utilising L-NA...
