Hepatoprotective activity of ethanol extract of Haldinia cordifolia against paracetamol induced hepatic damage in albino rats was observed. In the present study the effect of ethanol extract of Haldinia cordifolia on serum markers such as SGPT, SGOT, ALP and Serum total bilirubin, anti oxidant studies such as SOD, CAT and LPO and Histopathological studies have been studied to find out the possi...

CONTEXT Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae) species are traditionally well-known for their medicinal properties including hepatoprotective activity. OBJECTIVE The study assessed the hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities of 11 Phyllanthus species, P. amarus Schumach., P. urinaria L., P. debilis Klein ex Willd, P. tenellus Roxb., P. virgatus G. Forst., P. maderaspatensis L., P. reticulatus Poir.,...

the ameliorative activity of aqueous extract of the flesh of dates (phoenix dactylifera l.) and ascorbic acid on thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity was studied in rats. sixty male rats were divided into six equal groups of 10. two groups were controls, one treated with thioacetamide and one with only distilled water. two groups received extract of flesh phoenix dactylifera and intraperitoneal...

in india, a number of medicinal plants and their formulations are used to cure hepatic disorders in traditional systems of medicine. no systemic study has been done on protective effect of cucumis trigonus roxb. (cucurbitaceae) to treat hepatic diseases. protective action of c. trigonus fruit extracts was evaluated in this study in animal model of hepatotoxicity, which was induced by carbon tet...

the ethanolic extract of ficus carica leaves was screened for hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity in hepatotoxic albino rats induced via carbon tetrachloride. the degree of protection was measured by estimating biochemical parameters such as serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (sgot), serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (sgpt), total protein (tp), total albumin (ta), alkaline phos...

protective action of ficus carica leaf ethanolic extract (obtained by maceration) was evaluated in an animal model of hepatotoxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride (ccl4). male albino mice were divided into six groups. group i was normal control group; group ii received olive oil (ccl4 solvent), groups iii-vi received ccl4. after inducing hepatic damage, group iii served as control for ccl4; a...

Bauhinia variegata (Leguminosae) commonly known as Kachnar, is widely used in Ayurveda as tonic to the liver. The present work was carried out to assess the potential of Bauhinia variegata bark as hepatoprotective agent. The hepatoprotective activity was investigated in carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) intoxicated Sprague-Dawley rats. Bauhinia variegata alcoholic Stem Bark Extract (SBE) at differe...

The objective of present study was to explore the hepatoprotective and antioxidant profile of Citrullus colocynthis fruits. Hepatoprotective profile of methanolic extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruits (MECCF) was investigated on rats, which were made hepatotoxic using paracetamol. The antioxidant profile of MECCF was evaluated by conducting Catalase, Super oxide Dismutase, Lipid Peroxidation ...

In order to confirm the constitution of hepatoprotective oleanene glucuronide (OG), HPLC profile analyses of the total OG fractions of both Puerariae Thomsonii Flos (the flowers of Pueraria thomsonii) and Puerariae Lobatae Flos (the flowers of P. lobata) were performed. No remarkable difference in the HPLC profiles with respect to OGs in the flowers was shown, in contrast to those of the roots....

Different fraction obtained from the aerial parts of Juniperus phoenicea showed significant activity as hepatoprotective when investigated against carbon tetrachloride induced liver injury. The hepatoprotective activity was evaluated through the quantification of biochemical parameters and confirmed using histopathology study. Phytochemical investigation of the petroleum ether, chloroform and m...
