Anti ulcer activity of root, stem and leave of Murrya koenigii (Linn.) Spreng was studied against ethanol, hydrochloric acid, indomethacin, stress and pyloric ligation induced gastric ulceration in albino rats. Significant antiulcer activity was observed in root, stem as well as leave of MurryaKoenigii (Linn.) Spreng in all the gastric ulcer models studied. Maximum anti ulcer activity was found...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the gastroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of extract (TO) obtain from leaves Taraxacum officinale, which is used in treatment many diseases including gastric ulcers traditional medicine, an indomethacin-induced ulcer model. Forty rats, 10 animals each group, were divided into four groups (Control (C), TO + Indomethacin (TO+IND), (IND) Omeprazo...

Simvastatin appeared to have additional benefits beyond their lipid lowering effects, which has led to interest in the use of this class of drugs outside the field of cardiovascular disease. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the possible gastroprotective effect of simvastatin against both indomethacin and cold restraint stress (CRS) induced gastric ulcers in rats and to study its effect on g...

OBJECTIVE Cod liver oil is used widely as a dietary supplement. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of cod liver oil (0.5 g/kg, p.o. and 1 g/kg, p.o.) on gastric and duodenal ulcers. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was carried out on different gastric ulcer models such as acetic acid induced chronic gastric ulcers, pylorus ligation, indomethacin induced ulcers, stress ind...

A number of 2-((4-ethylphenoxy)methyl)-N-(substituted-phenylcarbamothioyl) benzamides (1a-h) were synthesized via reaction of 2-((4-ethylphenoxy)methyl)benzoyl isothiocyanate (2) as a key intermediate with several substituted primary aromatic amines. The new compounds were characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance ((1)H-NMR), carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance ((13)C-NMR), infrared s...

The present study was undertaken to determine the anti-ulcer and antioxidant potential of GutGard, a standardized extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra commonly known as licorice. Effect of various doses (12.5, 25, and 50 mg/kg, po) of GutGard was studied on gastric ulcers in pylorus ligation-, cold-restraint stress- and indomethacin induced gastric mucosal injury in rats. Anti-ulcer activity was evalu...

Aims: This study was aimed at investigating the protective potential of ethyl acetate fractions Persea americana (PA) seed and Bryophyllum pinnatum (BP) leaf binary combinations against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcers.
 Methodology: Fifty (50) male Wistar rats were used in this study; they assigned into 10 groups five animals each respective received a standard rat diet drinking water ...

Indomethacin is a nonsteroid anti-inflammatory agent that is known to induce severe gastric mucosal lesions. In this study, we investigated the effect of selenium on gastric mucosal lesions in rats. To confirm the curative effect of selenium against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcers, gastric ulcers were induced by oral administration of 25 mg/kg indomethacin, and then different doses (10, 50,...

The objective of this study was to investigate the antiulcer activity of leaves of Aspilia africana C.D. Adams (Compositae) in rats. Fresh dried leaves of A. africana were extracted by hot water maceration and the yield freeze dried. Antiulcer effects of the aqueous extract at 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg were evaluated in rats using ethanol, indomethacin and aspirin induced ulcer methods. Phytochemica...

Background: The last decade has been marked by increasing data regarding gastroinstestinal diseases, specially gastritis and ulcer. In order to prevent or treat these diseases, many studies have demonstrated the potential of medicinal plants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the phytochemical profile and the gastroprotective activity of the methanolic extract of Myrcianthes pungens whole f...
