This study showed the protective role of the phenolic extract of Urtica dioica and silver nanoparticles (AgNPS) on the hepatotoxicity effect via carbon tetrachloride (CCL4) within white male rats. Hundred and ten male albino rats weighing (200-250g) and aged (10-17week). Animals were housed in the animal house of faculty of Science/University of Kufa under control condition; light 12 and 12 dark hours and temperature (24±2C°).Animals divided into four groups as follows the control groups, carbon tetrachloride groups, phenolic extract groups, and silver nanoparticles, groups. Subdivided groups above depending on the concentration (250 and 500mg/kg) of phenolic extract, (10 and 5mg/kg) of silver nanoparticles for (two and three) month add to dosage after and before induced by carbon tetrachloride (five animals per group).The current study revealed the occurrence of a significant decrease (P≤0.05) in the level of regucalcin when the administered by phenolic extract and silver nanoparticles for (two and three months) compared with carbon tetrachloride group. Highly significant (p≤0.05) with the concentration of the (500mg/kg) for phenolic extract and (10mg/kg) for silver nanoparticles, and no significant observed between extract and silver nanoparticles for (two and three months) and before and after induced by the carbon tetrachloride.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
