Hepatoprotective potential of <i>Convolvulus arvensis</i> against paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity

Hepatoprotective activity of aqueous methanolic extract of <i>Morus nigra</i> against paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in mice

“…The alkaloids may be hepatotoxic at higher doses (Ali et al, 2013), so there is need to determine its dose for hepatoprotective action.…”

“…flavonoids, alkaloids and phenols have been reported in this plant Özgen et al, 2009). Most of the flavonoids have hepatoprotective activity (Ali et al, 2013). Traditionally M. nigra is worthwhile to cure jaundice (Abbasi et al, 2009).…”

“…However, now-a-days, the trend is also being changed to the use of herbal products or extracts to control the diseases. The plant kingdom still holds many species containing substances of medicinal value which have yet to be discovered: large numbers of plants are constantly being screened for their possible pharmacological value particularly for their anti-inflammatory , hypotensive , hypoglycemic, amoebicidal, anti-fertility, cytotoxic, antibiotic (Amin et al, 2012), spasmolytic, bronchodilator (Janbaz et al, 2013), anti-oxidant and hepatoprotective properties . Many plants have been identified as hepato-protective like Trianthema decandra (Balamurugan and Muthusamy, 2008), Cocculus hirsutus (Thakare et al, 2009), Carica papaya (Sadeque and Begum, 2010), Carissa spinarum (Hegde and Joshi, 2010), Convolvulus arvensis (Ali et al, 2013), Dodonaea viscosa , Trichodesma sedgwickianum (Saboo et al, 2013), Ipomoea staphylina (Bag and Mumtaz, 2013) and Khamira Gaozaban Ambri Jadwar Ood Saleeb Wala (Akhtar et al, 2013).…”

Hepatoprotective effect of aqeous methanolic extract of <i>Rumex dentatus</i> in paracetamol induced hepatotoxicity in mice

“…So there is an urgent need to investigate the natural plants and isolate their constituents which can be beneficial to control liver diseases (Ravikumar et al, 2012). It has been seen that many herbal plants are found to be hepatoprotective such as Cichorium intybus (Heibatollah et al, 2008), Luminet racemosa (Gnanadesigan et al, 2011), Solanum nigrum (Raju et al, 2003), Hibiscus vitifolius (Samuel et al, 2012), Chenopodium murale (Saleem et al, 2014), Trichodesma sedgwickianum (Saboo et al, 2013), Oflpomoea staphylina (Bag and Mumtaz, 2013), Convolvulus arvensis (Ali et al, 2013), Suaeda fruticosa (Rehman et al, 2013) and Khamira Gaozaban Ambri Jadwar Ood Saleeb Wala .…”
