Gastric ulcer is one of the major health problems in developing countries. Furthermore, high cost and of adverse effects are seen with the long term use of allopathic drugs in treatment of ulcer which are diminished by the use of herbal drugs. The aim of this study is to evaluate antiulcer activity of crude extract of Dalbergia sissoo leaves on experimentally induced gastric ulcer in wistar albino rats. Methodology involves screening for antiulcer activity of the plant using pylorus ligation and Indomethacin induced ulcer models in albino rats using 4 groups as; control (Tween 80 1 % v/v solution, 5 ml/kg), standard (Ranitidine 80 mg/kg), 250 mg/kg leaves extract and 500 mg/kg leaves extract given respective doses orally (p.o.). The parameters viz. mean ulcer index, percentage protection, gastric pH, protein, carbohydrate, pepsin, free and total acidity and ratio of total carbohydrates and proteins (TC:TP) were determined. The result showed the significant decrease in mean ulcer index of the leaves extract treated group in both the models compared to control. Furthermore, as obvious from pylorus ligation model the offensive factors like free and total acidity, pepsin content and protein content were decreased to significant levels whereas the defensive factors like total carbohydrate content and TC:TP ratio were increased significantly compared to control in dose dependent manner. The study concluded that leaves extract of Dalbergia sissoo had significant antiulcer activity and was not only effective in reducing the development of gastric ulcer but also increasing the healing of the gastric ulcer in dose dependent manner.
