Popis: | The present study is designed to decipher a clinical evidence and biochemical support for hepatoprotective and antidiabetic efficacy of Acacia auriculiformis by its bark and empty pods. Animal models with paracetamol intoxicated liver injury and alloxan induced diabetes were used in a 7 and 14 days trial respectively. The interventions were tested at 200 and 400 mg/kg b.w. for bark extract; 100 and 200 mg/kg b.w. for empty pod extract. Both interventions restored the liver function markers (alanine transaminase: ALT, aspartate transaminase: AST, alkaline phosphatase: ALP, total bilirubin and total protein) and hepatic antioxidants (superoxide dismutase: SOD, catalase: CAT, reduced glutathione: GSH and glutathione peroxidase: GPx) to the normal levels than elevated levels noticed on paracetamol control at P |
