Popis: | Purpose: Colorectal cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers, worldwide. The presentstudy aimed to examine the effects of Scrophularia oxysepala (SO) methanolic extract on1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) induced colon cancer model in the Wistar rats.Methods: The animals administered DMH (40 mg/kg/S.C.) biweekly for 2 weeks to induceaberrant crypt foci (ACF). Other groups of animals were given the SO extract (50, 100 and200 mg/kg/orally once/day) either before or after the DMH treatments. In the end, all animalswere killed and at necropsy, the colon samples examined. The ACF, aberrant crypt (AC), cryptmultiplicity (CM), caspase 3 protein and apoptosis measurement were performed.Results: The SO extract significantly (P |
