Abstract

The present study was carried out to investigate hepatoprotective effects of herbal mixture in female albino rats, in the paracetamol (PCM) induced hepatotoxicity model. Treatment of rats with herbal mixture at dose of (2g /kg for 4 weeks) significantly prevented the serum biomarker enzymes (AST and ALT). Herbal mixture further reduced PCM induced oxidative stress and inflammation in the rat liver by inhibiting lipid peroxidation and restoring the levels of antioxidant enzymes (PCO, LPO, MPO SOD, CAT, GSH, and HO-1). Our results indicate that herbal mixture can prevent hepatic injury with PCM induced hepatotoxicity by eliciting therapeutic protection against free radical stress and inflammation.
