Gastroprotective Effects of Gloriosa Superba Tubers against HCL/Ethanol Induced Gastric Mucosal Injury in Rats
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate gastroprotective activity of Gloriosa superba tuber extract (GSTE) on HCL/Ethanol induced gastric ulcers. Gloriosa superba plant is used for treatment of various diseases. Disease control group exhibited severe mucosal injury as compared to standard group (Omeprazole) and test group (GSTE) which showed protection towards gastric mucosal injury. Gastric wall mucus was significantly replenished by the pre treatment of test group and standard group which was reduced by HCL/Ethanol. Also antioxidants enzymes (SOD and LPO) were also brought back to normal level up to certain extent by test drug and Omeprazole.
