Nephrotoxicity was induced with administration of paracetamol. Nephroprotection was studied using two doses of the extract. The experimental animals were divided into four groups (n = 6). Two groups served as positive and negative controls, respectively, and two received the test substances. All of the contents were orally administered. Significant reductions in nephrotoxicity and oxidative damages were observed in the treatment groups. There was a marked decrease in blood levels of urea, creatinine, and lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, it was found that glutathione levels in the blood increased dramatically after treatment. Histological findings confirmed the potent renoprotective potential of moralbosteroid. This was evidenced by the minimized intensity of nephritic cellular destruction. In animal studies, moralbosteroid exhibited dose-dependent activity, which is thought to be mediated through its antioxidant potential.]]> Wed 13 Jun 2018 11:02:23 AEST ]]> The microbial quality aspects and decontamination approaches for the herbal medicinal plants and products: an in-depth review https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23804 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:12:53 AEDT ]]> Embarking effect of ACE2-angiotensin 1-7/mas receptor axis in benign prostate hyperplasia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44588 Mon 17 Oct 2022 13:57:24 AEDT ]]>
