Abstract:
Introduction: A number of risk factors predispose an individual to hepatic drug Thus, there is need to develop a effective hepatoprotective formulation which could reduces of such liver complications caused due to hepatotoxic agents etc. The present work was focused on the investigation of hepatoprotective activity of various herbal formulations “Adapton 6” containing aqueous as well as hepatoprotective crude drugs. The herbal drug ingredients of Astragalus membranaceae (Астрагала перепончатого), Rhaponticum cartamoides (левзеи), Rheum palmatum L (ревеня), Rosa cinnamomea (плоды шиповника), Crataegus sanguine Pall (боярышника) and Hippophae rhamnoides L (облепихи) Purpose: The present study aims to examine the effects of Hepatoprotective activity of multicomponent herbal drug “Adapton 6”Materials and Methods: The hepatoprotective effect was studied further in rats, using carbon tetrachloride (CC!4)-induced hepatotoxicity as in vivo model. The Hepatoprotective activity of “Adapton 6” were evaluated and compared statistically after inducing hepatotoxicity in rats by intraperitonally administration of carbon tetrachloride (CCL4) with olive oil 50% as a diluent in 3 times 1 day. The liver damage was confirmed by estimation of elevated levels of cytoplasmic enzymes Serum Glutamate Transaminase (SGOT), Serum Glutamate Pyruvate Transaminase (SGPT), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), serum bilirubin and malondialdehyde (MDA), hydroperoxides, glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT).Result: On intraperiteonally administration of CCl4 in dose of 100 mg/kg produced acute hepatic damage in positive control (carbon tetrachloride treated) when compared with normal control. In treats groups, formulations “Adapton 6” were administered simultaneously with CCl4. Estimated levels of enzymes SGOT, SGPT, SALP and bilirubin in test groups were compared with levels of enzymes in normal, control groups. These show hepatoprotection effect but other due to antioxidant effects like exist of malondi-aldehide and catalase (CAT) activities.Conclusion: On conclusion, the prepared multicomponent herbal drug “Adapton 6” has demonstrated a very good hepatoprotection against the CCl 4 induced liver damage.
