Varieties of plants and lyophilized bovine bile have been used for increase secretion of bile in traditional systems of medicine of various countries. Following many articles note on the benefi cial effects of lyophilized bovine bile particularly on the wound healing and gastric protection effects, there is paucity of reports in literature on its effects on a bile secretion, a bile bilirubin, bile cholesterol and a plasma cholesterol levels. Sillichol contains lyophilizedbovine bile, liver hydrolisate, yarrow extract and silymarin. The aim of this study was to find out the effect of bile fl ow, bile bilirubin concentration bile cholesterol level and hepatoprotective of Sillichol. Sixteen adult male wistar rats (weighing between 200-250 gr) were used in the study. They were randomly assigned into control and sillichol group comprising 4 in each group. Thereafter, they were weighed and anaesthetized with ketamine (2ml/200gr body weight) muscle leg and quickly pinned to a dissecting board. Laparotomy was performed and liver lobes were defl ected anterolaterally to expose the common bile duct. The common bile duct was cannulated with a portex cannula (0.5 mm diameter) after a semitransection was made on the bile duct. The cannuls was held in place with thread tied over it and around the bile duct.The bile was collected for 8 hours from each rat studied according to method of Rozuet Jousse. The rate of bile fl ow was noted, the volume of bilirubin, bile cholesterol levels were determined in the control and test groups. Moreover, total of 18 wistar rats (200-250 gr) were obtainedfrom laboratory house of Drug research institute and acclimated for 10 days before starting the experiment. Liver toxicity was induced by the subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCL4, 0.4 ml/100gr), 1:1 diluted with paraffi n oil, for four successive days of the experiment (N.P.Scakun et al, 1983). The rats were divided randomly into 3 groups comprising 6 rats in each group and fed the same diet throughout the experimental period. Mean values of bile cholesterol and bilirubinlevels, rate of bile secretion in the control and sillichol group. Bile cholesterol levels were signifi cantly decreased in the sillichol group compared with the control group (60.3±0.88 mg/dl vs 62.6±1.21mg/dl, p<0.05). Rate of bile secretion was signifi cantly increased in the experimental compared with the control group(10.21±0.25 ml/8hr vs 4.18±0.25 ml/8hr, p<0.05). Total bilirubin, conjugated and unconjugatedbilirubin concentrations in both sillichol and control groups were not signifi cantly different (p<0.01). The activities of GOT, GPT and ALP were estimated in serum samples as the liver function biomarkers using biochemical diagnostic test. The CCL4 treatment markedly affected the liverspecifi c enzymes. It was found that a signifi cant (p<0.05) increase in serum GOT, GPT and ALP activities of CCL4 treated rats. After the treats, hepatic biomarkers were elevated in the serum due to release of the enzymes from damaged liver. GOT (69.8±1.5), GPT (103.9±1.2), ALP (23.8±0.2) and Cholesterol (67.7±13.6) andtriglyceride (64.0±3.3) levels weredecreasedsignifi cantly (p<0.05) in the sillichol groupcompared with the control group. Silichol is decreasing concentration of cholesterol and bilirubin’s level in bile, constantly after administration of drug. Also, liverpreparation is increasing bile acid secretion in hepatocytes and a speed of secretion.From the results of pharmacological study concluded that involves CCL4 induced acute toxic hepatitis, liver preparation has hepatoprotective effect by protecting the liver cells from injury, improving the regeneration process and by correcting metabolic functions of the liver.

IntroductionA hangover is the experience of various unpleasant physiological and psychological effects followingconsumption of alcohol beverages, which can last for more than 24 hours. Common symptoms ofhangover are headache, gastrointestinal complaints, sweating, hyper-excitability, dry mouth, anorexia,diarrhea, dizziness, fatigue and vertigo. Alcohol or ethanol gets metabolized to an intermediate product,acetaldehyde, by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), and then acetaldehyde is converted toacetate by a second enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). Acetaldehyde causes toxic effects,such as high pulse, rate, sweating and vomiting. In most people, ALDH metabolizes acetaldehydequickly and effi ciently, so that this intermediate metabolite does not accumulate in high concentrations.Many treatments are described to prevent hangover, shorten its duration, and reduce the severity of itssymptoms, including innumerable folk remedies and recommendations.GoalThis study was conducted to investigate whether anti-hangover preparation has a protective effectagainst acute alcohol induced hangover in Wistar rats.Materials and MethodsMale and female Wistar line rats, weighing 180-210g were used for hangover model or ethanolmetabolism experiment. Rats were administered orally ethanol as 38% aqueous solution with feedingneedle, 1 ml/200g body weight. The anti-hangover preparation was administered 1 hour before ethanolconsumption. Blood was collected from the tail vein for the measurement of serum acetate andacetaldehyde at just before and 8, 16, 24 hour after ethanol administration.Statistical analysis: All value expressed as mean S.E obtained from n number of experiments.ResultFrom this study results summarize that the anti-hangover preparations decreased blood serum acetateand acetaldehyde levels as compared to control. Anti-hangover preparations enhanced acetaldehydeand acetate metabolism.Conclusion: These fi ndings indicate that anti-hangover preparations may exert benefi cial role inthe treatment of alcohol hangover without any toxicity. Therefore, the content of acetaldehyde wasdecreasing and increasing through repeating 8 hours within 24 hours.

BackgroundPreliminary clinical studies indicate that liver extract may be helpful in treating hepatic dysfunction. In addition, liver extract seems to work synergistically with interferon in treating hepatitis C and other viral infections. Laboratory studies indicate that liver extract may have some effects that could be useful in treating certain forms of cancer, such as ability to direct migration of metastasizing cells and inhibition of DNA, RNA and protein formation. More research is needed in these areas to determine liver hydrolysate’s properties.Materials and MethodsSeveral biochemical methods were used for determination of chemical compounds in liver extracts: Total protein and nitrogen content was determined by Kjeldahl method; mineral contents – atomic absorption spectrophotometer; Heme iron content – spectrophotometer; Water soluble vitamins - HPLC method. The pharmacological activities of bovine liver were tested by several pharmacological methods: Acute toxicity – LD50 /Prozorovskii 1978/; Acute hepatitis – Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced liver damage in rats /Skakun et al, 1984/; Biochemical parameters in blood serum – Automatic biochemical analyzer.ResultThe values obtained in determination of the biochemical analysis show that 100 g consumption of studied liver hydrolysate can provide 4.3, 2.1 and 0.3 mg vitamin B1, B3 and B9 respectively. Therefore, present data reveal that liver hydrolysate is a good source of most of the analyzed minerals. The liver hydrolysate contains 56.4% total protein and 4.33% amino nutrient.Conclusions:1. From the results of pharmacological study that involves CCl4 induced acute toxic hepatitis, liver hydrolysate has hepatoprotective effect by protecting the liver cells from injury, improving the regeneration process and by correcting metabolic functions of the liver.2. When tested, hydrolysate’s pharmacological parameters can be analyzed reliably with several liver damage experimental designs, further improvements or the use of new designs such as anemia is needed in further pharmacological study.

BackgroundLiver protecting effect of liver hydrolysate is studied on CCl4 induced by acute toxic hepatitis on rats compared with “Raw Liver Glandular” which is similar product of “Swanson”, USA. Result was confirmed with histological study.Materials and MethodsCarbon tetrachloride-CCl4 is considered as a direct hepatotoxin which produces centri-lobular necrosis and steatosis. The mechanism of acute toxic hepatitis induced by CCl4 involves lipid peroxidation of membrane bound fatty acids which result in destructing the cell membrane and the intracellular organells of the hepatocyte.Result:As study result, after 7 days CCL4 exposure, experimental group’s serum ALAT (p<0.01), GGT (p<0.05) and ALP (p<0.05) levels decreased rapidly compared with control groups.ConclusionAlthough, liver hydrolysate is not medicine for treatment liver damage, it might be improved regeneration process in the damaged liver cells. As result, histomorphological study came to the following conclusion: in the seventh day of the model of acute toxic hepatitis of the liver in rats, cytoplasm vacuoles of hepatocytes were decreased sharply, hepatocytes became multilateral, “Kupffer cells” were increased, young hepatocytes were streamlined as columnar-cells, capillaries were became visible and was began regeneration. There were reported that bovine and pork protein hydrolysate contains essential amino acids with antioxidant effect which prevents liver cells from oxidative stress. Besides it, liver hydrolysate containing amino acids, vitamin B1, B6, folic acid and some minerals improves metabolism and regeneration process of damaged liver cells.

Introduction:
Constipation is highly prevalent, often chronic gastrointestinal disorder that affects
adults. The treatment with classic drugs did not cut, in one hand with the inadequate relief of bloating
and other symptoms, and with the luck of efficacy in relieving constipation. Therefore, the search
for novel safe laxative drugs seems, inevitable. Rheum undulatum L. was traditionally used in
constipation, thus we have attempted to evaluate the laxative effect of Rheum undulatum L.
Purpose:
The laxative effect of Rheum undulatum L. was evaluated against loperamide
induced constipated rats.
Methodology:
Fifteen male normal rats were used in this study. Fifteen male constipated wistar
albino rats weighing 180-250 g were also used for the study and randomized into three groups
(n=5) in each of the experiments. Constipated control group rats oral administrated distilled water.
Constipated rats (treatment groups) were treated with 4.1 mg/kg dose body weight /day of the
preparation for one day and also Laxing a standard drug was used for the reference group. The
fecal weight, the fecal humidity laxative activity were monitored in experimental rats.
Results:
Constipation was successfully induced in the rats by loperamide as seen in the
elevated fecal properties compared to the control rats. The Rheum undulatum L. compounds
preparation administered orally produced significant laxative activity and reduced loperamide
induced constipation in dose dependent manner as seen in the increase of fecal output. The
same doses of the Rheum undulatum L. compounds preparation produced a significant increase
(P<0.05) fecal weight, the faeces humidity. The effect of the compounds preparation compares
favourably well with Laxing, a standard laxative drug.
Conclusion
The results of this study justify the use of Rheum undulatum L. compounds
preparation as a laxative in traditional medicine. The produced significantly increase in fecal output
of rats and the stimulation of gastrointestinal motility.
