Hepatoprotective activity of Uncaria tomentosa extract against sub-chronic exposure to fipronil in male rats
The effects of fipronil (FPN) on the liver of rats were studied. Rats ( n = 6) were treated with 9.7 mg/kg (1/10 of FPN LD 50 ), and other rats ( n = 6) received 120 mg/kg of 10% Uncaria tomentosa extract, while a mixture of 9.7 mg/kg FPN and 120 mg/kg of 10% Uncaria tomentosa extract were adminis...

extract were administered orally to the rats (
n
= 6) daily for 6 weeks. Body, hepatic weights, liver enzymes, and lipid profile were determined. Hepatic activities of MDA, TNO, TAC, TNF-α, and IL-6 in liver homogenate were measured. Immunohistochemistry of NF-kB and liver histopathology were performed. Fipronil-treated rats had a significant (
