Dietary nucleotide supplementation reduces thioacetamide-induced liver fibrosis in rats.
Dietary nucleotides reportedly promote functionality and repair in fibrotic liver. Liver fibrosis is characterized by an excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix components, which lead to the impairment of the hepatic function. The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of dietary nucleotides on liver fibrosis induced by thioacetamide and to elucidate the mechanism by which nucleo...
متن کاملPolaprezinc prevents ongoing thioacetamide-induced liver fibrosis in rats.
AIMS Cirrhotic patients commonly have a liver zinc deficiency, which may aggravate liver fibrosis due to the lack of antioxidative effects of zinc. This study examined the ability of polaprezinc, N-(3-aminopropionyl)-l-histidinato zinc, to prevent fibrosis in a rat model of thioacetamide (TAA)-induced hepatic fibrosis. MAIN METHODS Liver cirrhosis was induced by orally administering TAA for 2...
متن کاملRegenerative Effect of Bone Marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Thioacetamide-induced Liver Fibrosis of Rats
The present study determined the regenerative effect of bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMSCs) on thioacetamide (TA)-induced liver fibrosis in rats. A total of 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham control and treatment groups. The rats of the sham control group were subdivided into three groups and sampled on the 14th, 18th, and 20th weeks after fibrosis induction. The rats of th...
متن کاملPASS-Predicted Hepatoprotective Activity of Caesalpinia sappan in Thioacetamide-Induced Liver Fibrosis in Rats
The antifibrotic effects of traditional medicinal herb Caesalpinia sappan (CS) extract on liver fibrosis induced by thioacetamide (TAA) and the expression of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), α-smooth muscle actin (αSMA), and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in rats were studied. A computer-aided prediction of antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities was primarily performed wi...
متن کاملHepatoprotective Role of Ethanolic Extract of Vitex negundo in Thioacetamide-Induced Liver Fibrosis in Male Rats
The hepatoprotective activity of ethanolic extract from the leaves of Vitex negundo (VN) was conducted against thioacetamide- (TAA-) induced hepatic injury in Sprague Dawley rats. The therapeutic effect of the extract was investigated on adult male rats. Rats were divided into seven groups: control, TAA, Silymarin (SY), and VN high dose and low dose groups. Rats were administered with VN extrac...
