Effect of iron chelating drug, Deferiprone and the water extract of green tea in the treatment of iron overload in local rabbits

The current study was designed to and compare the effect of iron chelating action green tea (Camellia sinensis) Aqueous extract at a concentration 100 mg / 1 kg compared with oral medicine , Deferiprone used remove from body. 25 body weight . some biochemical variables associated overload. Ferrous sulphate, (tablets200mg) raise proportion in laboratory animals. animals (rabbits weighing .to 1.5 kg) were given 10 weight,The treated groups divided into four (five rabbits per group). included control group without treatment any substance. second only third tea. fourth DeferiproneThe lasted for one month then starved. blood sample withdrawn according usual methods. determination hepcidin, total binding capacity, ferritin, serum ,Laboratory results showed significant increase (P ≤ 0.01) concentrations hepecidin decrease groupAs there groups, while did not differ significantly TIBC, group.
