Study
Antioxidant and hepatoprotective activities of Ocimum basilicum Linn. and Trigonella foenum-graecum Linn. against H2O2 and CCL4 induced hepatotoxicity in goat liver.
Indian J Exp Biol. 2009 July. Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, K.M. College of Pharmacy, Uthangudi, Madurai, India.
Significant hepatoprotective effects were obtained by ethanolic extract of leaves of basil and T. foenum-graecum against liver damage induced by H2O2 and CCl4 as evidenced by decreased levels of antioxidant enzymes (enzymatic and non enzymatic). The extract also showed significant anti lipid peroxidation effects in vitro, besides exhibiting significant activity in superoxide radical and nitric oxide radical scavenging, indicating their potent antioxidant effects.
