AbstractLiver plays a central role in the metabolism of drugs. Drug clearance and transformation exposes liver to toxic injury. Antitubercular drugs have been found to be hepatotoxic and potentially lead to drug-induced liver injury. Isoniazid is one of the most hepatotoxic first line antitubercular drugs. Conventional drugs used in the treatment of liver disease are often inadequate and a search for supplementation or alternative drugs for the treatment of hepatic damage is indispensible. Therefore our study aims to investigate the hepatoprotective potential of Vernonia Amygdalina Del (bitter leaf) extract against Isoniazid-induced liver injury in Swiss Albino Mice. Treatment of Mice orally with Vernonia Amygdalina Del extract at dose of 250mg/kg and 375 mg/kg significantly lowered (P<0.05) the serum level of liver enzymes in Isoniazid pretreated mice. The hepatoptotective activity of the extract found to be comparable with the standard drug, Silymarin (100 mg/kg, P.o.). Moreover, treatment with the extract significantly alleviated Isoniazid induced hepatic injury as supported by the photomicrographs of liver section of mice. The data shows aqueous Vernonia Amygdalina Del extract has a very promising hepatoprotective potential against isoniazid-induced liver injury.

Vitamin C is an essential dietary supplement that plays a vital role in battling health conditions. The antioxidant has positive effects on the functioning of the body. The purpose of this study is to investigate the outcome of varying concentrations of Vitamin C on the hematological parameters of Swiss Albino mice. Four albino mice were separated and accommodated in similar caging conditions. Three of them were orally administered with 250mg/kg, 500mg/kg, and 1000mg/kg Vitamin C powder, along with their diet. The fourth one was kept as control, in order to provide a standard value for future comparison. After 30 days of administration of the Vitamin C, the red blood cell count, the white blood cell count, the hemoglobin concentration, the platelet cell count, and the packed cell volume of the blood samples were tested.

Aim: This study was conducted to verify the hematological and histopathological outcome of cooked ethanol seed extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum in swiss albino mice infected with Plasmodium berghei (NK65). Study Design: Descriptive study. Methodology: Standard methods were conducted to determine the phyto-chemical profile of cooked T. conophorum seed ethanol extract, hematological, histopathological indices and biochemical assay. Mice were assembled into five groups (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) of seven each. The mice in group 4 were treated with a customary antimalarial drug (chloroquine as positive control) at a dose of 5 mg/kg body weight, while mice in groups 3, 2 and 1 was administered with increasing dosages (200, 400, 800 mg/kg body weight) of seed extracts for four consecutive days respectively. Results: The qualitative phytochemical screening of T. conophorum seed extract revealed the presence of bioactive components such as saponin, tannins, flavonoid, terpenoid. Saponin (16.82 mg/100 g) was the highest occurring phytochemical followed by terpenoid (10.39 mg/100 g), glycoside (5.9 mg/100 g), tannin (2.8 mg/100 g) and flavonoid (1.17 mg/100 g), while steroid only had a trace presence. Hematological parameters revealed mice in all groups do not possess significantly different mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV). Mice in group 5 (infected and not treated) demonstrated lowest values of hemoglobin, platelet, and packed cell volume with a significantly lower % eosin. There was considerable decrease in the levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase in group 5 compared to mice in groups 1, 2, and 3. Conclusion: Ameliorative effects of seed extract were observed on the liver and kidney of mice at dose levels (200 mg/kg) used, but the 400 mg/kg restored the kidney but had adverse effect on the liver. This study therefore shows that cooked T. conophorum is generally less effective and could not be employed for treatment of malaria.
