Aqueous Leaf Extract of Protects Against Gentamicin-Induced Kidney Injury via Decreases in Renal Function, Inflammation, and Apoptosis Markers.

The effect of the aqueous extract of (AAI) on gentamicin (GEN)-induced kidney injury was investigated. The study involves 20 adult male Wistar rats (housed in four separate plastic cages) such that graded dosages of AAI were administered to the experimental group for 14 days per oral (PO) before exposure to GEN toxicity (100 mg/kg) for 1 week. At the end of the study, comparisons of some markers of renal functions, antioxidant status, and inflammatory and apoptotic markers were made between the control, GEN, and AAI-pretreated groups at < .

Bioactive compounds from fermented leaf: Potent antibiotics against multidrug-resistant and .

Unlabelled: Antibiotic resistance microorganisms (ARMs), particularly gram-negative bacteria, pose a global health threat. The effects of fermentation on phytochemicals are numerous, and exploring this potential is the focus of drug development. The study investigated the role of fermentation in modifying leaf secondary metabolites as an effective antibiotic against .

Immune boosting and ameliorative properties of aqueous extract of Delile against MSG-induced genotoxicity: An and approach.

(VA) is popularly consumed as food and as medicine due to its nutritional and bioactive constituents. This study assessed the -genotoxic effect of aqueous leaf extract of VA against monosodium (MSG) -induced genotoxicity. Crude extraction and phytochemical analysis were done using standard methods.
