Biochemical evaluation and molecular docking assessment of the anti-inflammatory potential of leaf against ulcerative colitis.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammation of the colon that can progress to colorectal cancer if left untreated. No medication completely cures UC and natural products are sources of alternative approaches. This study aimed to determine the anti-inflammatory potential of leaf extract and fractions in a rat model of ulcerative colitis and to identify the active ingredients.
