- The study assessed the effectiveness of Coriandrum sativum extract in reducing liver ischaemia reperfusion injury by examining both micro and biochemical changes in liver tissues.
- Various groups were created: control (sham), injury only, and treatment with the extract, with specific measurements for liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP) and histological changes.
- Results showed that treatment with Coriandrum sativum led to less tissue damage and lower liver enzyme levels, indicating its potential protective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects against liver injury.
