Abstract
The in vivo genotoxic activity of the aerial part and root methanol extracts of Lysimachia vulgaris L. and ability to protect DNA from ethyl methanesulfonate- induced DNA damage was studied using comet assays in Drosophila melanogaster. Results revealed no significant differences in mean genetic damage index between exposure groups (20, 40, 80 mg mL-1 of Drosophila food) and negative control, indicating a non-genotoxic effect. Combined treatment of extracts and ethyl methanesulfonate showed a significant reduction in DNA damage with a percentage of reduction above 80. These findings suggest that the methanolic extract of L. vulgaris could be used as a natural agent in the prevention of diseases associated with DNA damage.
