Abstract
Terminalia bellirica and Glycyrrhiza glabra are renowned for their medicinal properties and rich antioxidant content. These plants have been integral to Ayurvedic medicine, treating various ailments for centuries. The present study investigated the nephroprotective effects of aqueous methanolic extracts of Terminalia bellirica and Glycyrrhiza glabra in a Cisplatin-induced rodent model. Both in vitro and in vivo analyses were conducted using established biomarkers of renal function, such as serum creatinine, serum urea, blood urea nitrogen, and glomerular filtration rate, to evaluate the nephroprotective effects. In addition to biochemical parameters, renal histopathology was examined through H&E staining, revealing a significant reduction in tubular and glomerular injury following the administration of the plant extracts.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
