Abstract
Cayratia trifolia leaves contain polyphenols as a natural antioxidant that can dissolve in polar solvents. This study aims to evaluate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity of polar extracts (ethyl acetate and 70%-ethanol) were extracted sequentially from C. trifolia leaves on male rats induced by nitrobenzene. The extracts of C. trifolia leaves were given at a dose of 200 mg.Kg -1 BW. Silymarin as a reference was given at a dose of 28.78 mg.Kg -1 BW. The extracts and Silymarin were given orally once a day for 14 days. Rats that have received ethanol extract of C. trifolia leaves showed a significant decrease in Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), Aspartate Transaminase (AST), Alanine Transaminase (ALT), total bilirubin, and direct bilirubin. A significant decrease in malondialdehyde (MDA) levels also occurred in the rats. On histopathological examination, the extract also showed a protective effect on rat liver. Thus, it can be concluded that the sequentially extracted ethanolic extract of C. trifolia leaves has the potential as a source of natural hepatoprotective and antioxidant activity.

期刊介绍:
The Pharmaceutical Sciences Asia (PSA) journal is a double-blinded peer-reviewed journal in English published quarterly, by the Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahidol University, Thailand. The PSA journal is formerly known as Mahidol University Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and committed to the timely publication of innovative articles and reviews. This journal is available in both printed and electronic formats. The PSA journal aims at establishing a publishing house that is open to all. It aims to disseminate knowledge; provide a learned reference in the field; and establish channels of communication between academic and research expert, policy makers and executives in industry and investment institutions. The journal publishes research articles, review articles, and scientific commentaries on all aspects of the pharmaceutical sciences and multidisciplinary field in health professions and medicine. More specifically, the journal publishes research on all areas of pharmaceutical sciences and related disciplines: Clinical Pharmacy Drug Synthesis and Discovery Targeted-Drug Delivery Pharmaceutics Biopharmaceutical Sciences Phytopharmaceutical Sciences Pharmacology and Toxicology Pharmaceutical Chemistry Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods Natural Products Social, Economic, and Administrative Pharmacy Clinical Drug Evaluation and Drug Policy Making Antimicrobials, Resistance and Infection Control Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics.
