Abstract

Background and aim: The protective effects of aqueous extract of Pistacia lentiscus leaves (AELPL) against gastric and duodenal ulcers induced by alcohol oral gavage administration in Wistar rats were investigated in this study.

Methods: The rats were divided into six groups control, ethanol single, ethanol + AEPL (25-50-100) and famotidine + ethanol.

Results: HPLC-MS analysis allowed the identification of numerous phenolic compounds in P. lentiscus leaves such as flavonoids (isoquercetin and luteolin), flavonols (catechin, rutin and kaempferol), phenolic acids (ellagic and dicaffeoylquinic) and tannins. Ethanol administration induced significant gastric and duodenal ulcerative lesions, while AELPL pretreatment (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg) provided a dose-dependent mucosal protection comparable to famotidine, a widely used drug for the treatment of gastric ulcers. AELPL like famotidine also restored gastric pH and volume, counteracting ethanol-induced acidity. Biochemical analyses demonstrated that AELPL like famotidine mitigated oxidative stress by reducing lipid peroxidation, carbonylated proteins and hydrogen peroxide levels, whereas it restored non-protein thiols content in the stomach, duodenum and plasma in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, AELPL restored antioxidant enzyme activities including catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione-S-transferase. AELPL also reduced ethanol-induced increase in free iron, ionized calcium and interleukin-6 levels, indicating its anti-inflammatory potential.

Conclusion: These findings suggest that AELPL exhibits gastroduodenal protective effects against ethanol-induced damage, with efficacy comparable to famotidine. Protective mechanisms likely involve modulation of oxidative stress and inflammation, supporting AELPL's potential as a therapeutic agent for gastroduodenal injuries.

黄连木叶提取物对乙醇性大鼠胃十二指肠溃疡的保护作用。
背景与目的:研究黄连叶水提物(AELPL)对Wistar大鼠酒精灌胃引起的胃溃疡和十二指肠溃疡的保护作用。方法:将大鼠分为对照组、单乙醇组、乙醇+ AEPL(25-50-100)组和法莫替丁+乙醇组。结果:高效液相色谱-质谱分析鉴定出香菇叶中含有多种酚类化合物,如黄酮类化合物(异槲皮素和木犀草素)、黄酮醇类化合物(儿茶素、芦丁和山奈酚)、酚酸类化合物(鞣花酸和二咖啡酰奎宁)和单宁。乙醇给药可引起明显的胃和十二指肠溃疡病变,而AELPL预处理(25、50和100 mg/kg)可提供与法莫替丁(一种广泛用于治疗胃溃疡的药物)相当的剂量依赖性粘膜保护。与法莫替丁一样,AELPL也能恢复胃pH值和胃容量,抵消乙醇引起的酸性。生化分析表明,AELPL和法莫替丁一样,通过降低脂质过氧化、羰基化蛋白和过氧化氢水平来减轻氧化应激,而AELPL则以剂量依赖的方式恢复胃、十二指肠和血浆中的非蛋白硫醇含量。此外,AELPL还能恢复过氧化氢酶、超氧化物歧化酶、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶和谷胱甘肽s -转移酶等抗氧化酶的活性。AELPL还能降低乙醇诱导的游离铁、离子钙和白细胞介素-6水平的升高,表明其抗炎潜力。结论:AELPL对乙醇诱导的胃十二指肠损伤具有保护作用,其效果与法莫替丁相当。保护机制可能涉及氧化应激和炎症的调节,支持AELPL作为胃十二指肠损伤治疗剂的潜力。

期刊介绍: The journal Biomarkers brings together all aspects of the rapidly growing field of biomarker research, encompassing their various uses and applications in one essential source. Biomarkers provides a vital forum for the exchange of ideas and concepts in all areas of biomarker research. High quality papers in four main areas are accepted and manuscripts describing novel biomarkers and their subsequent validation are especially encouraged: • Biomarkers of disease • Biomarkers of exposure • Biomarkers of response • Biomarkers of susceptibility Manuscripts can describe biomarkers measured in humans or other animals in vivo or in vitro. Biomarkers will consider publishing negative data from studies of biomarkers of susceptibility in human populations.
