Objective:To evalueate hepatoprotective effects Feronia elephantum(F.elephantum)correa against thioacctamide(TA)induced liver necrosis in diabetic rats.Methods:Male wistar rats were made diabetic with alloxan(160 mg/kg)on day 0 of the study.They were intoxicated with hepatotoxicant(thioacetamide,300 mg/kg,ip)on day 9 of study to produce liver necrosis.Effects of 7 day daily once administration(day 2 to day 9)of EF(400 and 800 mg/kg,po)were evaluated on necorosis of liver in terms of mortality,liver volume,liver weight,serum aspartate aminotransferase(AST)and serum alanine transaminase(ALT),and histopathology of liver sections(for signs of necorosis and inflammation)on day-9 of the study.Separate groups of rats with treated only with alloxan(DA control),thioacetamide(TA control)and both(TA+DA control)were maintained.Results:FE significantly lowered the mortality rate and showed improvement in liver function parameters in TA-induced diabetic rats without change in liver weight,volume and serum glucose levels.Conclusions:FE showed promising activity against TA-induced liver necorsis in diabetic rats and so might be useful for prevention of liver complications in DM.
