Ethanol extract of Cardiospermum halicacabum Linn. (Sapindaceae), in a concentration dependant manner (200-600mg/kg) inhibited gastric ulcers induced by oral administration of absolute ethanol. Further, the extract administration to rats resulted in an increase in levels of gastric glutathione and a
In this study we investigated the antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic of an ethanolic leaf extract of Cardiospermum halicacabum (CHE) in plasma and tissues of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. The plasma and tissue concentrations of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and lipid
The effect of a methanolic extract of Cardiospermum halicacabum L was studied against cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced toxicity in mice. Administration of CTX (25 mg/kg b.wt, i.p.) for 10 days produced significant myelosuppression as evidenced by a decreased WBC count and bone marrow cellularity.
A plant regeneration protocol was devised for Cardiospermum halicacabum by means of aseptically extracted 7 days old hypocotyls forming adventitious shoots on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium harmonized with 0.7 μM thidiazuron (TDZ) producing a maximum of 18.20 ± 0.98 number of shoots in 94% cultures
OBJECTIVE
Cardiospermum halicacabum (CH) has been used in Chinese medicine for a long time. However, its fingerprint chromatogram, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effects and mechanism are still needed to be explored. Therefore, the aims of this study investigated the antioxidant and
