Increase in scientific investigations into indigenious wealth of
herbal medicines gives ample evidence of medicinal plants as
sources of drugs. Hepatocellular Carcinoma represents about 4% of
all malignancies worldwide.Plants contain chemopreventive agents
like phenolic compounds, nitrogen compounds and some other
endogenous metabolites, which are rich in antioxidant activity.
Thioacetamide, a model hepatotoxicant, initiates hepatocellular
necrosis and further hepatocarcinogenesis. Thioacetamide thus
produces oxidative stress on liver and causes hepatocellular
carcinoma. This oxidative stress can be reversed by the use of
antioxidants. Thus, the aim of this work was to evaluate the
anticancer activity of hydroalcoholic extract prepared from
Casearia esculenta, correlating the biochemical and histological
changes in thioacetamide induced hepatocellular carcinoma in female
Sprague Dawley rats. This research work should help shed some light
on cancer research and experimental model development for
hepatocellular carcinoma, and should be especially useful to
research scholars, scientists and students working on
hepatocellular carcinoma in experimental animals.
