Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the parts of cabbage (Brassica oleracea, L.var capitata) on impaired liver function of injected rats with Carbon Tetrachloride (CCl4), and diabetes mellitus of injected rats with alloxan. Fifty six mature albino rats weight 150-170 g B.Wt each were used, and divided into 14 equal group, two were kept as a control (-ve) groups while the 6 groups injected s/c by Carbon Tetrachloride (CCl4) in paraffin oil 50% V/V (2ml/Kg. B.Wt) twice a week for two weeks to induce hepatopathy, and other 6 group injected by alloxan (150mg/kg) body weight to induce diabetes. The parts of cabbage (leaves, stem, roots,seeds and mix of them) were added at a percent of 7.5% from the basel diet. Body weight, feed efficiency ratio, feed intake,Serum liver function (ALT, AST,AST/ALT, and ALP), total protein, albumin, globulin, A/G ratio, total cholesterol, triglycerides, lipoprotein fraction (HDL, LDL, VLDL), AI, total biliruben, direct biliruben, indirect biliruben, glucose, kidney function (urea, uric acid and creatinine), antioxidant liver enzymes (SOD, GPX and CAT) and hestopathological changes of liver, heart, kidney, spleen and pancreas, have been evaluated to both diseases (heapatopathic & diabetes).The obtain results of hepatopathic and diabetic rats revealed that the parts of cabbage showed a significant increase in weight gain, food intake, food efficiency ratio, total protein, HDLc and antioxidant liver enzymes (GPX, SOD and CAT), but with significant decreases in the rest of the analyses referred to previously,as compared with control (+ve) groups. In conclusion, the parts of cabbage (leaves, stem, roots, seeds and mix) could be considered powerful nutraceutical therapeutic means for the treatment of hepatitis and diabetes in rats.
