Total protein and glycogen level in the liver of diabetic rats were significantly increased. Liver carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes were normalized. (31)
Neuropharmacological Effects / Leaves: Study evaluated the possible neuropharmacological effects of aqueous extract of B. tomentosa leaves. The extract at doses of 200na d400 mg/kg revealed anti-anxiety activity. CNS depressant activity was confirmed by spontaneous locomotor activity, forced swim test, and diazepam induced sleeping time in mice. Nootropic activity was confirmed by increase in inflexion ratio. The extract also showed significant effect on motor coordination and potentiated catalepsy after haloperidol administration. Overall, the extract demonstrated anxiolytic, depressant, nootropic, skeletal muscle relaxant properties and anti-psychotic activity. (32)
Nephroprotective Against Cisplatin-Induced Renal Damage: Although an important chemotherapeutic drug, cisplatin (CP) use is limited because of nephrotoxicity. This study evaluated the nephroprotective effect of B tomentosa against CP-induced renal damage in rats. Use of methanolic extract of B. tomentosa caused a significant increase in antioxidant enzymes including DOD, GSH, and CAT. The BT extract also significantly decreased lipid peroxidation (LPO), serum urea, and creatinine. Results suggest a potential role as a protective strategy against CP-induced nephrotoxicity. (33)
