[Hepatoprotective effect of granules of the dry extract obtained from Gentianopsis barbata (Froel) Ma].
The granulated dry extract from Gentianopsis barbata (Froel) Ma in a dose of 0.1 g/kg produced a pronounced therapeutic effect in rats with experimental toxic (tetrachloromethane) and drug-induced (tetracycline) hepatitis. The gentian extract improved the bile production and secretion functions of liver, normalized the protein, lipid, and pigment metabolism, and increased the antioxidant system activity in the test animals.
