Gastric Antiulcerogenic and Hypokinetic Activities of Terminalia fagifolia Mart. & Zucc. (Combretaceae)
Figure 4
Effect of the oral administration of the ethanolic extract (TFEE) of the bark of Terminalia fagifolia (500 mg/kg) or its aqueous (TFAqF) and hydroalcoholic (TFHAF) partition fractions (250 mg/kg), carbenoxolone (Carb, 100 mg/kg), or N-acetylcysteine (NAC, 500 mg/kg) on the gastric wall mucus (a) and on the nonprotein sulfhydryl (NP-SH) group content (b) in female rats orally treated with absolute ethanol. The data represent the mean ± S.E.M. of 8 animals/group. (ANOVA and Dunnett’s test) compared to SHAM (a), control group (b), or TFEE without ethanol treatment (c).
