AAhas long been used as customary herbal medicine in world for the treatment of gastric pain, cardiacstimulation, improvement of memory and for the restoration of declined mental function. The aimof present study was to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of AA on some factors ref lecting thedevelopment of oxidative toxic stress in plasma.Methods: Twenty male rats were equally divided in to ۴ groups (۵ rats each). Group I actedas control (received normal salin). Treatment groups were II, III and IV which were givenArtemisia ۱۰, ۵۰ and ۱۰۰ mg/kg/day respectively only by gavage for ۲۴ hours. After treatment,blood specimens were collected. Liver enzymes such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST) andalanine aminotransferase (ALT) with total antioxidant power (TAP) and total thiol groups (TTG)concentrations were measured.Results: Levels of ALT, AST and TTG were decreased in the group II compared to the control(group I). ALT and AST in ۵۰ mg/kg group was observed compared with control group. Also, TTGincreased in Artemisia ۵۰ mg/kg group compared to control group.Conclusion: Results suggests that alcoholic extract of Artemisia can ameliorate liver toxicity inrats through reducing the serum levels of ALT, AST, and oxidative damage.کلیدواژه ها
