چکیده مقاله:
Background and Aim: Saffron and its active components carotenoids display antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic activities. The purpose of this study was to evaluate histological effectiveness of short- and long- term consumption of Crocus sativus L. (Saffron) stigma total extract on colitis index in experimental model of Ulcerative Colitis(UC) in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Methods: Thirty-two male rats were divided into four groups as saffron , colitis, short term treatment (after acetic acid induced-colitis rats treated with 150 ppm for 6 days); long term treatment (saffron were gavaged 21 days before colitis induction and continued for 6 days after acetic acid induced-colitis). The protective dose of saffron (150 mg/kg) in this study was selected according to our previous work in which azoxymethane/DSS induced colitis-associated colorectal carcinogenesis model. The daily weight changes, colon macroscopic and microscopic histological changes were evaluated. Results: saffron (150 ppm) caused a significant reduction in Colitis Index , Inflammation Severity and Crypt damage severity (p<0.001) in both short term and long term treatment group and a significant differences were detected between these two group when compared with colitis group Conclusion: Saffron may be considered as the treatment and preventive choice for Ulcerative Colitis.
