Protective Effect of Cassava Leaf Extract on Gentamicin-Induced Hepatotoxity In Mice

Abstract: Abstract Gentamicin usage can cause the damage of liver structure and function. The basic mechanism inducing liver damage from gentamicin is lipid peroxidation in cell membrane and the suppresion of antioxidant defence system in liver. Antioxidant in cassava leaf such as vitamin C, carotene, flavonoid, dan mineral can protect liver from drug toxicity effect. This research aimed to determine hepatoprotective effect of cassava leaf through microscopic observation of liver histopathology slide of mice induc… Show more

“…The positive control group showed the highest results due to the administration of Gentamicin at a dose of 80 mg/kg BW for eight days without giving red ginger extract. Gentamicin causes liver cell damage which begins with the production of free radicals in the liver which cause oxidative stress [15,16]. Oxidative stress causes Gentamicin to resist phospholipid degradation which disrupts the integrity of lysosomal membranes which ends in enzyme leakage thereby increasing AST levels in the blood [17].…”

“…Allium cepa contain high flavonoid. Flavonoids from other plants are known to have antioxidant activity on various organs [8,11,12,13]. Previous research shows that phenolic compound and quercetin isolated from onion peel was 3 to 5 times higher than those from its edible part [14].…”
