ABSTRACT
Indigofera suffruticosa is a plant generally used to treat infectious and inflammatory processes. This work aims to evaluate the histopathological changes in the liver tissue of mice with Sarcoma 180 after subchronic treatment with aqueous extract obtained by infusion and maceration of Indigofera suffruticosa leaves. Male mice were divided into four groups of six animals G1, G2 and G3 patients with Sarcoma 180 and Sarcoma 180 G4 without sarcoma. G1 and G2 were treated with infusion mashing respectively (50 mg/kg ip); G3 and G4 controls received saline (15 ml/kg ip). The histopathological and morphometric analysis of liver tissue after subchronic treatment with aqueous extracts by infusion and maceration of the groups G1, G2 and G4 were similar and showed no degraded areas or leukocyte infiltration compared to G3, which shows a marked destruction of liver architecture. The results showed that after subchronic treatment with the aqueous extract of leaves Indigofera Suffruticosa obtained by infusion and maceration, the hepatic architecture was preserved, suggesting its use as an alternative hepatoprotective agent.
RESUMEN
Indigofera suffruticosa es una planta utilizada para tratar procesos infecciosos e inflamatorios. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo evaluar los cambios histopatológicos en el tejido del hígado de ratones con sarcoma 180 después del tratamiento subcrónica con el extracto acuoso obtenido por infusión y maceración de las hojas de Indigofera suffruticosa. Los ratones machos fueron divididos en cuatro grupos de seis animales pacientes G1 , G2 y G3 con Sarcoma 180 y G4 sin Sarcoma. G1 y G2 fueron tratados con infusión de maceración respectivamente (50mg/kg.ip); Controles G3 y G4 recibieron solución salina (15 ml/kg.ip). El análisis histopatológico y morfométrico de tejido hepático después de un tratamiento subcrónico con extractos acuosos por infusión y la maceración de los grupos G1, G2 y G4 fueron similares y no mostraron áreas degradadas o la infiltración de leucocitos en comparación a G3, que muestra una marcada destrucción de la arquitectura del hígado. Los resultados mostraron que después de un tratamiento subcrónico con el extracto acuoso de hojas de Indigofera suffruticosa obtenidos por infusión y la maceración, se conservó la arquitectura hepática, lo que sugiere su uso como una alternativa de agente hepatoprotector.
