Antioxidant and Pulmonary Protective Potential of Fraxinus xanthoxyloides Bark Extract against CCl4-Induced Toxicity in Rats

Tahira Younis et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant and pulmonary protective potential of Fraxinus xanthoxyloides bark extract and its fractions. The highest total phenolics, flavonoids, and terpenoids contents were found in the methanol bark extract, ethyl acetate fraction, and chloroform fraction, respectively. The most potent antioxidant capacity was shown by the methanol bark extract and ethyl acetate fraction. The administration of carbon tetrachloride induced oxidative stress and lung tissue damage, but treatment with the bark extract restored these parameters to normal levels and protected the lung tissues.
