Gastroprotective Effects of the Aqueous Extract from < em > Taraxacum officinale < /em > in Rats Using Ultrasound, Histology, and Biochemical Analysis

In conclusion, the gastroprotective effect of AETo involves reduction in oxidative stress and inflammatory injury and increase in mucin content. This study advances in the elucidation of mechanisms of gastric protection of T. officinale, contributes to the prospection of new molecules gastroprotective, and proposes the ultrasonographic analyses as a new gastroprotective assessment tool in preclinical studies.PMID:34970327 | PMC:PMC8714386 | DOI:10.1155/2021/8987232
