Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the nephroprotective and cardioprotective effects of ethanol extract of litchi leaf (LI) in two-kidney-one-clip (2K1C) rat model. HPLC analysis revealed the presence of several polyphenolic antioxidants in LI. Correspondingly, LI at 50–200 mg/kg reduced the level of oxidative stress markers (MDA, APOP, NO) and improved level of endogenous antioxidant enzymes (CAT, SOD) in 2K1C rats. Besides, LI caused significant...
