Effect of methanol extract of Dicranopteris linearis against carbon tetrachloride-induced acute liver injury in rats

Background: Dicranopteris linearis (family Gleicheniaceae) has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities but no attempt has been made to study its hepatoprotective potential. The aim of the present study was to determine the hepatoprotective effect of methanol extracts of...
