| Abstract | ||
| Background: Cancer is constituted as the most famous fatal disease among human-being. DMBA is a common carcinogen and immunosuppressant and experimentally used for the induction of mutations via the creation of DNA adducts. Aim: Evaluation of the therapeutic effect of Lagenaria siceraria on 9,10 dimethyl-1, 2-benzanthracene (DMBA)-induced changes. Materials and Methods: A total number of thirty adult female albino rats within average age 3 months classified into 3 groups as follow: Group1 is designated as control. Group 2 was subcutaneously injected with a single dose of DMBA (10 mg/ 100 g b. wt) and after 90 days, animals have received a daily injection of distilled water for 30 days. Group 3 was subcutaneously mice were injected with a single dose of DMBA and after 90 days, mice were received morning and night daily injection of Lagenaria siceraria (100 mg/ 100 g b.w) for 30 days. After scarifying the mice, ileum samples were taken and passed the histological examination, also Histochemical stains were done. Results: From the cell biological, histochemical, and histopathological points of view, the carcinogen DMBA has a highly stimulatory effect on the cellular activities, DNA synthesis, RNA synthesis, and cell proliferative in the normal epithelial cells lining villi of the ileum of female mice, while Lagenaria siceraria has a highly inhibitory effect on the volume of the nuclei, DNA synthesist, and the cell proliferation of the DMBA-induced cells lining villi of the ileum of female mice. Conclusion: Finally, it could be said that the carcinogen DMBA has a proliferative and/or possibly a carcinogenic effect on the ileum of female mice. Also, It could be concluded that Lagenaria siceraria could be offered an antiproliferative and/or possibly an anti-carcinogenic effect against DMBA. | ||
