Description
Summary:Over-consumption of alcohol leads to many side-effects such as malnutrition, liver disease, and neuronal disorders and many investigators have tried to identify methods for preventing the side-effects of drinking. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of the beverage contained green tea catechins (GTC) on the alcohol administered rats. We observed that blood alcohol concentration level decreased significantly in plasma. GTC (200 mg/kg) also reduced the aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level of the intoxicated rats. These results suggest that GTC may be useful for the prevention and therapy of hepatotoxic pathogenesis. KCI Citation Count: 3
