Liv-52 protection against beryllium toxicity in female albino rats.
    Reproductive toxicology (Elmsford, N.Y.), 1989, Volume: 3, Issue:4

    Toxic effects of beryllium salts on the reproductive organs of cyclic adult female albino rats have been studied. An attempt was made to overcome these effects using an Ayurvedic medicine Liv-52 (Himalaya Drug Co., Bombay). Liv-52-primed rats (1 mL/rat/day for 15 days) were exposed to beryllium nitrate intravenously and were sacrificed at different time intervals. At autopsy ovary, uterus, cervix, and vagina were processed for biochemical and histopathologic examination. Histoarchitecture of the ovary, uterus, cervix, and vagina revealed severe necrotic changes with beryllium nitrate treatment. Tissue glycogen content and the activity of alkaline phosphatase were inhibited significantly after beryllium treatment. Total and esterified cholesterol levels increased significantly in these organs when exposed to beryllium salts. However, a significant improvement was observed in the biochemical parameters and histoarchitecture of these organs when beryllium was injected into Liv-52-primed animals.
