Protective effect of chrysin on indomethacin induced gastric ulcer in rats: role of multi-pathway regulation.
    Biotechnic & histochemistry : official publication of the Biological Stain Commission, 2022, Volume: 97, Issue:7

    We investigated the potential gastroprotective effects of chrysin on indomethacin induced gastric ulcers in rats. We used six groups of animals: control; indomethacin (Indo); reference (Ulcuran®); indomethacin + 25 mg/kg chrysin (Indo + CHR25); indomethacin + 50 mg/kg chrysin (Indo + CHR50); indomethacin + 100 mg/kg chrysin (Indo + CHR100). All doses of chrysin were given orally to rats before indomethacin. Gastric lesions were examined macroscopically and microscopically. The effects of treatment with chrysin were assessed versus a single dose of 30 mg/kg Ulcuran® (generic ranitidine) as reference standard. We also investigated gastric mucosal superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT), malonaldehyde (MDA) and arginase activities, and COX-2, PGE

In vivo cellular and molecular gastroprotective mechanisms of chrysin; Emphasis on oxidative stress, inflammation and angiogenesis.
    European journal of pharmacology, 2018, Jan-05, Volume: 818

    Gastric ulcer is one of the major gastrointestinal disorders affecting people worldwide. Despite medical advances, management of gastric ulcer and its complications remains a challenge facing medicine nowadays. In addition, currently available medicines exhibit limited efficacy and several side effects. In the current study, the potential protective effects of chrysin -naturally occurring flavonoid - were tested against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer model in rats. It was found that chrysin in both doses; 50 and 100mg/kg were effective in promoting mucus secretion and preventing the rise in ulcer and lesion indices, acid production and histologic changes induced by indomethacin. During investigation of the possible underlying mechanisms, chrysin significantly attenuated indomethacin-induced oxidative injury and inflammatory response. Also, chrysin activated peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-ɣ (PPAR-ɣ) leading to a phenotypic switch from pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages to the anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages that evidenced by the upregulated mRNA expression levels of PPAR-ɣ and M2 marker genes (Arg-1 and CD206) and down regulation of M1 marker genes (IL-6 and CCL3). Furthermore, chrysin promoted angiogenesis via increasing expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and cluster of differentiation-31 (CD31). Collectively, these findings indicate that chrysin possesses a potential protective effect against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer.
