Hepatoprotective Activity of Leptadenia hastata (Asclepiadaceae) on Acetaminophen-Induced Toxicity in Mice: In Vivo Study and Characterization of Bioactive Compounds through Molecular Docking Approaches
Background and Objectives. Leptadenia hastata is a liana from the family of Asclepiadaceae used in tropical Africa to treat diabetes mellitus. In this study, we investigated its hepatoprotective mechanisms on acetaminophen- (APAP-) induced toxicity through in vivo and in silico approaches. Materials...
