Obesity is a major public health concern characterized by excessive body fat, which increases the risk of numerous health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and certain cancers. Addressing obesity is crucial for improving overall health and well-being. In this study, thirty female Wistar rats, weighing between 190 and 200 g, were utilized to investigate the effects of Ficus exasperata on olanzapine-induced obesity. After a two-week acclimatization period, obesity was induced in the designated group using olanzapine (4 mg/kg) via oral gavage for 28 days. The rat

Abstract:
Ficus exasperata has been used to treat ulcer, diabetes, fever, and a variety of stress-related disorders. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose is the most common cause of drug-induced acute liver injury. In this study, we evaluated the hepatoprotective effect and antioxidant capacity of ethanolic extract of F. exasperata (EFE) on acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity in albino rats. Rats were pretreated with EFE (150, 250, 500 mg/kg) and thereafter received 250 mg/kg APA intraperitoneally (i.p.). The normal control group received distilled water, while the negative control group received 250 mg/kg AP

Soybean is affected by a wide range of diseases, many of which are seed-borne. In vitro and in vivo studies were conducted on the control of Fusarium oxysporium the causal pathogen of soybean seed rot using three plant leaf extracts. Laboratory experiments were conducted with aqueous extracts of air dried leaves of Ficus exasperata, Jatropha curcas, and Mangifera indica and a synthetic fungicide Mancozeb. Using the poisoned food technique, various concentrations (20, 40, and 60%) of the leaf extracts and Mancozeb (0.002%) utilized inhibited the mycelial growth of the pathogens in vitro. Effect

Abstract:
Trypanosomosis is one of the tropical diseases in which new and better drugs are needed. Effective treatment for African trypanosomosis is beset with problems of drug resistance and toxicity. In this study acute toxicity and in vitro antitrypanosomal activity of the methanolic leaves extract of Ficus exasperata were investigated. The acute toxicity study was conducted in two phases. Doses of 10, 100 and 1000 mg/kg were administered to 3 groups of 3 mice each at the initial phase, while doses of 600, 1,000, 1,600 and 2,900 were administered to 4 groups of 1 mouse each at the final phase.
