Abstract
The focus of the paper is to determine hepatoprotective properties of polyphenolic extracts of the fruits of cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccus L.), blueberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.), cranberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.) and blueberry (Vaccinium uliginosum L.). The study was conducted on 70 male Wistar rats aged 7-8 months, weighing 210-230 g. Liver fibrosis was modeled by toxic damage with a solution of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) – 0.2 ml/100g of body weight in refined olive oil (1:1). It has been proven that polyphenolic extracts of blueberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) (most pronounced), blueberry (Vaccinium uliginosum L.), cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccus L.) and cranberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.) (least pronounced) can reduce the severity of liver damage caused by CCl4. The obtained data suggest that the studied extracts can be used as correcting agents for fibrosis.
