TY - JOUR AU - Saha, Priyanka AU - Yadav, Neha AU - Kumari, Suruchi AU - Raipat, Bharti Singh AU - Sinha, M.P PY - 2013/06/17 Y2 - 2025/09/23 TI - Hormonal profile and haematological parameters of male wistar albino rats treated with methanloic extract of Parthenium hysterophorus L. JF - Journal of Experimental Sciences JA - JES VL - 4 IS - 1 SE - Articles DO - UR - https://www.updatepublishing.com/journal/index.php/jes/article/view/1973 SP - 1-5 AB - <p>Changes in hormonal and haematological level were assessed in male wistar albino rats treated with methanolic extract of Parthenium hysterophorus L. The result showed that methanolic extract treatment caused a significant (p &lt; 0.01) reduction of 20 % and 40% in total RBC count (6.25 &plusmn; 0.025 to 5 &plusmn; 0.5 x 106/&micro;L) and haemoglobin (17.1 &plusmn; 0.1892 to 10.2 &plusmn; 0.79 g / dL) respectively in treated rats over control. Unlike haematological parameters, hormonal profile showed a significant increase of 40% (p &lt; 0.05), 200% (p &lt; 0.01), 100% (p &lt; 0.01) and 45.08% (p &lt; 0.001) in follicle stimulating hormone, leutinizing hormone, prolactin and testosterone respectively. The reduction of blood parameters is due to less haemopoiesis or induction of anemia. The increase in hormone level may be a cause of prostate cancer in wistar albino rats.</p> ER -
