Abstract
This study aims to identify the curative effect of virgin coconut oil on ulcerative colitis(UC),the present study was carried (24) adult albino male rats Sprague –Dawley strain weighting 180 ±10g were classified into four groups,(6 rats each) the first group rats were fed on basal diet only control negative(-ve) group and three rat groups were injured of ulcerative colitisby intra colonic administration of acetic acid 4% given rectally by single dose ( 1 ml/ rat ) and reclassified into control positive (+ve) group (fed on basal diet only), group treated with (20 mg/kg b.w) of omeprazole drug and group treated with (2 ml per/ rat) daily of virgin coconut oil . The results revealed that, the control (+ve) group showed a significant decrease in final weight(FW) ,weight gain(WG) feed efficiency ratio (FER), organs weight of heart, kidney, and liver , catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione reduced (GSH), Glutathione reductase (GSR),Glutathione peroxidase (GPx(, glutathione-S-transferees (GST) and significant increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) , hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-K) and prostaglandin (PG2) compared with control (- ve) group. The virgin coconut oil group showed a significant increase in (FW),(WG),(FI),(FER),organ stomach,(CAT),(SOD),(GSH),(GSR (GPx), (GST) but significant decrease in (MDA),(H2O2),(CRP),(ILK), (PG2) compared with control (+ve) group . the study clearly showed that consumption virgin coconut oil has a role in treating rats with acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis. It can be recommended that virgin coconut oil should be consumed daily to reduce the incidence of ulcerative colitis.
