Histologic and Biochemical Effects of Plectranthus ornatus on the Heart and Lungs of Dexamethasone Induced Hypertension

LVLawrence A VictoryADAba T DavidNRNweke Ruth

Key Points

  • The central aim is to evaluate the effects of Plectranthus ornatus on the heart and lungs under dexamethasone-induced hypertension.
  • Induced hypertension using dexamethasone in an animal model.
  • Administered Plectranthus ornatus extract.
  • Performed histologic and biochemical assessments of heart and lung tissues.
  • Plectranthus ornatus showed protective histologic changes in heart tissues.
  • Significant biochemical improvements were observed in lung tissues.
  • The extract mitigated some adverse effects of dexamethasone-induce hypertension.
