Abstract
Synthesis of the original Schiff base CdCl2 (C14H21N3O2) compound (Schiff base complex) displays an extensive range of bioactivities and was predictably utilized to treat several syndromes. The goal of the existing experiment is to evaluate the gastroprotective effects of a novel Schiff base CdCl₂ (C14H21N3O2) compound in alcohol-induced gastric ulcers in rats by examining its antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory effects, and modulation of key molecular markers, including heat shock protein-70(HSP-70) and Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax) proteins. Five groups of rats were utilized in the current study. Control and model groups were orally administered10% Tween 20. The treated groups were orally administered 20 mg/kg omeprazole or Schiff base compound (25 or 50 mg/kg). One hour later, only the control group received oral 10% Tween 20, and the treated groups received oral (5 ml/cage) absolute alcohol. During the second hour, all rats were sacrificed. All treatedrats presented considerable improvementin alcohol-induced gastric injury recognizedby decreasing ulcer index and raising % of ulcer inhibition. Increased mucus and gastric pH content and decreasedulcerated portion,reduced or non-appearanceof edema, and leucocytes penetrated the subcutaneous layer. In stomach epithelium homogenate, the Schiff base compound obtainable significant upsurge superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) activities, considerable declining malondialdehyde (MDA) quantity. Moreover, the Schiff base compound raised the intensity of periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) stains gastric epithelium. Furthermore, the Schiff base compound formed up-regulated HSP-70 and down-regulated Bax proteins gastric epithelium Schiff base compound, reduced the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and improved the quantity of IL-10.Administering a high dose of 500 mg/kg Schiff base compound revealed the nontoxic nature of the compound in rats. Schiff base compound exhibited gastroprotective effectsattributed to its antioxidant nature, its capability to enhance mucus excretion, SOD and CAT, reduce MDA amount, up-regulate HSP-70 protein, down-regulate Bax protein, andinflammatory cytokines.
