Abstract
Objective: The aim of our current study is to evaluate the modulatory efficacy of combined therapy on xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes against oral cancer model. Methods: Buccal pouch carcinoma was induced in hamsters by painting with DMBA (0.5% in mineral oil) on the left buccal pouch three times a week for 10 weeks. Results: The results showed that depleted activities of phase II enzymes and significant elevation was observed in the levels of phase I enzymes (cytochrome P450 and b5) in DMBA group of buccal pouch. After supplementation with combination therapy significantly brought back the status to near normal. Conclusion: The data obtained in this study clearly indicate that amla fruit extract shows therapeuti effect against DMBA-induced oral carcinogenesis.
