| Abstract | In traditional Korean medicine, Ulmus macrocarpa Hance is a frequently used herb in South Korea for treating intestinal disorders such as colitis. This study investigated whether water extract of Ulmus macrocarpa Hance (UME) could show a protective action on 2 different mice models of experimental colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) and 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS), which have been widely used as inflammatory bowel disease models. Colitis was induced by DSS and TNBS in balb/c mice, respectively. UME at doses of 100, 300, or 1000 mg/kg was orally administered twice a day for 7 d in the DSS model and at doses of 300 or 1000 mg/kg for 3 d in the TNBS model. The body weight of the mice and clinical score were measured daily. Colon length and macroscopic score were assessed on day 7 in the DSS model and on day 3 in the TNBS model. In the DSS model, UME inhibited shortening of colon length and macroscopic damages of the colon, and showed improvement of clinical score, however it did not inhibit weight loss. In the TNBS model, UME did not inhibit weight loss and shortening of colon length. The current results indicate that UME ameliorates DSS-induced colitis in mice similar to human ulcerative colitis, not TNBS-induced colitis in mice similar to human Crohn’s disease. Further investigations to unveil the exact mechanisms are needed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
