The Study of the Biologically Active Effect of the Rubia Tinctorum L. Plant on Rats with Experimental Kidney Stone Disease and Issues of Introduction

Since ancient times, madder dye (Rubia tinctorum L.) has been used in Uzbekistan to help alleviate stone deposits in organs. In the experiment we conducted, we aimed to demonstrate that this plant can prevent the occurrence of kidney stone disease in rats using an induced model of the disease. The kidney stone disease model in rats was created by administering ethylene glycol and ammonium chloride to the animals over a period of 10 days. The substances contained in the madder dye plant mitigated the effects of the substances used to induce the disease. According to the study results, simultaneous oral administration of the madder dye extract prevented the development of kidney stone disease in rats. The extract of Rubia tinctorum L. was found to be highly effective, showing a significant nephroprotective effect due to its specific and rich composition of terpenes and terpenoids.
