Ulcerative colitis is a most common form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) which mainly affect colon. The treatment of ulcerative colitis depends upon severity of the diseases. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of hydroalcoholic extract of dried fruits of Helicteres isora in dextran sulfate sodium induced ulcerative colitis in experimental wistar rats. In this study wistar rats of either sex were divided into five experimental groups, where control group recived only distilled water. Group 2 was negative control group which received 4% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) from drinking water between 15th to 21st day. Group 3 received low dose of hydroalcholic extract of Helicteres isora (HI) at a dose 100mg/kg orally along with 4% DSS from drinking water between from drinking water between 15th to 21st day. Group 4 received high dose of hydroalcholic extract of Helicteres isora (HI) at a dose 200mg/kg orally along with 4% DSS from drinking water between from drinking water between 15th to 21st day. In group 5 sulfasalazine was used as a standard drug at a dose 100mg/kg orally along with 4% DSS from drinking water between from drinking water between 15th to 21st day. Twenty four hours after treatment animals were sacrificed and further macroscopical, biochemical, histopathological evaluation was done and all the results were compare with control at p<0.05 significant value.

Taxifolin is a natural antioxidant polyphenol with various bioactivities and has many beneficial effects on human gut health. However, little is known of its function on colitis. In this study, the protective effects of taxifolin on colitis symptoms, inflammation, signaling pathways, and colon microbiota were investigated using dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis mice. Intriguingly, pre-administration of taxifolin alleviated the colitis symptoms and histological changes of the DSS-challenged mice. Supplementation of taxifolin significantly inhibited the secretions of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 and significantly increased the secretions of IL-10, secretory immunoglobulin A, superoxide dismutase, and immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG, and IgM) in DSS-induced colitis mice. In addition, the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB; p65 and IκBα) signaling was significantly suppressed by taxifolin supplementation. The expression of tight junction proteins (claudin-1 and occludin) was significantly increased by taxifolin. Moreover, 16S rDNA sequencing revealed that the DSS-induced changes of colon microbiota composition and microbial functions (amino acid metabolism and MAPK signaling) were restored by taxifolin, including the decreases of the abundances of Bacteroides, Clostridium ramosum, Clostridium saccharogumia, Sphingobacterium multivorum, and the ratio of Bacteroidetes/Firmicutes, and the increases of the abundances of Desulfovibrio C21 c20 and Gemmiger formicilis at species level. In conclusion, these results revealed that dietary taxifolin has a great potential to prevent colitis by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway, enhancing intestinal barrier, and modulating gut microbiota.
