| Abstract | ||
| In vitro experiments were designed to investigate the role of aqueous extract of Rosmari nusofficinalisin the inhibition of genotoxic effect of methotrexate (MTX) in human lymphocyte. Mitotic index MI, chromosomal Aberation CA used us cytogenetic tests to detect the inhibition of genotoxic effect of Methotrexate using two concentration. The results showed that the aqueous extract of Rosmari nusofficinalis inhibited the genotoxic effect of Methotrexate in human lymphocyte. As well as the exposure of cells to aqueous extract before expose to Methotrexate T1 had a high inhibitory efficiency comparing with the combined exposureto the extract & Methotrexate together T2 and the exposure to the Methotrexate before extract. According to our obtained results it could be the aqueous extract of Rosmari nusofficinalis considereds as a antimutagene agent (Desmutagen) in first place and as a antimutagene agent (Bioantimutagene) in second place. | ||
