The present study serve to extend the growing number of earlier investigations on therapeutic products from freshwater and marine sources as potent antineoplastic agents and confirm that both squid ink extract and freshwater mussel extract of C. aegyptiaca decreased lipid peroxidation, improved antioxidant status, and thereby act as a potential therapeutic complement in the treatment of different pathologies that may be related to an imbalance of the cellular oxidoreductive status associated with liver injury following tumor inoculation.

Liver is the first organ to metabolize all foreign compounds and hence it is susceptible to many different diseases. Liver disorders attribute to its exposure to different xenobiotics, among them is the paracetamol drug. Xenobiotics mainly damage the liver by producing reactive oxygen species (ROS). Acetaminophen (paracetamol) is a widely used analgesic and antipyretic drug, it causes hepatotoxicity in experimental animals and humans at high doses. Most of the present drugs have severe side effects. Thus, the current trend in many therapies is the back to nature. Therefore, it is necessary...

Natural Products traditionally have played an important role in drug discovery and were the basis of most early medicines. Marine organisms are a wonderful source of biologically active natural products. The Sepia ink has been proved to be an alternative medicine and has a wide range of therapeutic applications. In our book we tried to discover the therapeutic activity of cuttlefish ink against the liver fibrosis.
