Rats were randomly assigned to 5 consecutive groups consisting of 5 rats. Group 1, healthy rats, group 2 colitis but untreated rats. The rats in groups 3, 4, and 5 had colitis and received 160 mg / kg SR, 1mg/kg prednisolone and  HP extracts containing 0.3% hiperisine (250 uq / 300 mg) by oral gavage, respectively for seven days. At the end of the seventh day, the colons of the rats were removed and histopathological examination was performed. </span> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;line-height:200%;vertical-align:middle;"> <b> <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:200%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">Results </span> </b> <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:200%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;">: The histopathological results of the HPE group were statistically worst including the control group.
