Abstract:
Objective To observe the protective effect of schisandrin and deoxyschisandrin on acute liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride(CCl4) in mice and to study its mechanism. Methods Mice were randomly divided into five groups: normal group(0. 5％ carboxymethylcellulose sodium,0. 5％ CMC-Na) ,model group (0. 5％ CMC-Na) ,control group(bicyclol 300mg·kg-1·d-1) , schisandrin group(schisandrin 400 mg·kg-1·d-1) ,and deoxyschisandrin group(deoxyschisandrin 400 mg·kg-1·d-1) ,with 10 mice in each group, intragastrically twice a day for 7 d. One hour after the last administration,except for normal group,the mice of other groups were intraperitoneally injected with 0. 3％ CCl4 peanut oil solution for reproduction of acute liver injury model in mice. The serum and liver tissues of mice of each group were collected. The serum levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer. The malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in liver tissue were measured by biochemical kits. Results The serum levels of ALT in normal group,model group,control group,schisandrin group,and deoxyschisandrin group were (30. 90 ± 3. 14) , (3986. 90 ± 78. 63) , (387. 00 ± 24. 39) , (1914. 70 ± 89. 35) , and(2142. 10 ± 98. 35) U·L-1,respectively; the serum levels of AST in the 5 groups were (191. 50 ± 18. 02) ,(2337. 70 ± 80. 34) ,(978. 10 ± 95. 65) ,(1525. 60 ± 96. 91) ,and (1405. 30 ± 92. 31) U·L-1,respectively; the MDA levels in liver tissue in the 5 groups were (3. 08 ± 0. 18) ,(8. 67 ± 0. 28) ,(5. 13 ± 0. 22) ,(6. 63 ± 0. 28) ,and (6. 18 ± 0. 34) μmol·g-1,respectively; the SOD levels in liver tissue in the 5 groups were (162. 42 ± 4. 03) ,(102. 86 ± 3. 55) ,(148. 78 ± 7. 57) ,(132. 83 ± 6. 42) ,and (138. 21 ± 4. 94) U·mg-1,respectively. Comparison between model group and normal group or between control group, schisandrin group,deoxyschisandrin group and model group, the differences of the factors were significant (all P < 0. 01). Conclusion Schisandrin and deoxyschisandrin have protective effects on acute liver injury induced by CCl4 in mice,and its mechanism is related to anti-oxidation.
