Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of Chrysanthemum Flos on blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR)and evaluate its antioxidant activity in vitro and in vivo.Methods SHR were randomly divided into model,control and experimental-L,-H groups with 10 rats per group,and 10 WKY rats as blank group.Experimental-H,-L groups were given 2.10 and 0.525 g·kg-1 Chrysanthemum Flos extract by gavage;control group received 5.25 mg·kg-1 losartan by gavage;blank and model groups were given the same volume of 0.9％NaCl solution by gavage.Rats in each group were gavaged once a day for 8 weeks.After 8 weeks of continuous intragastric administration,the systolic blood pressure(SBP)and diastolic blood pressure(DBP)were observed.The contents of catalase(CAT),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in serum were measured with kit colorimetry method.The in vitro free radical scavenging rates of Chrysanthemum Flos extract were detected by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)and 2,2'-amino-di(2-ethyl-benzothiazoline sulphonic acid-6)ammonium salt(ABTS)methods.Results The SBP of blank,model,control and experimental-H,-L groups were(132.00±2.45),(204.00±4.55),(171.00±2.16),(181.00±3.74)and(184.67±4.78)mmHg;the DBP were(73.33±4.03),(175.67±3.40),(120.33±0.94),(125.33±2.87)and(125.67±2.36)mmHg;the contents of serum CAT were(9.24±3.99),(8.40±2.98),(9.24±2.42),(8.59±2.70)and(8.49±1.47)U·mL-1;the contents of serum SOD were(122.40±12.30),(75.30±28.37),(125.39±31.35),(110.92±26.14)and(103.37±22.31)U·mL-1;the contents of serum GSH were(117.93±10.18),(78.29±23.68),(118.57±26.08),(109.89±20.52)and(98.73±14.71)U·mL-1;the contents of serum MDA were(8.36±2.08),(8.45±3.38),(8.22±3.04),(7.09±3.21)and(7.24±3.32)nmol·L 1,respectively.Compared with model group,the differences of above indicators in control group and experimental-H,-L groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Chrysanthemum Flos extract showed certain free radical scavenging ability in vitro.The highest scavenging rates of DPPH and ABTS were 90.29％and 92.67％,respectively.Conclusion Chrysanthemum Flos extract had good antihypertensive activity.The antioxidation ability might be its antihypertensive mechanisms.
