Abstract:
Objective] To explore the effect of Biejiajian oral Liquid (BOL) on the level of angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ) and angiotensin(1-7) [Ang(1-7)],and ratio of AngⅡ/Ang(1-7) in liver fibrosis rats. [Methods] Randomly divide male Wistar rats into blank group, model group, BOL groups of high dose and low dose, 10 in each. The model rats were injected with inactivated pig serum abdominally, 0.5mL for each, 2 times/w, for successive 8w. Other rats were injected with the same dosage and period of normal saline. After modeling, administer BOL 10g·kg-1 to low-dose groups rats, and 20g·kg-1 to high-dose group rats; give equal distilled water to blank and model groups, for successive 5 weeks of intragastric administration. The liver histopathology was examined by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) and Masson trichrome staining. Liver and spleen index were calculated. Levels of alanine transaminase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) in serum were assayed by automatic biochemistry detection instrument. Contents of hyaluronic acid(HA), laminin(LN), typeⅢprocollagen(PcⅢ) and type IV collagen(Ⅳ.C) in serum were detected by radioimmunoassay. AngⅡand Ang(1-7) levels were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. [Results] Compared with model group, the histological injury of liver in rats of BOL groups was relieved; serum levels of AST, ALT, HA, LN, PCⅢ and Ⅳ.C, and the content of AngⅡ in liver homogenate were decreased significantly than that of the model group. Ang(1-7) level was further increased, AngⅡ/Ang(1-7) ratio was decreased obviously in BOL groups. [Conclusion] BOL showed the protective function for hepatic fibrosis, the mechanisms of which may be associated with improvement of Ang(1-7) level, decrease of AngⅡlevel and the ratio of AngⅡand Ang(1-7).
