Abstract:
Objective:To explore the inhibitory effects of seabuckthorn polysaccharide on hepatic oxidative stress in a mice model of acute liver injury induced by intraperitoneal injection of LPS and D -GalN and detect the expression on hepatic BCL-2/Bax and PPAR-γ.Methods: C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into six groups:control group ( CTRL), model group ( L/G), dexamethasone positive control group ( DXM ) , low ( SPL ) , medium ( SPM ) and high dose group ( SPH ) of seabuckthorn polysaccharide.Mice in the SPL,SPM and SPH group were gavaged with 50,100 and 200 mg/kg seabuckthorn polysaccharide for 14 days respectively.Acute liver injury model were established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS (10 μg/kg) and D-GalN (700 mg/kg) .Serum and liver samples were collected 4 h after model establishment .Serum levels of ALT and AST and the content of MDA were de-tected.Hepatic expression of SOD 2 BCL-2 and Bax was determined by Western blot and the expression of PPAR-γwas detected by im-munohistochemistry .Results:ALT and AST levels significantly increased in the model group and decreased dose-dependently after pre-treatment with seabuckthorn polysaccharide .The level of MDA in the model group increased significantly as compared with the control group and decreased in seabuckthorn polysaccharide groups ,while the level of SOD 2 decreased in the model group and recovered in sea-buckthorn polysaccharide groups .The expression of Bax decreased after pretreatment with seabuckthorn polysaccharide .There was no obvious effect on BCL-2 expression after sea buckthorn polysaccharide supplementation .The expression of PPAR-γreduced in the sea-buckthorn polysaccharide group as compared with the model group .Conclusion:Seabuckthorn polysaccharide protects against LPS /D-GalN-induced liver injury.The effect is associated with an upregulation of SOD 2 and downregulation of Bax .
