Abstract:
Objective To explore the changes of nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) in the serum and intestine mucosal and the treatment of ulcerative colitis(UC) with Tanshinone.Methods Seventy-nine patients with UC were randomly divided into the treatment group(group A,n=40) and the routine treatment group(group B,n=39).Patients in the group A were given Tanshionon and routine treatment.Patients in group B were given routine treatment.The levels of NO and SOD were measured in all patients before and after the treatment.The clinical symptom,enteroscopy,and hospital day were compared in the patients of the two groups.Twenty normal healthy controls(group C) were involved in the study.Results The NO level in the serum and intestine mucosal was significantly increased and the SOD level was significantly decreased in the patients with UC compared with those of the controls(all P
