Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects and the mechanism of Danshen dripping pill(DSP,复方丹参滴丸) on the lipid metabolism in rats under insulin resistant(IR) status.Methods Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into normal control(n=8),IR control(n=8) and DSP groups(n=8).The rats were given dexamethasone(1 mg/kg) intramuscular injection once every other day to induce the IR status in the latter two groups,and the rats in DSP group were administered intra-gastrically with DSP 0.5 g/kg dissolved in normal saline once a day in the morning at 9 o′clock,and in the mean time,the rats in the normal and IR control groups were given intra-gastrically with equal amount of 0.9% NaCl. After 8 weeks of treatment,fasting blood glucose(FBG),fasting insulin(FINS),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),nitric oxide synthase(NOS),nitrogen monoxidum(NO),smooth muscle depth/wall thickness of thoracic aorta were detected,and serum adiponectin concentration was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),respectively.Results After IR model was successfully established,the insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR),TC and TG were increased,the serum NOS production and NO were decreased, smooth muscle depth/wall thickness of thoracic aorta was increased significantly,and the secretion of adiponectin concentration was decreased(P
