Abstract:
Objective: To study the protective effect of Xiaoyao Tablet(XYT)(Radix Bupleuri, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Poria, Radix Glycyrrhizae, Herba Menthae, Roasted ginger) on liver. Methods: Using the acute hepatic injury model induced by Tetrachloride and D-galactosamine (CD-GaIN) in rats or mice, we observed the influence of XYT on ALT and AST level in the serum, MDA level and glutathione-s-transferase(GST) activity in the liver homogenates. The pain-killing effect was tested by body twisting model induced by glacial acetic acid and by hot plate model in mice. Results: The XYT reduced the serum ALT level significantly in the acute hepatic injury model in rats and mice. In the CCl 4 reduced acute hepatic injury mice model, XYT decreased the MDA level and increased the GST activity in liver significantly, also it reduced the MDA level in the serum. The XYT reduced twisting number in mice induced by glacial acetic acid. In the hot plate test, the pain threshold was increased. Conclusion: The drug has the similar hepatoprotective function to Xiaoyao Pills.
