Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effects of ethanol-extract of Halenia elliptica D. Don on chemical hepatic injury in mice. Methods Mouse models of chemical hepatic injury were induced by intraperitoneal injection of 0.12 %CCL4. Extract of Halenia elliptica D. Don by alcohol was administered,and serum ALT,AST activities and liver glycogen level were measured in mice. Results Compared with the models,the enzyme activities of ALT and AST were significantly reduced and the content of liver glycogen was significantly increased in the ethanol-ex tract of Halenia elliptica groups. Conclusion It is indicated that ethanol-extract of Halenia elliptica D. Don has an effect in protecting the liver.
