Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of holly leaf extract on blood lipid regulating function and blood rheology in hyperlipi-demia rats to provide experimental basis for the development and application of holly leaf. Methods:The rats were fed with high-fat di-et for 4 weeks to establish the model of hyperlipidemia. The rats were randomly divided into the control group, the model group, the positive group, high-dose group (0.60 g·mL-1), medium-dose group (0.30 g·mL-1) and low-dose group (0.15 g·mL-1) of Holly leaf with gastric perfusion for 9 weeks. TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, AST, ALT, SOD and MDA in serum of the rats were deter-mined, and various indices of hemorheology were measured. Results:When compared with the model group, holly leaf extract at dif-ferent doses could decrease the content of TC, TG, LDL-C, ALT, AST, MDA and apo B in varying degrees, and increase the content of HDL-C, the SOD activity and lipoprotein levels in varying degrees at the end of the gastric perfusion, and the effects of high-dose of holly leaf were the most significant (P<0. 05,P<0. 01). Holly leaf extract at different doses could decrease plasma viscosity, whole blood viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index and hematocrit, and increase red blood cell deformability index, and the effects of high-dose group of holly leaf were the most significant (P<0. 05,P<0. 01). Conclusion:Holly leaf has obvious regulating effects on blood lipid function and blood rheology in hyperlipemia rats, which can reduce blood lipid levels.
