Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To elucidate the efficacy and mechanism of Hugan tablets in hepatoprotective effects from perspective of metabolic pathways. METHODS:36 male rats were randomly divided into normal group (0.5%sodium carboxymethyl cellu-lose),model group(0.5%sodium carboxymethyl cellulose)and Hugan tablets group(1.7 g/kg),12 in each group,intragastrically administrated once a day,for 9 d. After 1 h of last administration,rats in model group and Hugan tablets group were intraperitone-ally injected 50%CCl4 peanut oil solution 1 mL/kg to induce liver injury. After 24 h of modeling,malondialdehyde(MDA),super-oxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)levels in liver tissue of rats were detected. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1H-NMR)metabolomics technique was adopted to establish the serum and liver metabolite profiles of rats,and the ef-fects of Hugan tablets on changes of metabolic profile and potential biomarkers in serum and liver of rats with CCl4-induced acute liver injury were analyzed. RESULTS:Compared with normal group,MDA level in liver tissue of rats in model group was signifi-cantly increased(P<0.05),SOD and GSH-Px levels were significantly reduced(P<0.05). Both body physiology and material me-tabolism of rats were obviously changed,and levels of 11 metabolic potential biomarkers in serum and 14 metabolic potential bio-markers in liver were significantly increased/decreased (P<0.05). Compared with model group,MDA level in liver tissue in Hugan tablets group was significantly reduced(P<0.05),SOD and GSH-Px levels were significantly increased(P<0.05). Serum and liver metabolism tended to be normal,6 metabolic potential biomarkers(isoleucine,leucine,3-hydroxybutyrate,acetone,ace-toacetate,choline) in serum and 8 metabolic potential biomarkers (3-hydroxybutyrate,alanine,glutamate,pyruvate,succinate, choline,lactate,glucose)in liver got significant callback(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The hepatoprotective mechanism of Hugan tablets may be associated with antioxidative stress and regula-tion of lipid metabolism,glucose metabolism and amino acid metabolism.
