Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of Maiqi-Jiangtang pill on the glycolipid level in type 2 diabetic ob/ob mice.Methods The 8-week old male ob/ob mice were randomly divided into Maiqi-Jiangtang pill high- (8 g/kg), medium- (4 g/kg), low- (2 g/kg) dose groups. All the mice orally adiministered with the drugs once a day for 10 weeks. The same week age normal C57BL/6J control mice and ob/ob model group mice were orally administered with the equal volume solvent. The body weight per week were recorded. The fasting blood-glucose (FBG) was measured by glycemic instrument. The content of TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C in serum, and TG and TC content in liver were determined by biochemical method. The liver index was calculated.Results Compared with ob/ob model group, there was no significant change in body weight of mice administered with Maiqi-Jiangtang pill for 10 weeks. Compared with the model group, the low-, medium- dose Maiqi-Jiangtang pill could significantly decrease the FBG (7.43 ± 1.71 mmol/L,7.84 ± 1.09 mmol/L vs.8.95 ± 0.96mmol/L), the high- dose Maiqi-Jiangtang pill could significantly reduce the TG (0.93 ± 0.16 mmol/L vs.1.18 ± 0.26 mmol/L) and LDL-C (2.10 ± 0.51 mmol/L vs.2.56 ± 0.44 mmol/L) content in serum of ob/ob mice (P<0.05), increase the HDL-C/LDL-C ratio (2.40 ± 0.39vs.1.96 ± 0.24) in serum (P<0.01), decrease the liver weight (3.52 ± 0.26 gvs. 3.98 ± 0.35 g) and the liver index (0.063 ± 0.004vs. 0.071 ± 0.006) (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the low dose Maiqi-Jiangtang pill could also significantly decrease the TG level (0.63 ± 0.25 mmol/gvs. 1.05 ± 0.67 mmol/g) in liver and significantly increase the HDL-C/LDL-C ratio (2.30 ± 0.44vs. 1.96 ± 0.24) in serum (P<0.05).Conclusions The Maiqi-Jiangtang pill can reduce lipid in serum and liver of ob/ob mice while it can decrease the blood glucose, which need to further study its mechanism.
