Objective To investigate the effects of anticancer bioactive fraction AMH-T of lichen on blood routine,organ coefficient and organ morphology by canying out short-term repeated dose toxicity test in rat so as to provide evidence for the development of anticancer drugs.Methods The nude mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:DDP group,DMSO group,and three AMH-T groups with the dosage of 50mg/kg,100mg/kg,and 200 mg/kg respectively.The weights of the mice were recorded every four days.At the end of the experiment,automatic biochemical analyzer and blood cell analyzer were applied to detect the serum biochemical indicators and blood routine indexes.The mice were dissected to observe the pathological changes in main organs.Heart,liver,spleen,kidney and testicle were weighed for organ coefficient calculation.Results In short-term repeated dose toxicity test,AMH-T significantly increased blood ALT and AST levels (P＜0.01) and significant change was found in other blood biochemical indexes and blood routine indexes.AMH-T had no obvious effect on weight,development of heart,liver,spleen,kidney and testicle.Conclusion When subcutaneous injection is performed,AMH-T shows hepatotoxicity,but it shows no toxicity on bone marrow hematopoietic function.

Objective To provide safety reference for the development of anti-cancer drugs by evaluating thetoxicological safety of the anticancer bioactive fraction AMH-T of lichen through the understanding of its poisonous nature and the intensity.Methods Acute toxicity test,bone marrow micronucleus test in mice,sperm malformation test in rats,Ames test and short-term repeat drug test in mice were conducted.Results Male mice were injected LD50 of 147 mg/kg and female mice 171 mg/kg.Conclusion Injection of AMH-T has acute toxicity and liver toxicity,but has no genetic toxicity.
