ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the effect of Weishu Powder (WP) on acute liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl_4) in mice. 【Methods】 Fifty mice were randomized to normal control group (group A), model group (group B), bifendate pills group (group C), low-dose WP group (group D) and high-dose WP group (group E). The mice in the above groups were fed with the corresponding drugs by gastric infusion for 7 days. On the 8th day of feeding, the mice except those in group A were given 0.5% CCl_4 peanut oil solution (10 mL/kg) by intraperitoneal injection. Sixteen hours later, liver weight, serum level of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), malondialdehyde (MDA) content and necrotic focus amount in the liver were observed. 【Results】 As compared with the normal group, liver weight, serum ALT level and necrotic focus amount were increased in model mice with CCl_4-induced acute liver injury (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the protective effect of Weishu Powder(WP) on hepatic injury induced by pentachloronitrobenzene(PCNB).Methods SD rats were randomized into 4 groups: normal group,model group,high-dosage WP group(in the dose of 2.50 g?kg-1 ?d-1) and low-dosage WP group(in the dose of 1.25 g?kg-1 ?d-1).Except the normal group,the other three groups received gastric gavage of PCNB 400 mg?kg-1 ?d-1 for 15 continuous days.After treatment,hepatic index was assayed,serum glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase(GOT) and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) levels and hepatic malondialdehyde(MDA) content were detected,and hepatic pathological examination was also carried out.Results Hepatic index,serum GOT and ALP levels,and hepatic MDA content were increased(P
