ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effecet of oxidized low-density lipoprotein(Ox-LDL) on endothelium-dependent relaxation and mechanism of susceptibility to atherosclerosis(AS) in hyperlipdemic male patients.(Methods)LDL isolated from 13 normal patients and 29 hyperlipidemic patients were modified by CuSO_4.The amount of malondialdehyde(MDA) was measured by TBARS.The amount of lysophosphatidylcholine(LPC) was determined by the Bartlett.Endothelium-dependent relaxation was produced by acetylcholine.Results After LDL from normal and hyperlipidemic patients were modified by CuSO_4,the amount of MDA was increased(P
ABSTRACT
【Objective】To observe the effect of fucoidan on lipid metabolism enzyme in hyperlipidemia mice.【Methods】Sixty healthy male SD rats were randomized into 6 groups: normal group,model group,gynostemma pentaphyllum(GP,30 mg/kg) group and low-,moderate-and high-dose fucoidan groups(0.1,0.2 and 0.4 g?kg-1 respectively).Except the normal group,the rats in other groups received high fat emulsion(10 mL?kg-1) by gavage to establish hyperlipidemia models.The activities of lipoprotein lipase(LPL),hepatic lipase(HL) and lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase(LCAT) in different groups were compared.【Results】Serum activities of LPL,HL and LCAT as well as hepatic activities of LPL and HL were increased in low-and moderate-dose fucoidan groups.【Conclusion】Fucoidan decreases the serum triglyceride levels by activating the serum and hepatic LPL and HL activities,and decreases serum cholesterol level by activating hepatic LCAT activity.
