ABSTRACT
Objective By observing the effect of Xiaoyuhuatan decoction on insulin resistance in rar with nonalchoholic fatty liver,the author made a reasearch into this herb'S machanism on cambating on nonalchoholic fatty liver.Methods The insulin resistance rat model was fed by high fat forage and Dongbaogantai control group was set up for the sake of comparion.We determined the contents of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),free fatty acid(FFA),fasting plasma glucose(FBG),fasting serum insulin(INS)in serum and the contents of TC,TG of liver tissue homogenate of each group,and the degree of hepatocytic steatosis.Results Xiaoyuhuatan decoction could obviously decrease the index of insulin resistance and improve insulin insensitive index.Lipid in blood serum and hepatic tissues were significantly decreased,liver fat cell denaturation was improved.Conclusion The thrapentic eftect of Xiaoyuhuatan Decoction on fatty liver is probably contribute tO this herb's mechanism of improving insulin resistance and increasing insulin insensitive.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To observe the effect of Xiaoyu Huatan Decoction on the nonalchoholic fatty liver tissue peroxisome preliferator-activated receptor?(PPAR?) expression. METHODS: The nonalchoholic fatty liver disease rat model was fed by high fat forage and the rats were divided into five groups: normal control group,model control group,high-dose of Xiaoyu Huatan Decoction group,low-dose of Xiaoyu Huatan Decoction group,Dongbao Gantai control group.Total RNA of liver was extracted,and the expression of PPAR?mRNA was analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR method.We determined the contents of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),free ratty acid(FFA) in serum and the TC,TG in liver tissue homogenate of each group,and the degree of hepatocytic steatosis. RESULTS: Expression of liver tissue PPAR? mRNA in the model group decreased significantly,lipid in blood serum and hepatic tissues increased significantly,liver fat cell greatly denaturalized.After the intervention of medicine,expression of liver tissue PPAR? mRNA of each treatment group increased significantly,lipid in blood serum and hepatic tissues decreased significantly,liver fat cell denaturation was improved. CONCLUSION: Xiaoyu Huatan Decoction can increase the expression of liver tissue PPAR?mRNA of rats,It is likely to be one of the important mechanism for treating fatty liver.
