ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the protective effect of silybin-phosphatidylcholine compound(SPC) on acute liver damage induced by alpha-naphthylisothiocyanate(ANIT) in mice.Methods Forty mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal group,model group,SPCⅠgroup,SPCⅡgroup.Intragastric administration of 0.5% carboxymethylcelluloes-Na(CMC-Na) suspension were given to the normal and model group,and 2 quantities of SPC suspension(150 and 300 mg/kg) were respectively given to SPCⅠ and SPC Ⅱ groups for 1 week.At 12 h after last administration of SPC,all of groups besides normal were given ANIT(dissolved in peanut oil,(60 mg/kg)) by lavage and the normal group just only were given peanute oil by the same volume and same way.After 16 h of ANIT administration,the levels of serum alanine transferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),serum total bilirubin(TB),malondialdehyde(MDA) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) were detected by biochemical method.Results Serum levels of ALT,AST,TB and MDA markedly increased after ANIT was administered via intragastric tube,and the level of serum SOD also decrease.SPC could obviously inhibit the alteration of the activities of serum ALT,AST,TB,MDA and SOD(P
