RÉSUMÉ
Aim Based on the effect of total flavonoids extracted from Polygonum perfoliatum L.(TFP) against dimethylnitrosamine(DMN)-induced hepatic fibrosis(HF), to investigate the anti-fibrotic mechanism of TFP.Methods Ninety SD rats were divided into normal group, model group, colchicines(0.1 mg·kg-1) group, and TFP(200, 100, 50 mg·kg-1) group.Except the rats of normal group, other rats were injected intraperitoneally with volume fraction 0.5% DMN solution(2 mL·kg-1) for eight weeks, once every two days.From the first day of modeling, each administration group was given the corresponding dose of drugs to intervene, and the normal group and model group were given an equal volume of solvent, once a day.At the end of the eighth week, the blood and liver tissues were collected.Liver tissue was taken at a fixed position, and the degree of liver tissue was observed by HE staining.The contents of serum ALT, AST, SOD and MDA were measured using colorimetric method;the levels of serum HA, LN, PCⅢand Ⅳ-C were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA);the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in liver tissues were detected by ELISA;the expression of α-SMA, TGF-β1, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the model group, TFP(200, 100, 50 mg·kg-1) could improve the liver tissue lesions, reduce the expression of ALT, AST, HA, LN, PCⅢ, IV-C and MDA, increase SOD activity, reduce the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, and inhibit the expression of α-SMA, TGF-β1, JAK2, STAT3, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3.Conclusion TFP could inhibit DMN-induced HF of rats, which may be involved with antioxidant and inhibiting expression of TGF-β1, JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and inflammatory response.
RÉSUMÉ
Aim To study the effects of Dicliptera chinensis polysaccharide(DCP)on alcoholic fatty liver disease(AFLD)in rats based on anti-inflammation and antioxidation.Methods 60 rats were randomly divid-ed into six groups:control group,model group,silybin group and DCP of high,medium and low dose groups. The control group was fed with normal diet, other groups were fed with high sugar and high fat diet,and given 5% alcohol 5 mL·kg-1 by gavage.The alcohol consistency increased 5%every week until AFLD mod-els in rats were made after 7 weeks.Except control group,other groups were fed with high sugar and high fat diet,and given 35% alcohol 5 mL · kg-1 and DCP.All rats were killed after five weeks,and blood and liver tissues were collected.The activity of alanine aminotransaminase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST ), alkaline phosphatase (AKP ), triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC ),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and high-density lipoprotein cho-lesterol(HDL-C)in serum were detected by using bio-chemical method. The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA),superoxide dismutase (SOD),reduced gluta-thione(GSH)in liver tissues were detected.The con-tents of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6 (IL-6 )and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1 ) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent as-say(ELISA)in liver tissues.The liver tissues were ob-tained and histologic analysis was done through HE. Results DCP reduced the activity or content of ALT, AST,AKP,TG,TC,LDL-C,HDL-C,TNF-α,IL-6, TGF-β1 in serum and liver tissues of rats(P<0.05 ), and increased the activity or content of HDL-C,SOD and GSH (P<0.05 ).DCP could remarkably inhibit the NF-κB expression in liver tissues(P<0.01 ).The pathological examination indicated that DCP could ob-viously alleviate the inflammation and fat denaturation of the liver cells.Conclusion DCP can inhibit the de-velopment of AFLD.The mechanism may be related to antioxidation,free radical scavenging, inhibition of lipidperoxidation,anti-inflammation,and inhibition of the TGF-β1 and NF-κB expression.
