EFFECT OF BLACK RICE ANTHOCYANIN ON BIOCHEMICAL INDICATORS IN BLOOD AND MACROPHAGES OF RATS / 营养学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the immunomodulatory effect of black rice anthocyanin(BA) on biochemical indicators in blood and macrophages in rats.Method Twenty four female SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groupscontrol group,BA low,middle and high-dose groups(BAL 25;BAM 50;BAH 100 mg/kg bw).The control group was treated with normal saline,while BA groups were i.g.administered with defferent doses for 30 d.The blood biochemical indicators were detected by automatic biochemistry analyzer.The activities of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),acid phosphatase(ACP),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and maleic dialdehyde(MDA) contents in peritoneal macrophage(PM) and alveolar macrophage(AM) were determined by biochemical methods.The ability of macrophages to phagocytose neutral red was measured by colorimetric method.Results The levels of urea nitrogen(UN),uric acid(UA),triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC) and low density lipoprotein(LDL) in blood were reduced.The activities of ACP,LDH in PM were increased.and the activities of SOD in PM and AM were increased whereas MDA was reduced.The ability of PM and AM to phagocytose neutral red was strengthened significantly.Conclusion BA shows significant immunomodulatory effection blood biochemical indicators and macrophages in rats.
