Effect of Ligustrazini and Propofol on Hepatocellular Energy Metabolism in the Reperfusion Injury after Hepatic Ischemia in Rabbits / 中国中医药信息杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effect of ligustrazini (LGT) and propofol (PRO) on hepatocellular energy metabolism in the reperfusion injury after hepatic ischemia in rabbits and its mechanism. Methods The rabbits were randomly divided into four groups (n=10 in each), hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (HIR) group, HIR+LGT group (B), HIR+PRO group (C) and HIR+ LGT+PRO group (D). The contents of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), total adenylic acid number (TAN), energy charge (EC), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitric oxide products (NO2-/NO3-) in the liver tissue were measured at 45 minutes after reperfusion. Results The contents of ATP, NO and SOD activity of the liver tissue in B, C, D groups were higher than those in HIR group (P
