RESUMO
AIM: To study the protective effect of medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe on endothelial cells which were damaged by H2O2. METHODS: The effects of medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe on cell viability, concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA), NO, endothelin-1 (ET-1) and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were determined for human umbilical vein endothelial cells (ECV304) damaged by H2O2. RESULTS: The medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe significantly improved the structural change of ECV304 cells damaged by H2O2, suppressed the production of MDA and the content of ET-1, increased activity of SOD and the rate of animate cells, and promoted secretion of NO. CONCLUSION: The medicinal serum of Jiangtang compound recipe can resist the injury of ECV304 caused by H2O2, playing a role in the protective effect.
RESUMO
AIM:To study the effect of antioxidation in subacute aging model mice with Jiangtang compound recipe which composed of kudzuvine root, heartleaf houttuynia herb and Evonymus alatas. METHODS: By using the D-galactose-induced aging mice, the body weight,the content of malondialdehyde (MDA),the activities of superoxide dismutarse(SOD) and glutothine peroxidase(GSH-Px) in serum and tissues were determined. RESULTS:To the model mice, Jiangtang compound recipe (14, 7 g/kg, i.g.) reduced the content of MDA, enhanced the activities of SOD and GSH-Px in serum and tissuses, inhibited the decrease of body weight. CONCLUSION: Jiangtang compound recipe shows a remarkable anti-oxidative effect on the D-galactose-induced aging mice.
