ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of astragalosideⅣ pretreatment against liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice.MethodsSixty male C57BL/6 mice were randomized into four groups (15 mice in each group):group A:sham surgery with saline injection,group B:sham surgery with astragalosideⅣ injection,group C:I/R group with saline injection,group D:I/R and astragalosideⅣ injection.Mice were pretreated by daily intraperitoneal injection of saline or astragalosideⅣ (24 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) for one week.The mouse partial liver model of I/R injury was established,and samples were collected at the 24 h after the I/R injury.Serum ALT and AST levels were determined,the histologic changes were observed by H&E staining under the light microscopy,whereas the nuclear factor (NF)-κB was assessed with Western blotting.Serum IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ResultsSerum ALT and AST levels significantly decreased and the histological damage was significantly alleviated in astragalosideⅣ treated I/R group as compared with saline I/R group [ AST:C:(4290± 292) U/L vs.D:(2373± 416) U/L t =0.844 ; ALT:C:(4146±500) U/L vs.D:(2318±289) U/L t =7.08 P <0.05].In comparison with group 3,astragalosideⅣ reduced NF-κB nuclear expression.ELISA showed astragalosideⅣ significantly inhibit the levels of IL-1 β,IL-6,and TNF-α in the serum (IL-1β:t =10.04;IL-6:t =6.281;TNF-α:t =6.817; P <0.05).ConclusionsPretreatment with astragaloside Ⅳ effectively protect against liver ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice.
