The effect of Astragalus injection on CCl4-ethanol-induced rat hepatic fibrosis
Objective:To investigate the inhibitive effect of Astragalus injection on CCl 4-ethanol-induced hepatic fibrosis.Methods:40% CCl 4 and 5% ethanol were used to induce hepatic fibrosis.Astragalus injection group:Astragalus injection(800mg/kg·d) was administered during formation of inducing hepatic fibrosis.Model control group only received saline.After 7 weeks
all groups were compared in terms of serum examinations(HA
LN) and liver tissue examinations(change of histology
degree of hepatic fibrosis
level of SOD and MDA
and immunohistochemistry of LN).Results:Compared with model control group
treatment of rats with Astragalus injection remarkably decreased serum HA and LN levels( P <0.05) and liver MDA level( P <0.01)
but increased the activity of liver SOD( P <0.01).Meanwhile
microscopic studies revealed that the livers of rats receiving Astragalus injection showed decrease in fibrosis formation and in expression of LN.Conclusion:Astragalus injection has inhibitive effect on experimental hepatic fibrosis formation.The mechanism is possibly associated with the action of antioxidant and the expression of decreasing LN.
