Effects of estrogen on blood lipids and the expression of serum leptin and resistin in ovariectomized female SD rats
Objective:To explore the effects of ovariectomy(OVX)and estrogen replace treatment on total cholesterol
LDL
HDL
triglycerides
serum leptin and resist levels.Methods:Female SD rats(12 weeks)were divided into three groups: control Sham
OVX and OVX treated with estrogen(OVX +E2)(n=7
each group).10 days post operating
rats had been treated with estradiol benzoate(0.2 mg ip per day)(OVX + E2)and vehicle(Sham and OVX rats)for 30 days respectively.Total cholesterol
LDL
HDL
triglycerides were analyzed by chemistry analyzer
and ELISA kits were employed to analyze serum leptin and resistin levels.Results:Body mass was increased by OVX and significantly decreased by estrogen treatment.Total cholesterol and LDL level were upregulated after OVX.Estrogen treatment increase triglyceride level
while decreased total cholesterol and LDL level of OVX rats.No affect was found in serum leptin and resistin level of OVX or estrogen treatment groups.Conclusion:OVX led to body mass increase and lipid metabolism disturbance.Treated with E2
the body mass of the ovariectomized rats were decreased and the disturbance of lipid metabolism was partially improved.OVX and estrogen replacement can not affect serum leptin and resistin levels.
