초록
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the Platycodi radix powder (PRP) and Platycodi radix saponin(PRS) on the reduction of lipid status In rats fed on high fat diet for 6 weeks after which lipid contents were measured in liver. And also by carrying out the histological examination throughout light microscope to observe the effects of fat accumulation reduction. The results obtained from this study are as fellows. In the levels of total lipid in liver, PRS Group significantly decreased compared with Contred Group, but PRP Group was not significantly changed. The content of triglyceride was tended to be slightly decreased in the PRP and PRS groups compared to the control group, which was not significant. It was observed from photomicrographs of hepatic tissue in rats that the PRP and PRS groups inhibits the lipid accumulation induced by high fat diets.
