Experimental Study of the Effect of Injinsaryungsan and Sosihotang on cholestatic liver injury induced by $ANIT({\alpha}-naphtylisothiocyanate)$

인진사령산(茵陳四岺散)과 소시호탕(小柴胡湯)이 ANIT 로 유발(誘發)된 담즙울체성(膽汁鬱滯性) 간장애(肝障碍)에 미치는 영향(影響)

In an attempt to evaluate the effect of high and low concentration of Injinsaryungsan and high and low concentration of Sosihotang on cholestatic liver injery induced by $ANIT({\alpha}-naphthylisothiocyanate)$, biochemical changes in serum transaminase(GOT, GPT), alkaline phosphate, lactate dehydrogenase, total cholesterol, triglyceride, total-bilirubine were studied and the following results were obtained. 1. High concentration of Injinsaryungsan(2.2g／Kg) inhibited significantly the activity increases of GOT, GPT, ALP, LDH, TC, TG, T-Bilirubine induced by $ANIT({\alpha}-naphthylisothiocyanate)$. 2. Low concentration of Injinsaryungsan(1.1g／Kg) inhibited the activity increases of ALP, LDH, TC, TG with statistical significance, while inhibited the activity increase of GOT ,but with no statistical significance. 3. High concentration of Sosihotang(2.4g／Kg) inhibited the activity increases of LDH, TG, TC with statistical significance while inhibited the activity increases of GOT, GPT, ALP, T-bilirubine with no significance. 4. Low concentration of Sosihotang(1.2g／Kg) inhibited the activity increase of TG, while inhibited the activity increase of ALP, TC with no statistical sig-nificance, but didn't inhibite the activity increases of GOT, GPT, LDH, T-Bil. These results suggest that Injinsaryungsan has more significant effect on the liver injury induced by $ANIT({\alpha}-naphthylisothiocyanate)$ compared with Sosihotang and so can be applicable clinically to virus hepatitis and cholestatic liver injury. Further study will be required to evaluate the effect of Sosibotang on cholangitis and cholecystitis.
