Abstract

Saururus chinensis Baill (Saururaceae) is a perennial plant that has been used for therapy of edema, jaundice and gonorrhea in Korean folk medicine. This study was carried out to investigate the inhibitory effects of Saururus chinensis Baill(SCB) on hepatoprotective effects in accutely Carbone Tetrachloride ($CCl_4$) treated rats. Saururus chinensis Baill (100 mg/kg) was administered into rats intraperitoneally for 2 weeks, after the injection of CCl4 (3.3 ml/kg). We dxamined the biochemical parameters by measuring the levels of Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Total cholesterol, Triglyceride (TG), HDL-cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol in serum and Malonedialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissue of rats. cholesterol was siginificantly elevated in $CCl_4$-treated abnormal group (CTA). The higher level of HDL-cholesterol was found is Saururus chinensis Baill and CCl4 administered group (SCT), which showed the lower levels of Total-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol. TG content in the SCT was decreased compared to CTA by 0.93 times. MDA content in the SCT was inhibited compared to CTA by 33.00%. These findings indicate that Saururus chinensis. Baill may have a protective effect against CCl4-treated hepatotoxicity in rats.

삼백초가 $CCl_4$ 투여로 유발된 rat의 지질대사에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위해 NCT, CTA, SCT군으로 각각 10마리씩 나누어 NCT군과 CTA군은 0.9% saline을 SCT군은 삼백초를 100 mg/kg이 되게 2주 동안 매일 복강내에 투여하였다. 15일째 $CCl_4$를 CTA군과 SCT군에 투여하였다. 희생시켜서 혈청과 간의 지질대사를 관찰한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 혈청 중의 AST와 ALT의 활성도에서 SCT군은 CTA군에 비교해서 각각 43.18%, 96.05% 억제되었다. 2. Total cholesterol에서 삼백초를 투여한 SCT군은 NCT군 비교해서 0.95배 증가하였으며, 혈청중의 HDL-cholesterol은 SST군이 CTA군과 비교해서 2.63배 증가하였고 90.00%로 억제되었다. LDL-cholesterol에서는 SCT군이 CTA군보다 0.73배 감소하였다. 3. 혈청중의 TG의 함량은 CTA군이 NCT군에 비해 1.53배 증가하였다. CTA군에 비해 SCT군은 0.93배 감소하였으며 19.00%로 억제되었다. 4. 간조직 중의 MDA량은 SCT군이 CTA군에 비해 0.85배 감소하였고, 33.00%의 억제율을 보였다.
