摘要
The present study was carried out to clarify whether tectorigenin and tectoridin isolated from the rhizomes ofBelamcanda chinensis (Iridaceae) inhibit hepatic damage induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCI+4)-intoxication in rats by the experimental methodsin vitro andin vivo. Tectorigenin and tectoridin exhibited a significant decrease in serum transaminase activities elevated by hepatic damage induced by CCI4-intoxication in rats, as well as in a lipid peroxidation causing a significant decrease in malondialdehyde (MDA) production by thiobarbituric acid (TBA)-reactant assay. Both compounds also showed strong increase in the antioxidant enzymes such as hepatic cytosolic superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px) activities in CCI4-intoxicated rats. These results suggested that tectorigenin and tectoridin isolated from the rhizomes ofB. chinensis possess not only the antioxidative, but also the hepatoprotective activities in CCI4-intoxicated rats.
