Abstract

|
The antilipidperoxidative and hepatopreventive effects of Houttuynia cordata extract(HCE) were investigated at the level of liver homogenates and serum of SD rats intoxicated EtOH(3g/kg for 3days). We measured MDA(malondialdehyde) in the live. homogenate, AST(1-aspartate-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase) and ALT( 1-alanine-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferse) in the serum. The analysis of the measurement indicated that HCE reduced MDA, ALT and AST significantly and their reduction was in relation to dose dependence. In rat liver homogenate intoxicated with EtOH, HCE treatment group inhibited lipidperoxidation by 50-75%. In rat serum intoxicated EtOH, HCE inhibited AST and ALT by 40-70%.
