Abstract

|
This study was designed to investigate the hyperlipidemia-healing effect of water extract from Iksukangjiryung, it was performed on the hyperlipidemia of rats induced by Triton WR-1339 and high cholesterol diet. We prepared two types of hyperlipidemia model in rats induced by Triton WR-1339 and high cholesterol diet. The amount of total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, lipid peroxide, glutathione and the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) were measured. The water extract from Iksukangjiryung showed significant decreasing effects on total cholesterol, LDL- cholesterol, triglyceride, lipid peroxide in the both model. And it showed significant increasing effects on the activity of SOD in both model and amount of glutathione in Triton WR-1339 model. These results suggest that water extract from Iksukangjiryung has healing efficacy on hyperlipidemia induced by Triton WR-1339 and high cholesterol diet.
