The present study was conducted to determine the effects of Ligustrum delavayanum Hariot. (Oleaceae) on cholesterol levels and the outcome of myocardial reperfusion injury in diabetic-hypercholesterolaemic rats. Per orally daily administration of a Ligustrum infusion (1000mg/kg, calculated on the dry plant material) to the rats with induced diabetes and hypercholesterolaemia significantly reduced the liver total cholesterol content. Similarly, increased severity of reperfusion arrhythmias in the double-diseased rats was diminished upon Ligustrum-treatment. These results suggest a potential use of Ligustrum in the prevention/therapy of risk factors and coronary heart disease itself.
本研究旨在探讨女贞子(木樨科)对糖尿病高脂血症大鼠胆固醇水平和心肌再灌注损伤结果的影响。每日经口给予糖尿病和高脂血症大鼠女贞子煎剂(1000mg/kg,按干植物材料计算)可显著降低肝脏总胆固醇含量。同样,女贞子治疗可减轻双病变大鼠再灌注心律失常的严重程度。这些结果表明女贞子可能具有预防/治疗危险因素和冠心病本身的作用。
