This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of Teucrium polium (TP) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl) induced spleen, erythrocyte's oxidative stress, and genotoxicity in rats. TP was found to contain large amounts of polyphenols (150 mg GAE/G of dry plant) and flavonoids (60 mg QE/g of quercetin dry plant). The CCl (0.5 ml/kg) treated rats exhibited significant reductions in serum vitamin A (VA), vitamin E (VE) and total antioxidant status (TAS). Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and conjugated dienes (CD) were significantly high in the CCl group compared to controls. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were significantly decreased in CCl rats. Cytogenetic trials revealed remarkable increases in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations (CAs) and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) following CCl administration. Pretreatment with TP prevented damages caused by CCl. Spleen characterised by necrosis was detected in CCl as compared to controls. Pretreatment with TP considerably decreased the perturbation.
本研究旨在探讨诸葛菜(TP)对四氯化碳(CCl)诱导的大鼠脾脏、红细胞氧化应激和遗传毒性的保护作用。研究发现,TP 含有大量的多酚(150mgGAE/g 干植物)和类黄酮(60mgQE/g 槲皮素干植物)。CCl(0.5ml/kg)处理的大鼠血清维生素 A(VA)、维生素 E(VE)和总抗氧化状态(TAS)显著降低。与对照组相比,CCl 组的硫代巴比妥酸反应物质(TBARS)和共轭二烯(CD)显著升高。超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPx)在 CCl 大鼠中显著降低。细胞遗传学试验表明,CCl 给药后染色体畸变(CAs)和姐妹染色单体交换(SCE)的频率显著增加。TP 预处理可预防 CCl 引起的损伤。与对照组相比,CCl 组的脾脏出现坏死。TP 的预处理大大减少了这种干扰。
