Obesity, a chronic metabolic condition, is an increase in fat mass and blood lipid levels mainly causing atherosclerosis and hypertension, which further lead to cardiovascular complications. The objective of the study was to investigate the crude extract of (CE.Cr) for its potential against high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity and its related complications. Hyperlipidemia was induced in Wistar albino rats with HFD (1% cholesterol + 0.5% cholic acid) for 28 days. Treatment groups were administered with different doses of CE.Cr (100, 300 and 500 mg/Kg, p.o.) and the standard group received atorvastatin. At the end of study, sera were analyzed for biochemical markers and the aorta was dissected for microscopic examination. Antioxidant potential was evaluated and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis was performed. The hypotensive potential of CE.Cr was evaluated through an invasive technique. HPLC analysis of CE.Cr showed the presence of chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, apigenin and naringenin. Histological examination of the aorta section showed anti-atherosclerotic effects which were also evident from decrease in serum total cholesterol, triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins levels. CE.Cr decreased mean arterial blood pressure and evoked significant hypotensive effects. The crude extract of showed anti-obesity, antihypertensive, anti-atherosclerotic and antioxidant potential.
肥胖是一种慢性代谢性疾病,是脂肪量和血脂水平增加,主要导致动脉粥样硬化和高血压,进而引发心血管并发症。本研究的目的是研究[提取物名称]的粗提物(CE.Cr)对高脂饮食(HFD)诱导的肥胖及其相关并发症的潜在作用。用含1%胆固醇+0.5%胆酸的高脂饮食诱导Wistar白化大鼠发生高脂血症28天。治疗组给予不同剂量的CE.Cr(100、300和500毫克/千克,口服),标准组给予阿托伐他汀。在研究结束时,分析血清中的生化标志物,并解剖主动脉进行显微镜检查。评估抗氧化潜力并进行高效液相色谱(HPLC)分析。通过侵入性技术评估CE.Cr的降压潜力。CE.Cr的HPLC分析显示存在绿原酸、咖啡酸、芹菜素和柚皮素。主动脉切片的组织学检查显示出抗动脉粥样硬化作用,血清总胆固醇、甘油三酯和低密度脂蛋白水平降低也证明了这一点。CE.Cr降低了平均动脉血压并产生了显著的降压作用。[提取物名称]的粗提物显示出抗肥胖、抗高血压、抗动脉粥样硬化和抗氧化潜力。
