Abstract

Objectives : This study was performed to compare the preventive effect of water extracts from Injinho-tang and Haninjinho-tang on hyperlipidemia and liver damage induced by alcohol. Methods : Except for the normal group, we fed rat on 25% alcohol for 55 days. And each extract was administrated for the same period. We measured the serum component in rat's blood, body weight and weight of liver. Results : 1. At first, we observed effects of Injinho-tang and Haninjinho-tang on hyperlipidemia induced by alcohol. Injinho-tang group showed significant decrease of triglyceride, body weight in comparison with those of the control group. Haninjinho-tang group showed significant decrease of total cholesterol, triglyceride in comparison with those of the control group. I 2. At second, we observed effects of Injinho-tang and Haninjinho-tang on liver damage induced by alcohol. lnjinho-tang group showed significant decrease of AST (aspartate aminotransferase), ALT (alanine aminotransferase), ALP (alkaline phosphatase), liver weight in comparison with those of the control group. Haninjinho-tang group showed significant decrease of AST (aspartate aminotransferase), ALT (alanine aminotransferase) in comparison with those of the control group. Conclusion : Reviewing these experimental results, it appears that water extracts from Injinho-tang and Haninjinho-tang have pharmaceutical preventive efficacy on hyperlipidemia and liver damage induced by alcohol. Therefore further additional study should be conducted to elucidate in depth the pharmaceutical efficacy of these.
