Abstract
In order to investigate the protective effect of Samduhaejungtang-gamibang on the liver injury of rats induced by $CCl_4$ and d-galactosamine, the serum transaminase(GOT& GPT) alkaline phosphatase(ALP), lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) for enzyme activities and triglyceride, total bilirubin amounts for serum component were measured. All animals were divided into 4 groups, those were normal group(untreated), control group(treated with vehicle 0.9% Saline solution), sample Ⅰ group(1500mg/kg administrated), sample Ⅱ group(3000mg/kg administrated). The results were as follows: 1. The inhibitory effects of the serum GOT activities in rats induced by $CCl_4$ were noted in sample Ⅱ group(p<0.01). In serum GPT activities, sample Ⅱ group(p<0.05) only showed the inhibitory effects. 2. The inhibitory effects of the serum ALP activities in rats induced by $CCl_4$ were noted in sample Ⅱ group(p<0.01) 3. The inhibitory effects of the serum LPH activities in rats induced by $CCl_4$ were noted in sample Ⅱ group, but it is not recognized statistically. 4. The increases effects of the serum triglyceride content level in rats induced by $CCl_4$ were inhibited in both sample Ⅰ group(p<0.05) and sample Ⅱ group(p<0.01) 5. The increases effects of the serum total bilirubin content level in rats induced by $CCl_4$ were inhibited in sample Ⅱ group(p<0.05) 6. The inhibitory effects of the serum GOT, GPT activities in rats induced by d-galactosamine were noted in sample Ⅱ group (p<0.001), but sample Ⅰ group was not recognized. 7. The signiticantly inhibitory effects of in the serum LDH activities in rats induced by d-galactosamine were noted in both sample Ⅰ group(p<0.05) and sample Ⅱ group (p<0.001) 8. The increases of the serum ALP content level in rats induced by d-galactosamine were inhibited in sample Ⅱ group(p<0.05) 9. The increases of the serum total bilirubin content level in rats induced d-galactosamine were inhibited in sample Ⅱgroup(p<0.05) According to the above results, it is considered that Samduhaejungtang-gamibang has protective effect against liver injury in rats induced by $CCl_4$ and d-galactosamine. So it is required to study about the actions of mutual relation of medicines and patho-mechanism by experiment.
