Abstract:Objective: To study the hepatoprotectwe effect of the aerial parts and the roots of G.scabra on cute liver injury models. Method: Acute liver injury models were induced by CCl4, TAA and D-GlanN in mice, and the levels of serum enzyme ALT, AST and AKP on acute liver injury mice with extracts of the aerial parts and the roots of G. scabra were determined. Result: Different dosages of the aerial part extract could significantly reduce the levels of serum enzyme ALT, AST and AKP (P< 0.05) on CCl4 and TAA model mice, but the serum enzymes reduction of D-GlanN model mice was not remarkably. Conclusion: The methanolic extracts of the aerial parts and the roots of G. scabra both have certain hepatoprote-ctive effects on acute liver injury models, and so the aerial parts of G.scabra can be used as the suc-cedaneumm of G. scabra roots.
