Hepatoprotective Effect of Blue Honeysuckle on Rat Hypothyroidism

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study was to determine whether blue honeysuckle lyophilized concentrated powder (BH) has positive effects on hypothyroidism and related liver damage in propylthiouracil-induced Hypothyroidism. Levothyroxine (LT4)-treated group was administrated by intraperitoneal injection with LT4, while BH or Flos Lonicerae lyophilized aqueous extract (LF)-treated groups were orally administrated for 42 days which two weeks pri or to PTU injection. The changes in organ weight, serum AST & ALT, serum lipid level, liver defense system were measured and the histopathology of the liver was observed. The oral administrations of 125, 250, and 500 mg/kg of BH showed favorable effects compared to LF on hypothyroidism-related liver damages through the enhance antioxidant defense system.
