Abstract

Objective:To study the antioxidant effect of extract solution from bamboo leaves in mice and in rats.Methods:The old mice and aged rats induced by D-galactose were treated with extract solution of bamboo leaves through oral gavage, and to determine the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) in blood and the contents of lipofuscin(LF),malondialdehyde(MDA) and SOD in brain and heart by biochemical methods.Results:The extract solution of bamboo leaves could significantly increase the activities of SOD and GSH-Px in blood and the activities of SOD in brain and heart in mice and rats,and obviously reduce the contents of LF and MDA in tissues.Conclusion:The extract solution of bamboo leaves have obviously antioxidant effects.The mechanisms maybe associated with increasing the activities of antioxidation enzymes and preventing lipidperoxidation in tissues.
