Abstract
[Objective] To study the antioxidant effects of LC on D-galactose induced aging mice. [Method] 50 mice were randomly divided into blank control group, D-galactose model group, LC treatment groups at three levels of 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 g/(kg·d), a total of 5 groups. Using the subacute D-galactose induced aging models, the mice were killed after 6 weeks of experiment and the activity of Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and Malondialdehyde (MDA) content in plasma, brain and liver tissue were determined. [Result] The activity of SOD and GSH-Px in plasma, brain and liver tissue were significantly increased after treated with LC, while the content of MDA were decreased with a dose-dependent manner. [Conclusion] LC had anti-aging effects in mice, and the mechanism may be correlated with the antioxidation.
