- 9 - 中国科技论文在线and superoxide anion scavenging activities) of trans-tiliroside have previously been reported [19,34]. In this paper, we further explored the antioxidant effect in diabetic rats. The treatment with trans-tiliroside (1.2 and 0.3 mg/kg) for 12 weeks could efficiently restored the depleted status of the antioxidant enzymes SOD and lowered MDA levels on STZ-diabetic rats. The result illustrated that the compound can protect against STZ-diabetic oxidant tissue damage and this could be due to the presence of flavnoid structure. Our study together with existing reports thus suggests that trans-tiliroside possesses in vivo antioxidant property in diabetic condition.
4 Conclusions
In summary, trans-tiliroside as a principal compound from Potentilla chinesis exert a benefcial effects on hyperlipidemia due to diabetes and show a significant anti-hyperglycemic, anti-hyperlipidemic, antioxidant activity in diabetic animals. Histological examination also showed the trans-tiliroside evidently reduced the injuries of pancreas induced by streptozotocin. This has clinical implications, that the trans-tiliroside, if used as an anti-hyperglycemic agent, may also reverse dyslipidemia associated with diabetes, and prevent the coronary risks which are very prevalent in diabetic patients. Further pharmacological investigation are in progress to expect this compound can be used as a drug.
