简介:目的:观察针刺对高脂血症小鼠的疗效及作用机制。方法:将雄性清洁级昆明小鼠120只,随机分为正常组、模型组各40只,针刺组和药物组各20只。除正常组外采用高脂饮食饲料喂养制备高脂血症小鼠模型。造模第15天检测正常及造模动物各20只的血清总胆固醇(TC)、甘油三酯(TG)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C);同时针刺组开始电针双侧"丰隆""曲池""三阴交"穴10min,每日1次,连续干预10d;药物组灌服辛伐他汀,每日1次,连续10d。治疗结束后检测各组血清TC、TG、LDL-C、HDL-C及丙二醛(MDA)、一氧化氮(NO)、内皮素(ET)含量和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活力。结果:第15天,模型组小鼠血清TG、TC、LDL-C含量均高于正常组(P〈0.05),HDL-C含量低于正常组(P〈0.01)。治疗10d后,针刺组、药物组小鼠血清TG、TC、LDL-C以及MDA、ET含量均低于模型组,血清HDL-C、NO含量以及SOD活力高于模型组(P〈0.05,P〈0.01),且针刺组的改善作用优于药物组(P〈0.05,P〈0.01)。结论:针刺治疗能够调节高脂血症小鼠血脂代谢,抵抗脂质过氧化,并具有保护血管内皮功能的作用。
