[Research on active extracts of Dicliptera chinensis on liver protection].
OBJECTIVE
To search pharmacody namic active extracts of Dicliptera chinensis for protecting liver.


METHODS
Rats cute liver injury model was induced by CCl4 to screen the liver protection of four different fraction extracted from an ethanol extract of D. chinensis.


RESULTS
The n-butanol fraction and water fraction can prevent the increase of the ALT, AST and MDA (P < 0.01, P < 0. 05), and increase the SOD compared to the normal groups (P < 0.05).


CONCLUSIONS
The results show that the pharmacody namic active extracts of D. chinensis are the n-butanol and water fractions.
