摘要
背景:传统中医药对慢性乙型肝炎有较好的治疗效果,但其作用机制尚不完全清楚。目的:观察苦参素联合复方丹参对慢性乙型肝炎患者肝纤维化血清学指标、肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α和瘦素水平的影响。方法:慢性乙型肝炎后肝纤维化患者60例,随机分为两组。试验组30例,予苦参素联合复方丹参片治疗,对照组30例,予水飞蓟素片治疗,疗程均为6个月。测定两组患者治疗前后肝纤维化血清学指标:透明质酸(HA)、Ⅳ型胶原(Ⅳ-C)和层黏蛋白(LN)以及TNF-α、瘦素水平。结果:与治疗前比较,治疗后试验组血清HA、Ⅳ-C和LN水平均明显下降,其中尤以HA、Ⅳ-C下降显著(P<0.01),且TNF-α和瘦素水平亦有显著下降(P<0.01);对照组治疗前后肝纤维化指标、TNF-α和瘦素水平无明显变化(P>0.05)。治疗后试验组各项肝纤维化血清学指标和TNF-α、瘦素水平均显著低于对照组(P<0.05)。结论:苦参素联合复方丹参具有明显的抗乙型肝炎后肝纤维化的作用,且用药安全,其作用机制可能与下调TNF-α和瘦素表达有关。
Background: The use of Chinese traditional medicine had demonstrated beneficial effect on the course of chronic hepatitis B, but its mechanism is not fully known. Aims: To observe the effect of oxymatrine combined with compound Salvia miltiorrhiza on serological markers of liver fibrosis, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-ct and leptin levels in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Methods: Sixty patients with chronic hepatitis B and liver fibrosis were randomly divided into two groups, each 30 in number. Patients in the treated group (n=30) received oxymatrine combined with compound Salvia miltiorrhiza, and the control group (n=30) received silymafin, both for 6 months. Serological markers of liver fibrosis as hyaluronic acid (HA), type Ⅳ collagen (Ⅳ-C), laminin (LN) and levels of TNF-α and leptin were determined before and after treatment. Results: In the treated group, levels of HA, Ⅳ-C and LN decreased significantly after treatment, in particular, the HA and Ⅳ-C (P〈0.01); The TNF-α and leptin levels also decreased significantly after treatment (P〈0.01). Whereas in the control group, changes of serological markers of liver fibrosis were not significant (P〉0.05), that of TNF-α and leptin levels was also insignificant. Comparing the two groups, the serological markers of liver fibrosis, TNF-α and leptin levels in the treated group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P〈0.05). Conclusions: Oxymatrine combined with compound Salvia mihiorrhiza have obvious ameliorating effect on liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B and the mechanism involved might be related to the down-regulation of TNF-α and leptin levels.
