摘要
目的:观察白背叶根体内抗鸭乙型肝炎病毒(duck hepatitis B virus,D-HBV)的作用。方法:采用PCR技术筛选D-HBV阳性3日龄广州麻鸭40只。将麻鸭随机分为空白对照组,白背叶根高、中、低剂量组和拉米夫定组,分别给予相应药物进行干预。用药前、用药第7、14、21天及停药第7天,取各组麻鸭静脉血,采用实时定量荧光PCR技术检测血清D-HBV DNA含量;治疗前后取肝脏组织进行病理组织学观察。结果:拉米夫定组于用药后,血清病毒水平迅速降低,但停药后存在反跳现象。白背叶根高、中剂量组分别于治疗第14、21天其血清病毒含量明显下降,低剂量组治疗期间未见明显的抑制病毒作用。停药后,白背叶根高、中剂量组与空白对照组比较仍表现出一定的病毒抑制作用。白背叶根高剂量组对肝脏炎症的改善作用较拉米夫定组明显。结论:白背叶根有抑制体内D-HBV复制的作用,其作用大小与剂量及用药时间相关;其治疗作用较拉米夫定弱,但作用维持时间长,且用药较为安全。
Objective: To evaluate the inhibiting effects of the root of Mallotus apelta (Lour.) Muell.-Arg. on duck hepatitis B virus (D-HBV) in vivo. Methods: Forty nestling ducks with congenitally infection of D-HBV detected by PCR were randomly divided into five groups: untreated group, lamivudine-treated group, and high-, medium- and low-dose root of Mallotus apelta-treated groups. The ducks in the lamivudine-treated group were fed lamivudine with a dose of 50 mg/kg once. Ducks in the three-dose Mallotus apelta-treated groups were treated with different doses of decoction of this herbal medicine for 21 days respectively. The serum content of D-HBV DNA was determined by quantitative real-time PCR technique before and 7 days after the treatment, and on the 7th, 14th and 21st day of the treatment. Liver biopsy was also executed before and after the treatment to observe the histopathological changes. Results: Lamivudine showed a rapid inhibiting effect on D-HBV DNA, but this effect didn't last long, and the serum level of D-HBV DNA increased again after treatment. The serum level of D-HBV DNA dropped markedly in the high- and medium-dose Mallotus apelta-treated groups on the 14th and 21st day. Low-dose Mallotus apelta revealed no obvious inhibiting effect on D-HBV. After treatment, the inhibiting effect in the root of Mallotus apelta-treated group continued as compared with that in the untreated group. The histopathological changes of liver tissues showed that the inflammation in the high-dose root of Mallotus apelta-treated group was weakened as compared with that in the lamivudine-treated group. Conclusion: The root of Mallotus apelta has therapeutic effect on D-HBV. It can restrain the duplication of D-HBV in vivo. Although this effect is weaker than that of lamivudine, it continues longer. Thus this herbal medicine is an effective, safe and economical drug for hepatitis B.
