摘要
To the Editor:Lycium ruthenicum(L.ruthenicum)Murray contains abundant anthocyanins.The purpose of the present research was to investigate the protective effect of L.ruthenicum extract supplementation on the damage from exhaustive exercise in rats which were treated for seven days before the exhaustive exercise.Exhaustive exercise induced an increase of Serum nitrate(NO)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels,but supplementation of L.ruthenicum extract reduced them significantly(P<0.05).Interleukin(IL)-1 and IL-6 were also significantly reduced by L.ruthenicum as compared to the control(P<0.05).Supplementation with L.ruthenicum extract also decreased the creatine kinase isoenzyme MB(CK-MB)generation significantly and ameliorated the myocardial histopathology.
